com slash rules for official terms.All right, how many? How many
(03:04):
are? How much are people gettingpaid? Can you tell me? Scroll
down the rundown because when I putthat infide, you would say that it
says they guaranteed hundred set. Listen. I'm asking you a question, so
you will speak, not because I'mnot looking at the rundown. You're literally
on my screen right here. Yeah, how it says day five started,
(03:24):
which first of all, it's daysix four sixty four started approximately fifty nine
remain I think it's fifty nine.You know, you say twenty twenty three,
there was forty nine. Headit it'sor ten five. I'm trying to
give you some airtime on this podcast. I talk too much. I talk
too much. That's part of thereason why I talk too much is because
(03:46):
you don't talk. Because because one, every time I come back here to
do the podcast, you're sleeping ortwo you're on Instagram. I'm not buying
a bike or doing some shit overthere. There's nothing to do. Yes,
Actually, I need to go homeand build it unbelievable. Help me
build it unbelievable. All right,So they're guaranteed what now, one hundred
and sixty k. Jesus, that'spay jump, next day jump fifty third
(04:10):
place. We're going to basically go, uh table for table. Now we're
gonna go two hundred k of fiftythree, two fifty K forty four,
three hundred K thirty fifth, threefifty K twenty six and then the random
number of four hundred and fifty thousanfour hundred dollars at seventeen. So I
got a question about this because youyou mentioned the paye jumps, and you're
the guy who's probably the resident expertcircually more so than me in this area.
(04:34):
Do we need chot clocks out there? Yes, I mean ten thousand
percent. The stalling for the payjumps is getting to be outrageous. I
mean, and listen, I Iwould probably be doing the same damn thing.
Don't get me wrong, Okay,but it is getting to be a
bit much. Yeah, So thesix to seven eliminations behind the pace we
(04:54):
needed or the pace that was setlast year. People understand the page jumps,
they understand the store, they knowthe game to play. Putting a
shot clock in the main event wouldbe new, just like when WP to
The first event they did it,I think was WPT chocktaw That was my
first ever WPT event. It needsit. The question in the WSP main
event is when do you implement theshock clock. If you put it in
(05:16):
the bubble, right, we needwhat is it, one hundred and fifty
one hundred and sixty tables worth ofchockol. There's no chance you can do
it near the bubble, there's justtoo many. I think it's I think
at day six. I mean maybethey could, but it's just too hard.
Day six would be a good day. I think that was even Day
five. Day five is fifty tables. You could do it for fifty tables.
(05:38):
I don't know, that's all Iwould. I would rather start smaller
and build up as opposed to justintroduce it and have it be or have
it go haywire early on. SoI think now for sure, like day
seven, they should for sure haveit day six, you know, I
think you can definitely introduce it.It's just the stalling is getting to be
(05:59):
pretty crazy. And listen, Iunderstand that players are going to do it,
and again, I know I'm likehating on it, but I'm also
going to say that I would bedoing it if there was a pay jump.
I mean, that's just how itis. I remember at the WPT
World Championship a couple of years ago, a couple of times I stalled,
and I wish I stolled longer atthe end to get a pay jump.
But you know, that's just howit is. It's not even like other
(06:21):
players at the table are necessarily likeworried about it, because a lot of
times the players will just be like, yeah, I'm just gonna stall,
Like they'll just flat out say it, and the other players be like,
yeah, I get it, Like, you know, it's a fifteen K
pay jump, Why I would doI think it would just create a better
product overall. I agree. Now, obviously we're going into a forty K
(06:41):
pay jump coming up, but thiswas happening when the pay jumps were the
minimum amount. Hey, yeah,for sure, we were tracking. You
know how often the tables broke becausewe were trying to, you know,
calculate what tables to take up therefor the features, and like these tables
breaking every five minutes, ten minutes. But then once a pay jump came
up, even though it was likea five K pay jump, well even
less twenty five hundred, the rightwould rapidly slow down for a few tables.
(07:03):
So it's not just we're not justtalking forty K pay jumps. We're
talking all pay jumps where this is. This is happening because the end of
the day, it's money, youknow, like whether it's twenty five hundred
dollars or twenty five thousand dollars,you know, every little dollar counts.
Yeah, no, for sure.So yeah, as Tim mentioned, one
hundred and sixty k is guaranteed,fifty third goes up to two hundred thousand
(07:26):
and forty fourth two hundred and fiftythousand. We're gonna try tomorrow or sorry
today, on day seven to playdown to eighteen. That's the goal.
It's the rule. The rule,it's a requirements, the requirement. I
mean that could take forever. It'sbecause we're behind, we're behind to take
six levels. Oh yeah, yeah, players aren't gonna be happy about that.
(07:49):
They can have a late to slotthe next step, because so they're
gonna take them five hours to getto nine. Yeah, I mean it
is. It's gonna be a grindtomorrow for sure. So up top looks
like we have Kevin Davis leading theway. That seems a little bit surprising
that Kevin Davis is leading. Whatdo you have against Kevin Davis? Nothing.
(08:09):
I just didn't think Kevin Davis wasthe chip leader. I thought it's
surprising. It's very flat. Ithought it was gonna be very flat.
Yeah, So Kevin Davis has twentysix million, two hundred and fifty thousand,
and then one two, three,four, five, six seven.
Seventh place is Daniel Zadok with twentythousand, three hundred twenty million, three
(08:31):
hundred and twenty five thousand, So, you know, pretty pretty flat.
I mean, I know there's sixmillion difference, but still, I mean
it is, it is pretty flatoverall. So it goes Kevin Davis up
top twenty six million, two hundredand fifty thousand. Shun Den Jao twenty
three million, nine hundred and twentyfive thousand. That's one of two female
(08:52):
players left. It's her and KristenFoxen are the only two left. Malo
Latinos I probably butcher that name,I'm sorry, twenty two million, three
hundred and seventy five thousand, GuillermoSanchez Otero twenty one million, nine hundred
and seventy five thousand, yaik Wutwenty million, eight hundred and seventy five
thousand, Jegoor Morose also known asYeggs twenty million, five hundred seventy five
(09:16):
thousand, and then Daniel Zaduke twentymillion, three hundred and twenty five thousand.
So those are the seven players withat least twenty million chips. Looking
throughout the rest of the field,we have Orson Young eighteen million, three
hundred and fifty thousand. We haveJason James fifteen million, eight hundred and
(09:37):
twenty five thousand. And interesting noteabout Jason James. So if you remember
when Espen Georgstad won the WSP MainEvent a couple of years ago, he
won the tag team event with PatrickLeonard, Well, Jason James won the
Tag Team event this year and nowhe's in the final fifty nine of the
WSP Main Event. He's a lockto win. I mean, yeah,
right, that's how it works.Nicholas Ostelle fifteen million, eight hundred thousand
(10:01):
for Leana nine hundred. We haveKristen Foxen backed up fourteen and a half
million, Jonathan Tamiles in there,thirteen point three million, Joseph Rock is
in there, thirteen zero point oneseven five million. You got the Hall
of Famer, the six times begoal bracelet winner, mister Brian Rast He's
(10:22):
still in twelve million, six hundredand seventy five thousand. Brian Kim nine
million, nine hundred and seventy fivethousand, Russell Rosenbloom nine million, one
hundred and seventy five thousand, ArthurMorris Pro Poker podcast pro Arthur Morris five
million, nine hundred and twenty fivethousand, just absolutely could not kill him
today. Jesse Capps is in therequacking his way to day seven five million,
(10:48):
nine hundred and twenty five thousand.Alex Keating is in there. He's
got five million, two hundred andfifty thousand. He got Brandon Cantu,
who had Phil Helmuth on his railat the end of the night, four
point eight million for him. StephenSong, our guy team DPMC came into
the day with the chip lead.He finishes as one of these shorter stacks,
(11:09):
remaining with two million, one hundredand seventy five thousand. The shortest
stack returning looks to be Randy Getescowith five hundred and seventy five thousand.
Two Big, two Big, It'sgoing to be two fifty I think.
So yeah, they finished at onetwo, one hundred thousand, So yeah,
I'm guessing two hundred and fifty thousand. All right, what do you
(11:31):
What are your lead stories? Sir? Lead story was Chrissy Foxon dominating.
She took a few steps backs,but she's still in the mix. To
me, that is a I thinkbiggest name. Now you could probably Algie
Brian Rass, but you know,we're gonna have to give a couple extra
points to Chrissy for being a female, being a high roller Crusha now crushing
(11:52):
the biggest ten K in the world. So to me, that's my number
one story. How about you?I agree? I think Chris and fox
And is the number one story goingforward. I think it's pretty credible what
she's doing. You know, shefinished on fourteen and a half million.
I forget where she came in exactly, but I mean today, if you
(12:15):
watched the coverage on Poker Goro.She had hand after hand after hand,
and she was in there constantly,you know, I mean she's she's aggressive
by nature. She does stay activeat the table, but it of course
helps when you pick up really goodhands. She had some nice momentum at
the end of the night. Shebusted a player when she had threes versus
(12:35):
Ace King. She flopped a setand held from there. The money went
on on pre flop, and thenshe ran a nice bluff at least according
to her, at the end ofthe night. And I caught up with
her afterwards to chat. And here'sthat interview right now, all right,
Kristin Foxin, how did they gofor you today? It was fun?
(12:58):
It was uh, a rollercoaster,very eventful day. Not a smooth day
by any means. A lot ofaction, a little bit, yeah,
intense, stressful, but ended ona very good note. I was going
to ask you about that end there. You know, you pick up the
threes, you call the all in, you flop a set. That must
feel good to have that momentum goinginto day seven, definitely, And I
(13:22):
got a huge fluff throw for StephenSong, so that one really helped.
Yeah, yeah, definitely very gratefulfor the end. I think I paid
Nicholas off in a hand where herivered a flush, and yeah, there
was a it felt a little bitlike I'd gain momentum and then lose and
whatever. But yeah, I feelgreat. You mentioned Stephen Song, you
(13:46):
mentioned Nicholas. Feels like everything's gettinga little bit tougher. How's the competition
been as you get closer and closerto the finish line. Yeah, it
seems like the tables are increasingly gettingtough, and certainly the lineup towards the
end of the day was a lottougher for then earlier. And I think
that's kind of the nature of themain event too, because the weaker players,
you know, slowly get chipped awayat and maybe make mistakes, especially
(14:09):
as the pressure comes on. Soyou obviously have a lot of experienced playing
poker, You've been on the bigstage many times, but probably nothing like
this. Do you feel it does? Is it exciting? How do you
stay grounded? What's going through yourmind? Actually feel surprisingly kind of just
like in the zone and focus.I think you know that they talked about
(14:31):
going off the stream, and Iwas like, I kind of feel good
on the stream like it. Itkind of puts like a little bit of
pressure on, but I like it, and I yeah, I think I
just feel kind of comfortable up here. Now. It seemed like you were
picking up a lot of hands todayto play. I mean that must feel
good, right, you're basics ofthe main's getting playable hands. It's crazy.
(14:52):
I ran in here and then rightaway it was like stressful spots and
then I'm never really you know,I haven't got a read on anybody,
so I'm like, what is happeninghere? You know, you feel like
are they three vetting me light?Or they do they just have it?
You know what is happening. Sothere was some tough spots right away,
a lot of hands. I meanthat was fun. I was saying earlier.
I'm like, wow, I haven'tgot aces or kings this whull tournament.
(15:13):
And then it feels like they allcame today. So when you get
to this point in the tournament,you know there's sixty players left, first
place, ten million, you're reallyyou know, you're deep in it.
Do you set like kind of anend goal or is it just like one
hand at a time, take itas it comes. I just keep telling
myself, like ten hours of poker, you know, we're pretty deep.
I know what to do all thespots that come up. You know,
(15:37):
I've played many times, so that'swhat I'm reminding myself. All right.
That was Kristen Fox and again fourteenpoint five million. You know, she
was up on the feature table allday. Yeah, it was a long
time. Yeah, I would throwa fit well, but she also said
things I kind of liked. Shekind of liked it. Yeah. I
(16:00):
think it's much a momentum and confidencething more than I mean, if you're
if you're winning, I'm assuming you'regonna be like, yeah, keep me
here. If you're losing, you'reprobably gonna be like, hey, guys,
hello, let's go, let's switchit up. You know, I
understand how that is. I thinkshe understands the games, of course.
I mean I thought there was alot of fun action at all the tables,
(16:21):
to be honest. So we're gettingto that point where you know,
obviously everything is condensing down towards thefinal table, and I mean we're we're
in it. You know, theseplayers are all in it, like you
know, it's it's the real fingdeal now, and you can certainly feel
that the rails are starting to build. The tension is in the air is
certainly getting thicker and thicker. Itseems like by the level, what else
(16:49):
you got for stories I got?I mean Brian I think Briana Rass is
in there, okay hundred. He'sbasically, you know, for those playing
at Lunganham, the yeah, theAldi version of Tom Dwan, the what
you know, the Aldi supermarket,like the kind of cheaper knockoff version of
(17:11):
the what version of what is Australia. It was trying to make some kind
of like pun on Tom Dwan beingyou know, Tom Dwan was the online
guy, and I'm saying, likeLeana nine hundred, first of all,
they're entirely different. I know itdidn't work obviously, it's this is a
horrific Tom Dwan was cash cames Leananine hundreds tournaments. Yeah, I was
(17:37):
just trying to look it didn't comeup. I didn't have enough time to
prepare the joke. I mean,Leana nine hundred is like the Michael Jordan
of online poker tournaments. Who isChris Mormon? Chris Mormon? No no
shot, who's had who spent moretime number one. You ran the fucking
website. Who's spent more time numberone on Pocket five's lifetime. Chris Mormon
(17:59):
is more like, it's Chris Morman. Chris Mormon is more Kobe Bryant than
Leana nine hundred is Michael Jordan.That's what it is. Volume shooter Kobe
Bryant versus best tournament player online ever, Lean Knight hundred. I don't know,
man, but shut okay, let'smove on. What do you mean,
(18:23):
let's move on. Chris Mormon's avolume player online. Man, Okay,
I'm just saying, Lean Night Hundsis the goat. That's what That's
what. That's what it is.That's what it is. Anyway, Mormon
playing Trading's true, that's singular.I think he's plaited a trading. Yeah,
yeah, just just you know,online crusher, crushing this main event.
(18:45):
You know, I think we alwayswe used to have that back in
the day, right, you know, the earlier years, and now maybe
it's coming full circle. I stillthink that his name is a little more
unknown than it probably should be,especially Milena. Yeah, especially, yeah,
for sure. I Mean I feltlike I felt like watching the coverage
(19:07):
they had to keep explaining it,at least the early portion, you know.
I mean, the guy is absolutelyincredible at poker, right, He's
one of the absolute best ever whenit comes to tournament poker, and now
he's on the big stage for everyoneto see it. Played some really good
hands today from what I saw,so yeah, it was it was fun.
(19:27):
And now he's bringing fifteen point eightmillion into day seven. I think
Brian Rass is another one. Imean I kind of felt like in a
way, Brian Rass was kind ofjust hanging around for a much much of
the day, but then he uhkind of surged like I don't know,
(19:48):
second half of the day or somethinglike that, ended up bagging twelve million,
six and seventy five thousand, soPoker Hall of Famer six time goal
brace the winner. I feel likeRass is going to make this final table.
I really do. Like, Ijust feel like it's just kind of
in the cards for him to makeit. So Arthur Morris was funny because
obviously we know him and he's youknow, he plays a PGT regular,
(20:10):
he's Poker Group podcast hat guy nowand all this sort of stuff. I
mean, you just couldn't kill theguy all day just couldn't kill. We
got to hit on Jesse Kaffs.That was my third one, probably the
most eccentric player left. I mean, he's just going to use the word
from cringe to cool, the phrasegreen from cringing ring cool. Is that
(20:32):
what happened? He went from cringingto cool. No, I mean,
I'm not sure if he's gotten tocool, but he's turning the corner.
I feel I feel like we needhim up there. We need we need
the ducks, we need to craziness. I mean, he's he's he's the
wacko. That's what he is.Like, he's the he's the crazy guy.
You know, he's got seventeen rubberducks on the table. I'm not
(20:52):
joking you guys. Watch the coverage. You'll see the rubber ducks. They're
all over the place. His wholerail is like they got duck stuffed animals.
One guy had a looked like aduck up blanket wrapped around him like,
I mean, it's just it's it'sduck city out there. Jesse's like
he's got that right, He's gotthese shades. He pulls this like I
don't know with this, like nextscarf thing like over his face when he
(21:15):
plays a hand. He's got crazybracelets on that are all different colors.
I mean he's like he's a characterfor sure. Yea. And we've known
Jesse. We used to he usedto work for Proker News, like and
he's he's always been a little bitwacky, like in a in a good
way. And he like he's thecharacter. Like you need, you need
a couple of things in every Wspmianevent. I think, right, you
(21:37):
need the heroes, you need thevillains, then you need the wackos.
Okay, like that's what you need. I remember, I mean not like
wacko, like crazy wackle like funwacko. You know, like John hess
a couple of years ago, hewas kind of like the wacko. You
know, he had the colorful jacket, the hat, like he was the
old guy battling with the younger guys, like you know that that type of
wacko. I think Jesse Kapps islike that type of person. And he's
(22:02):
in there, you know, he'she played some wild hands. Seemed like
he got lucky a few different times, especially on the turn. In some
spots he played that one hand earlierwhere like the guy didn't see that he
was all in, or the guydidn't see that he wasn't all in.
Dan see that he had one chipbehind. So the guy tabled his hand,
which was King Queen and the flopwas King, like King nine to
(22:22):
five or something whatever, and theguy had top pair, but Jesse had
tens and like Jesse saw his handbut then had the chip behind. So
it's like do I call? Imean, yes, you call because you're
you know, a ten to oneunderdog, but there was like two and
a half million out there. Youhad to call your last five kit chips,
so you just have to call.And then he drills a ten on
(22:45):
the turn. He got it allin. Later in the night with pocket
Jack's up against I think Ace Queenagainst Jao, and she flopped an Ace
but he turned to Jack, Sothere's that. So, I mean,
it was just it was a JesseKap show, right, He's certainly becoming
a character. M Jesse Strauss.What. No, we're not calling him
(23:07):
Jesse Strass. Okay, we're justchipping the chest storry. No, but
he was never down to a chipin a chair. He said he had
a five k left. Yeah,but he was in the hand like you
can't. You can't. He didn'ttechnically have a fight story about the tree
top. He had one like heplayed a hand, lost it and like
kept one chip under his napkin orwhatever. No, he went all in.
(23:30):
He like pushed all his chips andthink he was all in. He
got off to it because he thoughthe was busted. He went to clean
up his napkin. There's one chipleft. Yeah, I'm sure he like
went to clean up his napkin andthere was one chip left. Yeah,
I'm so sure that that happened.Put your tinfoil on that to that.
I've heard stories, man, whatdo you want me to say? But
Jesse was still in his hand,so like he still had equity in the
(23:52):
pot, you know, like ifhe would have folded that hand and was
left with one chip and a chair, then it's a different story. But
the duck live on and you spokewith him afterward. All right, let's
play that interview for you right now. I'm here with Jesse Kapps. You
just put five point nine million inthe in your bag. How are you
feeling right now? A feeling fantasticto be honest with you, like this
(24:14):
is this has been a dream ofmine since I was a kid, and
like unfathomable, like how are wehere? This is? This is so
cool man. Everyone's yeah, youjust mentioned you know, the quantastic everyone's
talking about the ducks. Come on, Phillis in what's the deal with it?
Looks like you've got fourteen ducks outhere right now on the table.
Well, what's what's going on withhim? Only one of the ducks was
I brought to the table. Everybodyelse gifted me ducks. So as more
(24:37):
and more fans come, they likestart adorning me with ducks. So all
these ducks you see are ducks thatwere given to me by friends. I
know you saw it a little bitof action in this event. We're not
even talk about how much. ButI'm just wondering, as I actually won
my CC for free as a charitytournament, so like, yeah, give
it, you know, sell ita little bit after your friend stuff,
But technically I'm indetermined for free evenbetter. So I want to know what
(25:00):
would currently guaranteed one hundred and sixtythousand dollars. What does that mean to
you to lock up such a bigpayday like that? Honestly, I've been
telling people this. It's not evenabout the money like when I was when
you knew me, when I waslike first starting out being like a reporter.
I just want to be a partof the action. I wanted to
be a poker ambassador. I tryto do that blog, you know,
make poker fun again, and likethe money's great. Who I honestly,
(25:23):
I care about the money, butI don't care about the money, if
you know what I mean. Likeit's all about the numbers, Like it's
all about the excitement of the likeoh the pay jobs and stuff, but
they're all just numbers to me.I mean all four bet rip king nine
offsue if it feels right just tojust because it's what I feel, you
know, Yeah, I don't care. It's not really about the money.
It's just about you know, youknow, am I playing the best hands?
(25:47):
And is it fun? Final questionfor me? You got a big,
big rio here brewing. How bigis it going to get if you
make this final table? I mean, I live here, so I guess
I have a home field advantage.But I mean people from like all walks
of my life, and I aminvolved in a lot of different things.
My friends over there are like ravers, I have like childhood friends, just
(26:10):
friends from different areas of life.They aren't even pokers. So probably you'll
see one of the bigger rails thatyou've seen in a long time. Listen,
he's gonna be one of those guys. I already know. You're gonna
watch the coverage. Really gonna lovehim. You're gonna hate him one hundred
percent. Like there's no there's notreally gonna be any sort of in between,
but entertainment value. I think he'sdelivering. He's bringing it. He
(26:30):
plays kind of unorthodox. I've playedwith him before. I think last year
in the main event, he showedup on My Day one or yeah,
my Day one day with fucking sevenducks, Like and I know Jesse and
like you know, he's just he'strying to talk to you and like he's
being whacky and whatever, and he'sjust like, Jesse, shut up,
like I mean, like you know, just like just do what you're doing.
(26:51):
Brian Kim making another run. Yeah, Oh, we gotta talk about
this hand with Luis Vasquez and Sammybesha Head aka a Dealer. You saw
it straight flush versus full House.I believe the flop was Jack Jack ten
with two spades, turn seven ofspades. The river was whatever. I
(27:14):
think they got the money huh queen, Yeah, I think the river was
a queen. They got the moneyin on the river and besha Head had
jack seven so flop trips turned thefull house. Luis Vasquez had eight nine
of spades, turned a straight flush. I mean this happened with seventy players,
seventy seventy or seventy six players leftin the wspmin event. I mean,
(27:34):
what in the universe is happening?So there was that besha Head was
left with like five hundred K orso, so you know, very short.
I think the big line at thetime was one hundred and twenty K,
and he ends up busting from there. I mean, I mean,
what are you gonna do? Imean, that's just a brutal cooler for
(27:55):
him, trying to find out whereexactly he went out seventy fourth place for
one hundred and twenty k. So, you know, good run for Sammy
ultimately not what he wanted in theend, but the ultimate cooler. Just
some other players that busted out today. I know, we lost Reren Lynn
at one point, Jesse, welost no Jesse Lows we lost yesterday.
(28:15):
Actually he didn't make it through.We have to correct ourselves in that he
was not the DNR he did busyesterday at some point. How many players
do they come back with today,one sixty or something like that. Yes,
we lost Christopher Bramer. Today,we lost Leonard Mao. Today,
we lost Tony Dunst. Today,we lost Jake Farrow. Today we lost
(28:37):
Alex Ponokaws. We lost Joe Tahan. We lost Daniel Anderson aka d moon,
Casey Stewart today, Troy Quinnville.Today I mentioned Sammy beshahead boo ding,
Nick Howard, uh poker coach MarkWolpert, shout out Mark Wolpert.
Second place and the seniors have beenfor four and fifty. He's gonna add
(29:00):
another one hundred and forty thousand dollarsscore to his record. Here he bows
out in sixty fifth place. Welost Danny Tang today. He got it
all in good ace ten of clubsversus ACE seven versus jiao. She flopped
a seven, he flopped a flushdraw, he turned a broadway draw,
and he couldn't hit on the river. So we lose him as well.
(29:22):
And then I think on the finalhand of the day. Today we lost.
Carlos called us in sixtieth place.That brings us down to fifty nine
players again, all guaranteed one hundredand sixty thousand dollars. I guess we
got a draft. Do you wantanother chop value for us? Yeah?
Yeah, fuck yeah, I'm playingchop value seven hundred and ninety one thousand,
(29:42):
seven hundred and twenty two. Yeah, we got a draft. Let's
go through yesterday's lineup. You hadStevensong winning for twenty five K Fantasy Yeah,
and Christino anymore. Brian cam Nicholasasked that they are all still in.
You have people that bat at JesseHonest, Fred Land, Tony Don's,
Dannielle Anderson, Joe t Han.I also Jesse Lowns was never in.
(30:07):
Well you did drafting though, Iknow, but that was our mistake.
We thought he'd be the DNR,but he wasn't. I also had
Chrissy Fox, and Nicholas asked thaton my team, I have Chrissy Winning.
I also have Arthur Morris, Brianrass Do Yogo Coela. They're all
silly in My players eliminated Red landMark Walpa, Carlos Kaltis who you just
mentioned in Sammy the Dela. Soit's time to draft. I'm in the
(30:33):
mood to have nine absolute killers,Okay, at the final table. That's
what I'm in the mood for.So I'm gonna start with Kristin Foxen,
got it. I'm gonna add leanin nine hundred AKA Nicholas Astet, Brian
Rast's put him in there, BrianKim, Let's put him in there.
(30:59):
Let's put but Orson Young in there, Stevens Song. I've been taking anyone
in the top seven chip counts,by the way, for what it's with.
What do you want me to do? I don't. Let's go Jegor
Morose. Put him in for theRyo. I mean the rails a bonus.
(31:19):
He's been seems like he's been playingsuper well. Okay, we're drafting
like the final title we want,so I think that's part of it.
I think that's the bonus. That'swhy I just want. I want you.
I want whoever the best nine playersare in this tournament field. I
want them to make it. Okay, I don't know if these people are
the best. I'm trying to pickplayers that I know are probably really good
(31:40):
players, but I don't know.I just I just want absolute crushers.
How many? How many have Ipicked? You have? I know?
I said I gotta pick absolute crushers, but I gotta throw Jesse KapS just
just because, just because, right, and then let's throw in uh,

we're going to close it off withSpain's undressed Gonzales because Spanish is going to
(33:38):

He made the ten k WSP onlinefinal table, so there was a
chance that he could be at thefinal table of this and the final table
of that. Good problem to bein in my opinion. I mean,
(41:28):
yeah, I guess so, LikeI said, one level of registration lifting
that the three K mid Sakes Championship. There is also a level of registration
in that on Saturday morning, soI got to give a shout out yep,

six Max Championship. He also baggedthree hundred and forty thousand in the three
K four that's the tenth highest,tenth biggest stack on one B So looking
