All right, everyone, it is time. No real special intro, no music, nothing like that. We're just gonna get right into it. Just arrive. The WSOP main event bubble is about to happen in the other room. That's where I'm headed. Let's go. So you've been touted as a man that plays for the win, but today seven big Linds five away from the money. They give no funds whatever I've like just I've had Queen deuce nine for every time I look at it, nothing across. I pray that
it's an ace. I look at a face card and a nothing across, and it's a It's been at deuce every time. So no, I'm not I'm not folding anything. When we talk about WSB stats, you know, I like WSB stats. You've got eleven million event cashes including Europe, apac online, all of that. Do you hold extra value for cashing in the main event or is this something that is just like another event on the schedule. Cashing is weak sauce, you know. I mean, I've cashed plenty.
That's not what I really want to do. I don't need the fifteen thousand, so I'm gonna play most. I'm basically gonna play like CHIPPYV not icm poker. I'm gonna play like if I get a hand like see the thing is your ship leaders opening. I don't have any full equity when they do, so I can't just play like two randoms, right, I have to have something that's, you know, gonna be a favorite to get in.
But I'm looking to get it in. I'm not. I'm like, I wouldn't have any shame in bubbling this thing even though we're so close. Final question, what are your thoughts on the payoffs? They made them a little less top heavy this year. I like them. I think they look cleain. What are your thoughts so of all the things in tournament poker? Like I care about structures, I care about a whole bunch of things. Payouts is just something I give little thought to. I just don't care that
much. Whatever the masses want, I'm more than happy. You know, pay a lot of spots flattened out. To me, it makes no difference. But no matter what you create, people are gonna be upset. They always are, because this is like the nature of being a pro poker player. Just complain no matter what they do. They did all the things that the ad people ask for flattened it out, and bah bah bah they're still complaining. You know. All right, thank you, good luck. Have
you run that seven big mines up? It's not seven anymore, but yeah, oh no, it's six and a half. Good luck to you. All right, all players and dealers. This is how we're going to handle this process. Once you have an all in and a call at your table, I need you guys to keep your hands face down until we come over and prompt you. Like Jack said before, we will be coming over.
I'm gonna need some help with the players around those tables, and I'm gonna need some help from the media to allow Jack and myself to get intil we can record history on these tables. Okay, So at this time we're gonna deal one hand and one hand only. Then we're gonna stop. Dealers are gonna need you guys to stand up. Players, Please remain in your seats so we can walk around and find how many hands are a processed so we can make sure that we get through this in a timely fashion. All Right,
dealers, deal one hand and hold up. All right, I'm here with lawns. He's got one thousand and chips left three away from the money. You're in the cutoff, thought, I will be voting onto the big mine. Oh yeah, aces are good. Pull their face up. Your two table mates up there, Kevin and Amy says, is this guy gonna make it? And I said, I would bet my entire salary that you can make it. Seven hands that's a lot of hands. That's a lot of hands. There's a lot of tables and a lot of hands, so
hopefully I can make it. You start the day with forty one thousand, now have one thousand? What can you tell us? Philistin? Though, What's what's happened this first thirty minutes of play? The best saying I've seen was ACE four heart. So I thought about pushing, but it didn't really make sense. So, job, how many main events have you played cash before? No made at the end of day two last time? So do you think this cash means more to you than the actual like the money?
Or is it bast sighting I've cashed the main event? It's boss saying I cashed the hand for hand play has commenced eighty minutes on the clock. Clocks paused. Of course, guys coming, I gotta get it fifteen hundred twenty players remained fifteen seventeen paid. Sounds like they got two all in and calls going down right now. I just saw Jack Affel, Charlie Sarraci getting in there. There was a massive amount of people around table five point thirty seven
in the orange section, cameras everywhere. Of course, you know, players are supposed to stay in their seats, but they're not. How can you blame them? Really? One of the players I was over there for a second was Julian bognandov Or bogged it off, probably butchered that. But and the best man in set of eights versus a flush shraw. It sounds like no flush shaw. Yet I'm still looking for a club that doesn't pay the board double up the first hand of two on the first hand of hand for
hand play. And now the giant mass of people, media, tournament directors, probably some spectators snuck in here, players of course stampeding on over to five forty one. Also in the orange section, just just a couple of tables over per Jack Apple's announcement, only two all in hands on this hand of hand fan play firsthand. Let's see if we can hear what's going down. This is pre flop ace King off versus Kings. Kings are in the lead, but kings are the shorter stack, so in ace or Broadway,
maybe a flush could knock him out. So the ace king has made Broadway here, all right, Ace King cracks Kings. We have one elimination on the first hand of hand for ham play, so one player's out. Clock's gonna go down to fifteen nineteen, two players off the money. All right, Jesse Lonis are on the bubble the WSB main event. You just take them to the streets. What are you doing? Yeah? I woke up
today and anytime I buy a new hoodie, I play really aggressive. And I was telling my cousin that and a ride down that I'm probably gonna either be out or have a lot of chips because I bought a new hoodie. So that's my randomizer, and it worked out. New hoodie worked out, So I'm glad that I'm glad that I got the hoodie. Obviously, clearly you're in accumulation mode here on the bubble. Do you want the bubble to
last as long as possible? Yeah? Of course. Now before I was like whatever didn't matter, But now it's going good, and I think I could win more of the hands than not. So yeah, right now I would like to keep going for a few more hands for sure. How you feeling overall about where you're at your positioning? You've basically doubled your stack without really having to do much. Yeah, well I had to do a lot. Well, I mean like you didn't get it all in, you know,
you shoved but didn't get calm. Yes, I feel great obviously, Day four the main event, the best tournament of the year, and you know, I just want to go deep in. This is the tournament. So yeah, feel good. Secondhand of hand for hand play here four all in and calls four. They are two off the money. Fifteen nineteen players were in fifteen hundred and seventeen are pain so could burst the bubble here, headed over to the sorry headed over to the blue section of the room.
Table four sixteen, position, five and seven seed are all in. The five seed has the seven seed cover you know, yeah, just five tries to get a neil in my feet too. I feel so they infused it the launge right there and I'm like, he's still in. Yeah, I'm just pissed right now because let me read the boards. You guys, three o'clock on the board, you both seven at risk. Looks like we have a set of jacks and we have a diamond flush. The diamond flush has
the best hand. The diamond flush will double up nomination firsthand of the four. Now we're going to the diamond flush versus a set of jacks, and the diamond flush was the short stack, so they doubled up. Heading over to four hundred and ninety nine, table four ninety nine in red kind of hot. It's always a madhouse. You know, they should really space these tables out a little bit in here, just with how wild it is. Okay, let's let four and risk. You're getting position here? Were in
all right, they're situating themselves at the table right now. I mean there's like seventy people surrounding one poker table in an already pretty crowded room where you know, you have three four feet between every single table. It's chaos in here, but it's beautiful against nine o'clock aces versus King nine. Off the aces are all in, guessing they're pretty short and the King nine called or
that maybe the King nine put the person all in. But yeah, six of harms nine six three, So the king nine does have a pair of nines, six of gloves. The board with six pairs of the board on the turn needs a nine on the river to bust one player. I'd see the river where the four hearts. Neither player has a heart four on the rivers will up HeSE is gonna double up. So the first two hands of this hand for hand play, the second hand of hand play, there's four
hands, two double ups, two more to go. I'm not sure where the group is headed down here we go sid so if they don't bust a player on this hand, hand for hand play will continue. Are you eight cup six the ball half? Please hate six three? Queen? I believe is going to three sets up? All right, guy, I got it in with a set of sixes doubled up against his opponent who had just a pair of eights. So three hands down, all have been double ups.
There is one more hand to go again, still looking for two eliminations to get us into the money here twenty twenty four dosy main events, but so far no one has been willing to bust. It's hard to kill people in tournaments, man, especially on the bubble, were Q Yeah, clubs shut the clubs. Clubs say hands, you got five and we have the trees or the player with all right, the rubber party they see in a double
one four irons to the tree. Noa ano, they're double up. Don't really know what happened on that hand, but all four hands that were all in calls during the second hand of hand for hand play resulted in double ups for the shorter stack. So still fifteen hundred and nineteen players remaining, and things continue to off. The money in the twenty twenty fours be made. Event now they're all on a call. Here the third hand of hand for hand play. The group has made its way over to table four, p.
Thirteen in the blue section. This might be the only all in and call on this hand, which would mean that the bubble won't burnt just on this hand. But of course we'll see, we'll see how things go. I know that Daniel and Grandy's over in that corner. I wonder if it's him. He was pretty short coming into the day. Sub ten big lines. We've got it all on a call between seed one, seed nine nine is at leris here we go? We've got parricanes were they all on player.
We've got par oasis for the player who has the cover. Okay, okay, Kings kings versus as kings are the short stack on the can or something else. Oaces hold up here, tres phase jack the diamonds, deuces fades. Two aces are good. Let's see the fur card jack to reduced aces still in front? Have you, Queen of spades on the turn? All right, two aces are still good. Let's see the river car burber
induces. We have an elimination. All right, one bust out there, Kings lose out two aces, so that brings the field down to fifteen hundred and eighteen players. Now one off the money. Of course, listen, players, please, it's the worst kept secret that the player that quote unquote bubbles the main events always gets a seat to next year's event. Right, So they never announced it though, so you never fully know that it's happening.
But they generally award the bubble boy or bubble girls with a seat to next year's event. So we'll see if people get a little crazy on this hand, possibly thinking that that is also in play, so it can be on a little bit of a free roll. Paul, you should have been in your seats. We're gonna do this again. Alright, Gaylor shot hold the middle one hand. All right, we are now on the fourth hand of hand for hand play. Let's see if we burst the bubble. Still
got one thousand. He's now has three hands for the tournament to lose one play. Will he make it? I said I'd bet my salary on it, so I really hope he does because I'll feel like awful. But media now got some attention on him. He's had photos, he showed he's one K chip. Let's hope he makes it. Okay, I'm guessing this is when it's gonna break because one player away from the money. Fifteen and eighteen remained fifteen seventeen pay. There are six all in in calls. Six it
is the fourth hand of hand for hand play. Six all on in calls. I know Jesse Lonis is involved in one of them, cause I was standing at that table Jesse Lonis, who got a little crazy earlier as you as you heard, I know on Jesse Lonis's hand that small line raised Lonis three vet from the big blind. The guy jammed for I think three maybe four hundred thousand loonus tanked for a little bit and then ultimately called it off. Don't know the hands yet. They went to the other side of the
room, so we'll see how things go again. It sounds like six all in and calls on the fourth hand of hand for amplay. Here's the first one. Okay, another aces versus King's confrontation. Here Kings once again are at risk us not be a club. All right, it's down to one out on the river, all right. One. So the elimination happened on the first of six all in hands. So the field is guaranteed to be in the money. Now it's just a matter of what's gonna happen from here.
There are still five all in calls. Oh, it sounds like Odib's all in, ODB, friend of the pot, David Baker all in for. They just said three hundred and forty thousand ace queen for ODB, ace five for his opponent. ODB is still best on the flop players hitting in an ace. He just needs to fade a five on the river. They will full up, all right, and David Baker doubles up. I'm moving
on to the third all in hand. That was the second. Remember the first one was a bust out, so they are guaranteed to be in the money. Let me see if I can go over there and chat with mister ODB, who is all in. It was all in, all right, we've got it one, two and see seven is a life. But there there there polleys over here. So we're riding position. I got you. I gotta give us a second position. Are technically he's closed to turn over in his hand. I don't. I don't want that to be your hand.
So we push that man over for young it's are you can turn over? Yes? Please, thank you? All right, there you are, and now there's so much to knock over here in front of now they're all on a call here third hand of hand for hand, but our third hand, it's this hand for thought for the divings and see twos that runs for his turner life. Let's see the plas eighty six, eight, three eights over here, and it looks like least a miracle comes here, and we
have elimination lay Burn card clubs. All right, let's say the river garden, all right, three, it's going to do that hand. And we're another elimination here in September two, so we have another elimination here, So three another, babe, we're going through four. Three of the six hands have been played. Three again. This is the fourth hand of hand for hand play. Two element nations have happened. We played four hands. We've had two eliminations. All right, so we got sorry four hands. Haven't
played two eliminations at risk. It's all right, all right, take hands eighteen versus aces. Alright, s four a risk, but you've got the best hand. Let's take a look at the ball. Six of hard, four diamonds, nine of spades. Two aces are good. Let's to the German aces again. Aces are always all in? Aces will no alright, aces doubled up on that hand. So again, still two eliminations here. It's t warm. Sounds like there is one more hand left. We've had
two eliminations so far. This is the last hand. All right, we got it. It's like C three and C eight and uh C three or eight is all my first turn alive. It looks like all right, let's take a let's get a position, all right, listen for revealing hands flee. All right, we've got a pot of queens for is at risk. Let's take a look ace queen versus queen's ace. Queen is at risk in this hand the queen the sphase over here versus greena diamonds greena glove and it's
final hard spial gloves. Do BLUs, dude makes you're good for your turn card. Now we have an as on the turn right now it's the peasant hand as five a double ace. Queen hit an ace on the turn here, so looking like a double up unless a queen comes in. Nope, so that's going to be a double up there he doubles up. We don't want more, Charlie, Are you sure we don't have anything? One more? Okay, let's do one more? All right, wonder little more?
All in a call eliminations walk fine, there were six total. Two eliminations have happened. This one that they're going to now, that's the one with Jesse Loons. See what they have? All right? All right? One? Two? Let's rise reveal here pond kings for two C one has pocket king C two. That's Jesse Lonis. He's got ace Queen mark. So then that year was England scoring. Not anything to do with the bubble, England playing in the Netherlands in the Euros. The recard woman, who's up?
All right? So the Kings double through Jesse Lonis. We have players and we have a whole players all over and congratulations. All right, you guys. They're going to split. They're going to slip last place, draw my card year, how about that one? Actually? All right, there we go. So the two players chop the first payout, so fifteen k they chop it. They get seventy five hundred each. Now they're going to high Card to see who wins the seat for next year's WSP main event.
You got a minute? Well what was that? Positive? Well? What are you four big blinds as queen? What are you doing? I had three hundred and fifty thousand? What is that like forty something? I mean, sometimes you just got to call it off, you know. I learned from Donny p hold it off. I called it off. So and you were right, and I was right. You know. I listened to the Poker podcast and my good friend Donnie Peters told me sometimes you just got to
go with your read and if you lose, you just accept that. And so I went with my read. I love it, and you hell, and now you got what almost eight hundred? I have like seven hundred. If you want to hear the hand, let's go. So I got a high roller from Europe in the big line. I did a little research though he played some high rollers. He has like seven hundred thousand. I know he's going to be pretty aggressive and apply some pressure on the on the bubble.
So I decided at ak B line that I wanted to over raise if I had a hand on the button, because A I don't want him to appeal, and then I have to play post flop and maybe it'll induce him
to do something spazzy. So I picked up the Ace Queen of Clubs on the button, which is a huge hand on the button, and so I opened for twenty five k, which is like three point something blinds, and he asked how many chips I had, And I'm pretty sure he thinks like I did that because I'm scared the bubble and I'm never gonna call off. And he just shipped, and I'm like, you know, if he's got a big hand here, it doesn't I don't really feel like he's shipping.
I was a little worried that he might have like a small pair or something, but I thought like he also had a lot of just aces in his hands, like just weak aces. So how you know I thought about it, and I'm like, you know, what if I had like fifty thousand, I probably fold, because like I had my chance of doing something in
the tournament by doubling ups and not that big. But if I double up three fifty to seven hundred, you know, with my experience navigating and such, I think I can, you know, I can make a run in this tournament. So because like, I'm just gonna I'm just gonna do it. And I did after like a minute or two of me telling him I'm probably gonna call, but I just need to think this through because you know, I don't want some stupent And I called and he had the ace five
off and I helped, and who I got some chippies. Now, baby, play to win. That's that's the lesson here. Play to win, all right? Good luck? All right, guys, It is one time here the roses in court. Once you unfortunately get eliminated, I need your repay in your seats until hey out runner County get you. Once you get into our pre payout program, you guys would go where your work, pick up your money. Told your last out of team. But it's very important.
Once you get to this, they subscribe that you remain in your seats until we grab you. Okay, four or eight thousand, Good luck, everybody. Dealers play shut up a Nail. Jenny Express
