Hello everyone, Welcome back to a new episode of the Poker Go Podcast. My name is Donnie Peters. His name is Tim Duckworth. Big show today, Big big, big show. Big Show's it big? It's big? Okay. You want to know why some might say it's a record breaking show? Is it is? Because the twenty twenty three World Series of Poker Main Event is now the largest World Series of Poker Main event ever in the history of the game. This year's WSP Main Event is the richest poker tournament to

be held. We'll get into kind of the nitty gritty of the numbers. We don't have official numbers just yet, but we can talk a little little bit about how things are progressing. Today was day one d Phil Helmyth arrived and boy was it in arrival. Tim is Tim is the biggest Phil Hummuth fan. I think he has like one of those big heads like on his wall of Phil Hummyth and Tim is shaking his head. Um Helmuth kept eating

at the feature table. We have a coffee bed update. We gotta talk about the World Cup of Vegas because Tim decided to skip half a day of work to go play on a country that he's not even part of look I hold a green cod I'm I'm I have the right to represent the USA.

Day one A of the SPMN event was held a couple days ago, had about one thousand and fifty players. Will say Day one b about eleven hundred, eleven and twenty in that region Day one C that was yesterday's flight, the biggest of them all so far leading into today, got up over three thousand entries, was what we've been told today. I forget if it was. I

think it was level one of today, but it's WOP. Officials in the middle of the room got on the mic and announced that the record held by the two thousand and six Debbies to be main event, the seventeen year old record a long time is no more. It is no more. Not only had they surpassed the eight thousand, seven hundred seventy three entries from the two thousand and six Debbies from an event, of course, that is the Man

event that Jamie Gold won for twelve million dollars. They sent out a press release shortly thereafter announcing the new record and also mentioning that they had sword past nine thousand entries. So as far as I'm concerned, all signs point to ten thousand plus. If you're asking me, Donnie Peters, I think eleven thousand is in play. Jeez, that's how big. It's absolutely wild,

absolutely wild. We talked about it last night, how we thought that they were close to the record last night, even before day one d got started. We still have multiple hours of registration left open because you can register until level eight all to day once played five levels, so that means through two levels and up until the start of that third level on day two, which will be approximately like four or four thirty something like that is when registration is

going to close. And there are two day twos. So we're recording this on Friday, July seventh, at about one twenty in the morning on July seventh, on this Friday, that is day two eight BC's so up until level eight today people can register, and then up until again level eight tomorrow people can register. So do you think this number is gonna get massive real quick? As it's already massive, but now it's only going to get even

crazier. Do you think the end of registration will be better served for the end of dinner break? Like two more hours plus the dinner break We're talking like four hours. It keeps people a bigger window of time they're traveling if they're flying in from like New York, Boston, whatever. I mean, Yeah, but they don't you then have to adjust the dinner break or are you kicking registration one one more level? Saying take it one more level plus

the dinner break. Yeah, I mean they might. They might do that in the future, Like you're not gonna get a lot, but maybe now you INCENTI by someone that wakes up, they see the news, you know, they're like, oh, I can't miss this, and it gives them an extra four you know, three or four hours so you get into the main event. Yeah, I mean it might. It might help a little bit. I would. I would say that that's probably like being had in

the conversation. Right. I think the WSP deserves a ton of credit for this number. Um, I think this maniment was marketed pretty well coming in. You know, they from everything that we can tell, the goal was to beat the record and they are shattering it. So you know, kudos to them for knocking this one out of a park. Also, listen, nine handed play today. I'm confirmed. No, so ten hand a table set, I know, But I walked around the field. I did not.

I was here before you. You were still playing soccer and I did not see ten hand to play at all. So let's go. Well, but they had you know, there was no there's only notes going on today other than stuff later on in the day, right, So well, just mega satellites later on the day. I mean, so, you know, kudos and then forgetting all that that done. Um, I think overall, I mean I'm already like, what the hell is next year going to be twelve thousand. I mean, it's just it's out of control. This this

tournament is just it's it's like nothing else, it really is. It's absolutely incredible. So we know the number is over nine thousand, we think it's gonna get over ten thousand. Probably think that it's already there, you know, we're not. We're not. We don't have the confirmed numbers yet. But um, and you know, if if the field sizes trend what they usually trend in the years, then today was you know, probably five thousand, right, and if they had fifty two hundred coming in, then they're

over. Last year they had about one hundred and fifty entries on the first day, two late entries. Then they had five hundred late entries on the second day two. So if you figure if those keep up the same sort of trend, you're looking at another seven eight, nine hundred, maybe a thousand entries for the late late entries. That's going to push this thing over eleven thousand, I feel like, I mean, what in the world. I mean, yeah, tomorrow when we wake up, we'll probably have a

better idea of exactly what they had today. I mean, it's just it's why I kind of figure out from the eleventh And if you if you're listening to this and you're and you're within it, you're within a day's travel, you can still get here because you can tomorrow's day two, the first day two Day two ABC, Day two D there's gonna be still be registration kid

from Australia. So exactly, no matter where you are, Yeah, get on a plane, you know, find me some money and put some money together, find the ten k searching your your couch for you know, coins, and do whatever you gotta do. Sell potfolio. This is not financial bust. Please do not listen. Maybe maybe maybe pawn you know, your your gold watch or something, I don't know, like make it happen. Get out here in blast because this thing's incredible cash advance. I will say

that. Also, please, with the with the record being broken, that means the us appe's promotion of Main Event for Life quote unquote Main Event for Life is in full effect. So one player that registers for this year's World Series of Poker Main Event will be drawn at random, and that player will win a free roll a comped entry to the WSP main event every year for thirty years. Yeah, I mean that's a freaking promotion. I want to win that. I mean, that's amazing. All right, let's get into

what happened here on day one. D chip Leader looks like it's Nicholas Rigby, Dirty Diaper himself, the guy out of Pennsylvania who made huge waves. Was it two years ago? I think it was two years ago, right, because he was playing the three duce off suit suited like like an absolute animal out there. He is chip leading. How many times do you think he played the three ducee today? Probably six? Yeah, I mean, I mean, I don't know if he'd get dealt at thirty nine times,

but yeah, he was for sure, and he does well. Maybe Brittany Stout had a very very good day thirty seven, three hundred and seventy five thousand, five hundred, excuse me, Neil Murphy three hundred and twenty three thousand, Chris Unican, Big Huni three hundred and twenty one thousand. He had some other notables moving on, Men Win Men the Master, Phil, Ivy Chance, Corneth, John Juwanda, Victor Blom, Victor islder One Blom, Wren Lynn Defending champions of this event, Chris Moneymaker, Joe Hasham,

Phil Hellmuth, Keene Win and Scottie Win All Moving on. Hellmuth, we can talk about him for a minute. He played on the feature table Horseshoe Feature Table after his trademark Wild entrance this year. He was the greatest showman that was from a movie, from a movie played by Hugh Jackman, and he was pulling a cage, a lion's cage, a real lion. It wasn't a rely. Okay, he was pulling a lion, but there was

something in there that was acting like a lion. And that's something was Dan Jungleman Case, who was dressed up like a lion in this cage as Helmuth pulled the cage. Also in this extravaganza was seventeen models, all carrying numbers one through seventeen, obviously because Phil just won his seventeenth World Series of Poker Gold Bracelet dress Lioness. I don't I don't know. I didn't pay attention that closely. I paid attention to Helmuth, who had a little nips going

on with this costume. Oh god. So they march all the way into the horseshoe by the backside or the front, I don't know which you would really call it of the horseshoe stage. Helmy, this gives a little bit of the speech. Jungle Man gets out of the cage, does a bunch of roars. It's this whole thing. It's he It was. It was special. It was very special. A bunch of roles. Yeah, it was. He was. He's a lion. Is his own video? Helmy says, welcome to the Jungle. Yeah, there's videos out there. We

played the video on the live stream. I'm assuming the video has hit social media. This is something else man. Was this some guns and roses playing as well? No, it's just welcome to the Jungle. Nah, very very interesting. Helmy then proceeds to go, you know, he goes changes back into his normal off. It comes up onto the feature table. So he's on stream. We had him on stream all day, all six hours

that we were streaming today. If you do, if you miss the stream and you want to go back and watch, you you can find it on the poke Rio YouTube channel. Remco Rinking and myself were joined by twenty twenty one him and Champion I held him here, which was a lot of fun, a lot of good insight. Put from right, it's impressive, that's right. We had to put up with him. What are you talking about? Helmuth comes to the table with like a plate of food that is like

a barbecue dish. It's got like some barbecue meats, some like some other looked like a couple of sides whatever. He immediately starts chowing out on that. So that was Phil Helmyth meal number one. Then he plays this pot against a Brazilian player at his table. Helmuth flops a set against an overpair of queens, ends up making a full house in the river, gets paid a huge amount. Because it was a multi way pot. He essentially doubled

his stack. He got up to like one hundred twenty five K if you get the exact number, but you start with sixty K, so so yes, and then that's where Helmyth basically stayed for most of the day. I would say probably ninety five percent of the day that he played. Helmyth was between one hundred and twenty and one hundred and thirty thousand and chips, so extremely healthy. Um. As the day went on, he comes back from dinner break. I don't believe he ate on dinner break, because he mentioned

at the table like eating before dinner break, not eating on dinner. But then he comes back after dinner break with two of those little like portable containers of sushi. He's got two of those. So then then no, I don't know where those are fumbles look like the ones you just get off, like the racket, like a place. I have no idea. So he's got those. Then later on he's got a personal pizza from Geordano's. He's got that. So so he also had a package of I think nutter butters,

like those cookie wafer things. He had a Gatorade four thousand calories. Yeah, I mean he talked about how he talked on stream about how people don't understand how many calories poker players burn in a day, especially him, because he pays attention to everything. Him, out of everyone else, he burns the most calories. Phil Hammith, I mean, listen, I mean,

I don't know what to say. Playing poker like it does burn a lot of calories because you do have to I mean, if you're focusing a lot and all that sort of stuff, I get it, um but yeah, but does it really or does it just burn mental energy? Because mental energy exactly how many calories it burns? You know you're not because you just I yeah. Anyway, then the last the night is winding down. Philhelmi

still got on Dred twenty five k hasn't really been involved too much. He just he loses like three or four hands and it's just sent into orbit. Phil Helmy style just on rage tilts. So now he's tilting. He bagged around one hundred and six hundred and eight thousand, I think, which is still extremely healthy. Not where he was at his peak, but still extremely healthy. We got a bit of Helmuth tilt on the live stream, which

is always entertaining. We saw an absolutely outrageous fold of a guy folding pocket kings. Pre flop was Jason Curry. So this hand, this hand is out of control. You can either find it on the live stream kay on the potow YouTube channel or on poker gro Yes, or you can find it on Poker Growth social media you know you at poker Grow on Twitter and elsewhere. We posted the hand, but the hand went, they're playing three hundred,

five hundred. Curry makes it on the button thirteen hundred two black kings. Janello has eleven thousand, five hundred. He's in the small eleven thousand, eight hundred. As Tim said earlier, he's got two black eights. He goes all in. Okay. Now, Di Stefano is in the big blind with Ace of Heart's Queen of Clubs. So Ace queen off. Now I will point out that while Janello is all in for the eleven thousand, eight hundred, Curry started the hand with around seventy eight seventy nine thousand and

chips. D Stephano had a little over ninety two thousand in the big blind. So DeStefano does cover Curry. Okay, now do Stephano. You know he's figuring this out. He makes it a four bet to thirty thousand, okay, which is seas not done any wild. I mean, I think just calling here is plenty fine. I mean I think I think this is just a little bit too overaggressive here. I think if you do raise, you could like exactly men click it, like figure out the math twenty one

thousand or something whatever whatever it is. So I think you could do that. You know, I think it's ten thousand, five hundred more so, um you know twenty two thousand, three hundred or whatever, right, twenty thousand, two hundred h whatever. Anyway, um so do that? Um so anyway, he makes it thirty thousand now actions on curry and he goes into the tank. He's kind of like him and and Han back and forth. I thought this was a big Hollywood show. Huh. I thought he

was hollowooding hollywooding. What do you mean, Oh, like you thought that while you were watching the hand like and then he was gonna go all in? Yeah, yeah, well you know he didn't. He folded. Yeah, I mean I and then I had a hot attack while watching. I mean, I don't know what to say. I mean, that's just I mean, listen, obviously there's times when you run kings into aces. I fully get it, and it would suck to absolutely do it. But I wonder a couple of things. So one we saw kings to aces at this

table involving Helmuth and Di Stephano earlier. Now, Helmuth lost the stone. Minimum had to be the stone. He's the best. And also because de Stephano played it very cautiously his aces because in the texture of the board wasn't the greatest. Um, so I get it. That said, on the first hand of the day, there was a player that was eliminated with kings into aces, and it made its rounds on social media, and they talked about it at the at the feature table. Firsthand of today, firsthand on

the whole turn to day. Yeah, kings verse aces, Um, the kings got eliminated so well so wait sorry, firsthand of one d or firsthand on the stream one d age. So it made on the stream, it made, so it made its rounds on social media. People were talking about, they talked about at the feature table how it happened. Rather so I'm wondering if that was kind of in the back of Curry's mind thinking like, yeah, I'm gonna end up like this guy that said the situation here it's

button verse small blind, big blind. Okay, that's you know, one thing that's not the first end of the day. Yes, Also, like you had seen at least I would think you would have seen earlier if if you had people paying attention to the stream when there was a hand when Stephano put an opponent all in with just ace high on the river, so you know, he was playing aggressive and tending to lean a little bit looser than

you know, a lot of players would lean. I think that there's something to be said about the fact that, you know, you raise button. Janello, the Brazilian goes all in from the small blind. There's a fair amount of his jams that have an ace in them, which means that if that's the case, it's less likely that the big blind has two aces, you know. So I mean, listen, I'm not folding. There can't

you calling no all in? It' all in, it's all in. I can't speak for cry Aldemir, who was in the booth of us, but I believe you know, he wouldn't be folding either. I don't think rem Corinkoma said that he would be folding. Judging by the reactions on social media, I don't think a lot of people would be folding. So anyway, he folds does Curry puts the two kings in the muck and he admitted it

afterwards. And afterwards phil Helm he said that he respected the fold. He said, you know, even though you were wrong, I respect the full board runs out clean for the eights, so not only does Curry fold the Kings, but as a result, Janello is able to stay in the tournament. Because the Kings would have won, he would have knocked out Janello, he would have doubled up and then some you know, through Di Stefano.

So so yeah, but listen, I will say this, While I do think that that was a mistake to fold the two Kings there, I think afterwards Curry he didn't seem phased by it. He progressed on and he did he did all right, which you know, m might not be easy to do because you make a fold. You know, maybe you see some comments

on social media. You know, you have Phil Hommy. While he tells you that he respects the fold, you know, Phil Hommady is telling you that you were wrong, Like, you know, you see that you're wrong obviously because you see the hands that are tabled in front of you, like all this sort of stuff. So it would be easy to kind of fall off the rails in your day to go to shit after that. But Curry day didn't go to shit, okay, and he continued to play pretty well

from there. So I guess that's the silver lining in all this for Curry. But yeah, I'm just never folding two kings in that specific situation. I know it's the dubsman event. I know you only have one pair. I know that there's a pair that your opponent can have that's better than you, but I mean that spot, I'm just not doing it. So yeah, so that happened. As I said, you know, you can find

that on the poker or social media channels. I'm assuming Remco will get it up on our Facebook or sorry, on our Facebook, on our YouTube channel at some points because that was an absolute banger of a hand. Notable eliminations. Hassin ends on a former champion in this event twenty nineteen. He's gone, Brian Kenny's gone, Dan Kate's the Lion himself is gone, sent back

to the jungle. Kane Callis is out, Vanessa Kate is out, Dan Himler's out, Randall Emmet's out, Fully Promises out, and Stephen's Song is out. All those players that have been eliminating. As I mentioned earlier, Nicholas Rigby looks like he bagged up to the chip lead overall four hundred and eight thousand for Nicholas Rigby. So as long as you know, nothing was missed. And from the official reports, it looks like Nicholas Rigby is going

to be the overall chip leader. Finally someone has overtaken you. Heated to Haunt after he bagged up the Day one eight still would have been yeah exactly, So so yeah, so that's what we got to going forward. Um again, you know, we'll keep you updated as best we can on the numbers, but um, it's probably not going to be till Saturday evening, Saturday night. Saturday Night's episode going on Sunday is probably one will know the

official numbers. That's what I'm guessing they would announce it. I kind of expect that they do happen to surpass ten thousand. We'll get tomorrow another announcement, just like they announced today that the record was beaten. So um, you know, you can stay tuned for all the different social media channels, news outlets, et cetera for that news because it feels like it's coming. Ten thousand plus feels like it's there, which is again absolutely incredible for this

event. Coffee bed update, I think I won today. You have no idea, but I don't have any idea. So today for Day one CE or no d oh day one d Sorry, so I had over fifty three hundred and you had under fifty three hundred. Okay, I mean, well we'll figure it. We'll find out. Yeah, it's gonna be close. That's why I wouldn't get They wouldn't give give up the the in fight to day. They had it on the lock and key. Sorry, we'll give him some time. Okay, that works. Um, are we doing another

coffee bed for tomorrow? It's too hot? Why is it too hard? I mean sure, well that's so exactly Okay, a hundred. Keep in mind that this number is gonna be much lower than what we have been bidding on because um, this is the day two late registration one twenty one seventy five one one five, two hundred five two ten pond Okay, put it in the sheet. I have two ten and over, and then we'll do another one for the next day. But yeah, let's go. I want

eleven thousands. So bad, so so so bad. Um. World Cup of Vegas, buddy, how'd you do You played with Team USA? Yeah? We we were very confident. We drew Poland, Iran and United Nations basically, which was like a mix of you know, Europe leftover players. Yeah, a little bit of that, a little bit of Russia, a little bit of you know, kind of Eastern Europe. First game against them, um, a couple of the players they had was Mata Simblasts. They

had Anatoly Philotoph. They smoked us five zero. We were all over the place. We just had no chemistry. We were not playing any We did nothing right. The second game was against Iran. We were okay, let's try and get a point here, let's try and win. They beat us for one, so that wasn't fun. But we got on the board. Uh, then we had to play Poland. We're basically out of it, but Poland had a had a chance to make it um, so we knew it was going to be a tough game. We scored the first goal,

they got the next two, We got the next one. Then they went ahead four to three minute ago. I scored a banger, banging volley. The photos that were in the chair, okay, yeah, good equalizer. I celebrate. I don't normally celebrate when I scored, but that one had a bit of a bit of feeling to it, and we end up tying four. Four didn't make it through to the playoffs, but you know, I loved the World Cup of Vegas. I want to play it every year until I you know, can't walk anymore. Um, I just think it's

fun. Like it doesn't matter who we're playing with. It's just like a cool time for all these poker players to get together and you know, kick the ball around, put put some hard and energy on the pitch. And yeah, it was a great day. Apart from losing. Who won, I think Spain. Spain was pretty strong. H they had Adrian Mattea's Latara Guerrera. Uh, I can't remember who else, but they were very good.

A lot of the teams were very good. Like you remember the first few years we did it and it was just a bunch of scrubs and then the USA were just crushes. Now it's like it was USA in Brazil. Yeah, but now every team is good. How good it was Brazil? What I watched very good. I saw some I saw a set piece free kick goal where the goalie scored. I mean like there was stuff like that happening. These guys were like, yeah, yeah, these guys were switched

on. But it was great. It was a great day. Thanks to Tim Adams, thanks to you know, johannas Becca Byan Caveman. Everyone then organize it hopefully next year we get you on the pitch hopefully and we'll see how many he holds up. What's the situation that you're going to propose. So look, firstly, I want to apologize to Adam Hendrix. Apologize. I've I've heard these dms are full of people calling him out for scamming me. Look, and I said in the tweet, I deleted it, you

know, because I felt bad. I had people in group chats that I'm in sending the tweet. Everything that was said is true. No, I understand, but people don't know that I know that you were trolling because you said ahead of time that you were going to troll him. Yeah he was going to yeah, which is I get it. But I'm saying, you read the tweet, you're actually calling him out. Yeah, I mess and I was like, oh man, I forgot to put the sarcasm right on.

But we we joked around about if you scored two goals, I'll put you in the main event. And I scored two goals. What people don't realize that I literally don't go past halfway when I play like I'm just like the last defender. But that game whatever, That's not the point. But we were discussing, and I want to shout out our social media manager Sam

Cosby for this. Let's say hypothetically he put me in the main event, okay, or anyone put you in the main event, and they did some kind of fifty fifty split, eighty twenty split, or like you, maybe you sold twenty five percent. Okay, we hit the record. I'll be I'll be the guy that has been put in fifty to fifty. You are the one that's sold twenty five percent, hypothetically, and Jack Effel draws down

name out and we win thirty years of main events seats. I've already decided that everyone who has action to me is getting the same action for thirty years. Okay, I personally decided that's what I think too now. But you can do whatever you want. I mean, I think it needs to be

probably just lined up ahead of time. It's it's it's similar to you know, if um, how you would line how you would sort out you know, you win like a Bonnie Well no, you know, because Bonny's count those that's very simple, but like you win, you win a ring did that person get percentage into the million dollars three percent things? Yes, yeah, but I think in a lot of cases you should just be up front with it. And all the cases you should be up front with it.

You know, you should just say, like, listen, if I go on to win a ring or win a bracelet and I can get into this tournament of Champions, then you know year a percentage carries over, so they follow up question out for you. Then you know, let's I don't know how much you Let's say you sold twenty five percent, okay, ye, would you knowing that you have thirty years of seats offered the same x people

that have twenty five percent of you a buyer? But you say, look, I'm going to give you guys each let's say all their percentages are equal, just for hypothetical stakes. I'm going to give you each ten k now in cash and your equity is gone for the next thirty years. Yeah, you could organize some of that, but you would you go, You'd be like no, So yeah, we're thinking about that. It's like how much

what's the line? Because even if you're a really bad player this, you're probably going to cash or like luckbox a deep run in thirty years where the guy that has half of you or whatever is probably going to make some money. But it's like interesting to think about, like how you may approach because someone's gonna win, and what's the chance the person that wins has like a percentage or a steak already, like at least what a ninety percent chance that

happens, eighty percent chance that happens the guy that wins the seat. So it's gonna come up. It's definitely gonna come up. Yeah, you know. So yeah, I mean I've personally just decided that, you know, I'm gonna do it because I don't play them in event unless I get people to buy action. So I'll reward them in that regard. And it's not that big of a deal to me personally, you know. But I also understand if it's as long as it's like set forth ahead of time, if

people don't do that, you know, if it's all bonus. All I know is I think Phil Gaffon might get a couple of a phone call to opetrate something. I feel like there's something, there's something that could happen out of this. Yeah. No, I think there're definitely just something that could happen out of this. I thought about this, you know, I didn't know you were going to bring this up on the podcast, but I think I was thinking about this today. Yeah, you know, what are you

doing this situation? And that's what led me to be like, yeah, yeah, I'll just give it the percentage. Not a big deal. It's easy. But it's like some people, I think that's logical. I'm not sure if some people think that way though. We know people who are bad act in the PGT series that happened at the studio and then like they're like there's deals where like if that person wins the championship bonus, then the backer gets a share. There's also deals where the backer gives them all the share

or you know, all the championship bonus. So there's stuff like that out there. I think, like anything, you know, the problems in this sort of thing always arise when it's just not laid out ahead of time, because then it becomes a thing, you know, and just so just always lay it out ahead of time. And if you are in that situation and you are laying out you know, backing staking or share buying arrangements ahead of time, just always kind of put it down in a text message or something

that way. It's not just hearsay. You know, oh you told me this. You told me that. You know, even like I go, you know, you go up to your friends and you say, hey, you want to swap one percent? Like I swapped with somebody the other day. You know, before I started, we were both in day two, so I was thinking someone else though I don't know, but I swapped with someone, but they that person had already backed. They played day one b

and back and they bagged right around starting. But I saw them before I started, and I said, hey, do you want to swap one percent? And they said yeah, let's let's do it. And the person was like, well, I only I only backed fifty cass, I don't care whatever, it doesn't matter to me, Like it's not not that big of a difference. Let's be back. Let's just swap me, you know.

He said okay. But then and then I, you know, I was like, I gotta go because I gotta go play, and I went back to my seat and I just texted him, hey, just confirming our swap. And then he said, yes, you know, just because then now it's like documented, because I don't want it to ever be something where like you said two percent, you said three percent, texted me yeah for me and I snap texted you being like exactly, So it's just there. It

just makes it easier. Yeah, Friday, July seventh, we got Day two ABC coming up for the wsp Man event, the Record Setting Man Events, So the live stream coverage is gonna go like this. The plan is for another five levels of play on Day two ABC. Also on Day two D there will be five levels of play, the first two leve levels, so four hours of coverage will be on the poker Go YouTube channel, also on Poker Goro, but also on the Pokego YouTube channel from the Horseshoe feature

table. Then after those two levels, the final three levels will be on poker Go behind the paywall from the main sets. Okay, so that's when the big guns come out, and I believe it's Lawn McCarron and Maria Hoe on the call tomorrow. I believe. I've forgive me if I am wrong on that, but I believe that's what the talent log is. So if you want tomorrow's the day when if you want to start really watching the remainder of the spmin events. You have to do it on poker Goo. You

have to be a subscriber, so grab a subscription. We have monthly, quarterly, and annual plans available. The best deal that you can get is if you sign up for an annual plan. You use the promo code dream Pod and that'll save you thirty dollars off your first year of a new annual subscription, which brings it down to what it breaks out to is less than six bucks a month, about about a Starbucks coffee a month, and Tim ows me like nineteen to those, so it's two okay, maybe four pans

and two ABC bits. So that's how you can watch the main event leading up until the end. End. If you do join as a pokerg subscriber, you can get entered into the annual pokegre subscriber dream See giveaway, which can give you shot to play in the season ending PGT Championship one million dollars free will. If you do need more information on the rules for that giveaway, just heading over to poker grow dot com. Slash rules No purchase necessary,

void, We're prohibited all that sort of good stuff. Doug Polk is going to start the feature table tomorrow and then we'll go from there. You know, we don't we don't really know what's going to happen. They're gonna be there. They're at least starting in Horseshoe and Paris tomorrow, and then the plan is to break out of Paris and ultimately end up in Horseshoe by the end of the day. As we've talked about already, registration will be

open for the first two levels. It'll close is at the start of level eight, which I think is right around four thirty four forty pm something like that. Um. You know, obviously depending any sort of delays, if

there's race, ceremony, all that sort of stuff. Um. But yeah, And I think there's also two events tomorrow other than the main event, because because I think they announced today that there's like a fifty PLO or something Mounty three day event, and there's also this thought of the seven seven seven Lucky seven something. I think they announced that at least the PLO has been like delayed. They kicked it. They kicked the star time back a little

bit. But I think these should just be which makes sense that they kicked the start time back because you know, people are gonna bust. They'll clear some space and then they'll wait. You know what, what's up? I think all the people need another this. Yeah, but my luck might be turning around a fifth place in the media event un again, just like I did at the Global Poker Event. I'm running awesome in free rolls where there's no money. Did you win any like? Well, yeah, they change

the prizes. I want one hundred few dollars in total rewards credits to use it. That's more than one hundred and fifty dollars that you didn't have before. That is true. And what's even better, it's going on handed mob. That's what Kevin Mas said. Okay, got a little hand in my entry Front of the World Series. Finally terrible Simaim, but we're turning around, all right, Well that's gonna do it for us. No interviews today, a bit of a wonky end to the day, but um, we'll

get back to the interview soon. I will be back in the field tomorrow. You're getting on day to a BC. I got sixty one, nine hundred coming back for day two, so I'm looking forward to battling and let's go make it happen. My name is Donnie Peters. His name is Tim Duckworth and we will talk to you guys later Bass
