I'm gonna have to do the same thing. 10 00:00:40.039 --> 00:00:43.280 I'm already feeling it. It's that stretch. You know what 11 00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:46.880 it is? They turn the ac of in this joint, 12 00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:52.719 my lord, I mean it is whatever the Amazon room was. 13 00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:57.000 It's five degrees cold. It's the toxic Amazon for sure. 14 00:00:58.159 --> 00:01:01.560 On today's show, we got raw Robert Wells winning his 15 00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:04.200 first w SP gold bracelet.

James Carroll leads the way. 25 00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:39.879 In the Milli Maker, there are forty four players left. 26 00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:45.239 Massive shout out, massive, you will, you wrote it, You 27 00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:48.159 wrote that one.

Let's get 156 00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:16.439 down to the nitty gritty, Sir, Robert Wells three K 157 00:08:17.079 --> 00:08:20.399 Mini PPC winner. It's officially called the three K nine 158 00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:23.519 Game Mix. Yes, we call it the Mini PPC because 159 00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:26.360 that's what it should be called. Robert Wells tops a 160 00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:28.639 field of four hundred and nine entries to win two 161 00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:31.839 hundred and twenty eight thousand dollars, his largest career score 162 00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:37.120 and his first ever WSOP goal bracelet his first cash. 163 00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:40.720 This WSOP he cashed in all mixed game formats so far, 164 00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:45.080 not a ton of wsp cashes to date for Robert Wells. 165 00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:49.480 His first was in twenty twenty two. But you know, 166 00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:53.159 at least me you can give your thoughts on a 167 00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:56.679 second ten, but I felt like this was coming sooner 168 00:08:56.720 --> 00:08:58.840 rather than later. For Wells, definitely, we see him a 169 00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:01.360 lot in the Poker gro studio, specifically when it comes 170 00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:04.080 to the mixed game tournaments. He's a very good player. 171 00:09:04.159 --> 00:09:07.240 I think he's quickly become known within like the high 172 00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:09.320 stakes mixed game community. They have a lot of respect 173 00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:11.600 for him. And then when that sort of stuff happens, 174 00:09:11.759 --> 00:09:14.360 it just feels like, Yeah, this guy's got it. He's 175 00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:16.840 going to be winning soon and it's not going to 176 00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:19.039 take long. And it didn't take long for Robert Wells. 177 00:09:19.240 --> 00:09:22.039 It's twenty twenty five and he's got his first bracelet. 178 00:09:22.480 --> 00:09:24.440 What do you got to say? Who won this last? 179 00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:28.759 Yea Yuri, who is Robert Wells's best friend. Wow, really, 180 00:09:29.279 --> 00:09:30.720 that's why you was on the I was wondering why 181 00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:34.039 he talking about Yuri's at Aelefski aka Ury Martin's aka 182 00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:35.759 Uri nerd guy. 183 00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:38.120 They both came to the PG TAM mix game series, 184 00:09:38.240 --> 00:09:41.159 you know, in February, traveled together. I think they even 185 00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:44.960 stayed together. I think they're very close friends. They you know, 186 00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:46.559 share a lot of strategy together all that kind. 187 00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:49.279 So how they became friends because URI's Brazilian. 188 00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:54.039 Robert Wells ise Wales study groups online poker. You never 189 00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:56.159 know these days, right, But that's kind of cool. You know, 190 00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:59.159 Yuri was on the rail when when the final hand 191 00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:02.159 was another limit? Do sand I believe you know, Yuri 192 00:10:02.200 --> 00:10:06.559 actually was filming, you know, filming his friend, which is 193 00:10:06.600 --> 00:10:07.960 kind of cool because you know, if we went back 194 00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:10.159 last year, I bet you we would have seen Robert 195 00:10:10.200 --> 00:10:11.720 Wells on the rails sweating Yurie. 196 00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:13.039 So that's kind of a nice. 197 00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:16.000 Full circle moment for those two friends right there in 198 00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:18.519 what we would say is probably one of the you know, 199 00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:21.039 we know the fifty k PBC is the mixed game 200 00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:23.559 we talk about the ten K Horse Championship from a 201 00:10:23.639 --> 00:10:26.240 few weeks ago, a few days ago. This is probably 202 00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:28.720 up there top five mixed game titles you could win 203 00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:31.080 here at the World Series. And it's pretty cool to have, 204 00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:33.919 you know, two friends win back to back years. 205 00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:37.600 Yeah, this is a great tournament. Robert Wells defeated Thomas 206 00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:40.480 Taylor in heads up play hundred and fifty K for Taylor. 207 00:10:40.519 --> 00:10:44.840 Fu Wong got third, Anthony Robero got fourth, Nicholas Barth 208 00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:48.639 got fifth, David Bach the sixth place there, Jonathan Glenn 209 00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:53.240 Dinning seventh and Yuki Zoo aka rich Zoo got eighth place. 210 00:10:53.600 --> 00:10:57.120 Another runner up finish for Thomas Taylor this summer his 211 00:10:57.200 --> 00:10:59.759 eighth cash. This summer, he was second in the fifteen 212 00:10:59.799 --> 00:11:02.720 hund at All Our Horse. He also had a couple 213 00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:06.000 of close calls. Previously second in twenty twenty four in 214 00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:09.480 the one KPLO, he had two thirds in twenty twenty 215 00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:12.360 two fifteen hundred dollars Stud and the ten k stud 216 00:11:12.440 --> 00:11:15.080 High Low. So, you know, this was one of those 217 00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:18.159 heads up matches. When I got down to we Wells 218 00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:21.320 and Taylor, which you know sounds like a law firm, 219 00:11:21.679 --> 00:11:27.679 but just call Wells and Taylor, We'll solve everything. You know, 220 00:11:27.879 --> 00:11:30.000 it was like, okay, you know, finally one of these 221 00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:31.840 guys is going to get it. You know. Again, a 222 00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:34.080 little bit of heartbreak for either one getting this far 223 00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:37.000 and then falling short, but you know, both I think 224 00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:40.559 are deserving, not that anything is necessarily deserving in this game, 225 00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:44.320 but these guys are certainly good enough to own some bracelets. 226 00:11:44.360 --> 00:11:46.919 And it's it's it's good for Robert Wells that he 227 00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:49.960 got one. I would say, Thomas Taylor's is coming soon. 228 00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:52.240 You know, especially if he keeps knocking at the door 229 00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:54.679 this summer, we still have a ton of events left 230 00:11:54.679 --> 00:11:58.080 to go. This event was number fifty eight on the 231 00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:03.159 schedule of one hundred Gold Bracelet events, so very likely 232 00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:05.159 I would say that we have not heard the last 233 00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:07.480 of Thomas Taylor. So if you see his name in 234 00:12:07.519 --> 00:12:09.840 the headlines again, you see him making another final table, 235 00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:15.279 do not be surprised. Another first time Gold Bracelet winner. 236 00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:19.639 We got mister Darren Elias. Now this one's a little 237 00:12:19.679 --> 00:12:24.000 bit interesting. Oh, here we go, because he won it online. 238 00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:27.639 There's no asterisk here, buddy, No listen, I'm not saying that. 239 00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:31.159 I'm not saying, okay, there's an asterix. Okay, Now, if 240 00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:35.480 he asks Bucky Matthew Waltman, maybe there is, maybe there 241 00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:36.120 is an asterisk. 242 00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:37.879 He beats me and then says, I don't even care 243 00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:40.840 for this bracelet. I don't want it, and got my 244 00:12:40.840 --> 00:12:42.639 good friend Sean dabout They said you should give it 245 00:12:42.679 --> 00:12:45.759 to Tim Duckworth, he is more deserving. I agree, and 246 00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:47.440 consequence that really happen. 247 00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:48.440 Yeah, I banned. 248 00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:49.879 Bucky for two years from the podcast studio. 249 00:12:49.919 --> 00:12:53.519 He's out, So all right, Well, let's get this back 250 00:12:53.559 --> 00:12:55.840 to the topic at hand, which is Darren Elias one 251 00:12:55.919 --> 00:12:58.679 hundred and seventy thousand dollars win. He won ws AP 252 00:12:58.879 --> 00:13:01.799 dot Com event number one fourteen. The eight hundred and 253 00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:04.879 eighty eight dollars buying Nolan had houldhim Crazy Eights tournament 254 00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:08.480 eleven and eighty two entries. Darren Olias topped them all. 255 00:13:08.519 --> 00:13:10.720 He only fired one bullet in this one. And the 256 00:13:10.720 --> 00:13:13.720 reason why I say that it's interesting is because it 257 00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:16.759 feels like this would be such bigger news if he 258 00:13:16.840 --> 00:13:19.399 did it live. Yes, and it doesn't matter what the 259 00:13:19.440 --> 00:13:21.720 tournament is live. It just feels like it would have 260 00:13:21.720 --> 00:13:24.600 been much bigger news. The stuff that happens on WSOP 261 00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:28.519 dot com. It's not covered as much, partly because it's 262 00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:32.600 difficult to cover. You know. One thing is, obviously there's 263 00:13:32.919 --> 00:13:36.399 a barrier to everything with the fact that people are 264 00:13:36.440 --> 00:13:39.360 playing on screen names and you don't necessarily know who 265 00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:42.120 the real names are until a couple of days later 266 00:13:42.120 --> 00:13:45.919 when the results do come out, So there's that. Also, 267 00:13:45.960 --> 00:13:49.799 it's just you know, everything is more focused here. Now. 268 00:13:51.279 --> 00:13:54.720 We all got word of this because Darren tweeted out 269 00:13:54.759 --> 00:13:57.799 that he won it, right ig I mean, if he 270 00:13:57.840 --> 00:13:59.720 doesn't share it on his social media. Do we know? 271 00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:01.440 Do we just have to wait a couple of days? 272 00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:02.639 So how does that work? You know? 273 00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:05.039 I think someone out there would probably stumble upon it 274 00:14:05.120 --> 00:14:06.799 and throw out a tweet. 275 00:14:06.559 --> 00:14:10.399 Or but that's my point. You said, stumble upon it? Yeah, right, 276 00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:12.240 Like it's like, you know. 277 00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:14.720 I think someone actually coming on the on the on 278 00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:17.799 the one of the YouTube videos about there's not much 279 00:14:18.200 --> 00:14:19.960 stuff about this online events. I'm like, yeah, I think 280 00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:23.039 there's a real opening there for a news outlet. I mean, 281 00:14:23.039 --> 00:14:24.720 Tim and I would like to cover them to live 282 00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:27.000 stream that I think, well, I think also anyone would 283 00:14:27.039 --> 00:14:28.720 like to cover them. One of the issues is like 284 00:14:29.200 --> 00:14:31.559 after the events are done, they're like gone from the lobby, 285 00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:32.679 like in like one or. 286 00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:35.840 Two days, they're just gone. Yeah, So like like they 287 00:14:35.879 --> 00:14:39.039 should either leave them up or immediately take the results 288 00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:41.639 and put them on a website or share them on 289 00:14:41.679 --> 00:14:44.679 social media or whatever it may be, right, and they 290 00:14:44.759 --> 00:14:48.159 ultimately do like push these through to hand in mob 291 00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:50.759 I believe, right, and then you see all the real names. 292 00:14:50.759 --> 00:14:53.279 So if you match up lobby to real name, you 293 00:14:53.360 --> 00:14:55.440 know you know who won and who didn't. So if 294 00:14:55.440 --> 00:14:57.799 that's what you're doing, why can't you just immediately publish 295 00:14:57.799 --> 00:15:00.559 it all as real names. I you know, I just 296 00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:03.080 there's some sort of gap here and there needs to 297 00:15:03.080 --> 00:15:07.600 be a solution because I agree with you, there's no asterisk. 298 00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:10.480 If w CB says all bracelets are equal, all bracelets 299 00:15:10.519 --> 00:15:13.759 are equal, okay, so then treat them egal. 300 00:15:14.679 --> 00:15:17.000 You know how you have these conversations like if I 301 00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:18.679 was boss for the day, or if I was a 302 00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:20.320 man for a day, those kind of conversations. 303 00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:23.519 Why was the bizarre of WSP. 304 00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:26.200 One of the things I would do is say, hey, 305 00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:31.159 Social Team, we're gonna stream every bracelet event online, stream 306 00:15:31.159 --> 00:15:33.080 every online brace event on a YouTube channel. 307 00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:33.360 For sure. 308 00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:35.360 I'm going to get a I'm gonna hire a Jeff Platter. 309 00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:37.679 I think we should do that. Yeah, I mean it's 310 00:15:37.720 --> 00:15:39.960 more a WSP thing. But then you just pull out 311 00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:42.320 four tables. You know, there is a Google doc out 312 00:15:42.320 --> 00:15:44.600 there that has players' names and they use the names. 313 00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:47.799 Use that to assist you and kind of you know, 314 00:15:47.879 --> 00:15:50.000 break it down. These events. Yes, okay, they do take 315 00:15:50.039 --> 00:15:52.639 sixteen hours to finish, but you don't need to pick 316 00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:55.200 it up to the registration closes, so it might be 317 00:15:55.200 --> 00:15:56.360 in a six hours or something. 318 00:15:56.440 --> 00:15:58.480 But I mean you could do what you said where 319 00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:01.840 you do four tables, start with the final four tables. 320 00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:03.600 Oh yeah, no, look in that some of that final. 321 00:16:03.960 --> 00:16:07.559 Then the person streaming it or whatever is doing max 322 00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:09.000 three hours, you know. 323 00:16:09.519 --> 00:16:11.159 And then at least you know that comes out. 324 00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:11.799 It's out there. 325 00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:14.320 People can watch the replay, they can see hands and 326 00:16:14.399 --> 00:16:18.399 if there if WSA really committed to this, why couldn't 327 00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:21.039 they go down the road of what Pogostars does with 328 00:16:21.159 --> 00:16:23.559 the cards up coverage for their like w coop and 329 00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:24.720 ESCA and g. 330 00:16:24.919 --> 00:16:28.320 Boker who now owns I think that would be a 331 00:16:28.320 --> 00:16:29.039 better way to do it. 332 00:16:29.279 --> 00:16:32.200 You know, you have enough people in your rollot x 333 00:16:32.240 --> 00:16:35.759 two that are talented enough to cover these, so I 334 00:16:35.759 --> 00:16:37.720 think that's definitely something. If you really want to highlight 335 00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:40.919 bracelet online bracelet events, you've got to take that step 336 00:16:41.279 --> 00:16:45.000 to kind of force it upon people to recognize that, hey, 337 00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:48.000 this is as equal as any live event here at 338 00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:49.000 the Horseshoe of Paris. 339 00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:51.159 You know, Darren's a guy who and we talked about 340 00:16:51.159 --> 00:16:53.759 it a bit when he finished second to Nick Shulman 341 00:16:53.840 --> 00:16:56.519 in the ten K Nolan MEDUSA seven earlier this summer. 342 00:16:56.600 --> 00:16:58.919 You know, Darren's a guy who he's going to get 343 00:16:58.960 --> 00:17:01.840 his It just hasn't broken his way as it comes 344 00:17:01.879 --> 00:17:05.079 to the WSP. You know, he's won plenty of other 345 00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:08.599 stuff else where. You know, the crusher of the WPT, 346 00:17:09.000 --> 00:17:11.240 the end Boss. You know, we call him the end 347 00:17:11.240 --> 00:17:13.440 Boss anyway, but as a release to a WPT, he 348 00:17:13.559 --> 00:17:16.599 is the end Boss. And you know, it's it's about 349 00:17:16.599 --> 00:17:19.640 time he got a bracelet. You know, it's just it's 350 00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:23.200 just kind of you know, fallen by the wayside a 351 00:17:23.240 --> 00:17:25.440 little bit because it's it's not getting the coverage that 352 00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:28.400 it deserves. And it's not only darren OLiS. You know, 353 00:17:28.519 --> 00:17:30.559 darren OLiS is a jumping off point for a bigger 354 00:17:30.599 --> 00:17:33.200 topic as you've been addressing here. You know, someone like 355 00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:36.759 a Matthew Wantman, Jonathan little one one earlier. I think 356 00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:38.839 Nick my moone one one as well.

But because I know that's how you are. 373 00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:39.079 But I mean, these are all the biggest guys.
