ready to go?

Speaker 2 (05:59):
You need a red bull like come on?

Speaker 3 (06:02):
Maybe, my man, that's what I need. You know what
you need to.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Do before you do the podcast. You just got to
bust out like ten pushups. It gets the blood flowing.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
Ten right now, I'm pretty austs shape stats. That's the show.
I have the right data.

Speaker 4 (06:17):
I love the app, but it makes it complicated with
these multi flats because this is how I interpret it.
If you guys playing along at harm you can see
what your thoughts. So I'm gonna just double check it
right now.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
So I'll say one thing about the app.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
Whatever this update is where they were, you can like
search by chipping out them.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
That's very weird and not needed.

Speaker 4 (06:38):
So it says ninety nine entrance. When you click on
what do you click whether you click on day two
ABC or you click on day two D That's what
it says. What do you click on Day three I'm
assuming it says it's signing. I didn't get that. Okay, anyway,
right now, I just went up two nine and fifty,
So I think that's the overall field size. Now, doing

(06:59):
a little bit of math, doing a little bit of calculation,
taking the starting players from day two D, I have
one hundred and or now'd be one hundred and ninety
already registered for day two D. Okay, comparing that to
twenty twenty four we had six hundred and eighteen. So
I feel that's umpar tak.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
You look at where are we at right now? Like,
what's the number?

Speaker 4 (07:22):
Give me some I just said a nine thousand, hundred fifty.
Just give me the numbersand one hundred and fifty.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
I would like everyone to I'm one second. I would
like everyone to email in is it worth listening to
my hand histories or this buffoon fumble through these numbers? Okay,
tell me tell me.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
I've been pretty podcast dot com please let us continue, sir,
continue my calculations.

Speaker 4 (07:44):
Then say that today we got two hundred and sixty
six entrance, which is up sixty players from last years.
That's a good sign kind of what we thought thirteen
twenty made it through today three that is, you know,
less than last year. Like I said, of correlates that
players are playing a little little faster, a little more
aggressive to try and accumulate chips. So everything we've kind

(08:06):
of touched on is following suit here. If everything kind
of follows, it looks like, you know, ninety eight hundred
seems to be like kind of where everything's trending to
as of right now looking at everything, interpreting all the data.
But hey, maybe we get some crazy kids like me

(08:28):
buying in tomorrow and instead of getting six seven hundred,
we get eight nine one thousand players and we kind
of hit that ten thousand and push for a new record.
So but yes, like we kind of touched on year
on year growth since we moved here to the Horseshoe
on day two ABC and then obviously we're going to

(08:49):
see on Monday a day two degos with late entrance.
But like we said last year, six hundred and eighteen
is the number to beat.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
Yeah, I don't know, I don't know if it's going
to get there, to be honest, I mean, six eighteen,
that's it feels like. I think it'll get six. I
think it'll get seven or five seven.

Speaker 3 (09:06):
You think we get seven or five new players tomorrow. Yeah,
that's my no.

Speaker 4 (09:10):
So we already had that put us one ninety right,
so on to nine one fifty. That gets us nine
six six five. Yeah, let's say we can get If
we can get to one thousand, it's a very big jump. Still,
we're still under ten k right, nine nine six So
I think, you know, if we talked about five weeks ago,

(09:30):
I think our numbers were on the lower side. We've
brought them up slowly, week by week.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
I was ten thousand, six hundred and thirty three.

Speaker 4 (09:36):
Not from the start though, the start, you know what
I'm saying. I'm saying early on we were low.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
We were kind of did I should have stuck I
should have got.

Speaker 3 (09:41):
The k Yeah, yeah, we should have stayed there.

Speaker 4 (09:43):
But who knows, right, Like, we could get tenth, we
could get a thousand players tomorrow. We could get seven
hundred players tomorrow, and that three hundred is going to
make a.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
Big, big difference.

Speaker 4 (09:53):
We don't know about all these you know, the one
sixty Orleans that are still running. Who knows what the landmarks?
Maybe everyone's saving day two D I'm.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Gonna I'm gonna throw out a suggestion. I know I
put this in our group chat because we were discussing it.
But those those one sixty what were they all in satellites?
What they're called? Yeah, I don't know why there aren't
more price points. Why isn't there five dollars, twenty dollars,
like literally every price point and they just go off
when they fill. I mean, hell, do one for a

(10:23):
freaking dollar? Well, you know, like I just do a
whole bunch of them.

Speaker 4 (10:28):
I think the reason they have Obviously you can't do
one for a dollar, but you know what I mean,
kiss you definitely could.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
Well you're not gonna get only a You're gonna get
ten thousand people in it.

Speaker 4 (10:36):
No, for those that don't understand the one sixties you register,
they have a sixty four player cap. They do have
a set time they go off. So a lot of those,
you know we're talking about a week ago, were full
for a the whole day.

Speaker 3 (10:50):
They have a set time.

Speaker 4 (10:50):
And now I think the reason is so that people
can sweat it.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
To be honest, now you and me might not care.

Speaker 4 (10:56):
I obviously recorded the first video, I hopefully because it
came up with my screen while I was well I
was like, oh, this is cool. So I think that's
the reason they set the time. Now I've had one
cancel on me. I played one, didn't fil I got
a refund.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah, but okay, I also don't understand that. Why does
it need to start at a certain time?

Speaker 2 (11:14):
Just like I said, just to sweat it, I think,
But okay, this is it is twenty twenty five, I correct.
I think, so okay, So as soon as it goes off,
just send the person a push notification or whatever the
heck to their phone and then they can pull it
up and sweat it. Hey, you're all in. The satellite
is starting in five minutes. Boom, good to go.

Speaker 4 (11:32):
That might be too complicated for the platform, but that
is a much better idea than.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Because I don't think you should have I think you
should just have them open and when they fill, that's
when they go off.

Speaker 3 (11:42):
Yeah. I know, I agree with that because then you
can have the different price for.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
You because then you get a four dollars one with
two hundred and fifty people.

Speaker 2 (11:47):
You could ease the two fifty.

Speaker 3 (11:49):
I think you go down to twenty. Yeah, honestly, yeah,
like five you could do.

Speaker 4 (11:54):
You could do a one dollar one, but like it
could take a whole year to fill, so like that's
the problem. But yeah, I think they should definitely do
more price points. You could do higher price points too.
Why could they do three twenty thirty two players, you know,
like why do they have to make it only one sixty?

Speaker 3 (12:10):
You know.

Speaker 4 (12:10):
It's kind of like the you know, like this the
single table flips and when they used to do that.
They've done at the studio too, thousand other flips. Whoever
wins gets in, Yeah, you do that on those two.
Like for WSP it's getting more people in the event,
generating more satellite entrants, and we always talk about this.
You can say we've hit two thousand satellite entrants. It's

(12:31):
February fifteenth, and then everyone's gonna be like, oh my god,
this was so it's gonna be huge, you know. So
you could definitely definitely you know, if I was WSOP
dot com bizarre for the day, this is one of
the first things I would change, Yeah, among a lot
of other things, but this would be one of the
big ones.

Speaker 1 (12:50):
I know, we said it before the summer, you know,
you know, coming into everything. I know we probably said
it at the beginning of the summer as well. Even
if this thing gets let's just throw a number out there,
ninety five hundred. I'm I'm not going to sit there
and look at it like, oh my.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
God, massive, it's a failure.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
Oh my god, shut out massive, you know, like it's
it's not it's ninety five hundred for a ten K.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
It's enormous. It's still very very good. Yeah, would we
all like to have another record, It's fine, you know,
like for it to be a failure, it needs to
get what seventeen thousand, and we're already past that, so
it doesn't matter.

Speaker 4 (13:27):
I would say that, uh, if anything, a low number,
a sub ten thousand number would be mainly more just
a little deflating, you know, for what's been happening in
this world series with big numbers, what's been happening around
the world, happening on the PGT with numbers climbing, would
be just deflating.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
But still, yeah, that was that was all that sort
of stuff I feel like happened before we really got
into it, with a lot of the political stuff, Europeans
possibly not coming over, like I don't know that that's
kind of my feeling on things, you.

Speaker 4 (14:05):
Know, the most important thing though about the this year's
WSP main event. What's that we already hit eighty six
hundred and ninety six centrience, which means the WSP has
worded one point five gosh billion dollars in prize pools
in the fifty six year history of the WSP.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
That's cool, you know either way.

Speaker 4 (14:30):
Yeah, I guess we're going to see on day to two,
D feels like it's going to fall short.

Speaker 3 (14:35):
But you just never know, right, Like we never we
never thought it.

Speaker 2 (14:39):
Was going to break the record, fall short. It's going
to fall short of.

Speaker 4 (14:43):
The record record, Yeah, because I think we I think
we've set the precedent to be like trying to push
the record every year. That's always probably the goal with
any event, right, we do it on the PGT. What
do we have in this event last year? Oh we
had one hundred and twenty Okay, we want one twenty one.
We always want to beat the record.

Speaker 2 (14:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:57):
Right, So, just like when you're doing anything in life
lifting every day.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
I would be curious to like be a fly in
the wall of the conference room when they're breaking down
the reasons as to why the number comes in at
where it comes in at because they don't release everything right,
Like one of the big things that we talked about,
you know, are uniques basically staying the same or are

(15:24):
they even slightly down? And just it's the re entries
that are up mainly because some of the additional starting
flights and stuff like how does that play out? Like,
you know, I don't think we get those numbers fully released,
so we'll see again.

Speaker 2 (15:38):
Just anecnototally.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
I feel like we have fewer Europeans here, which you know,
that's a big group of people. I definitely feel like
we have again today I had like I think three
Japanese players at my table, Like I feel like the
Japanese players are coming out, Like it's that that region
is ready to explode.

Speaker 2 (16:01):
I very much believe it. So when's the money bub
we're going to get.

Speaker 4 (16:11):
Hit at this rate if we're talking like that ninety
six hundred ish or anywhere under ten thousand, I think
it's it could very possibly be late day three. Downside
with late day three means we potentially and when this happened,
I believe two years ago we turned ten you know,
ten hours of play right five levels, but you know,

(16:33):
you had they didn't break out of the other rings
go on the bubble that that last block, the last
two hours sometimes can become three or four hours. So
now we're talking twelve levels of play plus breaks, we're
talking fourteen hours. Everyone's sitting here for our self fish
production side. Now we're playing big overtime for players, that's
just forty hours. That's just a long time. Same with dealers,
the same with all the WSP stuff. So there is

(16:54):
a world where you know, hey, that also you know
the other thing with that is that if you play
that late, if you played a three am, now we
have to maybe two pm the next day. So now
I've just we've lost the level throughout the entire event
and we and we have to play catch up somewhere else.
So if WS be smart, if we can convince them,
we would bag unfortunately, very close to the money on

(17:16):
day late on day three.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
Ideally, how many off would you would you bag it
you have if you were if you were in charge,
twenty off, fifty off.

Speaker 4 (17:25):
If I was in charge of the structure would be different.
So we'd be making the money. But in the current climate,
what can.

Speaker 2 (17:29):
You change about the structure.

Speaker 4 (17:31):
I think we've talked about this, like I would play
nineties on day one, get a Nitra level in Yeah,
look there is just huge and same one day two
is huge. Ninety minutes until registration closed. That's all we need.
I think you want to bag it fifteen from the
money for pure safety if you want to get real,
like if you want to nail it exactly and be

(17:52):
like four off and you just have a miscount and
now you're in the money, Like that's a really bad look.
So bagging fifteen off, you get the chips, you do
for you to do the rejoin, You count everything, you
know exactly where the open seats are, well.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
There should be. There should for sure be no miscount
with the app as well.

Speaker 4 (18:11):
No incorrect because it's still rely on the dealer having
to bust the player out. It's just the same that
I think, Yeah, if you don't if look, let's say
you get to it and it could be some bust
out still log that the TV has to actually bust out.
Does that make sense, Like the dealer busts the guy
out or you know, but the deal the TD has

(18:31):
to then verify that that player is eliminated to circumvent
any mistakes. So if you call it too early, like
if you call it too late and there's still people
in the log that that's where it could be tricky.
But this is going to be all time, right, Like
you're twenty off and you're about to hit the end
of the day, like you just bag them up. You
don't play like ten minutes just to get down to fifteen.

(18:51):
If you're halfway through the level fifteen off, well hey
let's just play through. Let's just try and get there.
So we'll have to make that decision on the day.
But yeah, I could say it happening night of day three,
but for everyone's I think sanity day four morning would
be perfect.

Speaker 1 (19:07):
All right, that sounds good to me. Well, are we
streaming went in the start of day four?

Speaker 4 (19:16):
Yes, I think that was a late change from our team.
We're going to pull it up here. Day four. We
are going to start at yeah, twelve pm, cars in
the air, one o'clock, stream, do three levels, take our
dinner break, come back for the final two levels.

Speaker 2 (19:31):
So got it.

Speaker 4 (19:33):
That's also the same with day three. So day three
and day four is basically our full coverage. And you
know we're going to catch the bubble somewhere, just depends
which day that is. And which which segment that kind
of falls in.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
Alexey Kravchuk looks to be the current chip leader with
almost a million. It's a lot of chips at least
according to Poker News, nine hundred and thirty seven thousand
and five hundred is what they have them at. They
have it at through the day ones and today's date

(20:06):
or yesterday's Day two flight. They have it at eight
six nine four. The total number they have two sixty
five from today and it was two o six last year.

Speaker 4 (20:18):
Have Yeah, I have to sixty six today. That's what
I'm saying, Like it's hot, you have to kind of
take off this number then take up the next numbers.
I really want to see it. We want definite confirmation
on all this. But what number they have a total
of eight thousand, six hundred.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
Yeah, but they haven't included anything from day two D.

Speaker 4 (20:36):
Yeah, but that's only one hundred and eighty eight at
this stage, so that those are real.

Speaker 2 (20:40):
It's on there. Look at the thing. I get it,
I get it, but I just you know, I'm just
telling you it's on their thing.

Speaker 3 (20:45):
Who wrote who write it? I don't know.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
I don't like to help people all out them, right, now,
I mean, how do you how do you know they
did the table?

Speaker 4 (20:54):
I know, I'm comparing it to mine right now, I'm
just going to do some math. Thy six thirty four
kirk one O ninety six seven. See they have seven
nine eight. The app says seven nine seven. That was
a correction today. Hold on, hold on, that was a
correction today. So Perkinese need to fix that one C
twelve forty nine. That's what I have. They have three

(21:14):
seven seven six. Say that's too lighter than mine. So
was that another correction that was late?

Speaker 1 (21:20):
I mean I just added up their numbers and it
does not equal what they have there. So I added
up the nine twenty three, one ninety six, sixteen seventy eight, four,
nine ninety seven and two sixty five, and that gives
me eight thousand, nine and fifty nine.

Speaker 4 (21:34):
And then you add the one eighty eight that's from tomorrow.
That's about the nine one fifty that we.

Speaker 2 (21:39):
Yeah, nine one four seven.

Speaker 4 (21:40):
Yeah, Well they they have two they're two light on
day one D for my numbers. But like I said,
they made a a. There was an adjustment to the
clock for one B that I caught, which they haven't
done on their So yeah, like I said, we need
the we need these confirmed by someone.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
So Alexei Krabchuk bagging the chip lead. It looks like
nine hundred and thirty seven five hundred Randall Locke is
also up there, big on in chips. Eric Bunch, David Cabrera, Paullup,
Thomas Eshien, mart Marte, mart Marte Sandberg, Juliette Hegatus. She

(22:20):
made the final table of the Ladies Championship. I believe
who else? Braxton Dunaway. He's a bracelet winner. Susan Faber,
she's a bracelet winner. Ben Wang looks like he's got
half a million. James Ops your boy, he's doing well.
Chris Hunikan doing well.

Speaker 3 (22:39):
Who else?

Speaker 1 (22:40):
I think I saw? Kevin Gerhardt was in there with
some chips. Jesse Simon Poker Go Shop giveaway, won his
main event seat via the Poker g Shop. He is
in there. He is also doing well. He's bagging up
quite nicely. I think he's got three fifty to four
hundred in that range. Michael Baldwin, a Poker gro annual

(23:02):
subscriber who want to see via the annual subscriber giveaway,
he bagged up same kind of a stack three fifty
to four hundred. Talked with him a little bit after play.
So this is why you guys need to get in
on the giveaways, because you can be in there with
a boatload of chips heading through the day three of
the dobis Appy main event. Looks like Michael mss Rocky

(23:22):
might have backed some chips to d N eggs. Did
he get through?

Speaker 3 (23:26):
He did not see his name, But that doesn't mean
he didn't get through.

Speaker 2 (23:29):
What does that mean he didn't get through?

Speaker 3 (23:31):
I said, that doesn't mean that he didn't give.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
But it's standing on Lagrano.

Speaker 3 (23:34):
I get that.

Speaker 2 (23:35):
Why didn't he get through?

Speaker 3 (23:36):
I am not saying he didn't.

Speaker 2 (23:38):

Speaker 2 (24:53):
Yours truly also bagged forty seven five hundred.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
Baby.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
Tim's about to go to sleep because I'm gonna tell them.
I'm going to tell some hand histories. I'm not going
to do a lot today.

Speaker 4 (25:03):
Oh my God, praise a lot every Jesus.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
I started the day with thirty five eight hundred. I
got down to around twenty four thousand, and then I
quickly started to run it back up. The first level
was relatively uneventful. I think I went to the first
break with I got down and then I got back
up to forty k. I went to the first break
with exactly forty thousand, and then the second level of

(25:33):
the day, I went all the way up to one
sixty seven to five huge.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
You told me that I was like, no way, you
gotta be the lyne and I did it without showdown.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
It's unbelievable.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
I mean, it was a incredible level. Well, this hand
from the first level was against our buddy, the King,
the King John Reardan. I opened the cutoff seat with
Queen Jack of diamonds min raised to sixteen hundred. Blinds
were four to eight. Reardan on the button. He made
it forty eight hundred. It folded back to me. I
called it comes jack, six deuce, two clubs, one diamond.

Speaker 3 (26:07):
I check.

Speaker 1 (26:08):
He bets twenty five hundred. I call turns the nine
of diamonds now giving me a diamond draw.

Speaker 3 (26:12):
I check.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
He goes forty five hundred. I call riverduce of hearts
pairs of the board and goes check check. He mucked
his hand after that. One would have been a very
interesting decision on the river. Should he gone forward, because
he can obviously have better jacks, he can have aces, kings, queens.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
That would have been a big test.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
But thankfully he checked behind and I didn't have to
have that decision, and I just collected the chips. This
hand happened, this this kind of started my little spin
up here in the second level of the day. I mean,
this hand was was freaking as far as I'm concerned.
Was his two thousand and seven poker. There was I'm
not going to out the guys at my table, but
there were two guys that were for sure playing like

(26:54):
two thousand and seven to two thousand and eight ten poker,
like big raises, pretty flop, the big bet on the flop,
not really paying attention to like board textures, like they
were just betting their hands. It's five hundred one thousand,
guy makes it thirty four hundred three point four x. Okay,
I love it, so it folds to me in the

(27:14):
big blind, I have ace queen off suit. How many
bigs forty one or forty two bigs. So you call
I call it comes Queen high, Queen ten seven with
two hearts. I check bet seven K six K, and
I'm like, I mean, I'm like all right, I'm like, let's.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
If you want to play big pop pok, let's just
play big pop poker. Check raised to fifteen.

Speaker 1 (27:38):
He snaps, like, immediately grabs the chips and throws them in. Okay, cool,
turns the aid of diamonds. I'm just like, all right,
I'm all in twenty six twenty thousand, six hundred. I
had to do her in five minute tank. I know, honestly.
I at first I was like, okay, shout out ben Lamb.
I was like, faded the snap Okay. Then he kept

(27:59):
thinking it. I was like, this guy actually might have
a better hand.

Speaker 2 (28:02):
Somehow, some way, bro, trust me, Like, as I watched
him play throughout the day, like there's a chance he
could have had a better hand here, which is wild
to me.

Speaker 1 (28:11):
But anyway, he ends up folding. I get that one
through so amazing. Then I play this hand. This guy
in the cutoff seat had been opening quite a bit
from late position folds to him. It's the same level
five hundred thousand. He makes a twenty two hundred. I'm
in the small blind with Ace nine off suit. I
elect to three bet to seventy five hundred. He calls

(28:34):
it comes Queen Jack eight rainbow. I kind of think
he's all over that, and in a way, I was
like kind of done with the hand. So I just check.
He checks back, turns a ten. I get a straight.
I bet ak. He calls rivers a jack. I go
for eleven k. He thinks for a little while and

(28:57):
ultimately folds his hand. So I won that one. Then
I won a hand where the same guy opens to
twenty three hundred. I called the cutoff seat. He was
in the hijack. I called the cut off seat with
Ace Queen off again. Ace Queen was very on day one.
It was King's were like the hand the Ace Queen

(29:18):
A lot today, OK, like a lot of action with
Ace Queen. I call imposition from the cutoff sea with
Ace Queen off. Flop comes Ace King nine two hearts.
I have the Queen of hearts. He checks. I go
three thousand. He calls U, turn is the Ace of hearts?
Or sorry, turn is the Ace of diamonds. My fault,
I wrote that down wrong on my notes. Turn is

(29:38):
the ace of diamonds. I make trip ases now he checks.
I go eight thousand. He calls rivers the three of diamonds,
so the hearts miss.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
He checks.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
I jam for his remaining eighteen k. He tanks for
a minute or two and folds and I hit one
hundred K. After that hand, I ended up winning a
bunch more pots, get up to one hundred and sixty
seven thousand, which is where I went to break with.
And then I come back and the next three levels
were just I mean, I am I know, I got

(30:12):
up to one six. I know, I started the day
with thirty five point eight. I got all the way
up to one sixty seven point five. And I didn't
really have to show any hands down on that second level,
which was great. Now I did have it a lot too,
so I kind of wanted to show down, but whatever,
I didn't get called anyway.

Speaker 3 (30:31):
But the pots were still pretty big.

Speaker 1 (30:33):
And then after that, I mean, I could like just
not win a hand, could not do anything, and it
was there was one hand where I I probably could
have went broke if the guy played his hand more aggressively.
I opened from the hijack seat to twenty five hundred.
We're playing six hundred twelve hundred with King five of spades.

(30:54):
Cut off calls and the big blind calls. It comes
King ten to five with two clubs. So I flop
top and bottom pair, and there's two clubs out there.
Big blind checks. I go for four thousand. Cut off calls,
like very quickly calls. Big blind folds turn is the
six of diamonds. It's now two clubs and two diamonds.

(31:15):
I go for a larger sizing because it's very draw
heavy here. I go twenty k. He pretty quickly calls rivers,
the ace of diamonds. Backdoor diamonds come in, and I'm like,
he can have like some combos of Queen jackiet. He
could have Queen Jack of diamonds, for example, he could
have Queen Jack of clubs. I go for check. He
snap checks back. He has a set of tens Jesus.

(31:39):
So like if he like raises the flop, we might
just get it in, you know, so so thankfully, I
you know, it was a big pot that I lost.
I lost almost thirty thousand chips there, but I was
kind of like, oh, I could have like and in
my head. Actually in my head when he calls the
flop bed, I'm like, oh, I'm like, like put the
put the five of clubs on the turn, give him

(31:59):
a flush, giving my full house. But of course that
would have doomed me, right, I think really the only
pot that I won in the last three levels was
this hand where the cutoff open to three K. I
call ace Queen off, Ace Queen off. Again from the
big blind, it comes King Queen three with two diamonds.
I check, call small two thousand, turns a seven. It

(32:20):
goes check check, rivers another seven. I check, he bets
eight thousand. I call, he's got just ace nine for
ace high. And then the final level I lost this hand,
which this was again and this was like against this
blaster guy. This guy, this other guy makes it four thousand.
We're playing one thousand and two thousand. Final level. Nights
guy makes it to four thousand. I make it eleven

(32:42):
thousand with queens. Blaster dude just quickly calls in the
big blind. This is you know, just calls.

Speaker 3 (32:50):
Now.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
He when he calls here, he can have kings, he
can have ace king because he played hands like this
where he had those hands like just calling three bets.
Now there's a time and like people raised and he
three bet with those hands, yes, and he finished with
a lot of chips today, maybe three hundred, maybe four hundred.
But there are also times where like he opened and
like somebody three bet him, and like he would like

(33:11):
just call with with the Kings or just call with
the Ace King. So like, I don't know if he
was like just I think he just wanted to kind
of see safe ish flops. I think that was his mentality.
So he calls out of the big blind. The other
guy calls as well. So it comes comes Ace High.
It comes Ace ten to six with two arts. I
don't have the Queen of Hearts. So I'm like, all right, whatever,

(33:32):
just checks around, turns an eight. It's actually a second spade.
It checks around again, rivers the three of hearts, and
I was I was basically in the mode of I
just want to try and get my hand to show
down here. Somehow rivers the three of Hearts. The Hearts
come in and he just bombs out fifteen k from
the big blind. I thought about it for a while.
The other guy full that I thought about it for

(33:53):
a little while, and I was like he has like
just Ace Ace King Ace Jack here, Like, I mean,
he can have Ace Queen two. But if if I
had a heart, maybe it's different. But I didn't have
a heart, so I ended up just folding. So there
was that, And then kind of one of the last
hands of the night, I opened button with king four
off to four K. Big Blind calls it comes ten

(34:13):
seven five rainbow.

Speaker 2 (34:15):
He checks.

Speaker 1 (34:16):
I checked, back, turns a king, he checks. I bet
four K. He goes sixteen K. I'm like, what the
fuck is this? Like all right, I call the rivers
of nine he checks. I check, he is seven five
for flop two pair, So I lose that. So I
just it was a lot of that stuff where I
just couldn't I couldn't really win hands. I was making

(34:38):
some hands, but they were kind of always second best.

Speaker 5 (34:40):
You know.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
There was other times when like I was kind of
trying to enter pots and like you know, I might
call a raise or I might open and then you know,
somebody with three bat or you know whatever, and I
just I couldn't really get involved. So I'm just like
slowly was just like dwindling, dwindling, dwindling, And I end
up on forty seven thy five hundred, So I mean,
all things considered, I felt strong about my play. I

(35:03):
felt confident in the stuff that I was doing, Whereas
Day one I kind of felt like there was a
lot of questions I had coming out of it that
I needed to like go back and look at here.
I was just very confident with these players and how
they were playing that I feel good about things.

Speaker 3 (35:20):
Now.

Speaker 2 (35:20):
Things didn't go my way.

Speaker 1 (35:21):
I got up really well to one hundred and sixty
seven point five, and I just really slowly declined for
the next six hours. But I also feel like, like that
hand with the King five against the tens, like I
was ready to like play a massive pot with this guy,
and like if he plays it differently, or if he
maybe raises me or whatever, then you know, maybe we
just get the money in and I'm like out or

(35:44):
I have like ten k laughter or whatever it is.
So there was definitely kind of some spots like that.
So yeah, I feel very fortunate to be bagging. For
day three. I mean, I'll try and spin it up again.
We come back to twenty five hundred big blind, so
you know, it's not the not the absolute worst thing
in the world, you know, I wish I had the
one hundred and sixty seven that I had, But I mean,

(36:04):
shit happens. I still got nineteen big blinds to work with.
If I can snatch a double up early, I'm gonna
be cooking with forty big blinds and that's a bowload
in the main. But these guys today, I mean, there
was one Japanese kid. I got to shout this kid out. God, damn,
it's on my phone. It's always on my phone. I
thought this kid played incredible. He I'm pretty sure he

(36:24):
bought in today because he came to our table in
the empty seat was sixty K.

Speaker 2 (36:29):
So he bought in today.

Speaker 1 (36:31):
And he got down to like around twenty to twenty five,
and he was around twenty to twenty five for a
large majority of the day. But he was always like,
he was pretty active. He was still fighting a lot.
He was a handful to deal with at all times.
And he ended up finishing with I believe a bit
over one hundred. He hit like the last level. He

(36:53):
did really well. I thought he was a really, really
solid player. There were three or four players at my
table that were playing like it was fucking two thousand
and seven, and just like bombing these pots like like
hands were like like you raise like second position and
you get called like from two people behind you, and
like it comes like eight seven six with a flush

(37:13):
straw like as like an early position pre flop raiser,
Like you should kind of have like almost no connectivity
to that in a lot of spots. And it's also
tricky to play out a position, but like these guys
would just bomb it away, like probably just like bombing
their queens, you know, And it's like I'm just like,
what is you know? I mean I guess sometimes I
guess you just got to do that, but like, yeah,

(37:33):
it was very interesting. It was a very interesting day.
I'm on to day three. I believe it's my second
time making day three. I've played this thing four times now,
as you guys know, a bit frustrated after day one
with how things went there here, even though things ultimately
didn't go my way getting up to one sixty seven
point five and then just you know, steadily sliding in

(37:55):
the other direction. I could not be happier to fucking
make it through.

Speaker 3 (37:59):
I really couldn't.

Speaker 1 (38:00):
So I'll just do it I can with these nineteen bigs,
and we'll go from there. There was a lot of
times when like you're just sitting there and you just
like I saw this, this kid this, he just gave
it away, yeelong Wang. I believe he won the three
K to this this year for eight hundred and thirty

(38:20):
thousand dollars. He gets moved to my table to the left.
He plays his hand, He's like he's playing solid. This
is after John Reard and busts out, speaking of like
having shitty Jay's days. I come in with thirty eight five.
John Ard and came in with like eighty five, and
he just like went from eighty five just like down down,
down down out and the busted like it was just
a crappy day for John for the king. So you, huh,

(38:42):
he'll be fine. He will be fine, yes, but still
eelong Wang takes his seat playing solid. He's chipping up nicely,
and then he plays his hand against the blaster guy
where he just like he just gives it away. He
opens under the gun at I want to say six
and or twelve hundred. He makes it twenty five. I

(39:02):
think blaster guy three bets to eight K. It gets
back to Whang. He makes it twenty k. Blaster guy
calls it comes Queen. Hi comes like Queen ten, like
eight or something. It goes bet call and then the

(39:24):
turn is like a seven and the kid bets again
and the blaster guy jams.

Speaker 2 (39:32):
The kid thinks forever and calls it off with King
Queen and the other guy has kings And I'm just like,
what in the world just happened?

Speaker 1 (39:43):
What's going on? Like, see, that wasn't so bad. I
can't wait to hear your fucking hair well. I folded
for eighty five thousand hours.

Speaker 3 (39:54):
That's what we gotta do to cash. You gotta do
what That's what you gotta do to cash. You gotta
fold to the fold, fold to the money. He definitely
got a fold to the money.

Speaker 1 (40:09):
Twenty dollars, no limit, hold him carry kats el Hafe himself.
He wins his first WSP gold bracelet. I have never
seen Carrie as excited as I saw him. Kind of
did a little jump, hands up in the air, clapping
hugs all around, even went over to that crazy Brazilian round.
Was like, thank you guys. Yeah, you know, the whole

(40:30):
thing was was nuts. Morey was jumping up and down
like you know, it was a good day. He topped
a twelve hundred and ninety nine entry field. He won
four hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

Speaker 3 (40:42):
But we an't got a race.

Speaker 2 (40:44):
We did, We definitely did not get a race.

Speaker 4 (40:47):
He's chopping it off amongst the team. Oh yeah, sure,
I swar He said that when we were celebrating.

Speaker 3 (40:51):
Yeah, yeah, whatever.

Speaker 1 (40:52):
He defeated Brazilian Breno Drummond in second place. Breno Drummond
was multi table in between heads up play and the
main events. He won almost three hundred thousand dollars for
his second place finish. The King and I John Rudin
were like worl over on the other side of the room,
and it was like loud chanting, and we kept saying like, oh,
that must be bad for Carry, that must be bad

(41:12):
for Carrie.

Speaker 2 (41:12):
He loved it, no, but but Carrie was. Carrie was
ahead the whole time.

Speaker 1 (41:17):
Like the way that they were chanting, it made it
seem like the other guy was like nothing.

Speaker 2 (41:20):
Carry.

Speaker 4 (41:21):
They were chanting for nearly every Carrie would have been
a part. They would chant. The dealer would deal do something,
they would chant. They would call the dealer a goat
like in Brazilian. They were training for everything, and it
was a pretty fun atmosphere.

Speaker 3 (41:32):
Good. There was one point where I.

Speaker 4 (41:33):
Think Breno won a part pushed the pot, the cheers,
the cheers that Brenner got up, he high five the's
Royal Carrie got up high five to the rail, so
very like for a heads up match playing for four
hundred and fifty thousand dollars, it was quite relaxing. But yeah,
it was great Royal. There's probably thirty Brazilians there. There
was probably five Poker Go employees and then probably four

(41:58):
or five of Carre where he's close, you know, friends
and family, so there was a good It was a
pretty lively rail both sides of things, and yeah, Kerry
kind of broke through to win. But I kind of
want to talk a little bit about Breno because anything's
little unfair that it made him come back while he

(42:18):
had to play the main.

Speaker 1 (42:20):
So did they make him come back? Like how did
it go? I don't know how it went, so I
need to know. I needed to know how, like how
the conversation went.

Speaker 4 (42:26):
So the night before we became aware that he has
a stack. In the next day they went on break,
so we're like, oh, okay, well that makes sense, he's
got to play, they want to finish it. Five minutes
later a while in break other people were bagging their chips,
so it didn't make any sense to us either way.
They came back at one o'clock, so on an hour

(42:47):
and to day to day to play. I thought maybe
they could try and make something work with him and
maybe restart at least dinner, But no, they started straight.

Speaker 2 (42:55):
How did it work?

Speaker 3 (42:56):
Like?

Speaker 1 (42:56):
How did the I don't know how the conversation was
okay with this? Did he suggest it? Did he?

Speaker 3 (43:02):
There?

Speaker 4 (43:02):
Obviously is a bit of a language barrier there, so
I didn't know, but I.

Speaker 3 (43:06):
Didn't see him.

Speaker 2 (43:07):
Language barriers there, well, if he doesn't speak English. Yeah,
But there's the reason why I say it like that
is because there are plenty of It's not like it's
not like he's the only.

Speaker 4 (43:19):
When he was, we were still there when they backed up,
and he didn't see him like bothered. It was just
like that he did an interview with the Pugago Brazil
team and I didn't when he was playing, I didn't
see him running to his stack. I wasn't there for
every hand, but because there was another match going on
that was pretty important. But I didn't see him running
like his table was actually runnerable.

Speaker 3 (43:41):
That the right word runner runnerable.

Speaker 4 (43:45):
Thirty feet away, so he could essentially could have done
it if he really wanted to. But either way, yeah,
he was a bit unfair, but still what He's still
got second place nearly three hundred thousand dollars. Unfortunately did
bust the main event today, so but hey, three hundred
king pucket not too shabby.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Yeah, of course. I mean Carrie was pumped afterwards, and
we can we can play. Let's play the final hand,
and then he speaks with Natalie Body right afterwards.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
I'm sure to be here, said all in here, it's
pocket three's versus ace Jack.

Speaker 3 (44:19):
Pocket three's verses Jack. Can he fade? And he can?

Speaker 2 (44:22):
And carry Katz is just one is first world series

what I feel like playing, I'm just going to jump
in that freeze out late. My wife was like a
really irritation. Can to play a two You're going to
play a two thousand dollars event? So to hang out
with me, I go. I just feel compelled to play.
So it actually worked out pretty well.

Speaker 5 (45:54):
And as Faye would have it, it leads you to
your first bracelet. What does this bracelet mean to you?

Speaker 6 (46:02):
That bracelet means the world to me. I uh, I
was starting to think I would never get one, but uh,
you know, this was my time. I felt lucky throughout
the entire tournament. I felt very I'm very grateful for
all the luck I had in this event, because you know,
to get through one and ninety nine players, I mean,
you've got to you know, it's a lottery ticket and

(46:24):
you got to get really, really lucky. And I drew
the one.

Speaker 4 (46:27):
He number.

Speaker 2 (46:28):
He had three previous runner out finishes here at the
World Series. Do you know the events?

Speaker 3 (46:33):
One was the one hundred k Who won it? Not
a million? Was it kol Lev?

Speaker 5 (46:38):
No?

Speaker 3 (46:39):
No, wasn't Ponakas? Nope, give me one hind Dutch guy.

Speaker 4 (46:46):
Oh my god, I can see his face right now.

Speaker 2 (46:51):
Color herrit?

Speaker 3 (46:52):
Is he?

Speaker 2 (46:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (46:54):
Yon's Arons, Oh fucking yons aurons. Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
He finished second in a five kt leomit hold them
event fucking nineteen eighty five, twenty thirteen a lot and
then second in a fifteen hundred dollars event.

Speaker 1 (47:11):
No way, one of those events. I think it was
the fifteen hundred he finished second to Motion Sharania okay,
and then I don't know who he finished second too
in the other one. Probably Steves alto problem with Steve
za Z.

Speaker 2 (47:25):
So.

Speaker 1 (47:25):
Yeah, so Carrie finally gets his bracelet, long time coming.
It's funny that he won in a twenty five hundred
dollars yeah, freeze out. I figured he would just bank
one of these ten.

Speaker 3 (47:34):
Ks or whatever.

Speaker 4 (47:35):
You know, probably probably a pretty still a tough field though,
twenty five hundred freeze out.

Speaker 3 (47:40):
Oh yeah, very tough field for sure.

Speaker 1 (47:42):
We mentioned Brener Drummonds second place, Jay Hun Bayek third place,
two hundred thirteen thousand, Preston McEwan fourth place for one
hundred and fifty five thousand. Those are the four players
that came back for the final day. Obviously, Carrie comes
out on top. Another winner was crowned today over in
the one K Nolan and Holdham zik Zizka. He beat

(48:04):
the one and only Sean efin DEEB eighteen hundred and
seventy three entries. There, Ziska wins two hundred and thirty
two thousand dollars. Sean Deep took second for one hundred
and fifty four k. Sean Deep now has a third,
a second, a second, a first and a second. Jeffrey
Tony took third, and that's important because he's a poke

(48:25):
gro podcast listener. Baby, let's go one hundred and twelve
k for Tony. And I believe Deep stretches out his
lead on the top unconfirmedly though. So I want to
talk about it so much, but it's so so difficult.

Speaker 3 (48:40):
It's not difficult. You can just know it's difficult. Talk
about it.

Speaker 2 (48:45):
It's difficult. It's not up to date.

Speaker 4 (48:47):
No, he is on top three seven eighty five point
seven points mont combrel thirty three.

Speaker 1 (48:53):
But he was already on top what he was I'm
pretty sure he was already on top.

Speaker 4 (48:57):
Okay, so you're start an update a lot that I saw.
I still had Cobrell on top.

Speaker 2 (49:02):
Yeah, but but I believe with.

Speaker 1 (49:06):
I want to say, with the PLO win that put
him on top, Like because they ran.

Speaker 4 (49:11):
The numbers, it put him on top. But I don't
think when I checked the lead aboard it, yeah, it wasn't.

Speaker 1 (49:15):
On there, but they ran the numbers and they were like, okay,
now he's in first place. So now I'm thinking how
far how much of a gap did he push ahead
of Cabrell even further? Right that That's kind of what
I'm thinking. So and Deep still hasn't jumped to the
main event.

Speaker 4 (49:30):
Has he No, and I probably don't think he will. Well,
I mean maybe he max me and him coming in together.
Maybe he max lates right, possibly?

Speaker 3 (49:39):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (49:40):
You why not?

Speaker 1 (49:42):
I mean, obviously there's a bunch of other stuff, but
I was thinking maybe he just max lates it and
tries to spin it. But yeah, anyway, congrats to znik
Ziska on his first WSP Go races. The six hundred
dollars Ultimate Stack two hundred and thirteen players or man,
this is the true, This is the true?

Speaker 3 (49:59):
What did I say? Ultimate?

Speaker 1 (50:01):
Whatever? This is the freaking Loser's Lunch tournament. Okay, the
six ultimate stuff. John Shorman, I think he messaged me
and said I'm in the Loser's Launch tournament.

Speaker 6 (50:12):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
Six dollars ultra Stack, two hundred and thirteen of two
of twenty seven hundred and eighteen are remaining. Philip Pope
is leading the way with fifty five big blinds.

Speaker 3 (50:25):
That's just day one A.

Speaker 1 (50:26):
By the way, Oh there's one A those two okay.
David Williams, Kaitlyn Kameski, men Win, David Moses, Esther Reardon,
jeff Yarchiverer are all still in both Kaitlyn Camesi and
Esther Reard, and I know for a fact busted the
main events, so they are in fact in the Losers
Lounge tournament.

Speaker 3 (50:44):
We love you guys. We just like to make fun
of this stuff.

Speaker 2 (50:47):
Four hundred and eight are in the money. Where what
is this? Oh? They cash in the flight cash.

Speaker 3 (50:52):
Yeah? Sorry, I'm all over the place.

Speaker 4 (50:53):
I currently guaranteed thirteen hundred and fifty nine dollars.

Speaker 2 (50:56):
So are they bag?

Speaker 3 (50:57):
They're done for the day, yeah, got it?

Speaker 4 (50:59):
Yeah, but they one B of this tomorrow, so probably
expect to play you know, twenty two levels or whatever
it is. Get down about two hundred and something players
come back day two, et cetera.

Speaker 3 (51:09):
How do I play this tomorrow? I'm kidding, I'm kidding.

Speaker 4 (51:13):
Let's say, just touching back on Seawan Deep obviously you
have this has an option for him instead of the
main event. But the next day, I know we're gonna
touch on what's coming coming up for Monday. There's only
day one B. But if we talk about Tuesday looking
forward a little further, We've got a plow mystery bountie
that's on Deeps. Also got a five K turbo another event,

(51:33):
on the Sean Dee schedule probably highlighted that. So there's
those two events that you know, hey, I'm going to
skip them and play these. And we look further one
more day. We look at Wednesday fifty K high Roller
three K mid Stakes Championship, So him.

Speaker 2 (51:49):
Skipping that, but that three K doesn't that that's a
long tournament.

Speaker 4 (51:53):
Yeah, that's the one I would expect him to miss
because if he skips that, he can play a seven
seven seven, he can play a fifteen hundred plo, he
can play three K toss some of the like. Making
a decision to skip the main event for POY Honors
is not really horrible if you just basically had to
accumulate more points, does make sense to kind of skip
the main which can you know, essentially you can lock

(52:14):
you in for four days right before you even make
more money, before you even get a single point. So
look at Sean. He's played, he's won, he won a
bracer and finished second, all within three days of the
opening flights of the main event.

Speaker 1 (52:34):
What do we got going on on Monday, July seventh. Oh,
by the way, we didn't mention the time. Well, right now,
it's one forty seven am. I never mentioned the time,
but it's one forty seven am right now, and we've
been going for fifty five minutes. So you guys can
do the math. We started at what twelve forty two
something like that. Yeah, day one dates Day two D terrible. Huh,

(52:57):
my math is terrible.

Speaker 3 (52:58):
What do you mean?

Speaker 4 (53:00):
Well, forty two would mean we've been recording for an
hour in fact, Yeah, sorry, I know, I'm off twelve
fifty seven, buddy, whatever cares.

Speaker 2 (53:07):
I'm not mentally switched on. I'm here, I'm focused. I'm
so switched on that I'm I don't care about that
adding ten minutes, Yeah, whatever, who gives a shit?

Speaker 4 (53:15):
Tomorrow Monday, July seventh, Like we said, day two D
of the WSP main event, you can get in all
the way until four forty Yes, that's right, four forty
Uh also day one bay of the six hundred.

Speaker 2 (53:28):
Do you know that?

Speaker 1 (53:29):
Like at my table today there were three people that
did not know you could register still there, including John Rudin.

Speaker 3 (53:37):
He's an idiot, he's a bufferin.

Speaker 1 (53:39):
But I'm just saying like that, like it's it's not
known by everyone. I just assumed everyone just knew. I mean,
if you're gonna know the structure of any tournament, wouldn't
you know the structure of the main event?

Speaker 2 (53:51):
And you know, because because John was asking me, like, oh,
like I didn't know people could like still register for
like multiple levels into day two. I thought it was
just day two. I was like, no, you can come
in level whatever. At level eight you have fifty bigs. Yeah,
like it's a ton. And then a couple of other
people echoed the same thing. They had they had no idea.

Speaker 3 (54:13):
So you couldn't beat these idiots.

Speaker 1 (54:17):
No, I could not beat these idiots. Okay, I mean
I outlasted John Reardon. Does that count? I out asked
John Reardon. I aut asked e Loong Wang, both the
bracelet winners that were at my table. So I feel
like that's a win.

Speaker 3 (54:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (54:30):
But I could all beat the chat. I mean, this
guy I heard him not He just talked the whole time,
the whole time he was over, he was he was
like one hundred and fifty feet from men, hundred feet
hundred feet from me. Could hear him non stop talking?
He's he is a talker. But you know, you gotta focus,

(54:53):
you gotta focus on.

Speaker 3 (54:54):
The what didn't work? The stuff that's happening. Hey, that's
that's everything that's happening on Monday.

Speaker 2 (55:00):
It's gonna be a packed houson here.

Speaker 1 (55:02):
Obviously big, the big Day one, the day one, your
Day two D restart, you know, is going to be amazing.
But I is it void of stars? Because I feel
like the Negron used the Helme Youth, I mean, Ivey
already busted, but like you had all those, you had
the Miss Rocky, Nick Rigby, you know, like you had

(55:23):
all them playing the earlier flights and then they played today.

Speaker 2 (55:28):
Yeah, so who the heck is left on day for
Day two D.

Speaker 4 (55:33):
I'm notually different people, to be honest, but yeah, you
are right. Did feel like the styles were very heavy
on the opening three flights, but yeah, we'll see.

Speaker 3 (55:41):
I guess we'll see.

Speaker 4 (55:42):
I'll shot in the chip counts from one, say, to
see if I can find the biggest name and price
Yuki is kind of it right now.

Speaker 2 (55:49):
Jason Mercier played today.

Speaker 3 (55:51):
I talked to Jason, so.

Speaker 1 (55:52):
I got but I'm saying he played today. Martin Cabrell
played today, bus Phil Helm Youth played today. Dan and
m'granno played today. Michel Miss Rocky play today. Vanessa Selbs
played today. She and Okugodo played yesterday, so she'll played
on Monday. I mean, I feel like I feel like
the the star power on Day one ABC was better

(56:12):
than the star power on Day one D.

Speaker 4 (56:14):
But also we didn't see much a day one day.
There's so many tables in Paris we didn't even get
over there. So you know, it's true. It's very so
what was here and it wasn't great, But well if.

Speaker 2 (56:23):
It ain't here, it don't matter. Okay, That's just how
it is.

Speaker 3 (56:27):
Man.

Speaker 2 (56:28):
You gotta saddleite your way into horseshoe. You gotta last.
You got to last. You gotta last long enough.

Speaker 1 (56:34):
You got a ladder and you gotta last long enough
to get your ass over here a horseshoe.

Speaker 2 (56:39):
Maybe you get the luck of the draw.

Speaker 3 (56:40):
On your Anthony Zina.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
Yeah, I mean there's obviously gonna be names. I'm just saying,
like Philip Black, then Philip Black, Philip Black, phil Lock
would be a good one. Is gen Tilly playing? I
think she did, but she could be definitely a day too.

Speaker 2 (56:54):
Kind of max leate max late, Eric Blair with some
chips finally do something? Has he cashed it all this summer.
I feel like I'm not in PGT points all right,
community cards.

Speaker 4 (57:10):
I don't quick sorry. Saw Jason Mercia. He looked bored
out of his mind, and I'm like, you going okay?
He's like, yeah, I'm just I'm like, here's a lot
of chips.

Speaker 3 (57:19):
He did.

Speaker 4 (57:20):
I was like, is it because it's not a living
hold him? Is it because it's because it's everything? It's
not a living hold him? It's nine handed? Said, why
didn't you just register one day?

Speaker 3 (57:27):
Two days?

Speaker 4 (57:28):
I don't know, man. I came late last night. I
thought maybe I can accumulate some chips. It kind of worked. Yeah,
I'm kind of over it. Mink Cabrell got an email
from our president this morning saying that Mink Combrell called
him and said we do not allow to put him
on the feature table. So I walked over to Martin Cabrell,
what do you mean allowed to work? He was not

(57:49):
feeling well? He said, I'm not feeling well. I don't
want to be on the feature table. And we're like, okay, whatever,
we'll find something better. I walked over there. He was
very lively, very energetic, kind of funny. I was like,
that's interesting.

Speaker 2 (58:01):
He was on the rail for seawn deep.

Speaker 3 (58:03):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (58:03):
We chatted a little bit, came back. We picked the
gronder table, we picked the helmet table. I told out
buy a write a key, and I said, let's play
a prank on manin care. We did the noginder table.
Then we said I'm gonna let's walk to Martin's table
and we're stand near the table until he understands what
in his eyesight.

Speaker 3 (58:21):
He plays a hand, he follows.

Speaker 4 (58:22):
He goes, Timmy boy, can I talk to you, please,
Timmy boy, come here? Yes, sir, what would you like?
Because he now when he was old, now he does this,
he doesn't. He holds his back and he gets up slowly.
You're not gonna put me on the feature table like you.

(58:43):
I'm not feeling very well. I'm like, I haven't really
decided yet, Martin, but we can.

Speaker 3 (58:48):
We might.

Speaker 4 (58:49):
There's no, no, no, no, Timmy boy, Timmy boy, I
can't go up there. I can't go up there. I
go why there's not feeling well? Please please please please
don't do it. Don't do this, don't do this. He's
like groveling to me. I'm still holding the clipboards, and
I said, I can't promise that you're not going up
at one point, but right now you're not. And then
we went to fill hem with so my Michael, but
let's go community cards really quickly. Thirty three hats the left.

(59:12):
If you still want one, come get one from us.
You know the Magic were its family part, Come get one.
Thirty three are left sitting right here. Brian Brennekee today
is playing next to Adam Hendrix. I was talking to
Adam Hendrix and Brian rees like lean he said, family part.
I got you gave him one. Unfortunately Brian busson from

(59:34):
the main event, so that's not good. I did put
a bounie on Adam Hendrix's head at the table. He survived,
so we have to get a new BOUNDI Matt from
Hawaii was actually on the rail near you. Ok, gave
him a hat. We had the little chat. Gave a
hat out to one of Jeff's posse. We'll call it.
I said, for no Jeffrey Tony who finished.

Speaker 2 (59:55):
Oh I gave.

Speaker 4 (59:57):
I gave it and I said are you are you
missus Jeff from Green Bay? And she's like, definitely not
just just friends with Jeff. Okay, that's fine. So I
gave her a hat. But yeah, like I said, thirty
three more hats left what we got nine days something
like that, and really quickly for Producer Rich to duck
up forgot to change our little ticket here of how
many days we've been here, he was stuck on thirty

(01:00:20):
eight for a few I've updated to forty one. But
Producer Ridge, you can put a duck up here, my bad.

Speaker 2 (01:00:25):
Don't you owe Jeff Platt a duck up?

Speaker 3 (01:00:27):
No?

Speaker 2 (01:00:28):
I think you did.

Speaker 3 (01:00:29):
No, no, no, because we said Adriam Mitaos was out.

Speaker 4 (01:00:31):
He's not well. He might be now, but he wasn't
at the time. But I was just going off poconess.
That's still a duck up, and it's really a pocon
News slip up.

Speaker 2 (01:00:42):
Yeah, but it's it's on you at the end of
the day.

Speaker 3 (01:00:45):
Man, I have to claim it. I have to.

Speaker 2 (01:00:47):
Really, it's not that you have to claim it. You can.

Speaker 1 (01:00:50):
You can assign the blame elsewhere I signed them. Still
it's still a duck.

Speaker 3 (01:00:53):
Up, Okay, I put it here right there, duck up.

Speaker 2 (01:00:56):
And apologize to Jeff Platt.

Speaker 4 (01:01:00):
That's okay. Let's not take it that far. When I
say Mataias back today, I don't know. I saw him
in the hallway at one point, but that's it. That
doesn't really help I know that doesn't help it. Well,
Poconews says that he backed ninety four thousand, five hundred.

Speaker 3 (01:01:17):
Maybe he did so just putting that in.

Speaker 4 (01:01:19):
Poconew's chip counts responsor by gto Wizard. The blame is there,
gto Wizard, N you.

Speaker 2 (01:01:26):
Don't blame the sponsor. Okay, you never blame this.

Speaker 3 (01:01:28):
I'm blaming not me.

Speaker 4 (01:01:29):
I'm never blaming the sponsor. All the blame of Agria
Mitia's surviving off me.
