Speaker 1: let's just bounce around the bipe here. What do you
Speaker 1: what do you want to hit on? First you give
Speaker 1: me an event, I'm gonna go to it and then
Speaker 1: we'll talk about it. That's what we're gonna do here.
Speaker 1: Let's start with the colossus. It's an easy colossus. Is
Speaker 1: this king of not only does he f off for
Speaker 1: the beginning of the podcast, make me redo this whole thing.
Speaker 1: You just just completely bury the lead. You pick a
Speaker 1: tournament with seventeen sixteen thousand people, one hundred and three
Speaker 1: people left, of which we know absolutely no one, and
Speaker 1: you're like, yeah, we're gonna lead with that. No, I'm
Speaker 1: overruling you.
Speaker 2: And I'm just wanted to throw wrench.
Speaker 1: I'm overruling you. Okay, I'm overruling you. Already out of
Speaker 1: the gate, I said I was going to do this,
Speaker 1: but no, I'm not going to do it. We are
Speaker 1: overruling you. Are they playing this out? What are they
Speaker 1: doing in this stud?
Speaker 2: The stud all right? Well down a trip plan?
Speaker 1: Answer my question?
Speaker 2: Well, I came over during the break, so I don't
Speaker 2: know unless.
Speaker 1: Okay, we're gonna go back to that. Let's let's hit
Speaker 1: on the twenty five K high Roller first, because there
Speaker 1: was a bit of a situation at the ben the
Speaker 1: day and you were here for it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So last night on the previous episode, we talked about
Speaker 1: how they had three hundred entries on day one, they
Speaker 1: got all the way up to three hundred and ninety two.
Speaker 1: Enormous field, colossal, some would say massive, some would say massive,
Speaker 1: we won't say massive, we'll say other words like gigantic,
Speaker 1: you know, stuff like that, monstrous, monstrous works. Yes, I'm
Speaker 1: totally in. So they get up to three hundred and
Speaker 1: ninety two entries due to a crap ton of late entries,
Speaker 1: people coming in right at the buzzer trying to get
Speaker 1: in there. I think if you got in at the buzzer,
Speaker 1: you had twelve and a half big blinds. This is
Speaker 1: what I saw.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that sounds right.
Speaker 1: So you send a text to our group chat saying
Speaker 1: they're redrawing the entire tournament. What the heck happened?
Speaker 3: You have very very interesting developments. Basically, they played a
Speaker 3: level while Vegetation was still open, mass que of people
Speaker 3: trying to jump in, and you know they've got the
Speaker 3: new iPads. It's it's rather difficult to balance the old
Speaker 3: way where you hi cott tables open new tables.
Speaker 2: It causes quite a headache. And I don't know.
Speaker 3: Who made the decision WSP or maybe it was the
Speaker 3: people in the app. They did it, you know, redraw
Speaker 3: of the tournament. That way, you can just basically immediately
Speaker 3: redraw all the new players in. They all get their
Speaker 3: push notification, they all move tables, very uncommon way to
Speaker 3: do it. But I was out there I didn't really
Speaker 3: hear any gripes about it, So maybe this is the
Speaker 3: new way to do.
Speaker 1: It, I was gonna say. I mean, at least as
Speaker 1: it pertains to the SP because now with the WSP
Speaker 1: plus app, you basically press a button probably right this
Speaker 1: is redraw or something. So I mean, should that be
Speaker 1: the case in these tournaments when you have these large
Speaker 1: groups of late registrants that come in. Should you just
Speaker 1: do this? You know, you play that level or two
Speaker 1: levels or whatever it is on the day two, and
Speaker 1: then when that break comes you say, you get everyone
Speaker 1: in and then you press the redraw button and everyone
Speaker 1: goes and does their thing and gets to their new seats.
Speaker 1: So I feel like it should just be implemented.
Speaker 2: Okay, Personally I don't love it.
Speaker 3: I still like the way we do it to the
Speaker 3: studio where you you know, high cat is such.
Speaker 2: A butt in all candis, but you see it.
Speaker 3: You can't compare it to the studio, I know, but
Speaker 3: in all fantus this is still random. So if it
Speaker 3: saves ten to fifteen minutes and it's just an easy
Speaker 3: way to do it, and no players object.
Speaker 2: Hey, I think this might.
Speaker 3: Be the new way to do these big field high rollers,
Speaker 3: especially here at the WSP.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you on that, So I just thought
Speaker 1: it was interesting. You know, you've never seen anything like that. Obviously.
Speaker 1: The app makes it easy to just you know, press
Speaker 1: a couple buttons and rejar everyone. Everything gets shot out
Speaker 1: to everyone's phone and that's that. So after day two
Speaker 1: in that tournament, eighteen players remain. Anatolely Nikotin is leading
Speaker 1: the way with five point five to five million chips,
Speaker 1: chin Way Limb is second, Andrew Ostepchenko is third, or
Speaker 1: Kasatchi Cogloo is fourth, and Byron Caverman is fifth on
Speaker 1: the leaderboard. We had a shot twenty five k fantasy
Speaker 1: wise down to the final couple tables and we had
Speaker 1: both Jeremy Osmas and Seth Davies in. Jeremy Ozmas ends
Speaker 1: up busting in twenty second place and then Seth Davies
Speaker 1: bus in nineteenth place. So we scored some points, yes,
Speaker 1: but we were closer to scoring a bit more points
Speaker 1: and things were looking quite nice for us but didn't
Speaker 1: work out. So what are you gonna do? Almost two
Speaker 1: million buckeroos up top for this one one million, nine
Speaker 1: hundred and forty nine thousand dollars second place also going
Speaker 1: to get seven figures. Just Shiy have one point three
Speaker 1: million four second place. The final eighteen players are guaranteed
Speaker 1: seventy three thousand, six hundred and thirty nine dollars. Plan
Speaker 1: for this one we did stream day two today on
Speaker 1: Poker Grow and on the Poker Goro YouTube channel. The
Speaker 1: plan is to stream the final table on Monday, June
Speaker 1: and ninth. That's today when you're listening or watching this,
Speaker 1: So stay tuned to Poker Go for that one. It
Speaker 1: should be a fun final table with a ton of
Speaker 1: money up top. Remember this is the one that Nick
Speaker 1: Schulman won last year, and this year it's even bigger again,
Speaker 1: more than more than one point nine million going to
Speaker 1: the winner. Okay, so now that I've gotten that out
Speaker 1: of the way, where do you want to go?
Speaker 2: I say we go to the six hundred.
Speaker 1: You're so ridiculous. Okay, We're going to go over to
Speaker 1: the fifteen hundred dollars PLO double board bomb pot, which
Speaker 1: has a winner, jijang Luo lou oh Is Lap. So
Speaker 1: I have no idea to say his last name, don't
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just know that there was a
Speaker 1: guy at the Venecient final table today who had the
Speaker 1: same last name, and the whole time that I was
Speaker 1: saying his last name, it was non stop correcting me
Speaker 1: in the chat. So I don't know, I don't know
Speaker 1: how to say his name. Luo sounds right to me Chinese,
Speaker 1: I believe, so, I mean he was American, but it.
Speaker 3: Was the American Chinese. I think that might matter. I mean,
Speaker 3: maybe I'm listen.
Speaker 1: The chat was telling me NonStop, So I just I
Speaker 1: listened to the chat because that's the professionals of the
Speaker 1: worldat the YouTube chat is the professionals of the world.
Speaker 1: So that's what I go with Jizang here winning his
Speaker 1: third bracelet in three years. He won to last year, right,
Speaker 1: and he won this one this year, so he's just
Speaker 1: obviously the greatest player.
Speaker 3: You remember which one he won last yet I know
Speaker 3: that he beat your boy, one of the hashems in
Speaker 3: the in this tournament.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, well it was.
Speaker 1: It was slightly different, but last year it was no
Speaker 1: one at hold him slash Plo. They didn't do the
Speaker 1: bomb pot every hand, so kind of changed it up.
Speaker 1: He won that, and I don't know what else he won.
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I just want to see if
Speaker 2: you got that first one.
Speaker 1: I'll say he won the nine game fifteen. Is there
Speaker 1: a fifty three K nine game? There is a yes, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll say that. I'm just completely guessing. I honestly have
Speaker 1: no clue. What do he won? What do you got
Speaker 1: for me?
Speaker 2: Close? Twenty five K Horse high Roller. You're in the
Speaker 2: I mean you're in the vicinity of.
Speaker 1: I knew it was a mixed game tournament. He's a
Speaker 1: mixed game guy. He's obviously the greatest mix game player
Speaker 1: in the world, well second greatest to Benny Glasser.
Speaker 2: But I don't know. I don't know. He might be Uh,
Speaker 2: they can run at it.
Speaker 3: This one also took for it if we topped at
Speaker 3: the horse twenty five K horse final table. Josh all
Speaker 3: Are No Alba Dahir, Michael Manchek, Phil Ivy, Ryan Miller's
Speaker 3: got see it?
Speaker 2: David Ben you mean Adam Friedman? Cool? That is a
Speaker 2: murderous row.
Speaker 1: Yeah, means twenty five What do you expect? No, but yeah,
Speaker 1: this tournament? Uh luo winning two hundred and ninety thousand.
Speaker 1: Whose heads up with Robert Klein? I mean they they
Speaker 1: played heads of forever a long time. Yeah, there was
Speaker 1: two heads up matches going on and opposit side of
Speaker 1: the rooms. You had this one between Luo and Kline.
Speaker 1: Then you had the other one between China Raim and Nikwaghini,
Speaker 1: which I guess is still going on over there for
Speaker 1: god knows what reason. These these ten K limit tournaments
Speaker 1: are just wildly long. Interesting situation here happened when you
Speaker 1: and I were about to go for a walk go
Speaker 1: check out some of the other tournaments, and we stopped
Speaker 1: by here. There's a three way all in. There are fourhanded,
Speaker 1: there's a three way all in. There's cars all over
Speaker 1: the table, there's chips all over the table. Danny Wong
Speaker 1: is one of one of the players all in. But
Speaker 1: Danny Wong like, I don't know, at least to me,
Speaker 1: it didn't seem like he realized he got eliminated.
Speaker 2: Yeah, got scooped.
Speaker 1: By the way he well, the way he didn't act
Speaker 1: made me. I was like, am I misreading what's going
Speaker 1: on here? It was like, clearly you're just eliminated. But
Speaker 1: he was kind of like sitting there like, oh, I
Speaker 1: have a set well yeah, but he has a straight
Speaker 1: so it doesn't matter. So what are we doing anyway?
Speaker 1: A little side there? Uh, former Player of the Year
Speaker 1: Iamatakis seventh place in this event. All right, we're done
Speaker 1: with that. All right, let's talk about the stud shall we?
Speaker 2: Yes? Do it?
Speaker 1: So it's Nick Waghanty, it's China Reem. They are heads
Speaker 1: up and as of right now, it looks like Nick
Speaker 1: Waghanty has the chip lead. Yep, it's just incredible. What
Speaker 1: was the size of the chip lead for Chino? Like,
Speaker 1: what did it get up to? I think he had
Speaker 1: six to one?
Speaker 3: Yeah, a little bit les a little bit worse than
Speaker 3: a six to one lead at one point during heads
Speaker 3: up play. And you know, we thought, as the broadcast
Speaker 3: was going on of the day two coverage of the
Speaker 3: twenty five K, we were going to crown potential winner
Speaker 3: in Chino Reem first time brace the winner on that
Speaker 3: out of table. But Nick slowly grinding back, you know,
Speaker 3: got it to even went back to Chino's way, back.
Speaker 2: And forth, back and forth.
Speaker 3: Obviously they're playing pretty big limits just finished hundred K,
Speaker 3: two hundred K, and obviously these guys both want it
Speaker 3: pretty bad. I'd say China wants it slightly more so.
Speaker 3: It's a grind out there. And you know they did
Speaker 3: talk about ending at one.
Speaker 2: What happened to that five? And I want to bring
Speaker 2: up another thing because.
Speaker 3: When on a fifteen minute break, Nick Gaghani is nowhere
Speaker 3: to be found when the clock starts, and Gino's like, well, wait,
Speaker 3: Nick had six big bets, okay, I caught him twice.
Speaker 3: Gino messaged him. I think ODB said he messaged him.
Speaker 3: He came back fifteen minutes later, and I am very
Speaker 3: confident that he would have been blinded out in fifteen
Speaker 3: minutes with six big bets. You have to physically deal
Speaker 3: the hands, I believe, still right, and then take the
Speaker 3: chips and move on on.
Speaker 1: What was he doing?
Speaker 2: Why did he do that when he came back?
Speaker 3: Because he has a room here, He shares a room
Speaker 3: here with a few upstairs. So like we just assumed
Speaker 3: he went upstairs, you know, maybe change his clothes, eat
Speaker 3: some food, go to the bathroom.
Speaker 2: Whatever it is.
Speaker 3: He said he wanted thirty minutes. And I think that's
Speaker 3: where there was a bit of a bit of a
Speaker 3: confusion between before Gino Nick. But look, hey good on YouTube,
Speaker 3: you know if not you know, dealing the cards and
Speaker 3: taking that brace at home a little unfairly.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, listen, it doesn't look like Kara is
Speaker 1: going to be on Chino's side, because clearly Nick is
Speaker 1: just taken out yet. So I pointed something funny out
Speaker 1: years ago. I don't even remember what year it was.
Speaker 1: It was two thousand and eight, it was maybe two
Speaker 1: thousand design. It was one of those two John Rebert
Speaker 1: Balon who is friends with Gino his heads up with
Speaker 1: Mac Graham in the fifteen hundred dollars Limit Hold Them
Speaker 1: shootout way back in the day. And also kind of
Speaker 1: weirdly coincidentally, we mentioned Danny Wong. Danny Wong was at
Speaker 1: that final table too.
Speaker 2: It was a fifth place.
Speaker 1: Jarby is heads up with Mac Graham, and Jarby has
Speaker 1: a big lead, like ten or eleven to one, something
Speaker 1: like that. At some point in the night, it was
Speaker 1: very late. They were playing Forever. I remember I was
Speaker 1: working with James Gwill. Shout out, James Gwill, Combin CODs, yeah,
Speaker 1: Combon cards, him and I were working for IS at
Speaker 1: the time. And sometime while their heads up, Chino shows up.
Speaker 1: The Chino shows up. He's talking to his boy JRB.
Speaker 1: You know, he's trying to sweat him a little bit,
Speaker 1: you know, this, that and the other thing. Chino ends
Speaker 1: up leaving Jona berbel on dust it off, blows it,
Speaker 1: and Mac Graham ends up winning, blows the massive lead.
Speaker 1: Obviously JRB would go on to win a bracelet later on,
Speaker 1: didn't he win something crazy? He went like the five
Speaker 1: K six max or something like out of control much later,
Speaker 1: but obviously trying to get his hands on ambracelet back
Speaker 1: then you know what would have. Of course, met meant
Speaker 1: a lot to GRB. So bringing this full circle, these
Speaker 1: guys are out here playing. Chino's got a big lead, right,
Speaker 1: it's looking like he's gonna close it out. I mean,
Speaker 1: sheinos non stop talking shit like the whole time, Like
Speaker 1: it's just it was like it was like if you've
Speaker 1: ever seen you know, I don't know, clips of Michael
Speaker 1: Jordan talking shit like it was just NonStop, like in
Speaker 1: Nick Wagandi's face. It was quite hilarious. But then guess
Speaker 1: what happens You look up on the rail. Who's who
Speaker 1: shows up on the rail. Good old JRB shows up
Speaker 1: on the rail and I'm like, oh, here we go.
Speaker 1: This is the full circle moment. Chino showed up when
Speaker 1: JRB had the massive lead, and JRB blew the lead,
Speaker 1: and now you got JRB showing up when Chino had
Speaker 1: the massive lead. And at least as of right now,
Speaker 1: Nick has crawled his way back and has the chip lead.
Speaker 1: So what do you know? These two need to not
Speaker 1: go sweat each other on their rails.
Speaker 3: Okay, I would like to read a post you might
Speaker 3: have made at five point fifty three am on July third,
Speaker 3: two thousand and eight.
Speaker 2: There you go, title egg McMuffin time. It's almost six am,
Speaker 2: and thought us a.
Speaker 3: Breakfast at the beginning to provide perhaps we should send
Speaker 3: the floor lady to McDonald's.
Speaker 1: That was definitely h James James's for much of that
Speaker 1: for much of what year was that two eight two eight? Yeah,
Speaker 1: so that was my first year. For much of that
Speaker 1: I was reporting on the floor and handing stuff to
Speaker 1: him and he was writing it.
Speaker 3: Graham getting irritated. Six fifty nine am. The loans railbirds
Speaker 3: are getting a little too rowdy here at the Fie table.
Speaker 3: After a hand one of the spectators was giving Graham
Speaker 3: a little too much grief. Graham's had something to him.
Speaker 3: Security stepped in and spoke with the spectator. We've been
Speaker 3: told that if it gets much more rowdy then security
Speaker 3: will start removing people from the rail. This final post
Speaker 3: even fifty three, only fifty three events of this world
Speaker 3: series Man times changed. Even fifty three is in the books.
Speaker 3: Under twenty three players in a day too. That lasted
Speaker 3: over seventeen hours.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was outragious.
Speaker 3: Seventeen hours that post seven thirty am. Yeah, it was
Speaker 3: kind of marathons back though in those days.
Speaker 1: Absolutely ridiculous. Well, these guys are still playing over there
Speaker 1: for god knows what reason. Just go home, guys, come back.
Speaker 2: Been sleeping.
Speaker 3: How you mentioned I'm going to go upstairs and sleep
Speaker 3: since we have a room. You mean you could take
Speaker 3: that too, but you think kids at school. Two thousand
Speaker 3: and eight, there was one day I finished at like
Speaker 3: five am. I want to pay for the cab to
Speaker 3: go back to our rental house in Chinatown. So I
Speaker 3: slept in the player's lounge, laptop in my arms like this,
Speaker 3: cuddling it on the couch.
Speaker 2: And then like every time security.
Speaker 3: Would come in or people would come in to like,
Speaker 3: you know, go to the player's lounge, I would like
Speaker 3: wake up. And then I woke up to the stampede
Speaker 3: of people coming into the rio about eleven fifty, went
Speaker 3: to the bathroom, did like one of those washers, you
Speaker 3: know where you get the water and you hip yourself down,
Speaker 3: and then started at shift to twelve o'clock.
Speaker 1: There you go.
Speaker 2: Yeah, good old days.
Speaker 1: So before these two you had Paul Volpi busted out
Speaker 1: in fourth place, Mori Esk and Donni made a run
Speaker 1: all the way to fifth place, seventy thousand dollars for him.
Speaker 1: Adam Friedman was in there, sixth place for him, Dan
Speaker 1: Hi Miller seventh, eighth place, Mike the mouth matters. So
Speaker 1: so a good group of names there that ultimately bout out.
Speaker 1: And yeah, Yang Zoo also busted in third. He busted today.
Speaker 1: They played three handed for a while as well. You know,
Speaker 1: it wasn't just the heads up play that lasted quite
Speaker 1: a long time. But right now it is still Shino
Speaker 1: Reeman nkwagainst he heads up for the ten thousand dollars
Speaker 1: seven cards stud title and two hundred and ninety five
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Nick is looking for his third gold bracelet,
Speaker 1: Chino is looking for his first. Chino has is it?
Speaker 1: Three heads are second place finish three second.
Speaker 3: Place finishes is a third couple of fourths, and he's
Speaker 3: either going to get a win or another second place.
Speaker 1: Right yeah, yeah, so he's he's you know, been there
Speaker 1: close many many times. Chino has of course won many
Speaker 1: big tournaments in his career. He's won plenty of stuff
Speaker 1: in the studio as part of the PGT. He's a
Speaker 1: two time PGT Mixed Games Champion, you know, but he
Speaker 1: has still yet to claim AWASP Gold bracelet. And he's
Speaker 1: right there. He's right there right now. So you know,
Speaker 1: if we get a winner during the rest of the show,
Speaker 1: we'll do some breaking news. If not, you can expect
Speaker 1: us to hit on this one and close it up
Speaker 1: on the next episode of the show. The fifteen hundred
Speaker 1: dollars Big Oh is down to how many players seventeen
Speaker 1: from the field of fourteen hundred and ninety nine. And
Speaker 1: while we bombed out. When I say we, I mean
Speaker 1: our twenty five K fantasy team in the twenty five
Speaker 1: K high Roller, we got Nico Milgram looks like he's
Speaker 1: second in chips for this one with seventeen players remain,
Speaker 1: so we got a shot. We're good old Nico there.
Speaker 1: Also listen, don't look now, but I said, don't be
Speaker 1: surprised if Ryan Honig wins a second bracelet. And who's
Speaker 1: fifth in chips, Ryan hone. There you go. You also
Speaker 1: got Lawrence Brandt in there, Oasamed is in there. Sean
Speaker 1: Daniels is all so still in the field for this
Speaker 1: big old tournament. Those seventeen players are guaranteed twelve hundred
Speaker 1: dollars up top almost three hundred k two hundred ninety
Speaker 1: seven thousand, two hundred dollars are gonna come back on Monday.
Speaker 1: They're gonna try and play this one out to a winner.
Speaker 1: I would expect that this one actually does get to
Speaker 1: a winner, unlike what might happen over there in the
Speaker 1: seven card stud six hundred dollars mixed no limit, hold
Speaker 1: them slash pot limit Omaha, deep stack, and I did not.
Speaker 1: I have not seen this guy in a long time.
Speaker 1: Whoa Valentine Vorniku is the chip leader? That's crazy? Maybe
Speaker 1: Second Way Ships hold on? Oh my god, they did
Speaker 1: it to me again. I cannot stand when they do this.
Speaker 1: The chip leader should be the story ninety nine percent
Speaker 1: of the time, and the thing is the guy who
Speaker 1: is actually the chip leader. Easton Orman works in the industry.
Speaker 1: He is a social media manager, works for the rold
Speaker 1: Poker Tour. Give the man his due, put him in
Speaker 1: the headline. And he has a sizeable chip lead. He's
Speaker 1: got three million. Varnicu has two point five million. That's
Speaker 1: a nice chip lead. Come on, man, what are we doing?
Speaker 1: This is ridiculous?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 1: Now, I think there are exceptions to every rule. For example,
Speaker 1: if let's say Daniel Legron, who is in third place? Okay,
Speaker 1: I get it right, but come on, guys, come on.
Speaker 1: You got James Calderao, big show baby, he's in third,
Speaker 1: Kane Callus is in eighth. What's what? What's going on
Speaker 1: in this tournament? I haven't even checked in this thing
Speaker 1: all day. Two seventy five entries. Yeah, good lord, they're
Speaker 1: in the money. Okay, who else is in there?
Speaker 3: Kyler Brown's in there? We got a brace winning in
Speaker 3: the Joseph Sanders, cal and Anderson he had a chip
Speaker 3: lead for a long time, doesn't have that anymore. Angel
Speaker 3: is a Gary Balden. I know, we love our Gary Balden,
Speaker 3: mat Gregorich.
Speaker 1: It's not an omal tournat if Gary Bolden is not
Speaker 1: on the course.
Speaker 3: Of course, the sorry, all right, a few of these
Speaker 3: kind of mixed game notables we are used to uh
Speaker 3: talking about.
Speaker 1: All right, sounds good. I mean we might as well
Speaker 1: do it. Now, let's let's sit on this colossal. Yes,
Speaker 1: that's you know. I I after you tried to put
Speaker 1: it at the top to bury everything colossal, I went
Speaker 1: and then buried it.
Speaker 2: It's colossal that it needed to be first.
Speaker 1: Can you are you able to effort right now? Check
Speaker 1: the structure this year? In last year? I want to
Speaker 1: know what the deal is with the struction? Okay, you
Speaker 1: which one are you going to check? How about that? Okay,
Speaker 1: I'll check this year. So you checked last year's structure,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna check this year's structure because Tim and I
Speaker 1: were talking about how the field size was down year
Speaker 1: over or three thousand entries, and we were informed Our
Speaker 1: good friend ODB reached out and said that they changed
Speaker 1: the structure, which I had heard, but I was like
Speaker 1: that that, I mean, how much could they have changed
Speaker 1: the structure? But now we were told they went from
Speaker 1: thirty minute blinds to forty minute blinds. Now, this is
Speaker 1: what we're trying to confirm. So bear with us while
Speaker 1: we try and look this up. This is always incredible stuff.
Speaker 1: I know producer Rich Fryan absolutely freaking loves it. So
Speaker 1: level duration this year is forty minutes, fifty k chips,
Speaker 1: forty minute levels.
Speaker 2: Are you not able to have?
Speaker 3: Fine? Anything you got to go to like Poker News
Speaker 3: or something, right, Yeah, I'm going to like Day one
Speaker 3: A of Poking News.
Speaker 1: The problem is that they changed all these freaking all
Speaker 1: the stuff on the website, so you can't this is.
Speaker 2: What I have. Yeah, no, it's forty k.
Speaker 3: Starting one to forty minute levels, three starting ves play
Speaker 3: fifteen levels all fifteen percent of the field.
Speaker 1: So wait, that was last year.
Speaker 2: That was lastly.
Speaker 3: So this yea, you saw fifty k slightly more chips,
Speaker 3: still forty minutes. I'm not sure what the first level was.
Speaker 3: Can you tell us was one hundred tw hundred, two
Speaker 3: hundred yeah, okay, so basically the increase in siding chips.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but the increase of twenty five percent, that's a lot.
Speaker 1: It's a lot of chips and also extending, which they obviously,
Speaker 1: I mean they like it because the buying is higher.
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, And they increased the amount of play on
Speaker 3: day one, although it was still down to the money,
Speaker 3: but they did allow for seventeen and eighty levels. So
Speaker 3: that's the main difference from this year.
Speaker 2: I lostium.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think also, as you pointed out on
Speaker 1: yesterday's episode, that it was later in the schedule last year. Yeah, right,
Speaker 1: so that you know, it's it's probably not exactly one thing.
Speaker 1: You know, it's probably not the structure. It's probably not this,
Speaker 1: it's probably not that. It's probably you know, there's a
Speaker 1: pie chart and everything has its share of stuff, you know,
Speaker 1: so it's all those things. But you know, shouts to
Speaker 1: ODB for passing along that information with with the structure,
Speaker 1: and you know, an extra ten thousand chips is a lot.
Speaker 1: It makes things, you know, a bit deeper, especially if
Speaker 1: they keep if all the levels are the same throughout right,
Speaker 1: obviously adding more chips in there, you know, people are
Speaker 1: just gonna go bust a little bit slower. Carlos called
Speaker 1: us is leading the way. This is a funny headline,
Speaker 1: seeking first bracelet. There's one hundred people left. It's not wrong,
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, yeah, okay, there's sixteen thousand people sneaking
Speaker 1: a RASO in this tournament. I mean it's just sometimes
Speaker 1: it's funny. You know. Mac Glance is still in by
Speaker 1: the way, somehow, some way, mac Glance is in.
Speaker 2: The field, and there was also one more an other
Speaker 2: of w so Ryan Lang.
Speaker 3: Okay, this was supposed to be already down to nine
Speaker 3: players for one o'clock stream tomorrow, you're what.
Speaker 2: About ninety eight players heavy?
Speaker 3: So we are already making some contingent plans here to
Speaker 3: maybe push it into another day, maybe stream at eight
Speaker 3: pm or nine. We're going to see how fast it plays.
Speaker 3: Every sacks about twenty big, so it should be pretty
Speaker 3: quick out of the gate eleven am restart, you know.
Speaker 3: So there is still hopes we'll get this on Pugga
Speaker 3: Goo on Monday, just a little lighter than the one
Speaker 3: pm that I had scheduled about three months ago.
Speaker 1: So well, people are playing too good in the Colossus. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I have an idea for the classes.
Speaker 2: Got it.
Speaker 1: Looking at this first place prize, it's five hundred and
Speaker 1: forty two thousand dollars in a whole lot of money. Now,
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people are probably gonna hate
Speaker 1: this idea, but I'm going to roll with it.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to think of what you're thinking.
Speaker 1: Cap the first place at five hundred.
Speaker 2: K Okay, why I don't know, is that clean number.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a nice clean number. But then but
Speaker 1: then you get you can beef up all the other payouts, okay,
Speaker 1: And what you then get is, you know, hopefully you
Speaker 1: get kind of these these dreamers, these shot takers, recreational
Speaker 1: players that are firing into this, you know, to maybe
Speaker 1: get a little bit more payout. You know, you cash
Speaker 1: for let's say eighteen hundred instead of fifteen hundred. You know,
Speaker 1: I don't think that the top makes that much of it.
Speaker 1: EVSI cash for five forty two or five hundred thousand, right,
Speaker 1: you know, but if you throw a couple hundred bucks,
Speaker 1: a couple thousand bucks elsewhere, right, you can go a
Speaker 1: long way. Then maybe you get those people parleying into
Speaker 1: other events like that.
Speaker 2: Month, so stock next week.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's that's just my random thought there. It
Speaker 1: just came to me right now. I have no idea
Speaker 1: if it's a good idea or a bad idea. I'm
Speaker 1: sure plenty of people will tell me it's horrendous. But
Speaker 1: that's what the uh, that's what the old YouTube comments
Speaker 1: are for. You guys can just land us go nuts
Speaker 1: in there. So yeah, so that's the colossus and then
Speaker 1: we have the ten thousand dollars no limit hold them
Speaker 1: deuced to seven single draw this thing. I mean, we
Speaker 1: walked over there and we immediately said, why is this
Speaker 1: so big? It's out of control big. The players are
Speaker 1: talking on the rail that this might get two hundred.
Speaker 1: Now you were talking about is there a different number
Speaker 1: of re entries?
Speaker 3: Yeah, they increased the re entries from one. Well, first
Speaker 3: of all, most of the championship events no re entries.
Speaker 3: A love makes sense, freeze out, Love It Championship on
Speaker 3: the no limit do is a little special, Okay, So
Speaker 3: it's all. I had one a bit more gamble for
Speaker 3: the reason, you know, to Benny Streets just all in call.
Speaker 3: This year they made it two, so that definitely factors in.
Speaker 3: I saw a post from Benny Glasa he was in
Speaker 3: for all three. Got that third one up to an
Speaker 3: okay stack.
Speaker 1: So John Sharman on our twenty five k team was
Speaker 1: also in for all three.
Speaker 2: Love it.
Speaker 3: Good work, John, this is what we need. You need
Speaker 3: to get us over the line because Jeremie has was
Speaker 3: not doing too well.
Speaker 2: So yeah, that was the change.
Speaker 3: And obviously the best way to view this is at
Speaker 3: the end of the day, we get the uniques.
Speaker 2: You look at the uniques and you look at the.
Speaker 3: Total entrance and and see if it's more based on
Speaker 3: the re entries or more based on new players.
Speaker 2: You know, we I.
Speaker 3: Walked over there first person. I saw Elio Sion, who
Speaker 3: we talked about. Uh, loyal listener, set me a DM today.
Speaker 3: Pedro Brofman was like playing the deuce, bringing me your hat.
Speaker 3: Of course, of course he's playing.
Speaker 1: The histor is playing the duke.
Speaker 2: Of course.
Speaker 1: Of course we.
Speaker 2: Saw the legend Billy Baxter over there. His his page's
Speaker 2: still in Uh. I don't know, I've been sweating.
Speaker 1: He is stilling.
Speaker 3: So yeah, you get a lot of fresh faces that
Speaker 3: come out for the for the no limber dues.
Speaker 2: You've got the extra re entries.
Speaker 3: A lot of these no limit guys, Darren Olias, Alex Fox,
Speaker 3: and they love the deuce.
Speaker 1: You know, That's what that's what is saying. You're starting
Speaker 1: to get a lot of the bigger no Limbic guys
Speaker 1: transition over to start firing in this one, which is
Speaker 1: great to see, you know. So yeah, Nick Schulman leading
Speaker 1: the way. Shocker there, what a surprise, Yeah, what a shocker.
Speaker 1: He's leaving the Waistcott, sever second Alex Fox, and third
Speaker 1: you mentioned Darren Olias. He's up there near the top,
Speaker 1: Dan Smith as well as in the top ten Daniel
Speaker 1: Negrano also in the top ten, Daniels. Daniel's putting together
Speaker 1: some runs here. Huh, He's putting together some stacks. He's
Speaker 1: putting together some runs. We'll see if he can go
Speaker 1: deep in this one. Of course, anyone who bought action
Speaker 1: of his package on poker Steak, I'm sure loves to
Speaker 1: see the fact that Daniel is in the top ten
Speaker 1: entering day two of this tournament. So what do we
Speaker 1: got going on tomorrow?
Speaker 3: Well, we'll have the continued championship going for another eight
Speaker 3: hours between TEENA Raymond Nick, we have the Cossus. Obviously
Speaker 3: we touched on what's starting this new, what's setting this new.
Speaker 3: We have a fifty k no limit hold him high roller.
Speaker 3: That's gonna be a big one. We will hopefully do
Speaker 3: some Day two coverage of that for the folk like
Speaker 3: you and me with smaller bankcross eight hundred deep stack
Speaker 3: right up at Ali, I don't think either of us
Speaker 3: will playing that because we exhausted right now, and then
Speaker 3: the afternoon event, the very the event that would be
Speaker 3: voted most likely to get evicted from the WSP schedule
Speaker 3: is the fifteen hundred limit hold them?
Speaker 1: You really think that that's the event.
Speaker 3: Of all the ones on there, it's I don't think
Speaker 3: it would ever go, but I feel like that's the
Speaker 3: one most on the out of all the you know,
Speaker 3: I don't know, I feel I say the fifteen hundred horse,
Speaker 3: no chance you compare that to say the fifteen hundred
Speaker 3: big oh no, fifteen hundred start No.
Speaker 1: I think that I'm going to need to think on
Speaker 1: this one.
Speaker 2: Now, numbers, let's look at the numbers.
Speaker 3: We'll see if we can not right now, you don't
Speaker 3: have the brain power to.
Speaker 1: I just need to kind of go through and see.
Speaker 3: Limit hold them for. I mean, look, it still gets
Speaker 3: a good turnout. I'm just saying that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So if it gets a good turnout, it's never
Speaker 1: getting Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't think it's because to get evicted.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, if it keeps paying the rent, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: need to they pay the rent. That's just how it works.
Speaker 2: Good point. Good point.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, you gotta find something that's not paying the rent,
Speaker 1: which is like the ten k rass.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, you just you just broke Mickey's hot.
Speaker 1: I mean, isn't that like the lowest turnout?
Speaker 3: Okay, right, stud loss he had one oh seven. Given
Speaker 3: the ten k is a different I.
Speaker 1: Know, but I'm just saying, well, they used to have
Speaker 1: a ten k pot limit, hold them.
Speaker 2: Special.
Speaker 1: They evicted that thing, right, Yeah, I mean it can happen, definitely.
Speaker 1: There's no sacred cars. Well there's one sacred call the
Speaker 1: main event. Other than that, there's there's no sacred cows here,
Speaker 1: all right. Yeah, but yeah, so three three events signed tomorrow.
Speaker 3: You got a little bit of taste for everyone, the
Speaker 3: low rollers, the high rollers, and the limit rollers and.
Speaker 1: The limit rulers. You're actually absolutely ridiculous. We're leading into
Speaker 1: a pretty fun stretch. Of course, we have those events
Speaker 1: kicking off tomorrow, but I'm looking a little bit further
Speaker 1: down the road. You know, three k free out, ten kplohilo,
Speaker 1: fifteen hundred dollars Monster Sack, one hundred thousand dollars high roller, like,
Speaker 1: you know, that's a nice batch of events right there.
Speaker 1: So I'm really looking forward to what we have for.
Speaker 2: The week ahead.
Speaker 3: And fresh off the niche Women's high Roller, we did
Speaker 3: it the way we talked about from the win yesterday.
Speaker 3: We got the seniors hire all of five K coming
Speaker 3: up next week as well. So yeah, we have h
Speaker 3: big high rollers, the seniors hirollos, and some pretty interesting
Speaker 3: freeze out events coming up.
