Speaker 1: Hello, everyone, Welcome back to a new episode of the
Speaker 1: Poker Go Podcast. My name is Donnie Peters. His name
Speaker 1: without the sleeves is Tim Duckworth. What happened to your sleeves? Buddy?
Speaker 2: I was running errands before he came. I was gonna
Speaker 2: go for a run.
Speaker 3: You go in re public like that, Yeah, it's Costco,
Speaker 3: It's fine.
Speaker 2: And I was like, whatever, we're recording a pod. I
Speaker 2: can go with the tank.
Speaker 1: If I was. If I saw you like that at Costco,
Speaker 1: I would say, who is this toolbag? That's what That's
Speaker 1: what I would say. I would say, who's this toolbag with?
Speaker 1: I don't know, It's just you know, it's just kind
Speaker 1: of a thing. I don't know, it's just the thing
Speaker 1: I would I would think you were a tool bag.
Speaker 1: I don't really know what's wrong with it. It just
Speaker 1: makes me feel like you're a toolbag? Got it? That's
Speaker 1: just how it is, all right? This episode, I'm basically
Speaker 1: gonna give in to Tim. Okay, just so everyone knows.
Speaker 1: All this guy wants to talk about is PGTPGTS. And
Speaker 1: I'm like, it's boring. It's boring. It's boring. I can't
Speaker 1: talk about schedules events dates. It just drives me nuts.
Speaker 1: So we're putting my twist on it. Okay, we're gonna
Speaker 1: have some freaking fun with this one. Whether you like
Speaker 1: it or not, I hope you came prepared. Now. If not,
Speaker 1: I mean that that's your own fault. You're only making
Speaker 1: yourself look bad, Okay, and it's fine because you're making
Speaker 1: me look better. No big deal. So we're gonna have
Speaker 1: some fun with some PGT talk. Of course, the second
Speaker 1: half of the PGT season is about to kick off.
Speaker 1: It is Thursday, August twenty eighth. It is four or
Speaker 1: nine pm. The second half of the season, or where
Speaker 1: we deem as the second half of the season kicks
Speaker 1: off on Monday, September first, so right around the corner
Speaker 1: from here. This will probably drop at some point over
Speaker 1: the weekend, so you know, you guys should have it
Speaker 1: in your feeds, on your YouTube channels or on your
Speaker 1: YouTube screens. Of course, before that first event for the
Speaker 1: PGT Bounty Blitz, the first ever PGT Bountying Blitz. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I talked about the stuff that Tim wants tuck about,
Speaker 1: which is the boring, non exciting stuff. It's just whatever.
Speaker 1: I can't stand it. So what we're what we're gonna
Speaker 1: do is this guy has been putting out lists on
Speaker 1: social media, on PGT dot com, talking about the PGTS,
Speaker 1: all time point earners, final tables, cashes, earnings. Well, I
Speaker 1: don't know, I don't even know. He's got a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of stuff that's been going out there. So we're
Speaker 1: gonna I'm I don't know if I talked about it
Speaker 1: on this podcast or if we talked about it off air,
Speaker 1: but I said at some point I want to do
Speaker 1: like poker players and match them with wrestling. Okay, so
Speaker 1: we're gonna do it right now, because why why the
Speaker 1: heck not? You know, I gotta have some fun with it.
Speaker 1: We gotta have some sort of gimmicks. So this is
Speaker 1: what we're doing. We're gonna take these PGT guys, these players,
Speaker 1: these like all time greats per the PGT stats, and
Speaker 1: then we're gonna match them with a wrestler, and we're
Speaker 1: gonna make the case as to like why this is
Speaker 1: this person's wrestling alter ego. There's no really right or wrong.
Speaker 1: We might tell each other that we're right or wrong
Speaker 1: and it's ridiculous, but the whole time, the whole thing
Speaker 1: is ridiculous.
Speaker 2: How many are we doing?
Speaker 1: So we basically we have eight names that we're gonna
Speaker 1: run through and we're gonna sign them a wrestler. I'll say,
Speaker 1: we get four, I'll take on this for sure. I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: well we'll see. I mean, some are I think probably
Speaker 1: gonna be spot on, some are gonna bess well, then
Speaker 1: you're just weird. So some are gonna be probably quite outrageous.
Speaker 1: But again it's the whole point of it. We're just
Speaker 1: gonna have some fun with this one. And then of
Speaker 1: course I will keep Tim happy. I will let him
Speaker 1: run through the schedule, the dates, the buy ins, all
Speaker 1: that sort of nonsense, the boring stuff, but we're gonna
Speaker 1: keep that to the end of the pod. Also on
Speaker 1: this episode, we're gonna do a little PGT fantasy because
Speaker 1: we like going against each other, so why the heck not,
Speaker 1: So that's going to be on this episode as well.

Speaker 1: rules and details can be found at pokergro dot com
Speaker 1: slash rules. All right, are you ready? Are you prepared?
Speaker 1: I'm not prepared.
Speaker 3: I just want to say that if we had done
Speaker 3: say the Mount Rushmore poker players for this, or like
Speaker 3: the non PGT guys, this a lot of better comparison.
Speaker 1: Sure there is, but I wanted to bring it all PGT.
Speaker 1: You want to talk PGT, so you know, we'll just
Speaker 1: we'll just do PGT stuff.
Speaker 3: So, okay, I was trying to think, Okay, could I
Speaker 3: find people that look the same.
Speaker 2: That's that's tough. I mean sure, so I went different way.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, well, first things first, I do want to
Speaker 1: talk about some of these leader boards because we are
Speaker 1: entering the second half of the season. So, and this
Speaker 1: is kind of how we're going to determine the eight
Speaker 1: people that we're going to talk about. So PGT all
Speaker 1: time points leaders are Steven Chidwick is number one with
Speaker 1: seven and ninety six. Alex Foxen is second pretty close
Speaker 1: five and twenty eight. Then there's a little bit of
Speaker 1: a gap between fox And and Sam Silverll is number three,
Speaker 1: Daniel Legranu is number four, and Jeremy Osmos is number five.
Speaker 1: I think I was a little surprised to see Ozmas
Speaker 1: is high here because I feel like he got a
Speaker 1: later start to his PGT success to some of these
Speaker 1: other guys. I thought I would see maybe Sean Winter
Speaker 1: or Nick Shulman be be up in the top five,
Speaker 1: but they're not. But they're close, but they're not in
Speaker 1: the top five. I was surprised that Alex Foxon was
Speaker 1: as high as he was. Actually that kind of was
Speaker 1: a bit of a shock to me. I wasn't, but
Speaker 1: that's because I had surprised as it relates to Alex Foxen,
Speaker 1: like before looking at some PGT stuff, like you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know, a year or two ago, and I
Speaker 1: was like, wow, he like crushes the PGT all the time,
Speaker 1: So I'm like, I'm now never surprised. Right for all
Speaker 1: time cashes, you got Alex Foxen at ninety eight. Again
Speaker 1: Alex Foxen in the lead. There, you got Negroon who
Speaker 1: right behind him at ninety seven, Steven Chidwick's at ninety three,
Speaker 1: Sam Solver rolls at ninety two, and Jeremy osmas is
Speaker 1: also at ninety two. So pretty soon we're gonna have
Speaker 1: some people get into one hundred. Yeah, I mean it
Speaker 1: could happen at this next series coming up, the PGT
Speaker 1: Bounty Blitz.
Speaker 3: Should us mention what pretty close with Childwick ten thousand
Speaker 3: nit GT points.
Speaker 1: I feel like you should get some nice plaques, you know,
Speaker 1: like when like you hit a certain milestone one hundred
Speaker 1: thousand subscribers on your YouTube Channa Hawk, you should get
Speaker 1: one of those. Okay, now, I'm not sure we can
Speaker 1: get that approved budget wise, but that would be bad
Speaker 1: ass to like hand out and Present should look into that.
Speaker 1: You know, you should do it for one hundred cashes.
Speaker 1: You should do it for ten thousand points. I think
Speaker 1: that would be cool. For all time wins, Sam Soverll twelve,
Speaker 1: Dan and mcgranul eleven, Steven Chidwick ten Alex Foxen and nine.
Speaker 1: And then you have a batch of players, four of
Speaker 1: them to be exact, tied with eight, Chris Brewer, Michael Adamo,
Speaker 1: Sean Perry, and Justin Bonhima. And you're probably kind of
Speaker 1: sensing a theme here now, Chidwick, fox and Sobroll and
Speaker 1: the Grand New Osmas. You know, they're like the guys
Speaker 1: right now. And then for earnings you got Seth Davies's
Speaker 1: number one. Yeah, he's been crushing the super high rollers
Speaker 1: as of late. Alex Foxen very very close, Steven Chidwick,
Speaker 1: Jason Kuhne, and Chris Brewer. So I think there I'm
Speaker 1: a bit surprised to see or to not see Dan
Speaker 1: and Legrono. Yes, definitely right, especially when you consider Legranu
Speaker 1: won a super high Rollible. It's not like he doesn't
Speaker 1: have those insane wins, so he did win a super
Speaker 1: high rollable. So a little bit surprised not to see
Speaker 1: Dnax there, but you know, he's not too far off
Speaker 1: at all. And then Seth Davies just just rushes here.
Speaker 1: His number is eighteen million, nine and twenty four thousand,
Speaker 1: so I mean he could easily get to twenty million
Speaker 1: pretty soon. So not the cool thing. So from the
Speaker 1: list of points Cash's wins and earnings, here are the
Speaker 1: names that I pulled out for us to do the
Speaker 1: wrestler comparison. Steven Chidwick He's on every single list that
Speaker 1: I just named, right, Yeah. Alex Soxsen is also on
Speaker 1: every list that we just went through. Sam Soverall he's
Speaker 1: not on the earnings list, but he's on the other ones.
Speaker 1: I'm still he's great. Negrau new is not on the
Speaker 1: earnings list, as I just talked about, but he's on
Speaker 1: the other ones. Jeremy Osmas also not on the earnings list.
Speaker 1: He's also not on the wins list, which I'm a
Speaker 1: little bit surprised to see.
Speaker 2: But you forgot one list which was my favorite. Just podiums.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not doing that nonsense. We don't hear, we listen.
Speaker 1: We're not like the summer in the little league baseball
Speaker 1: team celebrating second place finishes. That's not what we do.
Speaker 1: Okay for everyone out there, they need to know, like you,
Speaker 1: who was wrong following Yeah, because you probably saw a
Speaker 1: parade and you're like, oh, they won, they didn't win shit, Okay,
Speaker 1: you want to know what they won? They won like
Speaker 1: the United States part of the bracket. That's it's what
Speaker 1: they want. No, it's not. Because the Little League World
Speaker 1: Series the world and they lost to Chinese type, so
Speaker 1: that's what happened. They did not win. They ultimately got
Speaker 1: second place, and we're out of here passing our participation. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's good. It's not parade worthy. Good, it's just
Speaker 1: not that's just not how it is. Okay, you're like,
Speaker 1: you got to keep the kids hungry. You have metal.
Speaker 1: I don't care what they get. They got a freaking parade.
Speaker 1: They should not get any it's pretty cool. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: it's ridiculous. It's just ridiculous. Who did I just talk about? Oh,
Speaker 1: Jeremy Seth Davies, we're gonna use him. We're gonna use
Speaker 1: Jason Kuhne as well, and then Chris Brewer. So those
Speaker 1: are the eight that we're going to go through. How
Speaker 1: do you want to do it? Do you want to
Speaker 1: just go like one one?
Speaker 3: Like?
Speaker 1: What? Yeah? Sure?
Speaker 2: Why don't we just walk down the list. That's fine,
Speaker 2: here's what we're gonna do.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go yes, random number generator baby one through eight,
Speaker 1: number eight, Chris Brewer, God, who you got that?
Speaker 3: Was the one I left to last, and I kind
Speaker 3: of gave up on I also left it to last.
Speaker 3: I went into order, And the problem with Chris Brewer
Speaker 3: is I couldn't really think of a good comparison because
Speaker 3: I was thinking, you kind of get A doesn't play
Speaker 3: a whole ton of volume, plays the big stuff. Sometimes
Speaker 3: he's all in, sometimes he's I couldn't really think of
Speaker 3: the rest. And the thing that kept coming to me
Speaker 3: was I recently uploaded Super High Rollerball episodes, old ones,
Speaker 3: and it was the time when Chris Brewer was going
Speaker 3: out his mullet, and all I could think.
Speaker 1: About was his mullet.
Speaker 3: And I was struggling, like, what kind of who could
Speaker 3: I could I give himself?
Speaker 2: Rollins could I get? I couldn't think of a good one.
Speaker 3: And I just gave in to the looks and I
Speaker 3: kept him in the back of my head. I kept
Speaker 3: seeing I kept seeing one wrestler. And it's not an
Speaker 3: insult at order Chris Brewer about anything or the rest
Speaker 3: I'm going to name.
Speaker 2: I couldn't stop seeing Hacksaw Jim Duggan.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Now I had no idea you were
Speaker 1: going to go Hacksaw Jim Duggan here. It was a
Speaker 1: little bit maybe maybe maybe me saying four of the
Speaker 1: same might be way over.
Speaker 3: There was a little bit of you remember val Venus
Speaker 3: when he had the malat he had the town.
Speaker 1: I was a little bit of sid vicious in that.
Speaker 1: When you start talking about the mold, I thought you
Speaker 1: were going to go on, uh no, Dusty Rhodes Nah,
Speaker 1: kind of kind of a mold though, But I just
Speaker 1: thought that that's where you're ultimately going to go the mallet.
Speaker 3: And obviously you have to be the brown blonde, so
Speaker 3: you have to rule out Eddie Guerrera dumb, you know,
Speaker 3: don't make mysterial, all those kind of guys. But no
Speaker 3: offense to you, Chris, No offense offense to to Hacksaw.
Speaker 3: But that's all I couldn't get. I couldn't get the
Speaker 3: comparison out of my mind. So that is Chris browis alter.
Speaker 1: You go to me, all right, I mean, listen, you
Speaker 1: make the case. That's the whole point of this. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I went with now this one, if you're
Speaker 1: going to talk about looks, and I wrote, you know,
Speaker 1: I put down a bunch of notes with this. I said,
Speaker 1: you know, the look of these two, if you were
Speaker 1: to put them next to each other, is not not
Speaker 1: gonna be like a thing like You're gonna be like,
Speaker 1: why does this apply? And I went with cmpunk. Okay,
Speaker 1: Now my reasoning is this, I don't really think that
Speaker 1: either of them look like a stereotypical star, right, but
Speaker 1: I think their mindsets like I think and watching you
Speaker 1: know what was the what was the ww like mini
Speaker 1: docu series that just came forget what the hell it
Speaker 1: was called. But I don't know, I got a bit
Speaker 1: of like cerebral mindset, like studied about cmpunk that I
Speaker 1: may necessarily not have known, which I think Brewer is
Speaker 1: obviously one of the most elite minds in the game,
Speaker 1: like you know, extremely studied, commitment to the game, all
Speaker 1: that sort of stuff. Punk is I think, you know,
Speaker 1: always been one of the best in the world. Maybe
Speaker 1: doesn't have like that popularity or that notoriety that some
Speaker 1: other people would, you know, But and they went through
Speaker 1: this in that whole like mini docu series, look up
Speaker 1: the freaking name of that before I lose my mind,
Speaker 1: where basically like he all he wanted was like his
Speaker 1: unreal he wanted his And it's on Netflix for everyone.
Speaker 1: Who likes wrestling, highly encourage you to check it out.
Speaker 1: Even if you're on the fringe, I would highly enourage
Speaker 1: you check it out be cause I think it's very
Speaker 1: well done. Punk was always that guy who like and
Speaker 1: he talked about it there. Well, he wanted his shot,
Speaker 1: he wanted his big moment. Right for Brewer, you had
Speaker 1: a lot of that where like he was so close
Speaker 1: so often in so many big spots, and it just
Speaker 1: never worked out, like bad beats, you know, whatever it
Speaker 1: may be, it just ultimately never worked out for Punk.
Speaker 1: Remember he like got out of poker first, I got
Speaker 1: out of wrestling like he like literally got out of
Speaker 1: wrestling for like he like quote unquote retired for like years.
Speaker 1: Not Brewer went and get a real job, like got
Speaker 1: out of well okay, yeah, but whatever. I came back.
Speaker 1: Punk came back and got his spotlight at wrestling. Brewer
Speaker 1: came back and immediately started to win everything under the
Speaker 1: sun and took off right obviously capped off by the
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty k super High Roller win at
Speaker 1: the w s a P. So, like there's there's that
Speaker 1: parallels there, you know. So so that's where I went
Speaker 1: with this, you know where you know, there's that kind
Speaker 1: of parallel to things. So that's how I thought about
Speaker 1: this one, and that's where I am with Chris Brewer.
Speaker 1: So Chris Brewer is cempunk from me and he is
Speaker 1: hacksaw chim dugging for you, which is absolutely incredible. All right,
Speaker 1: next random number generate here seven Jason Kuhn. Baby, this
Speaker 1: is I struggled with him today. Struggle. This was snap
Speaker 1: obvious to me, Like, why don't you f s all right?
Speaker 3: The Rock, No, okay, I'll count you break it down
Speaker 3: peak physical form.
Speaker 1: I'll give you that. Both these guys are absolutely freaking
Speaker 1: chiseled out of their minds. They love fitness. I don't
Speaker 1: know how many freaking Instagram stories I've seen with the
Speaker 1: Rock in this gym. We know Jason as well is
Speaker 1: all about the gym and health and fitness, and he's
Speaker 1: absolutely shredded and all that sort of stuff. There's that
Speaker 1: former athlete derailed by injury. The Rock in college had
Speaker 1: all those injuries with football. I think Jason Kuhon it
Speaker 1: was tracked and I think it was a hip. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it was a hip. So either way, you know,
Speaker 1: former athlete derailed by injury, The Rock let me hit
Speaker 1: on this part first. I think I think kind of
Speaker 1: like bigger than life personalities when it comes to wrestling.
Speaker 1: The Rock is certainly bigger than life. When it comes
Speaker 1: to poker, I think Jason Kunn is kind of like
Speaker 1: low key bigger than life. He's very charismatic. You might
Speaker 1: not think it because he's not always in the spotlight.
Speaker 1: Jason Kuhn, but like as soon as you put a
Speaker 1: camera in his face, says the right things, very personable,
Speaker 1: like you know, all that sort of stuff. Maybe he's
Speaker 1: not as big as Daniel Legrandu. But again, if you
Speaker 1: stick the spotlight on Jason Kuhon, if you put a
Speaker 1: camera on him, if you put a microphone in front
Speaker 1: of him, he's certainly in no way, shape or form.
Speaker 1: Does he seem out of place? I also got and Tim.
Speaker 1: Tim is looking at the picture right now now without
Speaker 1: me even saying this, but I thought of that photo
Speaker 1: from Jason Kuhn would have been is that super? But
Speaker 1: he looks like he looks like the Rock does now
Speaker 1: with this whole end boss look like the end boss
Speaker 1: of a drug cartel. I mean, it's just it's just crazy.
Speaker 1: We'll get producer Rich to put it up now. I'll
Speaker 1: also say that the Rock right now, the Rock does
Speaker 1: not pop into wrestling all that often. He doesn't do
Speaker 1: the raws and all this other stuff. Jason Kuhn, he's
Speaker 1: not getting out for the raw ten thousand dollars PGT event. No,
Speaker 1: he's super high rollable WrestleMania. That's it. And that's that's
Speaker 1: my thing. Like you need the big dog to come in,
Speaker 1: you call the Rock, right, there's a fifty k Okay,
Speaker 1: Jason Kuhn's there, Hunter k Boom, He's there. So so
Speaker 1: that's my sort of like he's he's certainly a star,
Speaker 1: but he's not always there like Nigron is always there,
Speaker 1: got it, but he's no there no matter what I mean, Yeah,
Speaker 1: might skip the five k's yes, but he's like kun
Speaker 1: is like no, it's got to be big enough. The
Speaker 1: draw has to be attractive enough for me to come
Speaker 1: and me that's Jason Kuhn. And then at the end
Speaker 1: of the day, I think a lot of people, like
Speaker 1: I know, we throw around the whole end boss thing.
Speaker 1: I mean, the Rock in a way is like he's
Speaker 1: got the whole end boss thing, Like at least right now,
Speaker 1: for sure, Jason Kuhn is the fucking end Boss. I mean,
Speaker 1: come on, he is the end boss of endbosses. So
Speaker 1: that's my guy. The Rock is Jason Kuhn.
Speaker 3: A lot of things you brought up I agree with,
Speaker 3: but you got to remember this, Dwayne. If you're listening
Speaker 3: at home, you quit on us, You quit on the
Speaker 3: wrestling fans, you left.
Speaker 1: You're gonna say each quit on the PGT and it's like,
Speaker 1: what are you talking about.
Speaker 3: You quit on us to go make Hollywood movies like
Speaker 3: The Tooth, very great movie, but you quit on us.
Speaker 2: Jason Kuhn hasn't quit on us, Okay, I don't know.
Speaker 2: So that's why I couldn't give him the Rock.
Speaker 3: Now, one person I could argue, you know, I kind
Speaker 3: of want to change my pick, but I'm not going to.
Speaker 2: But when you said the Undertaker.
Speaker 1: It's when did I say Undertaker? Sorry?
Speaker 3: When you said no, when you're talking about how he
Speaker 3: only comes out for the big moments, Yeah, I immediately
Speaker 3: thought of the Undertaker, right, because you know, Vince would
Speaker 3: only use him for like WrestleMania spot in some other spots.
Speaker 3: You know, you could kind of give Jason Kuhn like
Speaker 3: that kind of thing. But with the glasses. When I
Speaker 3: see these glasses. When I was doing you know, episodes
Speaker 3: the other week of Super High Rollerball, all I could
Speaker 3: think of was, who has the best glasses.
Speaker 2: In WWE history?
Speaker 1: Do you know who that is?
Speaker 3: Who has the most iconic pair of sunglasses? I know
Speaker 3: he's on your list because I say his name, I'm
Speaker 3: blanking Brett. Oh yeah, manh yeah. Best glass got to
Speaker 3: wrap around purple shades. You know, That's what I thought of.
Speaker 3: And then I started thinking a little bit more about
Speaker 3: Brett Hart. Right, fan favorite, without a doubt, one hundred
Speaker 3: percent fan favorite, Jason Kuhn fan favorite, Jason kun probably
Speaker 3: one of the most thudyed poker players, most technically perfect poker.
Speaker 1: Player out there. What was Brett Hart?
Speaker 3: Same, same, same when it came to wrestling, technically proficient,
Speaker 3: submission moves, new or one of the best wrestlers of
Speaker 3: all time. And although it's a little throwing it back
Speaker 3: a little bit, you know, you know, we're talking about
Speaker 3: w W days, w c W here Breath the hit
Speaker 3: Man Heart. That to me was where I drew the
Speaker 3: comparison Jason Kern, Bret the hit Man Heart one world titles.
Speaker 3: He's obviously won a bunch of stuff, and that's that's
Speaker 3: my mind.
Speaker 1: Don't hate it. Yeah, but Jason jun is bigger than
Speaker 1: Brett the hit Man heart in my opinion.
Speaker 3: I do kind of I would want to try and
Speaker 3: work the Undertaker, you know, because although he was a hero,
Speaker 3: everyone loved him. You know, he's got this villain Look,
Speaker 3: Jason Kuhn comes out for the big ones just like
Speaker 3: Undertaker did.
Speaker 2: It's not enough for me. I'm gonna stick with hit Man.
Speaker 1: All right, RNG five. Jeremy Osmas, I'll take this one first,
Speaker 1: all right, go ahead.
Speaker 3: Jeremy Osmas has no comp right, nothing here we go right, No, hair,
Speaker 3: I can't do it.
Speaker 2: He's just kind of an every day.
Speaker 1: You really leaned into the hole every day.
Speaker 3: Look, because that's the first one were going to get
Speaker 3: to Zimmelka. But I thought about Jeremy Osmus a bit more.
Speaker 3: You kind of touched on like someone like Daniel Ground
Speaker 3: and plays all our events. Jeremy Osmus one of the
Speaker 3: highest volume players, plays plow, plays no limit, plays mix.
Speaker 3: He'll play a five K, he'll play a three hundred K.
Speaker 2: He's a workhorse. So that's I think.
Speaker 3: Who are the workhorses of the WWE you know right
Speaker 3: now you talk about you know, Seth Rowlands, Okay, work horse,
Speaker 3: but Seth Rowlands a little bit of a heel, right,
Speaker 3: a little bit of a you know, a little bit
Speaker 3: of heat at the moment. So you have to think
Speaker 3: good guys, right, the good guy and he's also dad
Speaker 3: has some kids at home. So what wrestler, good guy
Speaker 3: loved by everyone has some kids.
Speaker 1: I'm real, I'm really thinking this might be the first
Speaker 1: one we have. This is the same, but see where
Speaker 1: you go work.
Speaker 3: Losse plays everything fan favorite not just like he can
Speaker 3: also be part of any main event, right, Jeremy Osmas
Speaker 3: will play everything you might have seen at three hundred
Speaker 3: final table, Mus say him at a three k final table,
Speaker 3: just like this wrestler. He can main event WrestleMania, right,
Speaker 3: or he can be the first match on Raw. That
Speaker 3: is Daniel Bryan. Wow, No, I did not. We're not
Speaker 3: gonna so Daniel Bryant.
Speaker 1: First at first I thought it was who I have, Okay,
Speaker 1: then I thought it was the guy I was possibly debating,
Speaker 1: and it's neither of them.
Speaker 3: Okay, He's won the World Championship four times, Osmus.
Speaker 2: You know we talked about the wins.
Speaker 3: He's not up there, he's not on the he doesn't
Speaker 3: have twelve like Sam several, he has a few. You know,
Speaker 3: we talked about he's like cold streak of winning. But
Speaker 3: Daniel Bryan, there was a long storyline with Triple h
Speaker 3: and and all these guys before he got his moment
Speaker 3: at WrestleMania. And that's my that's my comperison, Jeremy Osmas
Speaker 3: Daniel Bryan.
Speaker 1: All Right. I went with the most popular babyface in
Speaker 1: all of wrestling right now, and that's Cody Rhodes. Okay,
Speaker 1: And to me, Jeremy Osmas is the babyface of poker,
Speaker 1: A total good guy, a total good guy. He's got
Speaker 1: the looks, he's a family man. He's resilient, which I
Speaker 1: think parallels well with Cody Rhodes. One of the things specifically,
Speaker 1: and I've talked about this, you know about when we
Speaker 1: drafted Jeremy Osmas for twenty five K fantasy is always
Speaker 1: showing up with a smile on his face, no matter
Speaker 1: what's going on. I feel like Cody Roads is always
Speaker 1: kind of showing up with a smile on his face,
Speaker 1: you know, getz that respect from his peers. No matter what, honest, likable,
Speaker 1: you got the clean cut aspect.
Speaker 2: He's got a skull tattooed on his neck.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but still he's still a babyface. He's still so
Speaker 1: the skull on the neck. For Cody Rhodes, I would
Speaker 1: liken to the fact that people have told me that
Speaker 1: they are in group chats with Jeremy Austmas and he
Speaker 1: is the most ruthless one in the group chat, which
Speaker 1: you might not think, right, you might on the surface babyface,
Speaker 1: but behind closed doors he's coming at you, you know,
Speaker 1: with razor blades. So I also think that you know,
Speaker 1: Cody Rhodes, he like was grinding, grinding, grinding, grinding, and
Speaker 1: then it wasn't until more recently, you know, he got
Speaker 1: back into w W. He did the whole finish the
Speaker 1: story thing, Hey, WrestleMania whatnot. I mean, Jeremy Oliss for
Speaker 1: a very long time was like grinder, grinder, grinder, grinder,
Speaker 1: kind of no one knew who he was like, and
Speaker 1: then he finally had the breakout. I mean, you can
Speaker 1: kind of go two ways with his breakout because he
Speaker 1: kind of had like two breakouts in a weird career way.
Speaker 1: One was the ws Manament Final table, right, Yeah, but
Speaker 1: then after that so that's not us then then when yeah,
Speaker 1: but then you know, like after that, like yeah, he's
Speaker 1: a name, but then he like started to take to
Speaker 1: the high roller scene and then he started to really
Speaker 1: break out again, you know in a way like we're
Speaker 1: become more popular and more out there. So that's why
Speaker 1: I have I have Jeremy osmas.
Speaker 2: Is Cody Rhoads. Can I pick the next number?
Speaker 1: No, we're doing random number generary. What's wrong with you? Six?
Speaker 1: That was the one.
Speaker 3: I was the main reason I wanted to say, it's
Speaker 3: Seth Davies and that's who I have his Cuddy Roads. Okay, okay,
Speaker 3: now the way I have it, you you what you
Speaker 3: said all makes sense. The way I see Cody Rhods is,
Speaker 3: you know, family man, Seth Davis, family man, Cody Rhodes
Speaker 3: is the number one at the company right now.
Speaker 1: He's probably been brought back, he has sent it to
Speaker 1: the top.
Speaker 3: He's center down, he's he's in all the main event storylines,
Speaker 3: and I think his last eighteen months he has been
Speaker 3: you know, the number one star on WWE. I guess
Speaker 3: you could say, you know, maybe paired with Seth Rollins
Speaker 3: or reman Rains for Cody Roads. Number one guy who's
Speaker 3: had the biggest eighteen months on the PGT Seth Davis,
Speaker 3: s Davis. So that was the comp I had. I
Speaker 3: was looking at results and storylines. What is what is
Speaker 3: Seth davis storylines of the last eighteen months? Won the
Speaker 3: twenty five K PGTPLO series, He won the Super High
Speaker 3: Roller Bowl in Cyprus, won the Super High Roller bol
Speaker 3: PLO here, he won the two hundred and fifty K
Speaker 3: at the World Series and his first bracelet. Four of
Speaker 3: the say, top ten biggest events on the PGT he's
Speaker 3: won in his last eighteen months were really in his
Speaker 3: last you know, thirteen months or whatever it is. So
Speaker 3: that was where I saw the the symmetry with Cardie
Speaker 3: Rights and Seth Davis.
Speaker 1: All Right, I mean I can totally see it. I
Speaker 1: went with John Cena. Here's here's why. So I'm looking
Speaker 1: at Seth Davies and I was like, he's out of
Speaker 1: this group of eight that we have. I said, he's
Speaker 1: got the most bro energy about him. And I was like,
Speaker 1: John Cena is the bro guy. Like he's he's the bro.
Speaker 1: So that that's why I immediately went to Sena I
Speaker 1: also know that Seth Davis is very like fitness driven,
Speaker 1: especially much more recently in his life. Sena has always
Speaker 1: been very fitness driven. It's actually, you know why he's
Speaker 1: kind of like leaving wrestling because he feels like he's,
Speaker 1: you know, he can't take it much more health wise,
Speaker 1: so he's like, you know, I'm not just going to
Speaker 1: stick around to him like sixty. So you know, I
Speaker 1: think Sena does value his health in the same sort
Speaker 1: of way that Davies values his health. Now, the tug
Speaker 1: of war that I was kind of playing here is
Speaker 1: that maybe Davies isn't as much of a big personality
Speaker 1: in poker as John Cena is in wrestling, you know.
Speaker 1: But then I say, Seena has always had this never
Speaker 1: give up mentality. You know, he's like this fan favorite,
Speaker 1: never give up, all that sort of stuff, where I
Speaker 1: feel like Davies has just been like never give up.
Speaker 1: And I think that was emphasized if you guys saw
Speaker 1: the winter interview that we did with him after he
Speaker 1: won the bracelet this summer, you know, like kind of
Speaker 1: getting into like that never give up mentality, and even
Speaker 1: like at the start of the interview, at the start
Speaker 1: of the video and Jason Coon's talking about you know,
Speaker 1: he's just grinding every single day, grinding, grinding, grinding, because
Speaker 1: they're really good friends. So you know, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I feel like the never give up mentality really fits
Speaker 1: well here. And then you know, finally, as it relates
Speaker 1: to set Davies, you know, you spoke on like his
Speaker 1: last what one to two years, it's all just he's
Speaker 1: had all these massive, shout out, massive wins and it's
Speaker 1: all just really come together. So I also think that
Speaker 1: Sena has always just been incredibly consistent. Now in poker,
Speaker 1: that's a bit tricky because you can be consistent, but
Speaker 1: you might not win because there's variance and there's some
Speaker 1: luck involved. So it is what it is. But I
Speaker 1: still think generally every single day when Seth Davy shows up,
Speaker 1: you know what you're gonna get, like from a competition standpoint. Yeah, right,
Speaker 1: So you know I saw that that parallel as well.
Speaker 1: Another thing that I kind of did some tuggle war
Speaker 1: with in my mind, but maybe I'm a stretch here
Speaker 1: is that. And I used to be kind of like
Speaker 1: an anti seen A guy. I just didn't really like him,
Speaker 1: but I and I feel like, you know, I think
Speaker 1: there's a fair number of people out there that like,
Speaker 1: absolutely love John Cena, and that's probably the bigger number.
Speaker 1: But then there are people that are kind of like,
Speaker 1: this guy's a tool in some ways. I mean, who's
Speaker 1: this guy running around there with Geene Shortz and this
Speaker 1: and that and the other thing, Like, you know, I
Speaker 1: mean kind of like that bro mentality, Like if you
Speaker 1: don't like that, you know, it can kind of maybe
Speaker 1: rub you the wrong way a little bit. So I
Speaker 1: feel like with Davies, how I would parallel that is
Speaker 1: people might look at Davies and be like, well, he's
Speaker 1: not even a big name. Not that they don't like
Speaker 1: Seth Davies, they just be like, who is that? You know.
Speaker 1: So that's how I, you know, reconciled it in my mind,
Speaker 1: you know, the similarity and that sort of split. So
Speaker 1: I went with a with a johnsona here for Seth Davies.
Speaker 3: He said, I want to go back a bit to
Speaker 3: Ozma's and he said, there was you had Corry Rose
Speaker 3: with someone else?
Speaker 1: Who else do you have aj styles? That's why I
Speaker 1: thought you were gonna when you started talking about it,
Speaker 1: When first I thought you were for sure gonna go
Speaker 1: Courdy Rhodes, and I thought, okay, maybe he goes aj
Speaker 1: Styles three Sam. So overall this one's I love this one,
Speaker 1: go ahead. He's the only heel have we have we
Speaker 1: haven't met with any okay.
Speaker 3: And I know we're not going to imagine a couple
Speaker 3: already coming up. I view of this list, I love
Speaker 3: all these guys. He would be the closest to being
Speaker 3: a heel with you know, maybe not in public, but
Speaker 3: just some of these antics around the studio. Right, So
Speaker 3: I had to find someone that was a little heel
Speaker 3: ish but also has won a lot. Right, He's got
Speaker 3: twelve pgt titles, he leads that category. He one of
Speaker 3: the highest volume players. You'll find him in a three
Speaker 3: hundred K, you'll find him in a five K. So
Speaker 3: kind of similar to how I had Daniel Brian for
Speaker 3: Jeremyals was, I need to find someone Daniel Brian esque
Speaker 3: but a bad guy. Okay, So I had to you know,
Speaker 3: actually pulled up Wikipedia and I went down there. You know,
Speaker 3: I was looking down how many titles people would want
Speaker 3: to try and find someone that's won a lot of
Speaker 3: WWE World Championships but it was also a bad guy
Speaker 3: in one name Rayne Supreme, Randy Orton. Okay, okay, so
Speaker 3: outside of that comp you know, the little heelige. Obviously,
Speaker 3: Randy Orton has been a good guy, but I would
Speaker 3: say career is very heelish. Put him on the main stage.
Speaker 3: Can play just like Sam, can play everything. Randy Orton,
Speaker 3: He's been a doubles champ, he's been IC champ, he's
Speaker 3: been the world champ, the heavyweight champ. He's done at all,
Speaker 3: lots of wins. That was my comp there, Sam several
Speaker 3: to Randy Orton.
Speaker 1: All right. I went with Eddie Gerre and and like
Speaker 1: you kind of started off saying, like the antics, I
Speaker 1: really wanted to find someone Licht and Steel. Okay, So
Speaker 1: now I'm not saying that, and that's like a famous
Speaker 1: line the Walkout song or whatever for for Eddie Garrew.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that soul Roll is like Lion cheating
Speaker 1: and stealing, Okay, but like some of his antics, I mean, like,
Speaker 1: work with me on this part when he plays like
Speaker 1: he's like grabbing the muck, he's he's like folding his
Speaker 1: cards on top of your card, like he's acting like
Speaker 1: a fool. In a lot of ways, it's playful, it's mischievous,
Speaker 1: you know, you know, but he's also very skilled and dangerous.
Speaker 1: So like that's where I say, like the lie, cheat
Speaker 1: and steel stuff, like that's kind of where I'm at
Speaker 1: with the the Eddie Garrero and and Eddie Garrell, like
Speaker 1: he may not have the world titles, but he won
Speaker 1: lots of belts and whatnot, so you know, yeah, so
Speaker 1: there's also there's also you know, what I was doing.
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I like where this line is,
Speaker 1: let me do a little bit more research. And then
Speaker 1: there's a quote from Eddie Guerrero about how he viewed
Speaker 1: wrestling as therapy for him, which make which immediately I
Speaker 1: was like, oh, well, there's this Samsoverl Facebook post that
Speaker 1: I remember reading from, you know, a year or two
Speaker 1: ago in twenty twenty four, where he talked about he
Speaker 1: was pretty open. It was a very long post. He
Speaker 1: talked about how he long used like games, gambling, addiction,
Speaker 1: all this sort of stuff to like escape trauma, you know,
Speaker 1: and I'm you know, very you know, succinctly summarizing the
Speaker 1: whole thing. And now he's like focused on health, presence,
Speaker 1: you know, meaningful connections and all that sort of stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he still has that silliness and whatnot. So I kind
Speaker 1: of like had those parallels there, you know. So you know,
Speaker 1: on one hand, you've got Garrera, Guerrero, his his his
Speaker 1: charisma I think parallels Samsoverl's charisma in terms of like
Speaker 1: the table antics and all that sort of stuff. And
Speaker 1: then you also got the therapy comment or metaphor from
Speaker 1: Guerrero paralleling Samsoverl's acknowledgment of the games and the competition
Speaker 1: that helped ground him. So that that's where I went
Speaker 1: with that. A couple more to go. We've still not
Speaker 1: matched one, so.
Speaker 2: I think there's anthing. I think one we may match on.
Speaker 1: Well, this might be the one d N eggs number four.
Speaker 1: Oh we're not matching, Okay, go ahead. I mean Hull
Speaker 1: Cogan he's the face of poker's mainstream and like he's
Speaker 1: got Nigrany's got Hogan had like the famous catchphrases, right,
Speaker 1: Nigranny's got the catchphrases limp and his pimp in like
Speaker 1: you know, all that sort of silly stuff, the crowd energy,
Speaker 1: like you know, he's he's a freaking icon. I think
Speaker 1: that when you think of poker, there's probably a ninety
Speaker 1: nine point nine percent chance. And m Granny's the face
Speaker 1: that pops into your mind. And I think if you
Speaker 1: said resting to somebody, there's probably nine nine point nine
Speaker 1: percent chance that whole Cogan pops in your mind. I
Speaker 1: would always I would also say that Hogan's nWo era
Speaker 1: is Negran you with the whole more Rake is better era. Right,
Speaker 1: there's that. I mean you you talked about the whole.
Speaker 1: You talked about like the Samsuro might be the only
Speaker 1: heel on this list. Now, this is not my opinion,
Speaker 1: but I know what I see out there, and Hogan,
Speaker 1: at least in his recent years, like he had some
Speaker 1: comments and whatnot that people didn't agree with politics or whatnot.
Speaker 1: There's plenty of stuff that Nigraney puts out there on
Speaker 1: social media that people don't agree with him. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm not saying what side I'm on. I'm just saying
Speaker 1: that there are plenty of people that are like, this
Speaker 1: guy's wacky. He's crazy now, so like he has that
Speaker 1: kind of parallel to him. I would also say that
Speaker 1: like ho Cogan is, I don't think he's like the
Speaker 1: best technical wrestler, but like he's the best wrestler. If
Speaker 1: you understand what I'm saying, Like he's the biggest, the
Speaker 1: most famous, the most popular, right we're like Daniel, I'm not.
Speaker 1: I don't think he's like as technical as Jason Kuhn
Speaker 1: or a Chris Brewer or you know, like, but he like,
Speaker 1: if you take all of it considered, he's like the
Speaker 1: biggest total package, which I think ultimately ho Cogan was
Speaker 1: like if you look at Hogan, like his his moves
Speaker 1: in the ring were like what he body slamed people
Speaker 1: and did the leg drop, Like it's not like it's
Speaker 1: not like you said Brett Hart like has the sharpshooter.
Speaker 1: He's known as an elite tactician, Like that's not necessarily Daniel.
Speaker 1: But Daniel is like if you consider everything, he probably
Speaker 1: has the overall ranking that's like the highest when you
Speaker 1: consider charisma and all that sort of stuff built in
Speaker 1: fanfare whatever. So that's where I went with with hul
Speaker 1: Cogan here.
Speaker 3: Now, if you had said hull Cogan to Donald Bronson,
Speaker 3: I would have probably been there with you.
Speaker 1: But I'm keeping this within the context of the PGC.
Speaker 3: I know, I'm just saying, like ol Cogan is a
Speaker 3: little outdated and he also turned on w c W
Speaker 3: big heel turn for a long time.
Speaker 1: Okay, but but but in the grand you had the
Speaker 1: whole like, yeah, but this is better hold enough, this
Speaker 1: was a big heel turn.
Speaker 3: I just don't feel like that with Nigana because Nigrono
Speaker 3: has always been the fan favorite. We've we talked about
Speaker 3: this with singing vlogs. He'll pose with every picture, he'll
Speaker 3: sign every autograph.
Speaker 1: He's always been I would I would probably say the
Speaker 1: same thing with Hull Cogan. And then and then once
Speaker 1: you start digging is when you might start disagreeing with
Speaker 1: some stuff. Like I think on the surface, everyone just
Speaker 1: loves Dan and mcgranny, but then they're like, okay, maybe
Speaker 1: let me look at a social media and he might
Speaker 1: tweet something that you disagree with and why not even
Speaker 1: mean like the craziest taking the world, but like you
Speaker 1: just might be on the opposite side because everything is
Speaker 1: so polar in this world.
Speaker 2: I definitely would have liked hul Cogan to fill home with.
Speaker 1: But yeah, but again this is I'm going with I
Speaker 1: get with you what.
Speaker 2: You're say, and I agree with some of it. But
Speaker 2: the reason I just.
Speaker 1: Because I use Hulk Hogan for danielmgron who here does
Speaker 1: not mean if we do this listens I can use
Speaker 1: I would plan on using Hulk Cogan probably elter.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 3: So the way I see Daniel o'growner fan favorite, signs, signs, autographs,
Speaker 3: takes photos, always happy to chat with someone great with
Speaker 3: the media as well, great table talker. When I see
Speaker 3: table talk, I think promos Hogan was great a promo
Speaker 3: he was terrible, he was great.
Speaker 1: What are you talking about?
Speaker 3: Maybe, but I think one of the best promo cutters
Speaker 3: and the fan favorite always for everyone out there to me,
Speaker 3: was John Cena. So I want to I have John
Speaker 3: Sena as Daniel mcgara now obviously Negrano, bracelets, PGT titles,
Speaker 3: He's got it all Seena obviously in sixteen or something
Speaker 3: World Championships. That correlates the table talk, the promo cut
Speaker 3: that correlates the fan favorite. That correlates. I don't see
Speaker 3: Nigrano as a bad guy like you mentioned, but I
Speaker 3: can see that argument, that small period argument. John Cena
Speaker 3: had a heel turned for about three weeks.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Otherwise he has been the epitome of a good guy
Speaker 3: for his whole career, and that's the way I kind
Speaker 3: of see Nigrano. But that's how I paired those three.
Speaker 3: If you talk about wrestling of the last twenty years,
Speaker 3: who is the number one person in wrestling, You'll probably
Speaker 3: say John Cena. You know, you could maybe say The Rock,
Speaker 3: but he's obviously been gone from half of that. Same
Speaker 3: with Stone Cold, who's the number one, you know, poker
Speaker 3: player of the last twenty years? You probably say Danielgrano
Speaker 3: maybe feel home with So I see, those are the correlations.
Speaker 3: Johnsen is at the top of the pyramid for wrestling,
Speaker 3: Daniel Granner top of the pyramid on the PGT. So
Speaker 3: that's my cump there, Sena Nograno.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, listen, I don't I don't disagree with that.
Speaker 1: So that that's one.
Speaker 3: There was one comp that I thought but I couldn't
Speaker 3: like figure it out, was like Sean Michaels. But I
Speaker 3: was like, I couldn't get this. I just I kind of.
Speaker 1: Think and I could be totally wrong here, but I
Speaker 1: want to say that I've heard Daniel say that Sean
Speaker 1: Michaels is his favorite wrestaurant or was, so immediately I
Speaker 1: went with that, and that could just be me misremembering shit,
Speaker 1: But That's where I immediately went. I tried to like
Speaker 1: make the comp and I just couldn't necessarily do it.
Speaker 3: I watched the Shawn Michael's duck the other day on YouTube,
Speaker 3: and I forgot that he like had so much time
Speaker 3: off during like when I thought he was just at
Speaker 3: the top with d X and all that, had a
Speaker 3: couple of years off because of the back stuff. You know,
Speaker 3: obviously we had the whole Montreal screw drops, but yeah,
Speaker 3: I forgot that he was not. So that's why I
Speaker 3: couldn't give it to him. Because Daniel mcgrewn is when
Speaker 3: it comes to PGT here every day all day, playing
Speaker 3: every event, while you know, the Shaw Michael's wonn quite
Speaker 3: work because of the injuries of time off et cuch a.
Speaker 3: You know, maybe Shawn Michaels Chris Brewer could have bean
Speaker 3: maybe a slightly better comfan. My hack saw Jim Duggan.
Speaker 1: Because something something very like weird and maybe it swayed
Speaker 1: my biases or whatever, But like I just remember there
Speaker 1: was this famous like I don't even know where the
Speaker 1: clip came from, but Hoko and listening to a young
Speaker 1: Jeezy CD in his car and he kept like just
Speaker 1: replaying it at the beginning, he's like in his truck.
Speaker 1: He's like, it's just like a weird social media clip whatever.
Speaker 1: But all I could think about, like Hogan in this
Speaker 1: truck like doing this like kind of corny thing. All
Speaker 1: I could think about was two thousand and four mcgranney
Speaker 1: WINSSBY Player of the Year and he's driving that truck.
Speaker 1: And it was a segment. So I was like, I
Speaker 1: was like, this guy in a truck, this guy in
Speaker 1: a truck, and like it's you know, it's just like
Speaker 1: this like kind of cheesy segment. I was just like,
Speaker 1: this is like, this is what I'm going with. All Right,
Speaker 1: we got two people up. We got Stephen fox In
Speaker 1: and we got Alex Steven Chidwick. Yeah, Steve, Stephen Foxing.
Speaker 1: We got Stephen fox And and Alex Chidwick. I'm just kidding.
Speaker 1: We have Steven Chidwick and Alex Foxen. All right, let's
Speaker 1: go number one. Steven Chidwick.
Speaker 3: Steph Chidwick doesn't talk that much, agreed, but he's a
Speaker 3: stone cold killer.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 3: I know you don't want to talk about the podiums
Speaker 3: and the final table stats that I had, But it's.
Speaker 1: Not that I don't want to talk about certainly mention.
Speaker 1: I just was not going to list it as one
Speaker 1: of the four.
Speaker 3: Stephen Chidwick has a very good podium finish rate once
Speaker 3: he makes the final table. He has I think forty
Speaker 3: podium finishers from something like twelve or six less final
Speaker 3: tables than Alex Fox, and they're both tightened forty Stone
Speaker 3: cold Killer.
Speaker 2: On the felt doesn't say it doesn't say too many words.
Speaker 3: I'd think, Okay, who's the wrestler that's really feared very good,
Speaker 3: you know, kind of like all destruction. So I first
Speaker 3: went with it could be bruck Lesner. I was like, no, no, no,
Speaker 3: not brouck Lesner. I went with Goldberg right, doesn't really
Speaker 3: talk that much, obviously had his his huge win streak
Speaker 3: back in WCW. Chidwick's at the top of all our
Speaker 3: kind of rankings. Doesn't talk. Son called Killa. That was
Speaker 3: my comp I couldn't really get much else with the
Speaker 3: Stave and Chidwick one.
Speaker 2: Yes, that was my one.
Speaker 1: Well, I knew we weren't going to have the same
Speaker 1: pick here because you already mentioned this person. I think
Speaker 1: the nickname says it all the excellence of execution.
Speaker 2: It's a good one.
Speaker 1: Brett the hit Man Heart I mean again, the nickname
Speaker 1: says it all. Stevie is a freaking tactical surgical absolutely
Speaker 1: positively just excellent, excellent, excellent, sharp as all hell. And
Speaker 1: I feel like that's how Brett the hit Man Heart
Speaker 1: was viewed. So I think that this is Stevie without
Speaker 1: a doubt. Now you mentioned the you know, not talking
Speaker 1: a lot. I don't think Bretta him Manhart talked a ton.
Speaker 1: He talked a bit, you know, when he had to
Speaker 1: or whatever, but like he wasn't out there like the
Speaker 1: loudest or the most flamboyant person other than the fact
Speaker 1: that he wore pinking had those glasses, you know, where
Speaker 1: like Stevie, you know, he's certainly not the loudest of
Speaker 1: the most flamboyant, but he's got the respect of everyone.
Speaker 1: He shines through bright with his technical mastery. And I
Speaker 1: also had the tie of like, both are non American,
Speaker 1: but they're not American in the sense that you might
Speaker 1: think they're American because like Stevie's UK, you know, I know,
Speaker 1: if you hear him in the accent whatever, but still,
Speaker 1: you know, it's not like it's a total disconnect, whereas
Speaker 1: Brett Hart's Canadian, you know, you might if you didn't know,
Speaker 1: you might think that he's just American, right. So anyway,
Speaker 1: that's why I went with I want Brett the hit
Speaker 1: Man Heart for Stevie. And then the last one, of course,
Speaker 1: Alex Foxen. This one we might get right together. Go ahead,
Speaker 1: brock les Ye, I was torn between two people, but
Speaker 1: Roman reigns and the reason why, I guess I'll just
Speaker 1: so the reason why I went with brock Lesner over
Speaker 1: Roman Reins. So the reason why I was thinking of
Speaker 1: going Roman rains, let me say that, is because I
Speaker 1: just feel like brock Lesner is like so in your face,
Speaker 1: over the top, like rude, like and I think Alex
Speaker 1: fox at the end of the day, like while he's
Speaker 1: like physically imposing, which brock Lesner is, Alex Foxen is
Speaker 1: like super nice, yeah yeah, whereas like brock Lesner is
Speaker 1: like just a seems like an absolute freaking animal at
Speaker 1: all times, and I feel like he's like uncaged, whereas
Speaker 1: Alex Foxen is like, as you know, big as he is,
Speaker 1: you got the whole past football thing, Like he's actually
Speaker 1: not like an insane maniac like I think brock Lesner
Speaker 1: puts on.
Speaker 2: I think brock actually is outside of the ring very nice.
Speaker 1: Yeah sure, but I'm just saying, like, but the wrestler person, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know so, So I think Foxen is a bit
Speaker 1: more reserved like Roman Reigns is. But I just couldn't
Speaker 1: get over like the physically imposing nature the build of
Speaker 1: Alex Foxen when he's sitting at a table, both physically
Speaker 1: like actuality, which brock Lesner is, but then also like
Speaker 1: the way that he plays, like I feel like brock
Speaker 1: Lesner wrestles. He's certainly not the most technical, although Alex
Speaker 1: Foxen is very technical, like he certainly understands everything. But
Speaker 1: I think Alex Foxen is kind of one of those
Speaker 1: guys where he builds in a little bit more exploit
Speaker 1: than just like theory, whereas like I think Steven Shiudwick
Speaker 1: for example, is like almost straight theory all the time.
Speaker 1: It's like the perfect robot, whereas fox and I think,
Speaker 1: can do kind of some different things or tries to
Speaker 1: maybe have some live reads, Like he's fucking staring at you,
Speaker 1: like if he sends his weakness for one second, he's
Speaker 1: just attack, attack, attack, So not only is his physical
Speaker 1: presence like overpowering, but his stare is overpowering. The way
Speaker 1: he plays is overpowering. If there was a great white
Speaker 1: shark and poker, it's Alex fox Oh yeah, like it
Speaker 1: just should do animals next, Like we should do animals next.
Speaker 1: Why not? You know? But if there was a great
Speaker 1: and I know everyone says like, you know, there's sharks,
Speaker 1: there's fishes, there's whales and poker whatever, But like, if
Speaker 1: there was a great white shark and poker, it is
Speaker 1: Alex Foxen for sure. He's a predator. He strikes, you know,
Speaker 1: this scent the second the ounce, he sends weaknesses like
Speaker 1: he's just in there striking. And I feel like that's
Speaker 1: how brock Lesner like it goes about wrestling. So I
Speaker 1: went with brock Lessner here.
Speaker 3: The way I went with it was, you know, we
Speaker 3: talked about past football backgrounds. Obviously Alex fox previtaged hot end.
Speaker 3: You know, brock lesnon for the Bikings practice squad. I
Speaker 3: think there's that. There's the size of the table, you know,
Speaker 3: the physical just taking up the space. They both have
Speaker 3: kind of like a core outfit. When I say that
Speaker 3: Brocklesner loves his jeans, loves the cowboy hat, loves the
Speaker 3: cowboy boots, Alex fox and short shots, flip flops, oversized
Speaker 3: T shirt and the hat. Seems like they're their stable outfits,
Speaker 3: you know, don't talk a lot of the stuff. You
Speaker 3: also mentioned one other thing with Alex you know, obviously
Speaker 3: married to Christy Foxon brock Lesner married to Sable. There's that,
Speaker 3: you know, little little synergy there. And obviously the difference
Speaker 3: between you know, him and Stevie the size. That's why
Speaker 3: I kind of sized up with with Brock there.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's that's.
Speaker 2: The kind of kind of least we agreed on one.
Speaker 1: There we go. I was trying to.
Speaker 3: Really work mankind into this and I had him. I
Speaker 3: was trying to figure out Chris Brewer, and I.
Speaker 1: Couldn't say say I was. I was going with Chris Brewer,
Speaker 1: with Nick Foley too, but I just I couldn't, like,
Speaker 1: I couldn't get there because ultimately, like there are the
Speaker 1: three faces of McK foley, you know, and I just
Speaker 1: couldn't I think like Mick Foley might fit. Yeah, I see,
Speaker 1: I just I couldn't get there. I couldn't get there
Speaker 1: with him. So but but I also tried Mick Foley
Speaker 1: for for Chris Brewer, so if you guys have any thoughts,
Speaker 1: of course, you guys can hit us up on social media.
Speaker 1: You can leave it in the comments on YouTube. You
Speaker 1: can email us podcast at pokroot dot com if you
Speaker 1: think we're wildly off. If you enjoyed this or not,
Speaker 1: who cares. I thoroughly enjoyed it, So I was for shit.
Speaker 1: I spent probably three hours trying to figure this out,
Speaker 1: which is way too fucking long. But I loved it,
Speaker 1: like I had. I basically had like I had like
Speaker 1: two or three for each people that I meet, like
Speaker 1: kind of think like immediately jumped out to me and
Speaker 1: then I was like, hmm, I got a fine tune
Speaker 1: like obviously who it is and you know whatnot. So
Speaker 1: so yeah, the Sam's over one. He was one that
Speaker 1: I immediately when I thought of like the antics and whatnot,
Speaker 1: I immediately thought of, uh, x POC and I was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: but that doesn't really fit because like I feel like
Speaker 1: Xbox was always like a butt. He was always like
Speaker 1: a side you know thing, And so I couldn't because
Speaker 1: because sover I think is like still like very very good,
Speaker 1: you know, and like obviously it's one of the titles
Speaker 1: and whatever. Now time for PGT Fantasy. What we're gonna
Speaker 1: do is Tim and are each gonna draft five players
Speaker 1: for the rest of the PGT season for the rest
Speaker 1: of the season event Okay, but that's fine because at
Speaker 1: the end of each series right where I'm planning that
Speaker 1: we we do kind of a recap pod for each
Speaker 1: series at the end of each series, so on that
Speaker 1: we'll have like the fantasy you know, reup. Two changes
Speaker 1: are going to be made. One is that you can
Speaker 1: drop one player and add a new one. You have
Speaker 1: to drop one player, you have to add a new one, okay,
Speaker 1: and then like if you drop somebody, I can't pick
Speaker 1: that player, yes, And if you drop somebody, I can't
Speaker 1: pick them up. So it's gonna be and and that
Speaker 1: that's going to go through the whole season. So like
Speaker 1: if you drop let's say Sam SOB after the blitz,
Speaker 1: I can't pick him up for like m something much
Speaker 1: later on, right, So once the person has dropped, they're
Speaker 1: like done. I have no idea, We'll figure that out later.
Speaker 1: So yeah, you can't you have to add drop you
Speaker 1: can't keep the same five. And then also so from
Speaker 1: the other four, so you drop a player, but then
Speaker 1: you have your other four. You're gonna select two players
Speaker 1: that are untouchable, okay in your mind, and then from
Speaker 1: the other two, I'm gonna have the chance to swap
Speaker 1: one of mine with yours. Okay. So yeah, it's it's confusing,
Speaker 1: it's wacky, you know, but whatever, And we can just
Speaker 1: keep it very simple, like I don't know most points points,
Speaker 1: all right, we'll do We'll just do most points and
Speaker 1: we'll just keep it tally as we go. So do
Speaker 1: you what do you want to do for let's just
Speaker 1: random number generated, random name generate, no random number generator.
Speaker 1: You're you're one, I'm two, it's one. What do you
Speaker 1: want first pick or next two? Jeremy Riismas okay, Jeremy Olsmas.
Speaker 2: Sorry, can I change that?
Speaker 1: Sure?
Speaker 2: Daniel Bryant, I was like, what's he gonna change it?
Speaker 1: All right? I gave zero thought to this actually in
Speaker 1: terms of like picking players.
Speaker 3: Like when you told me this, I immediately thought it
Speaker 3: was per series, so I was thinking of just players
Speaker 3: for Bounty.
Speaker 2: Buttz, so I'm completely unprepared as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah you know, I mean yeah, but you also might
Speaker 1: like so in that regard, like I don't even know
Speaker 1: why I'm telling you I would never have picked Osmas,
Speaker 1: but you might also want to just like kind of
Speaker 1: lock him up. Yeah, no, I get I get it
Speaker 1: for the future, you know, so I get it, all right,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Alex Foxen. We don't think, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: but it goes you get one, I get two. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: so I got Alex Foxen and I'm going with Jeremy
Speaker 1: Becker because I know he's playing the freaking Blitz and
Speaker 1: then maybe I'll drop his eyes after Okay, you're up.
Speaker 1: I have no idea who's playing the PGT Bounty Butts,
Speaker 1: which it's a first ever series I have, Like Barcelona's
Speaker 1: just ending. There's a tritoned one series that's like starting
Speaker 1: or whatever. It's like, I have no idea, like who's
Speaker 1: actually gonna be here. I know Jamie Becker is gonna
Speaker 1: be there. Other than that, I got no clue. China
Speaker 1: rem China God. I honestly, you know, I was driving
Speaker 1: over here and I thought China Reim, I should draft him,
Speaker 1: and now I didn't, and now I'm annoyed.
Speaker 3: And now I'm gonna take Sam's overrel Okay, that's a
Speaker 3: good one too. How many were taking five.
Speaker 1: Five to you've got three. You've got Ozma, Chino and
Speaker 1: Sam Soeverll, I've got Fox and Becker.
Speaker 2: And I'm not mad we haven't named this guy yet.
Speaker 1: I know, but I don't know. I'm gonna go with
Speaker 1: Nick Shulman and I'm gonna go with I'm torn here,
Speaker 1: definitely torn him. Do you know you want Michael Ms
Speaker 1: Ryan Adam Hendricks? Wow, you're up?
Speaker 2: I got two picks, right?
Speaker 1: No? You have? Yeah? You have two? Your last two?
Speaker 1: I guess.
Speaker 2: I'm just I'm sure. I have no idea what he's
Speaker 2: probably skipping on the back.
Speaker 1: Is even here, That's what I'm saying, no idea.
Speaker 3: I know in October he's got like a golf tournament,
Speaker 3: so he may skip out of a low series or
Speaker 3: some of it. But like, do we getting from masses
Speaker 3: or is he streaming up in Canada?
Speaker 1: Like listen, I'm with you. That's why I haven't touched him.
Speaker 1: I mean, I would love to have Daniel on my team.
Speaker 1: But he's worth a pick now? Is he worth? Like
Speaker 1: the last He's like one of those guys if you're
Speaker 1: doing fantasy football, you know, because football season is about
Speaker 1: to start, that you're picking and kind of stashing you know,
Speaker 1: he's like, yeah, I don't know. He's like Rushie Rice,
Speaker 1: You're you're just waiting until the suspension's over.
Speaker 3: I know I'm going to lose him for some events,
Speaker 3: but I need him for the for the back end
Speaker 3: and take Jesse Larnas.
Speaker 1: Okay, I debated him, but I don't know what. I
Speaker 1: don't know where he's going to be in the world.
Speaker 1: All right, your last pick, pal, It's okay, rich can
Speaker 1: chop out all over the silence.
Speaker 3: Maybe I should gamble on someone for the movie's okay.
Speaker 3: So let's say I picked player X for the Boundy
Speaker 3: for the for the Bounty Blitz, they cast a five
Speaker 3: hundred points. I can just cut him run, but I
Speaker 3: guess still get five hundred points. He's pot of like
Speaker 3: your point total is just gonna like tally it. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: give me King John Riordan, King, John Reordan. Yeah, I
Speaker 3: should have drafted him. What was I thinking?
Speaker 2: I'm thinking he might be blitz and he's gonna.
Speaker 1: Play pay along. He might be here.
Speaker 2: Where is he?
Speaker 1: He doesn't leave Vega.
Speaker 3: The amount of times I've seen an Instagram video where
Speaker 3: he's like in the suite of red rock throwing potties.
Speaker 1: And stuff.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so he he he finished like first or second
Speaker 1: in a charity poker event, got it at Red Rock
Speaker 1: and that was his prize. So then he was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna use this for my kid's birthday. So he
Speaker 1: had that massive like penthouse suite with the wrap around balcony,
Speaker 1: like invited all the players. Yeah, that's why he had
Speaker 1: that sweet it. Yeah, this this is probably this is
Speaker 1: probably a stretch, but I was picking him.
Speaker 3: I was saying, Christy Foxon could be a good one.
Speaker 3: Jim Callipy could be a good one. Michael Wang, you know,
Speaker 3: they were ones. I was like thinking, you.
Speaker 1: Know what I did write down Michael Wang just now,
Speaker 1: And I was about to say it, but I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna let's team Fox and screw it. Kristen Fox. I
Speaker 1: have no idea where they are. Wasn't she streaming the
Speaker 1: other day from like Asia or maybe.
Speaker 2: She was streaming information? Maybe she was here streaming.
Speaker 1: Actually you can change I might take that back. Yeah,
Speaker 1: hold on, I'll locked this yet. Because she was talking
Speaker 1: about how they were like going to Asia, but they
Speaker 1: like booked a one way trip. She was talking about this.
Speaker 1: I can't remember when she was talking about it, but
Speaker 1: she was talking about all right, I'm going with Michael Wang.
Speaker 1: Got trust my gut is my first pick, Michael Wang.
Speaker 1: Let's go all right? So I want to gro on
Speaker 1: you Chidwick. I have no idea what Chidwick is either,
Speaker 1: like I would want to dras someone like David Coleman,
Speaker 1: like mister second Place. I get second place and everything.
Speaker 1: But is he coming back?
Speaker 2: Then you can pick him up for poker exactly.
Speaker 1: So I have Alex Fox and Jeremy Becker, Nick Schulman,
Speaker 1: Adam Hendrix and Michael Wang. You have Jeremy Osmon's cheeering,
Speaker 1: Sam so Overll, Jesse Lonis and John the King Reorder.
Speaker 3: My biggest warri Lonus, is he gonna like skip the bounty,
Speaker 3: He's gonna skip Pokermasa's uh and then just come back
Speaker 3: for the PLO series. The problem I have for you
Speaker 3: is Hendrix he's getting married, so he'll drop him after bounty.
Speaker 3: So yeah, no, he's getting married during the Venetian event.
Speaker 1: Yeah he's bounty.
Speaker 3: He's not playing the Venets. But well he's a good
Speaker 3: one to have for the PLO. So it's like, do
Speaker 3: you keeping just in case? Like do you just hold
Speaker 3: on him, so.

Speaker 1: on the PGT. This is what you want to talk.
Speaker 2: About, baby, It's it's busy. There's like fifty events.
Speaker 1: There's a lot.
Speaker 2: It's a lot of events.
Speaker 3: Starting Monday, September one, the inaugural PGT Boundy Blitz Series,
Speaker 3: six events.
Speaker 1: You shouldn't say inaugur inugur is the right word. You
Speaker 1: don't know what's going to happen.
Speaker 2: Oh, what's happening again?
Speaker 1: Okay, buddy, you don't know if we're going to be
Speaker 1: alive next year.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'll take my business and start the Tim Duck Tour.
Speaker 3: Five different bounty events. So we're gonna start standard knockout.
Speaker 3: You've not say six tournaments, six tournaments, five unique bounty events,
Speaker 3: five K buy ins. Two K of the prize pool
Speaker 3: goes to the bounties. First event, Standard knockout, I knock
Speaker 3: you out, you give me two K. Event two new
Speaker 3: it's called an escalator, different bounties. As you progress in
Speaker 3: the tournament starts pretty low, five hundred, moves up to
Speaker 3: one thousand, then moves up to the rest p KO.
Speaker 2: Everyone knows that, mistery Bownie. Everyone knows that.
Speaker 3: And the quatro is a very very common in Europe,
Speaker 3: not that common here in America. But that's basically. Boundy
Speaker 3: started twenty five percent of the field and it's worth
Speaker 3: four x. So Ak Bownie is their new trophy. Cool trophy.
Speaker 3: It's the skull, the Boundy, the logos, the PGD Bowny
Speaker 3: Blitz logo skull. Trying something new there with some you know,
Speaker 3: three D printing. Originally we're going to do a treasure
Speaker 3: chest and that's why we have these like eight hundred
Speaker 3: dollars bills. They were going to go in the treasure chest.
Speaker 3: So the trophy became kind of a bit more bit
Speaker 3: more to it, but we made a late switch. We've
Speaker 3: still got one hundred dollar bills with Maury's face on
Speaker 3: it and Carry's face on it, so and your and
Speaker 3: my face on it.
Speaker 1: Two.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it would be a little prop I'm assuming do.
Speaker 1: They know about those?
Speaker 3: No, Okay, that's kind of going to be great. That's
Speaker 3: the PGD Boundy. But it's had a lot of requests
Speaker 3: for this. See how it goes. We're not really expecting
Speaker 3: anything crazy, but you never know. You never know what
Speaker 3: to put on the schedule, So we'll see how that goes.
Speaker 3: Another new event kicking off September eleven, the PG Venetia
Speaker 3: Las Vegas Classic. It's thirty three hundred dollars buying three
Speaker 3: starting flights, million dollar guarantee. Each flight plays down to
Speaker 3: the money. First time this has ever happened. It's a
Speaker 3: thirty three hundred dollars with a RAKE discount two hundred dollars.
Speaker 1: This is the coolest thing about this tournament. I plan
Speaker 1: on playing in this tournament. Rake discounts. You know, we've
Speaker 1: obviously done them on the PGT I think other places
Speaker 1: have done them as well, but at this price point, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't think anyone's done them. So this is great
Speaker 1: get out, on time, get in. Yeah, and this is
Speaker 1: one of those things that selfishly the player and me says,
Speaker 1: I hope this catches on. I know it ultimately takes
Speaker 1: some money out of the operator's pockets, but I think
Speaker 1: operators do pretty well, especially with in general. I think
Speaker 1: Rake is kind of increased everywhere, so if they can,
Speaker 1: you know, give a little bit back here with the
Speaker 1: on time discount for this type of price point. I
Speaker 1: think it's incredible. Like I would love to see this
Speaker 1: for wpts. I would love to see it for other
Speaker 1: various price points epts, you know, napt whatever it may be.
Speaker 1: But the various price points are the various tournaments that
Speaker 1: hit this price point. I think it's great. So it's
Speaker 1: not it's not a zero rake. It's still one hundred
Speaker 1: dollars to the rake, but it's yeah, you know, discount
Speaker 1: discount one third. So it's great new event. We're seeing
Speaker 1: how it goes.
Speaker 3: Everyone's going to play down the money come back on
Speaker 3: day two, which is Sunday, September fourteenth. I know some
Speaker 3: people out there that listen, you know, mister David odib
Speaker 3: Baker kind of said, well, why are we day two
Speaker 3: on Sunday? Well, kind of we wanted, we want to
Speaker 3: fly it on Saturday, so we kind of have to
Speaker 3: do this. The good thing is if you're missing some football,
Speaker 3: it will be on on every TV in the Venetian
Speaker 3: Plus you'll also be in the money, so it's a
Speaker 3: good excuse to not be on your reclient er at home,
Speaker 3: you know, sorry, odb Along with that PGT Las Vegas
Speaker 3: PGT Venetian Las Vegas Classic.
Speaker 1: There are also three five K high rollers.
Speaker 3: Got the rake discount there of two hundred dollars that
Speaker 3: they are on Sunday Monday Tuesday of that event. Now
Speaker 3: that all leads into the Pokemons and for the first
Speaker 3: time of the Poke Masters, we are doing a multi
Speaker 3: flight opening event called the Pokemaster's Million Dollar Showcase.
Speaker 1: I named it. Yeah, I think you did two flights.
Speaker 3: A million dollar prize will guarantee you play down to
Speaker 3: the money come back on day two. Also on the Sunday.
Speaker 1: I'm going to play that one too good. I hope
Speaker 1: you win, so do I and so do I? So
Speaker 1: do I will. I usually always list action on poker stake.
Speaker 1: I will, No, I will for these two events. So
Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's not up there now, but you know,
Speaker 1: stating stuff Russian, it'll be out there. Yeah, of course
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, not you know also that we didn't match with Antionian.
Speaker 3: But there's lots of opportunities for you to startlite in
Speaker 3: for I think three hundred and fifty dollars Poke Masses.
Speaker 1: Eight eighty esian. There are the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there are a satellite each day there and then there's
Speaker 1: the five sixties for.
Speaker 2: The pokem masses.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a five set guarantee on the eighteenth Thursday,
Speaker 3: September tenth. Then there is some two seat guarantees on
Speaker 3: the Friday that and there's another two seat guarantee for
Speaker 3: event too.
Speaker 1: Five K opening event.
Speaker 3: Never done this before, a little bit of worry, a
Speaker 3: little bit of we're getting a show, no sweat, but
Speaker 3: until we hit a million dollars, we never know. Then
Speaker 3: the normal schedule, normal schedule of the playdown and the
Speaker 3: final table starts. We have ten events in this series.
Speaker 3: The opening events are five K, the second event is
Speaker 3: a five K. Then we're up to tens, fifteen to
Speaker 3: finished with the twenty five K finale. Most players the
Speaker 3: most PGT points wins that purple jacket twenty five K
Speaker 3: PGD passport. One little thing I think we can announce
Speaker 3: this right the whole seat. Yeah, we're going to touch
Speaker 3: on the NAPT a little later once we get through
Speaker 3: the next series. But little kickback to you players at home.
Speaker 3: If you play the million Dollar Showcase right, you will
Speaker 3: have a chance to win an NAPT Las Vegas and
Speaker 3: five K main event ticket.
Speaker 1: Random draw.
Speaker 3: Haven't figured out the cool way to do it yet,
Speaker 3: but random draw everyone that plays the showcase, just all
Speaker 3: the unique players that'll be entered in to win a
Speaker 3: five K seat into NAPT Las Vegas. And along with that,
Speaker 3: you know, I don't know if you want to explain
Speaker 3: the Silver Pass.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Silver Pass is valued. I believe three thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: All Poker Goo annual subscribers will be entered, so current
Speaker 1: and new. We do have to figure out a drawing
Speaker 1: data I guess, but we don't have that yet. But
Speaker 1: you know, if you're an annual subscriber, this is another
Speaker 1: thing that we're giving back for in the Silver Pass
Speaker 1: I believe gets you out to Las Vegas to compete
Speaker 1: in a one hundred thousand dollars free roll. I think
Speaker 1: there's one hundred Silver passages. Yeah, so there's going to
Speaker 1: be one hundred people in this free role. So you know,
Speaker 1: great shot to come out to Las Vegas compete in
Speaker 1: the event. So that's very cool as well. So we
Speaker 1: are working with Poker Stars on that. We worked with
Speaker 1: them in the NAPT Las Vegas last year, so bringing
Speaker 1: that back again, trying to give back to you guys
Speaker 1: out there. The events will be qualifying for the PGT
Speaker 1: which is just it's great all around.
Speaker 2: It really is next up PGTPLO series.
Speaker 3: Having a little bit of drama with this one right now,
Speaker 3: but at this current stage, we've got ten events. We've
Speaker 3: got Mystery Bownie's, we got a PKO normal Bounie, same
Speaker 3: kind of schedule we did in March. That leads all
Speaker 3: into the Superherola Bowl one hundred KPO event at thirty
Speaker 3: eight entrance the first year, the inormal year at forty
Speaker 3: two entrance last year. This year, I think we can
Speaker 3: beat that. I think we get forty six one hundred KPLO.
Speaker 3: That's kind of going to wrap up October, and then
Speaker 3: that leads into November where you know NAPT Resorts NAPT
Speaker 3: Las Vegas comes to the resources world. There are eight
Speaker 3: PGT qualifying events. Now, if you guys can't get out
Speaker 3: to the other events, we're doing something special. We're running

Speaker 1: If Alex Foxon wins it, each be removed from the
Speaker 1: overall leaderboard for dream.
Speaker 3: Seat now because dream see winners start with only one
Speaker 3: hundred big blinds, if Alex Foxon makes it, he may
Speaker 3: have more than a hundred big blindes.
