1
00:00:10,759 --> 00:00:11,560
Speaker 1: Hello everyone, and.

2
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:15,320
Speaker 2: Welcome to a new episode Oh the Poker Go Podcast.

3
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,920
My name is Donnie Peters, his name is Tim Duckworth.

4
00:00:18,679 --> 00:00:21,879
Speaker 1: And it is here the.

5
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 2: Moment we have all been waiting for. I have no

6
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,440
idea how many days it's been. It feels like it's

7
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:32,079
been forty eight days. No, but I'm talking about I'm

8
00:00:32,079 --> 00:00:34,840
talking about like since the main events started, how many

9
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,600
days it's been. I think it's been twelve days total,

10
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,640
But if you count the day ones as one day,

11
00:00:40,719 --> 00:00:43,799
the day two's is two days as another single day.

12
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 1: I think it's been eight days. I don't know.

13
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 2: Thousands of bust outs, almost ten thousand bust outs. Huh,

14
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:55,000
what what's wrong with you? There's been crazy hands. Yes,

15
00:00:55,079 --> 00:00:59,159
there has been massive shout out, massive, massive swings in

16
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:03,159
chip counts, one of which involved Michael the Grinder is Rocky,

17
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,840
and we'll talk about that. But the story is the

18
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:11,200
WSP Main Event final table is set. It is locked in.

19
00:01:11,519 --> 00:01:15,079
Nine players remain. They came from a field of nine

20
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:19,400
thousand and seven, one hundred and thirty five and they're

21
00:01:19,439 --> 00:01:24,439
all chasing that one dream and ten million dollars up top.

22
00:01:25,159 --> 00:01:28,079
We got big names, we got some underdogs.

23
00:01:28,079 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: In the mix.

24
00:01:28,599 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 2: We got some breakout stars. There's international flare that's going

25
00:01:32,359 --> 00:01:35,519
on at this final table. You know, it's there, really

26
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,840
is a bit of everything right. And of course, finally,

27
00:01:40,519 --> 00:01:47,760
finally the rock has no just kidding Leo Margets. For

28
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,319
the first time in thirty years, we have a woman

29
00:01:51,599 --> 00:01:56,400
at the WSP Main Event final table. Let's go layout.

30
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,319
Speaker 1: Even Majets means rock in French.

31
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:03,519
Speaker 2: Well that's even better, that's even better. Let's go, Leyo bebeh.

32
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,200
So we got that. We're gonna hit on it all.

33
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,159
This is poker's biggest stage, of course, that be main Event.

34
00:02:09,319 --> 00:02:11,759
We've been talking about it four days. It's the chance

35
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,599
of a lifetime. Nine of these players are about to

36
00:02:14,599 --> 00:02:18,319
etch their name in poker history, and then one of them,

37
00:02:18,599 --> 00:02:22,080
one of them gets the title of world champion. Ten

38
00:02:22,439 --> 00:02:26,439
million dollars is coming that player's way as well. We're

39
00:02:26,439 --> 00:02:28,599
gonna break it all down on this podcast. We're going

All right, let's meet the final nine again. They came

72
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,680
from a field of nine, seven hundred and thirty five,

73
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:16,680
third largest main event field in history. Sitting atop the counts,

74
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,079
We're gonna we're gonna go in order, right, We're gonna

75
00:04:19,079 --> 00:04:20,839
start with the chip leader. I want to give him

76
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,720
his dues. And then of course we're gonna touch on

77
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,360
the Leo marget story. We gotta touch on Michael Lagrind

78
00:04:25,439 --> 00:04:27,600
and is Rocky et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. So

79
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,839
first up, we got John Wasnack, a fifty year old

80
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,879
father of four from Washington State, big Seattle sports fan.

81
00:04:35,959 --> 00:04:38,680
He had some Seattle sports had on today?

82
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,759
Speaker 1: Was it was it Mariners? Pretty shit? Pretty sure? It

83
00:04:41,759 --> 00:04:42,800
was Manus? All right?

84
00:04:43,319 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 2: Well, it had the colors of the Seattle Kraken, but

85
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,639
it was like it was the Mariners, ass I think, so,

86
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,040
I'm not exactly sure That's why I was kind of like,

87
00:04:51,079 --> 00:04:52,279
I didn't know which one it was, Docky.

88
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: We had lots of pitches of these guys.

89
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 2: He works as an investment consultant. He started playing poker

90
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,959
way back in nineteen eighty three, the year that I

91
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:03,839
was born with his family. Breakout year in twenty twenty

92
00:05:03,879 --> 00:05:06,079
five with one hundred and forty three thousand dollars in

93
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,360
live tournament earnings. He's very active in his local community.

94
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,839
He sits on youth sports boards. He says poker is

95
00:05:12,879 --> 00:05:15,759
just a fun hobby of his and if he wins,

96
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,959
he's gonna plan on taking his family on a cruise.

97
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,319
I mean he could already take him on a cruise.

98
00:05:19,319 --> 00:05:21,560
He already winning a million dollars. Everyone left is getting

99
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,240
a million dollars. So you can go on a cruise.

100
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,879
You can seal around the freaking world. So John, he

101
00:05:26,879 --> 00:05:29,319
he was down to I think around somewhere between like

102
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,040
ten and fifteen big lines throughout the day today, but

103
00:05:32,319 --> 00:05:34,160
he was able to run it back up when he

104
00:05:34,199 --> 00:05:37,040
got to the final table of ten. He was bunched

105
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,759
in a group that had you know, they were kind

106
00:05:38,759 --> 00:05:41,079
of jocking for the chip lead, but then the final

107
00:05:41,199 --> 00:05:44,680
hand is what gave Wasnock the chip leader, or you know,

108
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:49,240
secured him the chip lead. He took out Padrone. It

109
00:05:49,399 --> 00:05:52,480
was a raise from Wosnock with a couple of eights

110
00:05:52,639 --> 00:05:55,839
min rays. But Djokovic calls in position with Ace King,

111
00:05:55,879 --> 00:05:58,279
which is understandable because you're playing ten handed. The guy's

112
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,480
raising under the gun. There's this there's this really short

113
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,279
stack of padrone. He folds over to Padron on the

114
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,360
button and he goes all in for I think like

115
00:06:08,439 --> 00:06:12,319
eight big blind. Yeah, twelve million east six off, which

116
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:13,480
is an incredible punt.

117
00:06:14,319 --> 00:06:15,079
Speaker 1: Is it really a punt?

118
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,879
Speaker 2: Oh my god, are you serious? It's an outrageous punt.

119
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,399
Like I don't even act like it's not. This is

120
00:06:22,439 --> 00:06:23,360
an outrageous punt.

121
00:06:23,399 --> 00:06:24,079
Speaker 1: I'm just and it was.

122
00:06:24,199 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 2: So it seems so out of character for him because

123
00:06:28,319 --> 00:06:32,120
he played He played pretty snug, pretty solid all day.

124
00:06:32,319 --> 00:06:34,920
I know he I believe the story was he only

125
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,839
had around like fourteen or fifteen thousand dollars or something

126
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,319
like that and live tournamentnings coming out here. He came

127
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,240
out here to play the Gladiators and I think the

128
00:06:43,319 --> 00:06:45,319
mini main event, but then his wife convinced him, no,

129
00:06:45,439 --> 00:06:46,920
you're out there already he might as well play the

130
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,560
main and look, he's in the final ten. He didn't

131
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,800
seem like a world beater as a player, but that's fine.

132
00:06:51,959 --> 00:06:54,519
He certainly held his own. He was very much in

133
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,920
the mix again, he played very solid and then it

134
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,720
was just like all of a sudden, he just spassed

135
00:06:58,759 --> 00:06:59,680
out with this a six.

136
00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:00,319
Speaker 1: I don't know.

137
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 2: It just must have been a combination of a few

138
00:07:02,959 --> 00:07:06,800
things in my opinion. One, it was two thirty am.

139
00:07:06,959 --> 00:07:09,680
He's probably dead ass tired. He's been playing for eight days,

140
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,839
like I get it right, So there's that factor that

141
00:07:12,959 --> 00:07:16,680
that comes into it. Also, he had dwindled down to

142
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,240
these like eight big blinds or so, and he's probably like,

143
00:07:19,879 --> 00:07:20,600
can I get a hand?

144
00:07:20,639 --> 00:07:21,879
Speaker 1: Can I get a hand? Can I get a hand?

145
00:07:21,879 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 2: And we've all been there as poker players, and then finally,

146
00:07:23,879 --> 00:07:25,519
like you see a hand that is not that good,

147
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,360
but it looks better because you haven't seen anything. You're

148
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,000
looking around the table. Everyone's got a boatloader, chips, you

149
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,160
got the pressure of the crowd, the lights, the cameras, everything,

150
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:35,240
and you make a mistake.

151
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: So it happens, right, But.

152
00:07:36,879 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 3: Are you saying that a six is a punt just

153
00:07:38,639 --> 00:07:41,560
because with ten hand in WSP main event, or like

154
00:07:41,879 --> 00:07:43,399
we could be at the south point Ninali in a

155
00:07:43,439 --> 00:07:44,000
silly punt.

156
00:07:44,279 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 2: No, it's a punt in that situation, there's a two

157
00:07:46,839 --> 00:07:49,120
and fifty k page jump. You can't you can't like No,

158
00:07:49,199 --> 00:07:51,399
I'm saying ignoring this, trying to ignore the main event

159
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,879
side of things. The guy opening under the gun. Think

160
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,920
about how Badjokovic approach the hand he has ace king,

161
00:07:57,079 --> 00:08:00,879
He's just flatting to raise from under the gun. Because

162
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,199
an under the gun range ten handed is like astronomically tight.

163
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,399
It has to be astronomically tight. It just has to be,

164
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,759
especially with a two hundred and fifty k page up

165
00:08:08,839 --> 00:08:11,120
on the line. It has to be very tight. And

166
00:08:11,199 --> 00:08:14,240
it's not like Waznak was getting crazily out of line.

167
00:08:14,279 --> 00:08:15,519
I know he had a lot of chips, but he

168
00:08:15,639 --> 00:08:18,040
was not stepping out of line at all. So you

169
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,199
have that, so then the guy flats right, and then

170
00:08:20,319 --> 00:08:24,199
so you're for sure gonna get called by one, if

171
00:08:24,279 --> 00:08:26,360
not two, of these guys because you just don't have

172
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:27,000
enough chips.

173
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:28,199
Speaker 1: You have a big lines.

174
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,679
Speaker 2: So a six off it just doesn't play well against

175
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,120
really anything, even in the hands that like you're ahead,

176
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,960
let's say King Queen suited. I mean that you're not

177
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,720
like a slam dunk ahead, you're flipping. It's just not

178
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,639
that good of a spot. So yeah, I mean he

179
00:08:45,639 --> 00:08:48,879
should have folded and waited for a better spot. I

180
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:50,879
just you know, again, I think it was probably just

181
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,440
a combination of many things. You know, probably didn't see

182
00:08:53,519 --> 00:08:56,279
a good hand for a while, was getting short on chips,

183
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,679
felt a little bit of pressure. It was tired, you know,

184
00:08:58,759 --> 00:09:00,679
playing long days, tired. All that's for of stuff I

185
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:01,360
mean should happen.

186
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 3: I mean he was also, you know, significantly short competitor

187
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,600
the next biggest ac jobman man Janie basically has double

188
00:09:07,639 --> 00:09:07,960
his stuff.

189
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 1: That's what I mean.

190
00:09:08,519 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 2: Like you're looking around the table, You're like, shit, I

191
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,279
gotta make something happen, like you know what's going on.

192
00:09:12,519 --> 00:09:15,639
So anyway, he ends up getting called in bowl spots,

193
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,559
Wasna called and then Dadjokovic called, which maybe an argument

194
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,720
to be made the Padjokovic could have back jammed, but

195
00:09:22,039 --> 00:09:25,480
still decided to play it slow. Wassnock and Madjokovic end

196
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:29,039
up checking it down. It comes jack five, five, nine jack,

197
00:09:29,399 --> 00:09:32,240
and then the Eights win for Wasnock, and that's that

198
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,159
we lose a pardrone in tenth place. He takes on

199
00:09:36,279 --> 00:09:38,799
seven hundred and fifty k. Everyone locks up a million

200
00:09:38,879 --> 00:09:41,200
dollars and Wasnock locked up the chip Lee.

201
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:46,759
Speaker 4: Was you're the chip leader going into the World Series

202
00:09:46,799 --> 00:09:49,840
of Poker Main Event final table.

203
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: Tell me what it is like to hear that.

204
00:09:52,759 --> 00:09:55,960
Speaker 5: I don't know what to say. It's been a hell

205
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,919
of a run. I was down to ten bigs about

206
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:02,039
three hours ago. I think just kind of kept grinding,

207
00:10:03,639 --> 00:10:06,279
played a short stack got I mean, it's been a rollercoaster,

208
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,600
been up and down, but I've been fortunate. I mean,

209
00:10:08,639 --> 00:10:11,240
we've had good cards. I've played well, play well, run well.

210
00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:12,039
It's what you got to do.

211
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,519
Speaker 4: How special is this moment? Considering your family was able

212
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,080
to make the trip, is here supporting you.

213
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,279
Speaker 1: A lot, makes a lot more special for sure.

214
00:10:19,759 --> 00:10:21,799
Speaker 5: Got a good group and hopefully some more people coming

215
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:22,960
down to watch on Tuesday.

216
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 4: Any sense yet of how much pressure you will feel

217
00:10:25,919 --> 00:10:26,919
come this final table?

218
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,159
Speaker 1: You know, I kind of feel like I'm free rolling.

219
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:36,159
Speaker 5: I haven't felt overwhelmed by anything. I feel comfortable, you know,

220
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:37,159
just play my game.

221
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 2: That also locked up the first woman to make the

222
00:10:48,919 --> 00:10:54,360
Soup Main Event final table since nineteen ninety five when

223
00:10:54,519 --> 00:11:00,320
Barbara en Wright did it. Leo Margetts the Spanish Poker

224
00:11:00,399 --> 00:11:03,000
Pro the Spanish Poker Hall of Famer, which I did

225
00:11:03,039 --> 00:11:04,759
not know there was a Spanish Hall of Fame, but

226
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,960
I guess she is in it. She's also a Devices

227
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:12,120
Bracelet winner. She won the Closer back at the she

228
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,000
was at the Reo. I don't know which year was,

229
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,159
but she she won it at the Rio in twenty

230
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,639
twenty one, so the last year at the Rio. She's

231
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,799
a Winnimax ambassador. She first kind of like broke on

232
00:11:21,879 --> 00:11:24,480
the scene years ago when she was the last woman

233
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,879
standing in the WSP main event. I believe that was

234
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,440
two thousand and nine. She made the final three tables,

235
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,080
ended up finishing in twenty seventh place there. Nowadays, she

236
00:11:34,399 --> 00:11:37,559
is the host of what is called the Wild Project podcast.

237
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:42,960
She also coaches through Mento Poker. She's got a background

238
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,960
in management communications. She turned pro after she had some

239
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:51,879
early success. She believes poker helps people improve decision making

240
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:57,200
in life through logic and emotional control. So Leo Marguet's

241
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:02,240
absolutely crushing it. I mean I remember back on day one,

242
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,159
I'm pretty sure she bluffed a guy off two pairs.

243
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: He had ace ten.

244
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure that that was what he had, and

245
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:12,360
it was an outrageous fold. It was a crazy bluff

246
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,919
by her, and she could have I can't remember if

247
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:16,600
she could have been out or it would have been

248
00:12:16,639 --> 00:12:19,879
severely crippled. Either way, if she gets called there, she's

249
00:12:19,919 --> 00:12:23,080
not going on this run, it changes everything. She ends

250
00:12:23,159 --> 00:12:27,639
up going on this run in absolutely positively chaotic hand

251
00:12:27,759 --> 00:12:29,000
today is great.

252
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: It was great. The entire poker world was just like

253
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,440
like could not contain themselves.

254
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:40,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, she gets it all in against I don't remember

255
00:12:40,639 --> 00:12:44,960
who it was against, Corddara Carrera, Yeah him, I think so.

256
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,840
She has Jack's, he has ace king. They get it

257
00:12:49,919 --> 00:12:52,919
all in for what is like a sixty million chip pot.

258
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:58,240
She does cover her opponent, yes, but I think she

259
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,679
would have, Yeah, she would have. She would have crushed.

260
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,039
She would have had, you know, a couple of big

261
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:07,240
blinds after that, and the flop comes ace high, but

262
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,440
it has two clubs. She has the jack clubs. It

263
00:13:09,519 --> 00:13:13,000
comes club club and when that club hit on the river,

264
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,799
the deuce of clubs, I mean it erupted in here,

265
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,559
It erupted over there it erupted in Paris, like it was.

266
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: That was the moment when that happened. I mean I knew.

267
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:25,120
I was like, she's making it.

268
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I said, fold to the phone and say, well,

269
00:13:27,279 --> 00:13:29,600
but she's making it like she's she's locked in. She

270
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,080
had I think she had seventy million ships after that

271
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,559
hand winning that pot, And that was the moment that

272
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:42,200
changed history forever. It was simply freaking iconic, it really was.

273
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,320
And you know she she's celebrating with the rail. I

274
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,879
mean everyone in here knew what that moment meant. It

275
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,480
was like, oh my gosh, it's actually gonna happen. But

276
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,559
when that Ace hit Man was we all were like, again,

277
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,360
this is gonna get effed up again. I mean that

278
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:01,720
was the feel because we've been so close so many

279
00:14:01,799 --> 00:14:03,919
times and then it just always comes crumbling down for

280
00:14:04,039 --> 00:14:07,399
whatever reason. And again we were like, of course in

281
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,480
as and let flow, of course. But then the poker

282
00:14:10,519 --> 00:14:13,840
gods just came right in and they said, no, mother efforts,

283
00:14:13,919 --> 00:14:17,519
let's go club Club boom. We're giving it to Lao Margettes.

284
00:14:17,639 --> 00:14:23,799
So let's freaking go Leo Margettes. You are the first

285
00:14:24,559 --> 00:14:28,879

of poker main events. What does that mean to you?

287
00:14:34,039 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 6: It's so angry that, I mean, I've been I don't

I am to live this.

292
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 4: Tell me what the moment was like when you were

293
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,919
with everybody on the rail, when that club arrives on

294
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:55,279
the river.

295
00:14:55,559 --> 00:14:59,799
Speaker 6: That is I think the most incredible moment of my life.

296
00:15:04,679 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: All right. So that was Jeff talking to Leo Margaret.

to go on this run and become the first woman

322
00:16:12,639 --> 00:16:15,919
in thirty years. Again, that's since nineteen ninety five when

323
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,080
Barbara Enright did it and when won that. What place

324
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,320
did she finish in nineteen ninety five?

325
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,399
Speaker 1: Who what was it? Dan Harrington? Yeah? I think she

326
00:16:23,519 --> 00:16:26,360
was fifth or six? Yeah? I want to stay fifth.

327
00:16:26,399 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 3: I want to go fifth too, looking out real quick, yes,

328
00:16:29,279 --> 00:16:33,799

00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:34,559
out drawn by.

330

Speaker 1: A suit of the sixth thrtying Lucy Goosey back in

331
00:16:39,759 --> 00:16:42,879
nineteen ninety five. I mean, god knows how that hand play. Yeah,

332
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:44,720
we need to find that hand history, maybe some pub

333
00:16:44,759 --> 00:16:48,080
go dot com. Sorry, fifth place, fifth place?

334
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:48,279
Speaker 6: Yeah?

335
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:49,759
Speaker 1: What did she get for fifth place? Do you know?

336
00:16:50,679 --> 00:16:54,159
Speaker 2: It's probably she probably like forty k back then something ridiculous.

337
00:16:54,399 --> 00:16:56,279
Speaker 1: Doesn't have the payouts on that bit.

338
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 3: I was looking out, kid, you just sort it, can

339
00:16:59,679 --> 00:17:02,039
I I don't like this WSV website.

340
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:06,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's ridiculous. One hundred and forty. Oh wow, okay,

341
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:12,799
all right. Next up we got Michael the Grinder, Miss Rocky.

342
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:17,039
Now this this guy, I mean, I can't even explain

343
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:17,279
to you.

344
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:17,759
Speaker 1: This guy.

345
00:17:19,079 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 2: Well, early on in the day, was it like the

346
00:17:21,319 --> 00:17:23,079
it was like the first hand or something. I turned

347
00:17:23,079 --> 00:17:25,920
on the broadcast. He's just ripping like nineteen big blinds

348
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,359
from under the gun with ace. Jack of course gets

349
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:32,720
called by better. He's down to like three big blinds.

350
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,119
I think it was like three point two big linds.

351
00:17:35,839 --> 00:17:38,839
He ends up spinning it all the way back up.

352
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,319
He's like he's top what is he in chips?

353
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:42,799
Speaker 1: Top three?

354
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,759
Speaker 2: I don't like It's just the whole thing is just

355
00:17:45,839 --> 00:17:48,599
out of control. He just plays second in chips. He

356
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,599
plays wild hands. He's just out there, he's doing his thing.

357
00:17:52,759 --> 00:17:56,079
He certainly has his own style. He's got a big

358
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:57,079
rail behind him.

359
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,599
Speaker 1: Of course, interesting right now, so I'm going to say.

360
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, very interesting rail. We heard he's been doing some

361
00:18:03,079 --> 00:18:06,720
party and you know, pretty much every single night partying.

362
00:18:06,839 --> 00:18:09,079
Speaker 3: ND now we got invited, me and Jeff got invited

363
00:18:09,319 --> 00:18:12,000
to go to the grind this party with Jard Blessnik.

364
00:18:13,079 --> 00:18:18,039
Speaker 2: I can't even I mean I heard, I heard allegedly

365
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,359
that he was partying till like nine thirty am.

366
00:18:21,519 --> 00:18:25,599
Speaker 1: Yep, on these days, I mean, just an absolute beast

367
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:26,079
of a human.

368
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,799
Speaker 3: You know, maybe how we talked about your run and

369
00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,839
then you were doing everything the same every day.

370
00:18:31,319 --> 00:18:34,920
Speaker 1: We were poking every day. This is every day. Yeah,

371
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,559
this is it, same thing, every day. Bag party, bag party.

372
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 3: Get here, nine thirty, go to sleep, nine thirty, maybe arrived,

373
00:18:42,079 --> 00:18:42,960
you know, ten minutes.

374
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:45,640
Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. This guy.

375
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 2: Of course, he won his fourth PPC title earlier this summer.

376
00:18:49,839 --> 00:18:52,680
Now he's let it be main event, final table. He's

377
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,920
got more than nineteen million dollars in earnings ahead of

378
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,720
this events. I mean, the grinder needs no freaking introduction.

379
00:18:59,039 --> 00:19:02,240
This is they They chant his real chance hall of Fame.

380
00:19:02,319 --> 00:19:04,720
I mean, you just they should honestly just put him

381
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:05,359
in the Hall of fame.

382
00:19:06,079 --> 00:19:07,599
Speaker 3: The thing that a lot of people have said on

383
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,400
social you know, Grinder wins the PBC, wins the main event,

384
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,319
this is the greatest achievement in WSB history. He should

385
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,519
automatically win Player of the Year. We've seen some tweeters's like,

386
00:19:16,559 --> 00:19:19,559
well you need five cashes. We've discussed how many cashes

387
00:19:19,599 --> 00:19:23,559
Grinder has. He has a lot, He'll like eleven or something. Yeah,

388
00:19:23,759 --> 00:19:26,480
and this is his twelfth cash. The guy that tweeted

389
00:19:26,519 --> 00:19:29,279
that I'm gonna call you out, Mike Norri, has significantly

390
00:19:29,319 --> 00:19:30,359
less cashes than Grinder.

391
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:31,319
Speaker 1: I made sure he was aware of that.

392
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 3: But if he does win this, he will not be

393
00:19:35,839 --> 00:19:39,400
able to win Player of the Year unless he gets

394
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,119
in another twenty does a little bit of multi table.

395
00:19:41,519 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 1: Well he's he's wild, you never know.

396
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 3: But yeah, this will put him to I believe, second

397
00:19:47,559 --> 00:19:51,599
place if he wins this, and obviously everyone around him,

398
00:19:51,599 --> 00:19:55,039
Sean Dee, Benny Glasser, Philsernheim, and they're all playing other events,

399
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,599
so even that second place may not stay.

400
00:19:58,559 --> 00:20:01,759
Speaker 2: I just can't even comprehend and not only this, summer,

401
00:20:01,839 --> 00:20:04,200
but like the career grind her has head. I honestly

402
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,319
can just can just not comprehend it at all. It's

403
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,400
just it's wild shit, man, It's just is absolutely wild shit.

404
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,640
And I kind of just feel like he's gonna win.

405
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,200
I mean, I just I just do you know, It's

406
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,559
just it feels like it's his time. He's got all

407
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,319
the momentum. He looks like he's playing as free as

408
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:26,599
humanly possible, not a care in the goddamn world about things.

409
00:20:26,799 --> 00:20:30,920
So you know, yeah, he's got his rail behind him.

410
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:34,759
He's I mean, at one point today when he went

411
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,720
did you see when he went all in with Queen's

412
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,000
and he like he like moved all in and stood

413
00:20:40,079 --> 00:20:41,559
up and like put both of his hands in the

414
00:20:41,599 --> 00:20:43,720
air like well, his opponents still had that. It was

415
00:20:44,039 --> 00:20:47,559
shades of Best Shack back in the day that hand

416
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,839
with Brett Ritchie and Phil Helmy. Like he's like like

417
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:52,920
like putting his hands up in the air, like he's

418
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,279
conquered the world, yet his opponents haven't even like called

419
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,240
or done anything yet. It was just I mean, the

420
00:20:58,240 --> 00:20:59,920
whole and then he's like laying on He's laying on

421
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,119
the floor out there at one point because like he's

422
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,480
all in, Like the whole thing was just freaking wild man.

423
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,880
It was just absolutely wild again. He was down to

424
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,160
just over three big blinds when he lost that pot

425
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,440
super early, and he spun it all the way back up.

426
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,799
Just like I said, it's a beast of a human.

427
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,400
You know, it's an incredible poker player. He's doing his

428
00:21:21,519 --> 00:21:24,799
thing out there. He also he's he does not back

429
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,640
down against anyone. He'll get in there with like very

430
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,680
interesting hands that like a lot of people wouldn't play.

431
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,920
He'll make big calls, big reads. He'll talk to you,

432
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,599
he'll try and you know, talk you into a bloff,

433
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,440
or he'll try and talk to you to get a

434
00:21:39,559 --> 00:21:42,039
read so he can make a big call. He's just

435
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,720
it's simply incredible theater to watch him. And I'm so

436
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,119
happy he made the final table because the Grinder Show

437
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,359
continues on for at least one more day, and that's

438
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,359
gonna be tremendous entertainment when it happens and afterwards, Like

439
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,319
with Leo Marget's, Jeff Platt caught up with Grinder while

440
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,640
he was counting his chips right at the table afterwards,

441
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:04,079
So let's hear that right now.

442
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,279
Speaker 4: All right, he's sacking up his chips. He had a

443
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,920
lot more than he had at one point in the day.

444
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,839
I'm going to let him count it out. He's almost done.

445
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,359
At one point, Michael ms Rocky was down to less

446
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,240
than two million of chips. This is one of the

447
00:22:22,319 --> 00:22:26,160
more remarkable comebacks that we have seen in main event history.

448
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 1: How'd you do it, buddy? I don't know. I just

449
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:30,000
waited for the right spots.

450
00:22:30,039 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 7: I never gave up. I just I just, you know,

451
00:22:32,599 --> 00:22:34,720
I just it was unbelievable. I mean, you got to

452
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,880
get lucky at that point, but I got luck. You

453
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,240
had an ace under the gun. I mean, just situations,

454
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:41,920
running flushes of both of them.

455
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: You know.

456
00:22:42,759 --> 00:22:45,039
Speaker 7: I was only all in probably like this tournament made

457
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:46,720
for my life probably three or four times, and that

458
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:47,039
was it.

459
00:22:47,559 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 1: So that was pretty remarkable. Together.

460
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,079
Speaker 4: You told us if you got a big stack it

461
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,920
would be trouble for your opponent. How much trouble would

462
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,880
be for them come this final table day.

463
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 1: But they're in a lot of trouble.

464
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,519
Speaker 4: We've heard the grinder chain that's throughout well, well, this

465
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,160
rail b like for the final table. The World Series

466
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:05,839
of Poker main.

467
00:23:05,759 --> 00:23:08,400
Speaker 1: Event A lot louder than this. It's gonna we're.

468
00:23:08,319 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 7: Taking over, buddy, and it's gonna be all of us.

469
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 5: Multi time.

470
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 1: All right.

471
00:23:19,279 --> 00:23:22,599
Speaker 2: That was Jeff with grinder. Next up we got Braxton

472
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:27,319
Dunaway aka be Done, who looked like he was gonna

473
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,519
run away with this thing. I think he was up

474
00:23:29,519 --> 00:23:32,359
to around one hundred and twenty million in chips at

475
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,440
one point today ended up finishing with I Believe ninety one.

476
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,960
He is the winner of the twenty twenty three WSP

477
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,319
Monster Stack. He won that for one million, one hundred

478
00:23:42,319 --> 00:23:45,359
and sixty thousand. He's got more than one point five

479
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,920
million in live tournamentaries. He's a part time poke, but

480
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,880
he's not a full time player. He works in the

481
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:55,079
oil and gas industry. He does UH sales and crane operations.

482
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:58,400
He's a former scratch golfer. He looks like a golferes.

483
00:23:58,440 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 1: He remind you of Jake Daniels a little bit.

484
00:24:00,839 --> 00:24:02,799
Speaker 3: The look and then now you're throw in the golf

485
00:24:03,319 --> 00:24:05,519
the Texas you know the fact that he's from Texas.

486
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 1: I just get it very I mean a little bit.

487
00:24:08,519 --> 00:24:10,599
Speaker 2: See if Jack Daniels a name, he I mean, he

488
00:24:10,759 --> 00:24:13,680
just he looks exactly like what I just described somebody

489
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,920
who works in oil and gas and is a scratch golfer.

490
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,079
I mean, that's that's exactly what he looks like to me.

491
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,640
Plays a little poker on the side, all good. He

492
00:24:21,759 --> 00:24:25,039
says that he relies heavily on live reads, and he

493
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,839
advises that others stay present and have fun. He's a

494
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:32,400
regular at Kojack's Poker Club in Midland, Texas. Believe they

495
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,920
had some virtual rails watch parties and stuff going on

496
00:24:36,079 --> 00:24:38,880
down there, so I'm sure they're getting routy. Maybe they're

497
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,720
coming out, who knows they got. There's a day off

498
00:24:40,799 --> 00:24:43,920
for all these players, so likely going to get the

499
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,440
rails a little bit roudier as they get some family

500
00:24:46,519 --> 00:24:50,680
and friends out here. A big sports fanatic is Braxton Dunaway.

501
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:55,119
Believe he's a fan of the Oklahoma Sooners if I'm correct,

502
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,079
and also some high school football, which you would expect

503
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:02,079
being from Texas. But Braction's on a way been playing

504
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,319
extremely well. I think he's another like he's he's a

505
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:09,839
little bit more like fine tuned than Grinder is. But

506
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,319
they both kind of play like a very like live

507
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:16,200
poker exploit type of style, right, They're not. I don't

508
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,599
think they're like super theory guys. Yeah, so I like

509
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,000
that there's a bit of a rawness to them, right,

510
00:25:22,039 --> 00:25:24,559
I mean Grinder is one thousand percent raw.

511
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 1: I mean then that.

512
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,079
Speaker 2: Guy's just he's a gorilla, Like it's just what he is.

513
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,680
I know Jesse Lonis is the gorilla, but I think

514
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:35,519
Grinder is the real girl, the real gorillayeah. So yeah,

515
00:25:35,559 --> 00:25:37,480
but Braxton's on away. He's got some game, he's got

516
00:25:37,519 --> 00:25:39,400
some skills, He's got some different tricks up his sleeve.

517
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,000
He's also very fun to watch. It go ahead real.

518
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,559
Speaker 3: Quick on Braxton Way. He came up to me a

519
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,680
few days ago and he was like, he that guy

520
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,920
that wizz those like jackets. Are like yeah, yeah, he

521
00:25:49,039 --> 00:25:51,799
asked me. He's like, you know, can I borrow one

522
00:25:51,799 --> 00:25:54,559
of those? If I make the final table. I'm like, yeah,

523
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:56,599
I mean it's hot up there, but you can borrow

524
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,480
one if you want. He's okay, yeah, so if I

525
00:25:58,559 --> 00:26:00,920
make it, I go when you make it, ok when

526
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:02,440
you make it, you can borrow one. He goes, Okay,

527
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:03,960
when I make it. This was like day six, and

528
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,279
then he started telling us a story about he was

529
00:26:06,319 --> 00:26:09,119
in an uber ride back to He's like Airbnb or hotel.

530
00:26:09,839 --> 00:26:11,240
He see, I was in the uber ride the guy,

531
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:14,119
you know, the guy was asking me about pokers, like

532
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,200
you just play poker? Because yeah, how you doing? You know,

533
00:26:16,279 --> 00:26:18,079
Brax was had a lot of chips. He's like, yeah,

534
00:26:18,079 --> 00:26:20,319
I'm doing okay. I'm doing okay because yeah, I used

535
00:26:20,319 --> 00:26:23,759
to play poker too. Right, you're an uber driver in Vegas.

536
00:26:24,319 --> 00:26:26,440
That's most likely why one time played poker.

537
00:26:26,559 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 1: Right.

538
00:26:27,319 --> 00:26:30,279
Speaker 3: Then he goes the uber driver goes, yeah, I have

539
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:34,079
a bracelet, and Brax was like trying to figure out

540
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,759
who it is. He goes yeah, he goes, yeah, my

541
00:26:36,839 --> 00:26:40,720
name's Toto Total Leonidis. Oh my, and then he was

542
00:26:40,759 --> 00:26:44,160
telling Leonita, so yeah, he was telling Then he told

543
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,799
Braxon a story about how he tried to get steaked

544
00:26:46,799 --> 00:26:48,880
by phil Ivey. He tried to ask him for some money.

545
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,400
Phil just gave him like a flag and like kind

546
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,480
of shoot him off, like I don't want anything to

547
00:26:53,519 --> 00:26:53,799
do with you.

548
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 2: Just take the money and go sounds like we should

549
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,720
be asking phil Ivey for steaking if he's just gonna

550
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,640
throw us flags, tell us the good.

551
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,759
Speaker 3: I mean, there's no risks. You should just literally ask everyone.

552
00:27:03,839 --> 00:27:04,720
They might give you something.

553
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:05,799
Speaker 1: But very true.

554
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's he's a super nice guy, souping down to

555
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,880
super Humble. I interviewed him when he won. He's month stack.

556
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,720
We've been chatting on brakes and stuff during during this,

557
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,400
you know, the last few days, and yeah, really really nice.

558
00:27:17,599 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 1: Uh gentleman, he is.

559
00:27:19,079 --> 00:27:22,319
Speaker 2: If you had to borrow money today, Yeah, how much

560
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:23,519
money you think you could borrow?

561
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:28,519
Speaker 1: I'm not talking like I can ask anyone in the world. Yeah, yeah, sure,

562
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,000
what's a fall? Like I just make up a lie.

563
00:27:32,559 --> 00:27:34,119
You can make up whatever you want. I don't know.

564
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,880
I think I could get at least a millie. Yeah.

565
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:39,839
Speaker 2: I was thinking like the same, Like he's the five

566
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:41,519
hundred k, Like I could like go, I feel like

567
00:27:41,559 --> 00:27:45,039
I could go around here and like get it easily.

568
00:27:46,559 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, Like we know. I think we got good

569
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,200
I think make a good SOB story. Yeah.

570
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:52,599
Speaker 2: I don't even think you need a stop store. I

571
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,519
think we got good enough reputations that we could make.

572
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,279
I think have reputations outstanding. Yeah, that's what I mean. Like,

573
00:27:57,519 --> 00:27:59,640
you know, like if we could just start which is

574
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,720
just our walking around just you know, and then we'll

575
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,000
go to go to Mexico have funny me we put it.

576
00:28:04,039 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 1: On black bro put it on my black.

577
00:28:05,759 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 3: Okay, when we loaded on a number at least no

578
00:28:10,319 --> 00:28:11,960
black just I just need to get the two mil,

580
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,440
Speaker 1: Come on, craziness, you might have how any sathpoint not

581
00:28:17,559 --> 00:28:19,480
ley buyings I get with a million dollars?

582
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,759
Speaker 2: Kenny Hollard back at the final table once again. Twenty

583
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,759
sixteen ws Bemanim and he got six plays for one

584
00:28:26,839 --> 00:28:30,000
point four to six million dollars. He's got almost six

585
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,039
million in total earnings ahead of this event. He's going

586
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,319
to add another million to that at least. He is

587
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:39,559
a Poker Stars Live Events advisor, longtime tournament director across Europe.

588
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:44,440
He's got well over one hundreds of p cashes he's created.

589
00:28:44,599 --> 00:28:49,799
He's the creator of the SPACEFCB Google sheet or Google doc,

590
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,240
which tracks all the It was a it was a

591
00:28:52,319 --> 00:28:55,400
whole giant schedule laid out, but all like in one place,

592
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,839
of all the tournaments in Las Vegas. I know some

593
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,759
others have kind of spawned off of that, but spacey

594
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,279
FCB was the og one as far as I'm concerned.

595
00:29:04,039 --> 00:29:08,039
He's a passionate foodie, a traveler, cyclist, and he's he's back.

596
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,680
He had, he had a lot more tips. He was

597
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,680
a chip leader the past two days, I believe, and

598
00:29:14,839 --> 00:29:19,400
then today yeah, and I mean he's kind of fallen back,

599
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,880
but you know, still extremely healthy, you know, not the

600
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,200
chip lead, but Kenny's been absolutely freaking crushing it. And

601
00:29:25,319 --> 00:29:29,359
I'm sure you know, like someone like him of course,

602
00:29:29,519 --> 00:29:33,359
like Grinder as well, having done this dance before, that

603
00:29:33,559 --> 00:29:36,079
has to be so big like that, that experience, you

604
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:37,799
know what to expect, you know what to go it

605
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,400
into it. You know it's going to be like you know,

606
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,319
iking it too. Like Tom Brady and the Patriots, they

607
00:29:43,359 --> 00:29:46,119
used to always talk about how they know what the

608
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:47,799
super Bowl is going to be like because it's just

609
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,759
so different, you know, like the game is much longer,

610
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,559
halftime is a little bit longer, like the pregame is longer,

611
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:54,480
all this sort of stuff.

612
00:29:54,559 --> 00:29:56,319
Speaker 1: Right, you have all these other extra things.

613
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 2: In addition to just the game. It's not just a

614
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:02,519
regular game. So you know, maybe under those bright lights

615
00:30:02,599 --> 00:30:05,079
with all the hooplah, the cameras, the production, all this

616
00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,319
sort of stuff that happens with the final table and

617
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:10,960
some of these other players not having experienced, you know,

618
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:15,480
that level of spectacle, but Kenny Hollard has, Michael Mczrocky

619
00:30:15,599 --> 00:30:17,960
has and I believe they were both at the Final

620
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:19,440
Table when it was at the Rio and the pent

621
00:30:19,519 --> 00:30:24,160
and Teller Theater, which was even more crazy, right because

622
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,000
you're up on the stage in front of everyone. There's

623
00:30:26,039 --> 00:30:29,079
that huge wall of fans that are everyone's got a section.

624
00:30:29,359 --> 00:30:31,799
I mean, the whole thing was just bananas here. Yes,

625
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:33,480
the crowd is like right on top of you and

626
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,759
very loud and boisterous and whatever, but it's still smaller

627
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,400
amount of people. It's not as much as it was

628
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,400
over at the pent Andellar Theater. And I missed the

629
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,880
Pental Theater for this thing. I really really do. Luka

630
00:30:45,359 --> 00:30:49,680
Padjokovic thirty seven year old doctor, interesting Serbian doctor, but

631
00:30:49,759 --> 00:30:52,079
he lives in Vienna. He's got more than seven hundred

632
00:30:52,119 --> 00:30:53,799
k and earning's ahead of this one, so more than

633
00:30:53,839 --> 00:30:57,319
doubling it by making this final table. He Final Table

634
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,279
doubas AP Europe main event. Well last year I got

635
00:31:00,279 --> 00:31:02,039
eighth for one hundred and thirty four thousand dollars. He

636
00:31:02,119 --> 00:31:07,640
began playing poker in high school. Daily routines including meditation,

637
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,839
the gym stretching as as I think I would expect

638
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,680
from a doctor, a man of health. He expects strong

639
00:31:13,799 --> 00:31:16,359
support from his poker crew that are flying in for

640
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:18,799
the final table, so they are sounds like they are

641
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,880
on their way. He did have a loud crew already.

642
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:23,799
I wonder if that's all of them, If there are

643
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,240
more there are, there are reinforcements coming. But he, I believe,

644
00:31:27,319 --> 00:31:29,079
had one of the larger rails.

645
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: It was him. Grinders was very loud.

646
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 2: Leo Margetts's was loud, but like not like chanting loud.

647
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,640
Djokovic's were chanting. Ms Rockies were chanting.

648
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:40,279
Speaker 1: Okay.

649
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 2: Then we got Adam Hendrix, the iceman, thirty two year

650
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,880
old poker pro originally from Alaska. Where does he live now?

651
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,960
Does he live here or does believe well? Because all

652
00:31:51,039 --> 00:31:53,240
of his bio stuff kept saying that he lives in Virginia,

653
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:54,720
and I was like, I thought he did.

654
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,119
Speaker 1: He moves here. Yeah, yeah, that's what I thought too.

655
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,839
Speaker 2: More than eight million dollars in career tournament arnings, five

656
00:32:00,039 --> 00:32:03,799
career PGT wins. He's a regular in the studio, so

657
00:32:04,759 --> 00:32:08,000
for those of us PGT heads, you know, he's he's

658
00:32:08,119 --> 00:32:09,000
kind of the hometown here.

659
00:32:09,319 --> 00:32:13,079
Speaker 3: He may have the most experience under this this kind

660
00:32:13,119 --> 00:32:14,839
of setting the bright lights is what I mean. I'm

661
00:32:14,839 --> 00:32:17,680
not talking about obviously playing for you know, ten million dollars,

662
00:32:17,759 --> 00:32:21,119
but you know, even compared to Grinder, who's made obviously

663
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:22,640
a lot of final tables here at the World Series

664
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:24,680
of Poker, Adam Henry spent a lot of time in

665
00:32:24,759 --> 00:32:28,359
the studio playing a lot of high rollers, you know,

666
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,720
and obviously not just the shar but around the world

667
00:32:30,759 --> 00:32:34,240
where he is on these final tables and these feature tables,

668
00:32:34,279 --> 00:32:37,279
and he's really been you know that those lights they're

669
00:32:37,279 --> 00:32:40,000
not easy to battle under right, because they're in your face.

670
00:32:40,039 --> 00:32:42,440
It's hot if you've got to make decisions while also

671
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,119
you know, dealing with those kind of elements. So he

672
00:32:45,319 --> 00:32:48,079
may have that advantage over even you know, slightly over

673
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:49,079
Grinder and Kenny.

674
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,039
Speaker 2: He traveled around when he was younger, lived in Scotland

675
00:32:52,079 --> 00:32:55,200
to Egypt, Alaska, all to his due to his father

676
00:32:55,319 --> 00:32:58,559
working in the oil industry. He was a belief, a

677
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:02,559
former software engineer who then left that to become a

678
00:33:02,599 --> 00:33:03,119
poker pro.

679
00:33:03,559 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 1: I believe that's how it went.

680
00:33:04,839 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 2: He's again, he's been in the studio for all of

681
00:33:07,079 --> 00:33:09,440
our events, whether it's hold him or PLO doesn't play

682
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,839
the mixed game stuff, but plays all the other stuff.

683
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:13,359
Speaker 1: He's in there for every single series.

684
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:18,119
Speaker 2: Grinding also travels the circuit pretty regularly wpts and whatnot.

685
00:33:18,279 --> 00:33:21,599
So Adam Hendricks is, you know, he's like the well

686
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:25,000
known pro. I mean, obviously Grinder's the well known pro,

687
00:33:25,119 --> 00:33:27,279
but Grinder kind of transcends just being like a well

688
00:33:27,359 --> 00:33:30,680
known pro. You know, he's like the big star, Whereas

689
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:34,799
you know, Adam Hendricks is just that experienced pro. And

690
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,160
I would not be surprised in the slightest if he's

691
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:39,839
able to come back. He's kind of on the shorter

692
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,119
side of chips. If he's able to come back and

693
00:33:42,599 --> 00:33:45,200
win this thing, I would be very curious to see,

694
00:33:45,559 --> 00:33:48,880
because he did recently take the Triton.

695
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 1: I believe like he went over and played.

696
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, So like, depending on what sort of score he

697
00:33:55,359 --> 00:33:58,079
gets here, is he become a regular and tritoned? Does

698
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,160
he plays super high roll you know that sort of stuff?

699
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,160
Do we see Like if he wins ten million dollars,

700
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,400
do you think he plays super high roleable? I mean,

701
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,000
he's played with a lot of those guys. It's not

702
00:34:08,119 --> 00:34:09,280
like he's likeam his element.

703
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 3: You know, I spent a lot of time with that

704
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,280
him outside of obviously of this setting. You know, we

705
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,159
play basketball together and soccer and some other sports, and

706
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,079
I think he's pretty level headed, pretty humble guy. I

707
00:34:21,159 --> 00:34:25,400
don't see him dropping three hundred K in an event

708
00:34:25,519 --> 00:34:29,599
like that on a regular basis. Now, if an event

709
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,079
has the value he sees that, you know, maybe the

710
00:34:32,159 --> 00:34:35,320
Trent And Invitational Paradise is a good spot to take

711
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,039
a shot due to the field, then I would see

712
00:34:37,079 --> 00:34:40,400
him definitely doing that. But I think this this breed

713
00:34:40,519 --> 00:34:42,920
of pros coming up, like the crew that rolls with

714
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:47,159
Hendrix are pretty smart and pretty value driven when it

715
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,960
comes to picking their you know, picking their spots because

716
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,119
you know what you're going to see Adam Hendrix in

717
00:34:52,199 --> 00:34:53,800
a twenty five K, You're probably also going to see

718
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:54,280
him an eight.

719
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:55,639
Speaker 1: Hundred dollars buying tournament at the win.

720
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:58,519
Speaker 3: So a lot of these guys are like that, and

721
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,519
I don't see him gone crazy and dusting off you know, all.

722
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 1: This money day.

723
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:13,039
Speaker 2: Young Lee began playing poker in twenty twenty one, so

724
00:35:13,159 --> 00:35:16,199
he's like he's the rookie. He's, as far as I'm concerned,

725
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,239
does have one hundred and forty eight K in live

726
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,880
tournament aarings ahead of this one five five figure scores.

727
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:25,760
His best result was at the ws AP he cashed

728
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,239
in a twenty twenty five three K no limit events

729
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,239
so earlier this summer. He has three career disopy cashes,

730
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:36,119
making his fourth. It says that he's planning to donate

731
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,840
winnings to improve poker in South Korea. Now, I don't

732
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:43,119
know if that's like all the winnings, some of the winnings,

733
00:35:43,199 --> 00:35:48,480
but still an honorable cause there. He's the new kid

734
00:35:48,559 --> 00:35:52,280
on the block. I don't know much about him, you know,

735
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,159
other than kind of what his bio says. You know,

736
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:57,960
he's obviously seems like he's been playing pretty solid. I

737
00:35:58,039 --> 00:36:02,079
don't recall really seeing him too involved in the streams.

738
00:36:02,599 --> 00:36:04,280
I've watched a lot of the coverage for the past

739
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,440
couple of days. I don't think he's been, you know,

740
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:09,800
totally active. But that's kind of good when you can

741
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:11,159
kind of just fly under the radar.

742
00:36:11,559 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 1: This is me table.

743
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 3: He's definitely you know, we don't really like to root

744
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,639
specifically for players, you know, being on the media side,

745
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,280
I feel like we always tend to root for storylines

746
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,880
or we root for the industry as a whole, and

747
00:36:24,119 --> 00:36:26,239
he kind of fits that that industry one. You know,

748
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,559
we talked about what is the best result for poker

749
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,400
to grow, to grow the game, it's it's probably a

750
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:34,719
woman winning, you know, is it someone from Japan or

751
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,920
South Korea or you know, back in the day we

752
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,920
were sharing for like South Americans, et cetera. So you know,

753
00:36:40,039 --> 00:36:42,440
that's the storyline that kind of follows him, especially if

754
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:46,480
he's going to reinvest potentially some or all of this

755
00:36:46,599 --> 00:36:50,079
ten million dollars into the poker ecosystem in South Korea.

756
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,800
You know, we you've talked often about the Japanese players

757
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,039
this series are just kind of taking over. Well, you know,

758
00:36:55,159 --> 00:36:56,679
what does this lead to the you know, what's the

759
00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,679
ripple effects? Say twenty twenty eight, twenty twenty nine, are

760
00:36:59,679 --> 00:37:01,559
we going to see a whole wave of you know,

761
00:37:01,679 --> 00:37:05,039
South Korean players flooding the WSP and kind of taking

762
00:37:05,119 --> 00:37:05,840
over and.

763
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:09,320
Speaker 2: Then rounding out the table. We have Jared Minguiney, a

764
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:13,239
poker player from West Virginia. He has around one million

765
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,639
in earnings, five WSP circuit rings. That's pretty good. He

766
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:21,280
does reside in Lake Tahoe. Adrenaline junkie loves snowboarding, surfing,

767
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:25,960
and dirt biking. He was trying to qualify for the Olympics,

768
00:37:26,119 --> 00:37:29,440
I believe for snowboarding, but then an injury derailed that.

769
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:34,639
After the injury, which I believe ended his career as

770
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:39,360
it pertained to professional sports and snowboarding, he turned into poker.

771
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,960
He got seriously into poker, and now here he is

772
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:46,480
on poker's the vegest stage. He wants to honor his

773
00:37:46,639 --> 00:37:50,639
late brother's memory through his poker success. He likes staying focused,

774
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:54,159
present and hungry at the table, and his routine includes

775
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:58,519
fresh air and mental clarity. So that is rounding out

776
00:37:58,519 --> 00:38:00,280
the found taine. But you got the chip counts, Yeah,

777
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:04,440
in like in order. Obviously John Wasnaki is the chip leader.

778
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:07,480
Believe he has one hundred and eight million. Why don't

779
00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:09,280
you give it to us from number one to number nine?

780
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, as you mentioned, John does have a only player

781
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,039
with over one hundred million, one hundred and eight million,

782
00:38:17,119 --> 00:38:21,119
one hundred That is good for a total of sixty

783
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:22,400
eight big blinds.

784
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 2: They're going to be playing still eight hundred thousand, one

785
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:26,760
point six million.

786
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, about another hour, I think.

787
00:38:30,039 --> 00:38:34,159
Speaker 3: Then basically got Michael Mizrahi Braxten done away pretty closely grouped.

788
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,880
Ninety three million for the Grinder, ninety one point nine

789
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,960
for Braxton. That's basically fifty eight and fifty seven big blinds.

790
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:45,000
Little drop here, Kenny Hallett eighty million, five hundred thousands,

791
00:38:45,039 --> 00:38:48,480
fifty bigs. And then this is where we really sink down.

792
00:38:48,519 --> 00:38:51,480
We got Leo Marjett's she's in fifth place fifty three

793
00:38:51,519 --> 00:38:54,880
point four, Luka Bojovik fifty one million, Adam Hendrix seventh

794
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:57,320
plays forty eight million. So those three client, you know,

795
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,679
tightly group and then we're looking at Da Hung Lei

796
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,880
th four point nine and Jadmin Jeanie twenty three point six.

797
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:06,239
So I would expect to see, you know, those those

798
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,840
middle stacks Leo, Luca and Ada and Adam really just

799
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,760
kind of waiting out looking at that ice, him trying

800
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:15,079
to lighter up a few spots while you know, John

801
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:19,199
and especially Grinder and especially Braxton probably going to try

802
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:22,599
and pressure everyone else. The problem here for Braxton is

803
00:39:22,639 --> 00:39:25,280
his position is he see at the table, Remember he's

804
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:29,239
see three. He got John and Grinder on his immediate left,

805
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:32,760
so he's raising into the bigger stacks he's going to

806
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:35,280
have a really tough spot, you know, to try and

807
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:36,920
chip up. He may have to kind of stick around

808
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:38,719
and play a little little bit more snug.

809
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 2: I think we're going to see a big part early

810
00:39:41,119 --> 00:39:44,239
between Braxton Dunoy and Michael mcsrocky.

811
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 1: That's what I think we're gonna say. Really, Okay, I

812
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:47,360
don't think.

813
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:51,039
Speaker 3: Those guys give a shit. Grinder definitely doesn't. Braxton though

814
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:53,559
it's a big moment, there's a big spot for him.

815
00:39:53,599 --> 00:39:56,320
He may but hey, this ten million dollars up top.

816
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,960
I understand, I understand, h but I don't know.

817
00:39:59,039 --> 00:40:00,400
Speaker 2: I feel like I feel like the those who are

818
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:02,320
going to tangle and it's gonna be a big clash,

819
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,119
and that's what we're gonna see that, Like, that's gonna

820
00:40:04,119 --> 00:40:07,719
be kind of the early like story from this final table.

821
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,360
Speaker 3: So I think, you know, I think we may see

822
00:40:11,199 --> 00:40:13,519
Adam Hendrix go one of two ways. I think he

823
00:40:13,639 --> 00:40:16,840
may say, hey, I'm better, I'm the best player here.

824
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:19,639
I'm going to take the spots with I think it's

825
00:40:19,679 --> 00:40:21,639
the spot or do we see him, you know, I

826
00:40:21,679 --> 00:40:22,159
sit around.

827
00:40:22,159 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna go. Really, I think he sits back.

828
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:27,079
Adam Hendricks yeah.

829
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 3: And then if you're Jared mn Jeanie, you got fifteen bigs,

830
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,440
you showed a stack, you got a million dollars in

831
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,320
the pocket. That's a lot of ski passes up in

832
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:39,440
like Tahoe. You know, you may just say whatever. I'm

833
00:40:39,559 --> 00:40:41,960
kind of free willing. Now, maybe I'll find the A

834
00:40:42,119 --> 00:40:44,920
six off suit and just get it in. Maybe, but

835
00:40:45,159 --> 00:40:46,440
I don't think he's going to do that with the

836
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:50,199
ACE six off suit. Okay, So we had twenty four

837
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,760
players that came back. We lost Richard Fritez first, Sebastian

838
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:58,599
Schultz after him in twenty third, Stephan Nemtz in twenty second,

839
00:40:59,119 --> 00:41:04,760
Thomas Schwartzburg in twenty first, Schwarzburg twenty first. This year thirtieth,

840
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,320
last year amazing. Twenty first. This year was three hundred

841
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,440
and sixty K. Thirtieth, last year was three hundred K.

842
00:41:09,559 --> 00:41:13,599
So incredible back to back runs for Tomas Schwarzburg. Chris

843
00:41:13,679 --> 00:41:20,000
Dombrowski twentieth place, Diego Palons nineteenth, Muhammed Parati eighteenth, Daniel

844
00:41:20,559 --> 00:41:24,480
Ecan probably butchered that last name. I'm sorry, Daniel seventeenth,

845
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:30,039
Serjio Veloso sixteenth, Latar Guero the Plo God fifteenth, Reuben

846
00:41:30,119 --> 00:41:38,039
Carrera fourteenth, Maxim Pisarenko thirteenth, Joe Ozamauk twelfth, the legendary

847
00:41:38,159 --> 00:41:42,280
Tony Greg eleventh, and then Joey Pedrone. We already talked

848
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:46,599
about him tenth, not Josh, by the way, Joey. Yeah,

849
00:41:46,679 --> 00:41:50,239
Tony Greg did well, obviously, the legendary player. Doesn't play

850
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:53,519
poker as often as he once did, but looks like

851
00:41:53,599 --> 00:41:58,159
he hasn't lost a single step. Comes out here, finishes eleventh,

852
00:41:58,519 --> 00:42:02,119
collects seven hundred and fifteen thousand dollars. What else on

853
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,320
the on the main event?

854
00:42:05,599 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 1: What else you want to talk about? What else you got?

855
00:42:08,079 --> 00:42:08,119
Speaker 7: Like?

856
00:42:08,199 --> 00:42:09,840
Speaker 2: What are your what are your thoughts? What are your takes?

857
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,159
What's your I don't know, tell me something.

858
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:14,840
Speaker 3: I think this is the best fountain we've had in

859
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,639
a long, long time. And what I mean by that

860
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:22,039
it's got It's got kind of everything we always want.

861
00:42:22,079 --> 00:42:24,639
We've got five countries represented. Okay, Tack, well, I'm not

862
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:25,679
there and that's what I wanted.

863
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:27,599
Speaker 1: Well shout that. Yeah, I would have wanted that too.

864
00:42:27,639 --> 00:42:31,119
But let's let's be real. We have a woman.

865
00:42:31,519 --> 00:42:34,199
Speaker 3: It's been as you mentioned, this is the storyline. It's

866
00:42:34,199 --> 00:42:37,360
been way too long. That box is ticked. We have

867
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:41,519
not just a notable name, we have multiple notable names.

868
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:45,400
We obviously got Grinder, you know, seven time Bracele.

869
00:42:45,199 --> 00:42:50,800
Speaker 1: Winner Grinder, Grinder Grinder, Adam Hendrix another notable name.

870
00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,679
Speaker 2: Obviously you don't need more wristbands for Grinder's reel.

871
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:54,159
Speaker 1: Yeah they're not.

872
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, we can talk about that too. Kenny Hallett been

873
00:42:57,519 --> 00:43:01,320
there before, you know, obviously a big name in Europe.

874
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:04,440
He's been around poker a long time. We've got who's

875
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:12,119
the lugger that finished second? Come on the ivy, Come on.

876
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 2: Now, you made me blank on it. Everyone out there

877
00:43:15,559 --> 00:43:18,920
is yelling everyone Richard for sure. Okay, but we have John,

878
00:43:19,119 --> 00:43:22,920
John warn Moon, Dovin Moon. I'm not saying John Wisnock

879
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:24,480
is terrible poker, but I'm saying we have the older

880
00:43:24,559 --> 00:43:26,760
gentleman that kind of doesn't belong.

881
00:43:27,119 --> 00:43:29,079
Speaker 1: He's got chips. What do you mean he doesn't belong?

882
00:43:29,559 --> 00:43:31,440
Speaker 3: No, I'm saying we're looking at these We got big names.

883
00:43:33,119 --> 00:43:36,880
You know what, You're right, that's McCarthy out there. Come on, man,

884
00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:40,239
you're right. But like we got that storyline, we got

885
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,920
the South Korean you know, we want that that that

886
00:43:43,079 --> 00:43:46,000
country that where we can have poker boom and we

887
00:43:46,079 --> 00:43:48,000
have a bit of everything. We've got the sad this

888
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:49,679
you know, a little bit of a sad story with

889
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,159
Jared and he and his brother. We have this final

890
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,400
title does everything. It's it's beautiful.

891
00:43:54,599 --> 00:43:56,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it is a really good found table.

892
00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:00,840
I think probably slotting in Tony Greg, you know, probably

893
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,559
would have made it a little bit better. But either way,

894
00:44:04,119 --> 00:44:07,079
it does have a bit of everything. I think just

895
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:11,480
getting Miss Rocky and Margetts there is enough to make

896
00:44:11,559 --> 00:44:15,719
this really really really compelling and draw in people that

897
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:17,360
are kind of on the fringe of poker.

898
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 6: You know.

899
00:44:18,039 --> 00:44:21,760
Speaker 2: Miss Rocky just has those you know, he'll bring in

900
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,920
the people that are talking about the nostalgia strings, you know,

901
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:26,920
who are thinking of like the old stars of the

902
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,639
game because Miss Rocky, you know, during the Poker Room

903
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,440
was one of the biggest stars, if not the biggest

904
00:44:32,559 --> 00:44:35,320
for a time. And then obviously, you know, we talked

905
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:37,320
about it every single year, like is a woman going

906
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:37,639
to make it?

907
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 1: Is a woman going to make it? Is a woman

908
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:39,400
going to make it?

909
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:42,199
Speaker 2: Well, finally we have it, So let's see what that

910
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,000
ultimately does for the game. I can only imagine that

911
00:44:45,039 --> 00:44:48,599
it does positive things. So we'll see how those things

912
00:44:48,679 --> 00:44:53,719
play out. I think the best result, like entertainment wise, headlines,

913
00:44:54,119 --> 00:44:58,760
pr whatever is probably miss Rocky versus Marget's heads up.

914
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,719
But you know, there's obviously a lot of storylines, and

915
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:04,079
I'm just excited to watch it all play out. I'm

916
00:45:04,159 --> 00:45:08,039
also I was very much enjoying the coverage today without

917
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:11,679
look soof. I thought it was great, really enjoyed Jeff

918
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,079
and Brent souf at this table. Oh my god, it

919
00:45:14,079 --> 00:45:17,079
would have been great. Now No, I'm happy it's I'm

920
00:45:17,119 --> 00:45:20,119
happy he's he's gone. Jeff and Brent were great. Nick

921
00:45:20,199 --> 00:45:23,519
and Ali were incredible. Still thinking Nick is just gonna

922
00:45:23,519 --> 00:45:26,159
punch Ali at some point. Can't wait for that to happen.

923
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,679
What's the plan for the uh streaming for this sort

924
00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:30,039
of stuff?

925
00:45:30,159 --> 00:45:32,519
Speaker 3: All right, guys taking a day off, so going to

926
00:45:32,559 --> 00:45:35,440
do some interviews? Why go do some interviews?

927
00:45:35,559 --> 00:45:37,760
Speaker 1: Playing guys? I thought this was a game of endurance.

928
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:40,760
Give him some sleep, but playing for ten million dollars.

929
00:45:41,119 --> 00:45:48,599
Speaker 3: Tuesday July fifteenth, three pm Pacific, six pm easton final

930
00:45:48,639 --> 00:45:49,400
table begins.

931
00:45:50,039 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 1: I'm good dot com?

932
00:45:51,119 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 2: Now is there a plan for like stop at three

933
00:45:54,119 --> 00:45:56,239
stop at four or is it kind of just see.

934
00:45:56,079 --> 00:45:59,280
Speaker 3: How it's a very see how it goes. But I

935
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:01,559
would say some where around that three or four players

936
00:46:01,559 --> 00:46:03,719
will stop. Will kind of be how quick it gets

937
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,800
down to three? Looking at these chip stacks, I think

938
00:46:07,079 --> 00:46:09,360
it smells like we're going to get down to three

939
00:46:09,679 --> 00:46:11,280
and then they'll come back the next day, same time,

940
00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:15,519
same place, try and conclude that final table, play down

941
00:46:15,639 --> 00:46:19,719
to the winner. So it's kind of the streaming plans. Now,

942
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:24,760
if you're in town, well, come on, there's two big

943
00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:29,239
screens with the live feeding off today. Yeah, there was

944
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:33,320
chairs as a bar here. The atmosphere is awesome. If

945
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,840
you want to go into the stage, though, you've got

946
00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:38,199
no chance. These players and they get eight wristbands. Now

947
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,800
you said, Luka Pujoviks bringing a whole plane from Serbia.

948
00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:42,719
Speaker 1: I mean that's what it's Okay, he's got eight. He's

949
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:44,119
only like eight people back. That's gonna be.

950
00:46:44,079 --> 00:46:46,599
Speaker 2: Pretty I don't I don't understand why it's only you.

951
00:46:46,639 --> 00:46:48,559
Speaker 1: Know, why they say, okay, I'm going to let me

952
00:46:48,639 --> 00:46:50,239
do some master requid. It's ridiculous.

953
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,679
Speaker 2: Each person needs to be allowed like thirty, there's seventy

954
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,960
two seats up there. Why are there only seventy two seats?

955
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:00,159
Speaker 1: Again? Bring me back to the Pentinellar theater. You need

956
00:47:00,199 --> 00:47:02,000
to be aild a big sage. Seventy two seats? Can

957
00:47:02,119 --> 00:47:04,280
we do this? Isn't there a theater divided by nine?

958
00:47:05,599 --> 00:47:10,079
Is seventy two? Nine players? Is heat? Yeah? There you go? Yah?

959
00:47:10,119 --> 00:47:13,880
But isn't there a theater here? Did you believe theater? Yeah?

960
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:17,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's actually pretty nice there. Yeah, we could do it.

961
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,599
There should maybe the set? Should we carry the set over?

962
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:21,079
Speaker 6: Right?

963
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:24,199
Speaker 1: Yeah? Piece by piece will do it right now? No,

964
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,519
but I mean it just seems like, you.

965
00:47:26,559 --> 00:47:28,800
Speaker 3: Know, that's the main reason, right, they have a set.

966
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:30,679
We can't just relocate it overnight.

967
00:47:31,079 --> 00:47:31,239
Speaker 5: Now.

968
00:47:31,559 --> 00:47:34,199
Speaker 3: The difference with Penn and Teller is what four months, wait,

969
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,039
three months wait or something, Right, we can dismountle the

970
00:47:37,079 --> 00:47:39,519
set and move it. So that's just a different time,

971
00:47:40,039 --> 00:47:41,079
different way of production.

972
00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:44,760
Speaker 2: And you know, I just feel, yeah, I just I

973
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:48,719
just don't like how people on these rails get shut out.

974
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:50,960
Speaker 3: The way the way you could actually do it is

975
00:47:51,039 --> 00:47:52,960
you build two sets. You have this set, then you

976
00:47:53,039 --> 00:47:54,960
build a final table set. That's the best way to

977
00:47:55,039 --> 00:47:55,159
do it.

978
00:47:56,159 --> 00:47:57,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think you could just allow more

979
00:47:58,159 --> 00:47:58,840
people in there.

980
00:47:59,599 --> 00:48:03,400
Speaker 3: It is five hazard and I guess we'll get from

981
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:05,679
million fine, millions and millions of dollars.

982
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:07,480
Speaker 1: So that's why it's their rules, not ours.

983
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:09,920
Speaker 3: I understand you at me. Yes, we would let we'd

984
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:12,199
let the flub gates open, let everybody in there. Bot

985
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:15,360
when we don't have to pay those fines coming out

986
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:16,000
of ass salary.

987
00:48:16,519 --> 00:48:20,079
Speaker 2: Everyone's guaranteed one million dollars. The next two pay jumps

988
00:48:20,119 --> 00:48:22,519
are worth a quarter of a million dollars each, two

989
00:48:22,599 --> 00:48:25,280
hundred and fifty thousand dollars one point two five million

990
00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:28,280
for eighth, one point five million for seventh. Then the

991
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,320
pay jumps start to get a little bit larger. You

992
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:32,400
go up to one point nine million, so a pay

993
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,480
jump of four hundred k from seventh to sixth. From

994
00:48:35,599 --> 00:48:39,360
sixth to fifth you jump five hundred k, and then

995
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:43,199
from fifth to fourth you jump six hundred k. And

996
00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:46,079
you get up to three million dollars for fourth place,

997
00:48:46,119 --> 00:48:48,800
and it's three million for fourth, it's four million for third,

998
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,880
it's six million per second, and then of course first

999
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:57,079
place ten million dollars. The wspre Maion Event final table

1000
00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:01,159

Speaker 1: Twenty seven. Okay, yeah, moving on.

1050
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:42,039
Speaker 3: Eight hundred do deep sec day one today whatever were

1051
00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:43,840
We weren't touching that til tomorrow. But they had twenty

1052
00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:46,840
eight hundred players three k pels Sorry, that's the eight

1053
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:48,719
hundred deepsack, the one that I said we should play,

1054
00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:49,920
and then you're like, no chance in hell.

1055
00:51:50,199 --> 00:51:53,199
Speaker 1: They made the money though today I believe I think

1056
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:53,800
they should have.

1057
00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:58,639
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, yeah, four hundred and twenty yeah uh and

1058
00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:02,519
the final event three k pelo six Max Josh Ledeen's

1059
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:04,920
Lead's that. That's also day one day in one thousand

1060
00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:08,000
and eighty eight players down to one ninety eight, so

1061
00:52:08,679 --> 00:52:10,679
a lot of stuff going on. Didn't really feel like

1062
00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:12,840
that because this room was fairly empty. But on the

1063
00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:15,880
day off Monday, July fourteenth, we're gonna have two more

1064
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,800
events beginning, we're gonna have the fifteen hundred closer Day

1065
00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:20,760
one A, we're gonna have the twenty five k horse

1066
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:23,199
high Roller, and then after that there's just two more

1067
00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:24,960
events five k to them and hold them one K

1068
00:52:25,159 --> 00:52:30,920
Turbo the most importantly WSP main event, Finyl Table.

1069
00:52:31,039 --> 00:52:33,239
Speaker 2: I mean, that's really the only thing that matters. I

1070
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:36,679
know it's not, but it's the it's the priority. Of course,

1071
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:40,639
it's in the top of our minds. Again, I can't

1072
00:52:40,679 --> 00:52:42,199
freaking wait for this one to play out.

1073
00:52:42,559 --> 00:52:43,039
Speaker 6: You got a.

1074
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:46,960
Speaker 1: Prediction, early prediction on who you think is gonna win.

1075
00:52:47,679 --> 00:52:49,440
It's hard to go past grinder, Bet.

1076
00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:52,159
Speaker 2: I mean I feel the same way. I mean, he

1077
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:57,119
just looks like he's feeling it. Yeah, absolutely feeling it.

1078
00:52:57,239 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 3: I really need to know if if I can get

1079
00:53:00,519 --> 00:53:04,119
told that he was at the place that he was

1080
00:53:04,199 --> 00:53:07,000
going to night until nine thirty am, then he's gonna win.

1081
00:53:07,079 --> 00:53:09,000
But if he backs out early, he goes home, goes

1082
00:53:09,039 --> 00:53:09,400
to bed.

1083
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:11,199
Speaker 1: And like six, tries to switch it up, tries to like,

1084
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:13,079
don't come back to normal. Know you wanted to just

1085
00:53:13,119 --> 00:53:13,639
be starting.

1086
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:17,119
Speaker 3: He's doing espresso Mountaine's at the bar right here. He

1087
00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:18,800
needs to keep doing that. If he keeps doing that,

1088
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:20,960
he's going to win. If he tries to be all

1089
00:53:21,079 --> 00:53:24,440
like normal, no chance, he's dead. He's dead in fourth.

1090
00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:27,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I I think I kind of feel

1091
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:31,199
the same way, to be honest, you know, he just

1092
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:33,840
needs to keep whatever the hell is working, Just just

1093
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:38,280
keep doing the doing Rinder. Seems like that's what's clicking,

1094
00:53:38,519 --> 00:53:41,039
that's what's got you done. I feel like it's going

1095
00:53:41,119 --> 00:53:45,079
to be a hard time for anyone to be Grinder.

1096
00:53:45,159 --> 00:53:47,159
But of course, you know, kind of anything can happen

1097
00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:49,079
in this thing. We know how good some of these

1098
00:53:49,079 --> 00:53:52,079
other players are even just getting to this point. I

1099
00:53:52,119 --> 00:53:55,480
think everyone is a very capable player, and I wouldn't

1100
00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:56,360
be surprised if.

1101
00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:57,119
Speaker 1: Any of them won.

1102
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,360
Speaker 2: That said, it just to me, it just feels like

1103
00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:05,960
Grinder is playing the most free and we obviously know

1104
00:54:06,039 --> 00:54:07,880
how good he is when he's in that sort of

1105
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:11,960
state of mind, you know, and that builds into things

1106
00:54:12,079 --> 00:54:15,639
like making big calls, reading opponents, talking them into things

1107
00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:17,920
like whatever. So I don't know, I feel like he's

1108
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:21,159
going to be a handful. That said, you know, there

1109
00:54:21,199 --> 00:54:23,960
could be some sort of like i'll say, blow up,

1110
00:54:24,039 --> 00:54:26,760
not in this like maybe more of like a mistake,

1111
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,280
a bad play, a punt or whatever like, that's certainly

1112
00:54:29,679 --> 00:54:33,920
something that Grinder could fall into, right. I'm also interested

1113
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:38,559
to see how Leo Marguetz comes out of the gate.

1114
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:42,679
I'm I can't imagine you don't feel the pressure of

1115
00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:47,360
being the first woman in thirty years to make the

1116
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:49,199
main of n fil table. I'm talking about like today,

1117
00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:51,400
as you're playing down and you're getting so close. I mean,

1118
00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:54,000
everyone's human, like, so I'm sure you have to feel

1119
00:54:54,039 --> 00:54:58,320
that at some point right now, does that pressure continue

1120
00:54:58,519 --> 00:55:01,119
into the final table? You know, well one if it

1121
00:55:01,199 --> 00:55:03,320
even was there, or you know, does she feel pressure

1122
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:06,159
at the final table thinking like, Okay, I can't just

1123
00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,920
make it, I need to like perform, Like how much

1124
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:11,159
of that how much of a let.

1125
00:55:11,079 --> 00:55:14,800
Speaker 1: Down would be if she busted first? I don't think

1126
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:17,199
there is any she made it. No, I've been waiting

1127
00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:17,920
for her to get there.

1128
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:20,519
Speaker 2: I understand, But I'm not saying it's It's necessarily not

1129
00:55:20,639 --> 00:55:24,039
what we think. It's it's how she feels. I think

1130
00:55:24,159 --> 00:55:27,159
she is hoping, like I think she's just wanting to

1131
00:55:27,159 --> 00:55:30,679
get to fifth. She wants to tie it tie. So

1132
00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:33,239
then if you say that, then that means that she

1133
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:34,440
might feel pressure.

1134
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:36,480
Speaker 3: You saying, I think she does feel pressure. I don't

1135
00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:38,800
think she should feel pressure. I think she's made it,

1136
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:41,679
and that is the achievement we've been waiting for since

1137
00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:44,920
nineteen ninety five. And I don't think she's going to

1138
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:47,840
lose any respect or anything from anybody that you know,

1139
00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:51,079
if she I say, flame out, but not really, but

1140
00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:54,280
she busts in ninth. I don't think the storyline is

1141
00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:57,480
like lay on my jets, missus opportunity. It's going to be,

1142
00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:00,519
you know, the storyline is still the same. She made

1143
00:56:00,519 --> 00:56:03,960
the final table first time since Barbara, and right, you

1144
00:56:04,039 --> 00:56:05,880
can't take that away from her, No, I.

1145
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:06,760
Speaker 1: Agree with you.

1146
00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:08,920
Speaker 2: I'm just trying to, you know, think about how she

1147
00:56:09,119 --> 00:56:12,599
might feel going into it and if that would affect

1148
00:56:12,639 --> 00:56:14,880
her play at all. You know, I already mentioned I

1149
00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:18,119
think Braction Dunaway and Michael mis Rocky are gonna probably

1150
00:56:18,639 --> 00:56:21,519
clash early. I just feel like their styles, Like, I

1151
00:56:21,599 --> 00:56:24,519
don't feel like these guys are ones to back down

1152
00:56:24,559 --> 00:56:27,159
from one another. I mean, they played a pretty crazy

1153
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:30,480
hand today with they both had King four and they

1154
00:56:30,519 --> 00:56:33,280
were not in the blinds, So I mean, like, I

1155
00:56:33,599 --> 00:56:35,800
just don't think these two are one to back down.

1156
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:40,119
They're gonna play as they see fit. They're gonna get aggressive,

1157
00:56:40,159 --> 00:56:42,800
they're going to put the pressure on, and you know,

1158
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:45,280
it's kind of like a game of Chicken between those two.

1159
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:49,360
Speaker 1: So I'm looking forward to that somewhat early.

1160
00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:52,159
Speaker 2: Like I wouldn't be surprised if they just play some

1161
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:54,280
sort of like fifty million ship pot kind of like

1162
00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:57,199
right out of the gate, while you know, Jared mcguinea

1163
00:56:57,280 --> 00:56:59,320
is over there sitting like, yeah, guys, just get grown

1164
00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:02,239
nuts please, you know, because I could maybe collected turn

1165
00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:04,800
fifty Kate pay jump. I think Adam Hendricks is just

1166
00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:09,480
gonna really pick his spots. Like I think he obviously

1167
00:57:09,599 --> 00:57:13,719
understands the moment, he understands the pay jumped. He's well experienced,

1168
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,159
he's well eclipped for this sort of thing. Like you know,

1169
00:57:16,199 --> 00:57:19,039
I don't think there's any sort of reason for Adam

1170
00:57:19,079 --> 00:57:22,599
Hendricks to take any unnecessary risks. I think he's gonna

1171
00:57:23,519 --> 00:57:25,880
I think he's gonna try and maneuver, is how I

1172
00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:29,559
would say. I have no idea what to expect from

1173
00:57:29,559 --> 00:57:34,000
the chip leader, you know, just because we don't know him,

1174
00:57:34,239 --> 00:57:36,239
and I know he rose to the Chip lead, but

1175
00:57:37,079 --> 00:57:40,639
he didn't seem like he was like overly aggressive throughout.

1176
00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:42,880
So I think I think Wa Wasnack is just gonna

1177
00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:44,960
be pretty solid. I would expect Kenny to be solid

1178
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:47,239
as well. So so yeah, I mean, I'm just I'm

1179
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:48,840
looking forward to it all. I think it's gonna be

1180
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:50,719
a lot of fun. But my big thing is I

1181
00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:53,480
think we see a clash early between Braxton Dunaway and

1182
00:57:53,519 --> 00:57:57,280
michaelms Rocky. That's my kind of big prediction that I'm

1183
00:57:57,280 --> 00:57:57,679
sticking with.

1184
00:57:57,840 --> 00:57:59,880
Speaker 1: But you got any community cards?

1185
00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:00,639
Speaker 6: Do not?

1186
00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:05,320
Speaker 2: Did you meet a Ryan who's a teacher from California?

1187
00:58:06,079 --> 00:58:09,039
I mean probably, well, I believe I met him today

1188
00:58:09,599 --> 00:58:12,320
and shout out to him playing the closer.

1189
00:58:13,079 --> 00:58:13,719
Speaker 1: Do you get a hat?

1190
00:58:15,199 --> 00:58:15,239
Speaker 6: No?

1191
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:17,599
Speaker 1: But he didn't ask for one, So I didn't give him.

1192
00:58:17,599 --> 00:58:20,480
Speaker 3: Off an ask because I think I don't think people

1193
00:58:20,679 --> 00:58:22,480
think that we were out. So I'm like, hey, do

1194
00:58:22,519 --> 00:58:23,119
you want a hot Oh?

1195
00:58:23,199 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 1: I thought you're out. Yeah, I'll take one. You know,

1196
00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:26,719
I don't ask. Well, he can always come and get one.

1197
00:58:28,559 --> 00:58:30,599
That's it. You're good. We're fighting tomorrow. We're going to

1198
00:58:30,639 --> 00:58:31,199
take the day off.

1199
00:58:31,599 --> 00:58:33,360
Speaker 2: Hell no, we're not taking the day off. Plus there's

1200
00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:35,440
nine thousand other events going on we'll have somebody to

1201
00:58:35,639 --> 00:58:36,039
talk about.

1202
00:58:36,079 --> 00:58:37,639
Speaker 1: I think we should wrap up the World.

1203
00:58:37,519 --> 00:58:40,360
Speaker 2: Series maybe, but the World Series is no over, so

1204
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:41,880
I don't know what else are we gonna do it.

1205
00:58:42,039 --> 00:58:43,719
I don't know we can talk about all the other events,

1206
00:58:44,199 --> 00:58:46,880
all right, So so it's good, all right, Well this
