Well, he's got the sound. 101 00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:44.879 I'll just I don't drink. I don't drink Fiji's. I 102 00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:47.000 try and drink natural spring water whenever I can. 103 00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:50.399 Are you like we have bottled water in the fridge. 104 00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:52.040 We have little ones like that size, and then we 105 00:05:52.079 --> 00:05:53.680 have the big ones for when I play soccer so 106 00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:56.480 I can put my electrolyzes in it. Are you like 107 00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:58.680 water bottle house or you like give the filter in 108 00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:00.199 the tap of your brit out what what do you 109 00:06:00.199 --> 00:06:00.480 guys do? 110 00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:05.079 I mean, normally we just have the water that comes 111 00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:09.720 out of our fridge, got it, which is probably equivalent 112 00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:14.399 to this. But you know, when drinking bottled water, if 113 00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:17.079 you're going to buy bottled water, I always prefer just 114 00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:20.600 natural spring water. That it could be totally bogus, but 115 00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:23.800 it could not be. But I I always okay, so 116 00:06:23.839 --> 00:06:25.680 I bring you know, I have my water bottle that 117 00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:28.399 I bring, my big water bottle. I fill it up 118 00:06:28.399 --> 00:06:32.480 at home. I can tell the difference between this water 119 00:06:32.800 --> 00:06:35.120 and that water all the time. And when I drink 120 00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:39.399 this water, my throat gets a bit scratchy every single time. 121 00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:40.279 Every time. 122 00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:44.040 Everything by our plumber. Not to drink the water from 123 00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:47.160 the fridge. It's filtered, but not filtered as well as 124 00:06:47.519 --> 00:06:50.879 we have a filtered water tap at as sink along 125 00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:53.040 with the water tap. So we have two taps. And 126 00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:54.920 they say, he says, you should drink from that one, 127 00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:56.680 all right, because let's filter it properly. 128 00:06:56.839 --> 00:07:00.600 Let's I derailed us fall you always because I needed 129 00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:02.199 to drink the water and I wanted to rant about 130 00:07:02.279 --> 00:07:06.040 so whatever. Four bracelets for Ian Johns, you name some 131 00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:08.439 of that, the company that he's in. Now he doesn't 132 00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:10.439 play a lot. As I mentioned, you know, talking to 133 00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:13.199 some of his friends that were around today, he was 134 00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:15.560 going to come out for three to four tournaments something 135 00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:18.839 like that. One of those tournaments was the fifteen hundred 136 00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:21.879 dollars Horse, which he got ninth in. Pretty crazy, you know. 137 00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:24.439 So he had ninth in that I think nine thousand 138 00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:27.079 or ten thousand dollars and then goes on to win 139 00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:31.079 this tournament his second time, winning the ten K limit 140 00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:36.680 Hold Them Championship event that came in twenty sixteen, and 141 00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:38.759 that was also a year when he won the fifteen 142 00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:43.399 hundred horse.

Who was partly railing He just bagged 190 00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:07.000 the monster stack. He was partly railing his friend David 191 00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:10.279 od B Baker, who's also our friend. Ye, and he 192 00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:13.080 said he goes way back with Odb playing Limit hold 193 00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:14.919 them at the Commerce. 194 00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:15.320 Yeah. 195 00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:18.360 I mean wild stuff, absolute wild stuff. Ian john Zo 196 00:10:19.159 --> 00:10:21.879 a quiet killer when it comes to the World Series 197 00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:23.960 of Poker. Now we mentioned how he doesn't chase a 198 00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:27.759 full schedule. He certainly does not, but you know he's 199 00:10:27.840 --> 00:10:31.440 out here for a short period of time, not grinding 200 00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:34.200 every single event. But when he shows up, especially when 201 00:10:34.240 --> 00:10:37.360 it comes to limit hold him, this guy is a 202 00:10:37.399 --> 00:10:41.320 freaking beast, an absolute beast. So now he's got those 203 00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:43.919 four bracelets. Two of them came in this ten K 204 00:10:43.960 --> 00:10:46.519 Limit Hold Them championship. He's got that other one from 205 00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:49.080 the three K limit hold Him from back in two 206 00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:52.320 thousand and six. Pretty rare company overall in terms of 207 00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:57.159 like specialists in one format, you know, So I would 208 00:10:57.159 --> 00:10:59.720 certainly say that, like when it comes to limit hold them, 209 00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:02.200 Ian Johns is up there with the best, you know, 210 00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:05.600 if not the best, and it's it's also it's it 211 00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:08.600 is crazy to think that you can still get to 212 00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:12.919 four bracelets and not be a high volume player. Like 213 00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:15.120 I think of someone who's going to get to four bracelets, 214 00:11:15.159 --> 00:11:18.279 and like I wouldn't be surprised if Michael Manchak Texas 215 00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:21.240 Mike gets to four bracelets if he's blasting every single tournament, 216 00:11:21.279 --> 00:11:23.919 sometimes multiple tournaments at one time, right, Like, you're just 217 00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:26.559 gonna get there, you know. But when you have such 218 00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:31.639 low volume, it's hard to realize, you know, the success. 219 00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:34.039 And and John's is just I mean, I guess he's 220 00:11:34.080 --> 00:11:38.919 proof that, you know, you can just be really effing 221 00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:43.840 good have lemon Holdum. Yeah, he's also good at horse 222 00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:45.840 I guess too, because he had that bracelet and horse, 223 00:11:45.840 --> 00:11:47.320 and then he had the ninth places year. I mean, 224 00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:50.840 Ian John's freaking killer. I remember when he won those 225 00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:54.240 those two bracelets in twenty sixteen. I remember that it 226 00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:57.639 was like, wow, like this guy's legit. But then it's 227 00:11:57.639 --> 00:12:00.240 also I remember when he won it, and it was 228 00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:02.039 kind of like, Okay, maybe this is guy. Guy's like 229 00:12:02.080 --> 00:12:04.960 the new thing, you know, But as you came to 230 00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:07.120 realize in the couple of years after, he doesn't put 231 00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:10.120 in a whole big volume, so you know, you don't 232 00:12:10.120 --> 00:12:12.360 you don't hear from his has often. And again it's 233 00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:14.960 not that he's not a very good player. He's obviously 234 00:12:15.000 --> 00:12:17.120 the elite, but he just doesn't put the volume in, 235 00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:19.879 so you don't see him every single day and whatnot. 236 00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:22.159 I think I played with him two years ago in 237 00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:25.799 the fifteen hundred Dealer's Choice holest okay, and I remember 238 00:12:25.840 --> 00:12:28.399 asking him it was something about that mixed game series, 239 00:12:29.080 --> 00:12:30.919 and he goes, I didn't really playing much anymore. I 240 00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:33.960 kind of focus on and I want to say, like 241 00:12:34.080 --> 00:12:38.519 fantasy sports. Oh so I just recall that being I'm 242 00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:42.240 trying to see and find anything online about him. But yeah, 243 00:12:42.279 --> 00:12:44.840 I think he was big into fantasy sports nowadays instead 244 00:12:44.840 --> 00:12:48.440 of you know, full time pok A player. Yet he 245 00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:52.039 is had an NFL Angstrom. 246 00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:54.559 What I don't know. 247 00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:56.759 My passionate is to use data collaboration with at his 248 00:12:56.759 --> 00:12:58.759 news and I remember I can get my hands untackled 249 00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:03.000 to himself is the best way possible. Head of NFL 250 00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:08.039 Anstrom Austin, Texas, Remo Daily Fantasy Sports professional player. There 251 00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:12.840 there you go nine years before that professional player. So 252 00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:14.799 and then yeah, all. 253 00:13:14.759 --> 00:13:18.639 Right, well listen shout out Ian Johns for absolutely crushing 254 00:13:19.039 --> 00:13:21.480 at the final table. Victor Blam got second. I already 255 00:13:21.480 --> 00:13:26.000 mentioned that he now has three final tables at this DIBYSIP. 256 00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:27.960 He has a second place finish in this event. He 257 00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:30.519 has a fourth place finish, and he has a sixth 258 00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:33.960 place finish. He has five total caches. It's his third 259 00:13:34.360 --> 00:13:38.200 six figure score at the twenty twenty five WYSIP. I've 260 00:13:38.240 --> 00:13:42.759 said it once before, I'll say it again the maturation 261 00:13:42.960 --> 00:13:46.120 of Victor Blom. This year's WSIP, I think, is another 262 00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:50.320 chapter in the maturation of Victor Blom. Three top six finishes, 263 00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:53.320 very very good. He's got the runner up in the 264 00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:55.960 ten k limit. Hold him now he is still chasing 265 00:13:55.960 --> 00:14:00.480 his first WSP bracelet, but I mean, come on, it's coming, right. 266 00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:04.159 He was once wild, he was once chaotic. I mean, 267 00:14:04.159 --> 00:14:06.320 that's I think how you would describe his online play 268 00:14:06.399 --> 00:14:09.039 fearless as well, you know, I mean, but it was 269 00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:11.120 kind of like a combination of all of those things. 270 00:14:11.200 --> 00:14:15.200 Right now, he's he's very measured, he's you know, he 271 00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:18.799 seems more mild tempered at least like his play. He 272 00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:22.279 definitely has the aggressive gene still, like he'll get after 273 00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:26.639 it for sure, but that's fine. He seems composed when 274 00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:29.399 he plays, and it's it's coming. I don't know if 275 00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:31.799 the brace is going to come this year, but if 276 00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:34.279 Victor Blaum continues to put in the volume that he's 277 00:14:34.320 --> 00:14:37.639 putting in, not only when bracelet is coming, many bracelets 278 00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:39.600 are coming. He plays all the games, he plays them 279 00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:42.200 all well. He'll play limit, he'll play mixed, he'll play 280 00:14:42.200 --> 00:14:44.919 big bet, doesn't matter. He'll play all the freaking biens. 281 00:14:45.320 --> 00:14:47.320 I am interested to see if he hops in the 282 00:14:47.320 --> 00:14:50.320 two in fifty K That's what I'm interested to see. 283 00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:54.000 I don't I can't recall if he played in the past, 284 00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:58.799 but I mean, one we know he can obviously play 285 00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:01.360 Nolan Hold him. Well, right, Yeah, I also think that 286 00:15:01.960 --> 00:15:05.240 even if he's not I don't know this, but I'm saying, 287 00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:08.480 even if he's not the most studied player, I think 288 00:15:08.639 --> 00:15:12.360 Victor Blam is just naturally gifted that it doesn't necessarily matter, 289 00:15:12.600 --> 00:15:15.240 like some players just have it and they just understand 290 00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:18.720 the game, right, you know. I know Daniel always talks 291 00:15:18.759 --> 00:15:22.679 about one like super high roller guy who doesn't really 292 00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:25.799 ever look at charts or study solvers or anything. He's 293 00:15:25.799 --> 00:15:28.360 basically a field player. I know who that player is, 294 00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:34.000 and he's freaking incredible. So I kind of liken Blom 295 00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:36.559 to that sort of thing. I just don't see him 296 00:15:36.559 --> 00:15:38.600 grinding solvers. I mean, maybe he is, and I'm not 297 00:15:38.639 --> 00:15:40.600 aware of it, but I just see him more of 298 00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:43.840 it as a naturally gifted player who can just figure 299 00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:46.159 things out. He can watch really good players around them, 300 00:15:46.240 --> 00:15:48.879 see what it's working, what's not, and then quickly adapt 301 00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:52.120 his strategy and quickly just you know, crush. So it 302 00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:54.919 will be interesting to see the fact that he's that good, 303 00:15:55.000 --> 00:15:57.039 he's playing a high volume and now that he has 304 00:15:57.120 --> 00:16:00.440 had this early success now no bracelet, yes, but you know, 305 00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:03.080 several deep runs with that added money in the bank 306 00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:05.799 world does he hop into the two fifty k. I 307 00:16:05.879 --> 00:16:09.240 hope so, I really do hope so so, but we'll see, 308 00:16:09.480 --> 00:16:11.919 and that event kicks off on Sunday, so we will 309 00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:23.080 see very very soon. The Seniors high Roller, they are 310 00:16:23.159 --> 00:16:25.159 down to the final table. They came back with like 311 00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:29.480 nine million people today. They they played down to the 312 00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:33.720 final table. They ultimately just bagged up about twenty minutes ago, 313 00:16:34.440 --> 00:16:39.440 with four players remaining. We mentioned David odib Baker, he 314 00:16:39.600 --> 00:16:44.440 is the chip leader. With four left, it's David odib Baker, 315 00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:49.320 then it's Carmino Arguero ur Jaro. I probably butchered that. 316 00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:51.879 Year, maybe maybe. 317 00:16:51.919 --> 00:16:54.000 I mean, we're all over the place that I'm sorry, 318 00:16:54.120 --> 00:16:58.200 Ron West and Schwan sou Chen and they're I mean, 319 00:16:58.200 --> 00:17:01.320 they're all pretty close and Chay, you know, David Bakers 320 00:17:01.360 --> 00:17:04.960 got thirteen million up top Chen has nine point six million. 321 00:17:05.359 --> 00:17:07.440 They were playing two hundred k big blind. I think 322 00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:11.680 they go to two fifty k big blind next, So 323 00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:16.599 I mean, yeah, they're still they're still very close in chips, 324 00:17:16.640 --> 00:17:19.480 and at this stage, you know, one pot can swing 325 00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:22.599 the chip lead one way or the other. Eight hundred 326 00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:25.960 and one entries in this tournaments. The final four are 327 00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:28.839 guaranteed two hundred and fifteen thousand dollars six hundred and 328 00:17:28.839 --> 00:17:32.000 forty six thousand dollars up top. So as this is 329 00:17:32.039 --> 00:17:33.759 playing down there in the final ten minutes or so, 330 00:17:35.000 --> 00:17:39.319 I am talking to Scotlandzar and he's telling me how 331 00:17:39.319 --> 00:17:41.359 he played in it. He went pretty deep. I think 332 00:17:41.400 --> 00:17:44.960 he got thirty sixth or something like that, thirty seventh. 333 00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:48.640 He got thirty seventh for seventeen thousand, six hundred. He 334 00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:51.240 said that he wants to talk to the WSP and 335 00:17:51.559 --> 00:17:56.440 he wants to suggest that they do a super Senior's 336 00:17:56.480 --> 00:18:00.279 high Roller. And his reasoning is that the Sea Seniors 337 00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:05.000 high Roller was much tougher than last year because a 338 00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:08.559 lot of guys who are pretty good poker players are turned, 339 00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:11.200 like just turn fifty, yeah, so they are now eligible 340 00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:14.640 to play. This coupled with the fact that I think 341 00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:16.559 kind of the word has gotten out that if you 342 00:18:16.599 --> 00:18:20.680 are a good player fifty plus you should play these 343 00:18:20.720 --> 00:18:26.240 seniors events because they're pretty soft. So Scott thinks that 344 00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:29.160 if then if you make a super Seniors high Roller, 345 00:18:29.559 --> 00:18:32.319 it'll go back to being the soft like seniors high roller, 346 00:18:32.799 --> 00:18:34.799 because the senior high roller is now getting harder. But 347 00:18:34.839 --> 00:18:37.119 if you make that age limitation sixty for the super 348 00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:39.839 seniors high roller, then it'll go back to like being soft. 349 00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:41.200 It's basically what he. 350 00:18:41.240 --> 00:18:42.960 Say, But that would it also be five ko? 351 00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:45.240 Do you think he said the same thing, said five K? 352 00:18:45.880 --> 00:18:47.680 I could see what this one would be ten and 353 00:18:47.720 --> 00:18:49.039 then the super sedes could be five. 354 00:18:49.160 --> 00:18:51.039 I mean I think five and five is fine. 355 00:18:51.079 --> 00:18:51.279 Yeah. 356 00:18:51.319 --> 00:18:53.039 I also think you could do both ten and ten. 357 00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:55.559 I think it would draw. He said it would draw. 358 00:18:56.440 --> 00:18:58.960 I think he said three three to four hundred. I 359 00:18:59.000 --> 00:19:01.599 think four hundred four fifty is probably the right number. 360 00:19:01.839 --> 00:19:05.240 It's a lot of It's a lot. 361 00:19:05.319 --> 00:19:11.319 Yeah, but the WSP people love it.
