Transcript

Hello, everyone, Welcome back to a brand new episode of the Poker Girl Podcast. My name is Donnie Peters. I am joined by Tim Duckworth, mister double Underscore himself. How are you, my friend. I'm doing good. I'm enjoying this rainy Las Vegas weather. It's still raining by you, it's not raining today by me. I'm looking in the pool and in the pool. The pool's done, it's done. It's beautiful. Give us the pool update. It's a lot of money a pool, but it's beautiful.

It looks good. I've been in the hot tub, watching movies in the hot tub, watching football from the hot tub. Caleb, my son's been getting in. He's a little crazy. He's been jumping in the pool. It's about fifty degrees, so I've got him at seven years old, doing spots and going back and forth between the one hundred degree hot tub and the fifty degree pool like a maniac. But it's good. It's good to have a backyard. It's obviously a you know, we got six months until we're

really going to put it to use when the weather warms up. But I'm enjoying it good. I'm glad. On today's show, we got to do. We have to talk about a giveaway. We're not going to do the giveay because it doesn't happen till tomorrow. Tim Twitter. Yeah, yeah, we got to remind people of what this crazy thing is that you have to do.

the napt that returned and launched or relaunched in Las Vegas. So we're going to talk about that, wrap it up, give our impressions of the entire series. We're going to talk about WSP Europe. The main event just finished yesterday, so we got to hit on that. Some of those events as part of WSP Eupe counted towards the PGT. So we got some leaderboard updates that I'm going to let Tim talk about when we get to that point. We got a WPT tournament happened. Oh my god, it actually happened.

I mean the next couple of days they had, like the opening ceremony last night. I saw that on social media. Was that I think it was. I actually don't know where it was.

First up, the North American Poker Tour return. I don't know if you heard Tim, but it's been the first time in more than a decade that the North American Poker too or so it's funny that was kind of the running joke, you know, because they poker stars had constantly said it over and over and over again, you know, first time back and more than a decade, blah blah blah whatever. But it's also interesting that you and I were there, you know, a bunch of days, both just there hanging

around seeing some people and also they're playing. And I don't know if if you're gonna echo the same sort of sentiment that I'm about to say, but we'll see if you do. Is that I felt like a lot of people still didn't fully know about it. Or didn't know about it till the last minute. So I thought that that was interesting just hearing that from a lot of people. I mean, I thought the marketing was pretty out there and in your face. I mean, I you know, I just I felt

like it was everywhere that I looked. I did have one conversation with somebody, and you know, they were telling me how they didn't think that they they don't recall really seeing it. They didn't know until a couple of days before. I mean, listen, end of the day. I know how

poker players are. You know how poker players are. So I think I came to the conclusion of this is that and maybe this goes into I know, we're going to give our you know, some feedback or whatever, but like maybe this falls into that bucket, is that maybe people saw the initial announcements of the napt returning, they saw that it was a sixteen hundred and fifty dollars main event, and then they kind of just disregarded it because you

would think that napt is poker stars. You know, the old ones were five k's. The EPT now is all the five k's. That's what you expect. So if you get initially pushed something that you think is akin to like an MSBT, a WSP circuit, et cetera. Maybe it doesn't have

that oomph behind it to really push you over the top. So then you just kind of like, okay, whatever, it's just a sixteen fifty, Like no big deal, you know, because I think a lot of the players that said they hadn't heard about it were players that I would expect to like play a thirty five hundred to a five K. So maybe they just said, I'm not going to bother it, and then then you just forget about it, and then you make the claim later on that you'd never heard

about it, when I would guess that probably everyone heard about it in one way, shape or form. I mean, the marketing was everywhere. So that's my conclusion there. I don't know if that's right or wrong, but anyway, that's that. Speaking of the sixteen hundred and fifty dollars main event, one thousand and ninety five entries, this did have a one point five million dollar prize bool, so it eclipsed that not by much, but it did eclipse it just over one point six million dollars in the prize bowl.

Of those one thousand and ninety five entries. One hundred and fifty nine finished in the money. The winner, taking home almost two hundred and sixty nine thousand dollars, was Sammy besha Head, Sammy the dealer besha Head, who took down the event. He's a dealer for Hustler Casino Live. I believe, yes, I believe, so yeah. He is going to be a new father soon. He's originally from France, I believe, but lives out

in California. Now I know this because I played with him a bit on Day one D. He was directly to my right, played extremely well. Him and I gotten some fun pots where we kind of went back and forth, and he was he was fun to battle with. So at least from where I stand, a worthy winner, you know. So yeah, Beshahead

beat John Bornstein and heads up played. David Coleman finished third, Ping Lou fourth, Sergio Aido fifth, Nick Schulman sixth, and then Ryan Lang ninth, Aaron Massey tenth, Matthew Wantman got twelfth, and one of our favorite poker vloggers out there, Japanese sensation Masado Yokosawa, got thirteenth. There is a footnote that Donny Peters and Tim Duckworth did not cash. Unfortunately. I'm made day two, so I did better than you. You did, yes,

but you spend more money than me. It doesn't matter on the scoreboard. I made day two, you did not. We know that the scoreboard does not include how many times you entered. I did fire three bullets though, for full transparency, And yeah, I didn't think I was have to fire all three bullets that I brought. But you were standing there when I busted, literally on the last hand before registration, before the break of when registration was closed. So yeah, I mean I thought this event was was

good. Okay, we'll save our feedback till the end. We'll do it kind of our feedback at the end. A lot of feedback. Yeah, I mean, I got listen, there's a lot of things that that are on both sides, Like I think, you know, I'd put them in the camp of this was great, and then I'd put them in the camp of this needs improvement. I'm not going to say anything was bad. I don't think anything was like overwhelmingly bad. But we'll get to that in a

bit. The whole series, the napt series kicked off with a ten three hundred dollars super high roller. That's their naming convention, not ours, because I would never call a ten k event a super high roller. But that's that's what they do at APT correct as well, that's the what do you mean they have? They have fifty k's on the epts. Usually all epts have a five K main event then at like a ten k high roller and a twenty five K high roller in like the fifty k or one hundred K

super high roller. I believe, if I remember correctly, that's how it tends to break out. This ten K super high roller had fifty nine entries, five hundred and seventy two thousand dollars in the prize poll. Top eight finished in the money. Jesse lonis a familiar phase. He plays the PGT events. He's in the studio regularly. He's been he's been hot for the last couple of years. He's been hot. This year he took it down one hundred and seventy four five hundred and fifty dollars for him. David Stam

finished in second, Sergio Ado finished in third. Aido of course I just mentioned finished in fifth place in the main event as well. You had Richard Green finishing at four, Sam's overall, fifth, Jim Callipy six, Jim John Morgan excuse me, seventh, and Shannon Shore in eighth place. Then you had, i'll say, a trio of five K events, three hundred dollars buyings, You had a fifty three hundred dollars potlom no Omaha event, you had a fifty three hundred dollars Mixed games event, and you had the

fifty three hundred dollars high roller. So the fifty three hundred dollars PLO had forty one entries, almost two hundred thousand dollars in the prize pool. Caleb Firth took it down sixty eight thousand, six hundred and five dollars there. Joos Samoo, the Brazilian who had some success during the recent PGTPLO series. He finished in second, Spencer Simpson, third, Dan Shack, fourth, David Coleman, fifth, Matthew Wantman in six. It was only six players

in the money there. In the Mixed Games tournament again fifty three hundred dollars buying there thirty two entries, just over one hundred and fifty five k in the prize school. Ellie Elezra Mister seven cards stud himself took it down fifty three thousand, five hundred and forty dollars. Michael Martinelli is the player he

beats and heads up play. Julian Martini third, David Funkowser fourth, Eric Sagstrom fifth, Eric won two three The Legendary Suite takes fifth, and David ODB Baker, a favorite of ours, a favorite of the podcast, took sixth place there. Then you had the fifty three hundred dollars high Roller event. This was kind of the closing event of the series because it took place. I mean it was a post limb to the main event, is what

it was. Had a five hundred k prize pool, drew one hundred and fifty entries, seven hundred and twenty five five hundred dollars in the prize well top twenty paid. Samuel Laskowitz took down the event one hundred and eight hundred and fifty dollars. There, Shannon Shore took second place. Jesse Lonis, who won that ten K super high Roller to kick off the series. He finished third, John Reard and fourth, John Andres fifth, Nadia and Magnus

got seven. Salzburg that's Matthew Salisburg got eleventh, Michael Josoff twelfth, Anthony who's sixteenth, and John Morgan who we mentioned earlier having a result. He finished in seventeenth. There. So that wraps up the big events as part of the NAPT. The return of the NAPT last time. What was it twenty eleven was the last one? Yeah, I believe it was twenty eleven.

It's funny because you think about the NAPT and like we all we all think back on it and whatever, and you you almost think like it was around for like five six years. It was around for like a year and a half. It was in it obviously was very well received, very successful, and then boom Black Friday hits and see you later. Like you know,

it was like in and out. So it's it's funny to just think back on it and you know, you think it was round for several years just because it it drew so much attention and it was like very cool and it was obviously poker stars and we get it and it was great, but in reality, it wasn't around for that long. That said, it's of course great to have the NAPT brand back. I guess that leads me to

my question here. As we get into like, you know, some of our thoughts on the event, our you know, our criticisms, if we have any, you know, what went well, et cetera. First things first, and I'll throw it to you. Tim is like, well, what do we think becomes of the NAPT from here? I mean, is this what we're going to get? Are we going to get sixteen to fifty main events, a ten k super high roller, a five K high roller,

or some mixed games plo. And they're like, is this the the blueprint for the new version of the NAPT or what I mean, what are your thoughts there? I could see the main event buying potentially going up to maybe around that three K mark. I think that would be a pretty competitive price point for I think what they're going for. As for the schedule, you know, speaking to you know a lot of people at Stars, they didn't have full control. It was very heavily influenced by the EPT team.

So I feel that, you know, now that they've got their feet wet, they might see some changes, especially with the high roller structure. You know, the American high roller market very different to the European high roller market. So we may see some tweaks there. I did like the mix of the schedule. You know, there's some mixed games or some PLO low buyings, all that kind of stuff, So I don't think that would change too much. I think they'll just make some small tweaks. Personally, sixteen hundred

dollars is a good price point. I just think they could definitely go up to whether it's twenty five hundred or thirty three hundred something like that. You know, there's a lot of talk about a five k maybe main that's pretty big. I'm not sure if that could be supported in other regions where the NAPT might go. We're obviously going to be guessing, and we can assume some areas that PokerStars as base Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Canada. Will five

K be supported there? I'm not so sure Vegas one hundred percent, but I think they would want to probably keep it consistent over the whole season. So thirty three hundred that's my recommendation. And yeah, yeah, I mean I think that sounds all right. I'm not going to say I totally agree with you, but I think our thought processes is generally aligned. I mean, I just think that they should be all five ks. It would make sense. But like I just first of all, I think it could.

I think it. I think it could work for a couple of reasons. One, I think there's a void for the five k buy in market within the North American poker landscape. Now. The only real player there is the I mean, I'm not including the w SIP, so just you know, put that out there ahead of time. The WA CIP in the summer is obviously different than anything else. It's it's its own it's its own island,

and a very big, great island at that. But like it's the World Poker Tour, right, But I mean the World Poker Tour, I feel like, is very very different than the World Poker Tour we've grown up with. I mean they they don't. I mean that they used to have. It was like an event every month, if not two events a month, there was you know, twenty to twenty five main tour stops a year.

I mean now it's like there's like what six seven, Yeah, Like there's you know, two or three of them kind of in the spring, there's one to kind of kick off the year. There's you know, there's one coming up now there's obviously the win one, you know. But but like the WPT that that that the WPG started, you know, it had all

those ten k's. Then it kind of transitioned to like thirty five hundreds to five k's in a lot of places, you know, and then some select ten k's with like the l A PC Lagiero five Diamond, et cetera. And in that window when they were doing a lot of like the thirty five hundreds of the five ks, that's when they were running like, you know, twenty to twenty four events a year, main tour events, right, I mean, now, it's they're very few and far between, you know.

That's why I kind of poke fun at the beginning saying like, oh, they had an event finally in Jacksonville, you know, I mean, I'm just I'm poking fun. But that's why I feel like there's there's an opening in the market for this event. And now I will say that it's it's not it's not an easy opening for someone to get a hold of, but you're poker stars. So the potential for you to grab hold of that market, for you to own that portion of the poker tour schedule in North

America, I think is greatly heightened. Like you can do it, you know, And one of the reasons I think you can do it is because you're an online operator and you can fuel this thing with qualifiers, which I saw a lot of qualifiers, and I played with a bunch. I saw a bunch not only qualifiers from the regions where Poker Stars is available within the US, but also from like Europe. You know, there was people that

came over because they paired it with the whole f one thing. So you know, I kind of in a way, at least I want to view it like back in the day when Poker Stars was available to play here,

like I would spend some time trying to qualify for EPT events. You know, well, it kind of be cool if you're in Europe and now you can qualify for NAPT events, Like you know, it's cool to come over to the States, like it's cool to come to Las Vegas, to come to you know, Philadelphia, that that area, Like, you know, you compare it with some good things that are happening at the in the regions

that you're available. So I think that that can help if as a company, if they have behind satelliting people in from different regions, is in Europe to America, Then yeah, I do think the five ks could definitely work, like you said, ye, and I just you know, yeah, I feel like the five K. Now, I would have like an eleven hundred or a fifteen hundred to like open up the series very much like they

do on the epts. You know, the EPT has in a lot of spots, like they have the Eureka Poker Tour or the Austraeas Poka Tour or whatever it is, and it's that it's that first kind of opener that's like the sub tour to the main tour, that sort of thing. I don't think you need like an official sub tour, but you could have like an opener. I actually like they had that five fifty Poker Stars Cup. Yeah, like in a way, like I would change that to like a one

K, like an eleven hundred dollars buy in. That's what you kick off the series with the Poker Stars an APT cup, Like that's the kind of the initial opening thing that leads into a five K. So yeah, you know, I just feel like there's very much an opportunity here for the NAPT So that's kind of my first I mean, I guess that falls into criticism because I just personally like, I don't think you needed a soft launch me personally, and I think we've talked about this before on this podcast, is

that I feel like the Poker Stars brand is strong enough. I feel like the NAPT brand, even though it's been gone for so long, more than a decade, is extremely strong. So they could have brought it back with a five K, you know, I feel like a sixteen fifty main that has a one point five million dollar prize pool that only gets sixty one point

six million in the prize pool ultimately. I mean that's kind of like it's not that it's a letdown, but it's just not a like a big story that I would anticipate from the napt's return, right, So that's where I'm at with that. What I will say is some some thoughts on some other things. Resorts World is fucking awesome. I mean, like, at least from everything that I see, is like the venue itself isn't doing like so hot within Vegas because it's newer and it's obviously big, and they spent a

whole crap ton of money to make it. I mean that place is so incredibly nice. It's so nice, and like the conference space where the tournament was held is so so so so so nice, so elite. It's just like everything is first of all, everything's brand new, of course, but also like everything's like digital, Like all the signage is digital on all the rooms, which is like, you know, obviously great where it is within the property because you can walk kind of right out. You got like Starbucks

is like a five minute walk. You've got that little line of shops is like right there. The restaurants are you know, down a couple of flights of stairs instead of on the other side of the property, like you know, you're when once you get to the conference area, like you're separate from like the casino space. So it's like, I don't know, I loved it. I thought it was great. Like I I think I think Poker Stars and or Resorts World like really need to lean into that space from a

poker aspect. I don't know if that's Resorts World like doing it on its own, you know, kind of building its own brand, or if that's everything is just paired with Poker Stars and the NAPT. I don't know exactly how I envisioned that, but as a poker guy, like it was it was incredible for that space, right. I mean obviously Poker Stars brings it with you know, their on site marketing, you know, all the stuff that they put up, the branding, et cetera. Like it it felt

like an EPT. And if you've ever been to an EPT or see an EPT, you know exactly what I'm talking about. It just it felt way better than anything else that's available in the US market right now, Like it just did. Definitely, Yeah, it was so much nicer than I expected. The way they like that like dressed it up, the amount of stuff they had on side to you know, exercise, the giveaways, you know, help people out. And yeah, impression wise, I was a plus.

I love everything about it except losing money. Resorts World uses Poker at List. I mean, I honestly I need to start a campaign for like all these companies to change to Poker Atles. I mean, I don't know what why on earth you would ever use Bravo these days. It boggles my mind. But just the functionality of Poker Atlas just seems like it's very much more modern, whereas Bravo just seems like it's in the past, and I think we can speak with some experience because at the studio it uses Bravo.

So yeah, I mean like I feel like we need to start pushing the studio to use Poker Atlas. I think it's it's really great, you know, you know, the versatility that that platform has. Also, like you know, just I talked with Justin Hammer, who works with Poker atlis a lot, you know, and he was telling me how, yeah, Poker Outlist is still new and it's it's obviously a hard thing to like get in

there, and like you know, buck the Grandfather trend. But one of the benefits is is that versatility and is that intimacy that you have with the Poker Atlas staff or like you're working with them, they have somebody on site, like if you ask them for something they needed, if they don't have it, they might be able to build it. You know. Like that sort of stuff is very good. Where Bravo just seems like it's been Bravo forever. I mean since I came into poker, and you know, it's

like it has it ever changed. I mean, it's the same old thing. So so yeah, I loved that Poker atless was available there, and I think more venues should really explore using it. I thought the dealers were incredible. I didn't have one issue with the dealer in the three three days that I played. They were all extremely, extremely good, which is you know, that's that's what you expect from poker stars, because when you go

to the EPT, the EBT has amazing dealers. So you come here, I mean it's like, well, who are they going to get for the dealers here that they found the best of the best. A lot of them were American, but they found the best of the best, and that was very good. I already mentioned the qualifiers. I thought it was great to see a lot of qualifiers, you know, all over from the US also from elsewhere in the world, which we know that you know that bolsters events

things that I think need a little bit of improvement. The schedule itself, you know, like I mean, you and I talked about it, that sort of thing, like you know, you don't start a tournament on a Sunday with a ten k I mean I was. I was at a ten K player's house on that Sunday with the group of friends from Grid Aaron Gamble. We were at somebody's house and like, that person's a poker player who might play the ten k, but he didn't know about it. A lot

a lot of people he was texting with didn't know about it. He's like, you know that that sort of thing. So I know that a lot of our players didn't really know about it, you know, So that was I think a bit of a miss an extension of that. I'm never starting a sixteen to fifty man event on a Monday, just ever, Like that needs to be Thursday, Friday, Saturday starts. You know. That is I think almost every tournament, you know, at least in the US.

And maybe this is because you know it was there was a large a large hand at play from the EPT staff. So things are different in Europe, I get it. But here in America I would really push not just poker stars but all operators, like your your main events, the thing that you want to be, like the big field event. Like if you have three

starting days Thursday, Friday, Saturday. If you have two starting days, either Friday Saturday I think is best, but Thursday Friday can work, right I especially at the price point of sixteen fifty that's very You're not just getting pro you're getting wrecks like you're getting sixteen fifty to make it accessible. Well, then you need to double down on that by making it not during the week. I mean, I skipped Monday because I knew I had to work

and I was going to plan around work. You know, maybe I fire another two if it's on Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Like you know, I'm a working person, so I think I can speak to that U little bit. Yes, sometimes the turbo flights, the ones, the two early ones that ended at five fifteen am, you have to you have to throw those in the trash and never speak about them ever again. Okay never now the third like, so, what they did is they had three starting days

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and then each day had two flights. You had one started at eleven, then you had at least on the first two days it was eleven and I think five or six. And then but those flights were the same structure on the first two days. The third day you had the big starting flight was at eleven am, and then I think it was at eight o'clock you had a turbo starting flight. I'm all for like final turbo starting flights that ended like one or two AM something like that,

drew a you know, respectable number of one hundred and thirteen entry. So yeah, if youeople want to blast into a turbo flight like great. I guess as a whole, the structure of this tournament was like almost too good. I mean it was the structure was great. I don't know if that's necessarily a good thing or a bad thing. I know, obviously a lot

of people like it. And I've talked about this before and I usually talk about it when I when it comes to like the w s AP stuff, is that as a working person, I just tend to kind of avoid events where I think I'm going to be locked in or I have the potential to

be locked in for three, four or five days, right. I mean, obviously it's good to be locked in for that long, but I'm more of like a two to three days for a poker tournament, unless it's like the w CP main event, WPT, you know, World Championship at the

Wins something like that that you're really like splurging for, you know. But these, yeah, these smaller buying event That's why I like, you know, like the Colossus, the Mini main event, like all that sort of stuff that the World Series, because you you know those those eight hundred dollars deep stacks, like I mean it's two three days, you know, and

you're you're in, the other in you're out. I mean this term it was first day, it was forty minute levels, but you got to I think it was level seven and eight were the same, or it was nine and ten were the same level of double level. There was two back to back double levels, like the next day that the the levels into sixty minutes. The day after that they went to seventy five. I'm like, this is like Jesus, this is like w SP main event, a sixty to

fifty price point, Like what are we doing here? You know? Yeah, I think you know, let's say they get rid of the night flights. What they could easily do is they could we had now a dinner break, and they should have probably sinked the dinner break with the end of registration. But I busted like maybe the penultimate level of the day. They could have easily played two more levels on the day ones, therefore potentially busting a

few more players. They can re enter that kind of thing. So just these small little tweaks could really make the event better, especially, but it

depends on the price point. If it's a sixteen hundred buying, that's very different to if they do a five K. So once they figure that out, hopefully they look back at the structure, make the necessary tweaks, make the necessary tweaks to the actual schedule, and kind of launch hard in twenty twenty four with kind of the framework of what their whole series and too will be going forward. Yeah, I will go to my grave that dinner breaks

need to be gone from poker tournaments. But the food options, Like I was actually just thinking about, like what food options did they have in the room. I can't recall anyone ordering food. You have to go get it, pick it up. So yeah, it's not like the studio where you can just order your table or no. But I'm saying, like, cut the dinner break and the tournament at like eight thirty and then people go to

dinner. So you want to do that stuff, I don't. I mean, I just feel like a dinner break in a tournament and listen, it's not just this tournament. All these tournaments have dinner breaks. I feel like it just really kind of messes things up. One, Like, I mean, an hour is like not really a lot of time to like go to some of these restaurants and like sit down and like eat, talk with some friends, digest your food, et cetera. It's an hour is rushed in

a lot of places, right, It's just how it is. Also, like I mean, I just I don't know, I personally don't care for a dinner break because and I know this is a personal selfish thing, but when I eat a lot during a poker tournament, you know, you kind of get that sluggishness, and I don't really want to come back to a table trying to play the last couple hours of a day and be feeling a little sluggish because I just had a meal, like I'd rather everyone because a

lot of people will tell you, myself included, that when you play a poker tournament, you get to the bagging portion. You know, you go home and it takes some time to unwind because it's exciting to bag. You have adrenaline. You got a kind of unwind. Well, if we end a tournament at eight thirty, you know, for that day, yeah,

Tim and I go to dinner. That's my kind of unwinding, you know, it's like you can have some drinks, whatever, you can hang out there for a little bit, you know, maybe you spend a little bit more money at the restaurant, et cetera. Like I feel like that's a better way to structure these things than forcing in a dinner break, which I think is just I don't know, I just don't. I don't think that

a dinner break necessarily works for today's poker rule. I mean, I just don't, just me, but could be a personal thing, who knows. And then my last comment is just the resorts world these chips. They have to take those chips and crush them and get new chips because the colors did not work. Just to me, it was only the colors of a couple

of denominations. They just got to First of all, the part of the problem is that all the chips had the same color flag, the exact same purple flag, which if you're color blind or slightly colorblind, that doesn't help. And I heard several players, at least five or six of them, say yeah, I'm slightly colorblind or I'm colorblind, Like this isn't really you know, these chips are a little bit tricky. The one hundreds and the

five hundreds were too close. And then I think on the higher end, like the five k's or the twenty five k is and whatever, maybe twenty hundreds, we're also really close. So just fix those and it'll be good to go. But you know, overall, listen, happy it's back. I'm eagerly awaiting what they come out with next. I thought they might announce kind of the next steps for the NAPT during during that event, yes, but but they obviously didn't, so we'll just have to kind of wait and

see. But I listen, I'm I'm expecting big things in twenty twenty four from the NAPT. I think we see probably three to four stops. I think you have to just push it to a five K buy in, like I think it can work. I certainly think it could work. Five K buy ins, two or three million dollar guarantee for the main event, Like, I think that's just amazing. I know it prices out my buddy Tim, maybe even prices out me a little bit, but hey, I was

I was already prised out as sixteen fifty. Let's just be honest. But all yeah, but all in all, like, yeah, I'm happy to have it back and if if it if it, you know, in my perfolked world, if it does become the North American version of the EPT, then I think it's a win for poker, which is which is a very good thing. So yeah, that's what I'm expecting from this whole thing. I don't really know where they're going to go, you know, I would

probably probably Pennsylvania is would be my next guest. We go Pennsylvania. We have obviously Ontario, New Jersey, is it in uh, what's what's what is it? Michigan? Yeah, so I guess. I mean the light up answer is obviously those four locations. I'm just not sure if Pennsylvania or Michigan can support one stop. Well, I definitely think Pennsylvania can. Pennsylvania's big if you have a casino wise like location, like I don't really know

that. Yeah, I feel like they'll figure it out. I feel like you can figure it out there and if you depending on where you positioned it, which my guess would be, you do more so the Philly area versus anywhere else in the state. I mean, Pennsylvania is a huge state, but you do the Philly area, you're going to be drawn from. You know, New York City, New Jersey, like you know, the Baltimore

area. I think people will travel for that sort of stuff. Philadelphia is a you know, it's a tough city, but it's a good city, so you know, I think people would wouldn't mind checking out Philadelphia, you know, running up the stairs to the Rocky Statue, you know that sort of stuff. I think Michigan is probably a little bit harder. I think New Jersey works, you know, it's in that same sort of region. New Jersey does have Atlantic City. Atlantic City has worked in the past for

poker, and now you inject poker stars into that. I think it can work there. Michigan would be a tricky one for me, but hey, some of those MSPT events and those other Midwest events that do things in Michigan, I mean they blow doors, so I mean maybe it can work there too. And then for like I guess other areas. I mean you mentioned Canada. Canada is a good one that's in North America, so why not go there? Of course? And then I feel like Florida, I feel

like Seminoles in play. I mean Texas we potentially, yeah, yeah, Texas. I just don't know because of how Texas does poker where it's like the be a member to like, I just don't know how that works with Poker Stars. I mean, Poker Stars spent a lot of time I went on their road trip throughout California, tagged along as a media person, you know, when they were trying to really push the online poker initiative out within California. So like, do they go back to a property out there?

You know? Is that something? So who knows? I mean, we'll see, but I would say Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania are all in play, Canada is in play, and then probably Seminole. I feel like they have a relationship with Seminole to some extent, so maybe they go there. I don't know. I mean, if anyone can run what I want is to be a five, it's Seminal, right, I mean that's what it is. And then I think the resorts World one can just continue to

work. So yeah, so yeah, I mean I would even say, like next year maybe, I mean, it obviously works with Poker Stars to pair it with the F one stuff if the F one stuff continues, right, So, I mean supposedly F one signed a ten year contract to be here, in Las Vegas or are you just going to continue to pair it

with that? Okay? I also think now that what's happening in December here in Las Vegas, where it's like a mini WSP, even though the WSP doesn't have anything running here, like it's everywhere, seems to be running tours, So maybe you try and finagle an event within that window as well. So yeah, there's options and I'm happy it's back, is my ultimate takeaway from it all. Let's move on WSP Euro Up ten three and fifty dollars main event event. They had a new name for this one, I feel

it, so they called it the main event European Championship. I mean, I guess that's a way to distinguish it from the main event, the main event that we missed, the europe Main Event. It's already been like separated. I'm I'm with you, okay, I'm fully with you. Okay, I'm just telling you what it is. Record setting field though eight hundred and seventeen entries. It beat the previous record which was set last year that had

seven hundred and sixty three entries. So three years of continuous record breaking did it change the It is re entry now, so you know, it's a little bit different. That said, I, you know, I don't totally disagree with that, although I always liked when it was a freeze out, you know, but you know, it is what it is. That's kind of poker these days. I'm not a big deal, but you know, King's Casino over in roswit Off is always kind of does really well for this.

So eight hundred and seventeen entries more than seven point seven million euros in the prizeable. Top one hundred and twenty three finishers were in the money. The winner, taking home one point five million euros, was a twenty six year old former basketball player out of Austria, Max Nuogobauer. He defeats Taiwanese vlogger Eric Sai heads up the final hand. I don't know if you saw it, Tim, but it was I read it. I didn't watch it

lot. It was a doozy. It was a It's one of those where you can read it but you don't get the effect of actually seeing it happen. So the final hand, it's uh Nugobauer versus h Si heads up. Sai is a shorter stack. Binds are three hundred thousand, six hundred thousand. SI raises on the button to one point two million, so a min raise. He gets called it comes Queen eight seven two diamonds, Queen of diamonds, eight of diamonds, seven of hearts. Nuogobar checks, Si bets

one million. Nugobar makes the call. I mean I can say the hands because you know it's on the stream, you see it. Nugo Bar has jack eight, no diamond he has, so he has second pair on the flop, and SI has jack nine of diamonds, so flops pretty well for him, although he doesn't directly connect with a pair just yet. So it goes check call on the flop from Nugo Bauer check calling a million from CI

turns to the ace of spades. Nugobauer checks. Si bets six point three million, and this is an over bet because he bets six point three million into five million. Nugobaarer makes the call four of spades on the river, so Cy whiffs He's got that combo draw just completely bricks out. Nugo Bauer checks the river and side decides, you know what, I'm gonna try and go for this one. I'm all in sixteen million. Nugobar tanks for quite a bit. Eventually he finds the call with just his pair of aids,

which on this board of Queen eight seven Ace four his third pair. So good for the Austrian finding this call here cy of course, just as the old jack Hi missed diamonds, missed straight and yeah, Max Dugerbauer is the champ, winning one point five million euros. It was an incredible call. It was a fun final table overall. I really thought Michael Rocco was gonna

win it. He uh, he played very well at the final table and then had a massive blow up where he four it all in with ACE nine off and I think he ran into aces and that was pretty much the end of the line for Michael Rocco, and he knew it was gonna As you said in that group chat, you know, Rocco blows up. But no, it was a massive punt. You know that was an insane punt five handed. Is it that much of a come on? Yes? I mean I don't know. It feels like prey standard Nada. He's watching all these

high rollers. No, you do it. You probably want to do that with like ACE four suited ACE five suited something like that, And like some of the thinking there is if you're getting three bet by, So if you're Roco and you have ACE nine off, okay, and you four bet Jam. If the guy three bet you with ACE four, he's now folding the ACE four. If you have the ACE four and the guy three bets you with the ACE nine off, you can four bet jam and fold out some

better hands. You can fold out like an A seven suited in a eight suited, a nine suited, stuff like that, right, probably even with the ICM that was happening at the time, Like you can probably fold out some ACE chins, maybe ACE jack off stuff like that. So you can fold out some some possible better hands. But there's better hands that you can fold out more of them if you have the ACE four. At least this is my thinking of some of this. I mean, I just don't think

Rocco needed to really do this year. Also from watching the Final Table, I watched a bit of it, and I don't think anyone was really getting too out of line. So I just don't think Rocco needed to take it take that spot, you know, like even if he thought maybe this person's getting out of lineable Rocco was like very much in the driver's seat for a lot of this, like you know, and he I mean he I think

he took out the person in sixth place. He was a chip leyder five handed and then one one orbit he's got he's out, I mean, you know, and he knew it. Afterwards they asked him in the interview and he was like, it was a massive fucking punt. Well, what do you want me to say? You just don't fucking do that, like he was. He was so over it. Not happy at all, right now, yeah, not happy at all. That's how you fucking punt it off. Everybody, if you want to know how to fucking punk it off,

let's how you do it. Yeah, that was a great interview, very entertaining. Well yeah, I mean listen, he was honest about it, and you know, you gotta love it. So yeah. Defending main event champion Omar l Jack won the five fifty pot limit Omaha five and fifty yuro potlam and Omaha for just under sixty six thousand euros. That event had seven hundred and nineteen entries. Daniel Divores won the twenty five k GG Millions eighty

nine entries there six hundred thousand euros for the win. Santoche Servanna won the fifty K diamond high Roller for six hundred and fifty thousand euros and then immediately got on a plane to come film high Sax Poker. So yeah, so Santosh is taking that six hundred and fifty thousand euros that he won and putting it to good work. This week at the filming of season, I don't

want to give me no spoilers. The only spoiler is that Santosh is on it, and everything that we've heard is that the freaking season is going to be out of this world. So I can't wait. Let's go. It's gonna be a lot of fun there. So that's all that's been still filming today. I don't even know if film a week basically yeah, last day today. Yeah. So that wraps up another edition of doubissip Europe as for the Wscipe. Now now we look forward to December for ws AP Paradise that's

taking place down at the Atlantis in the Bahamas. I have no idea what to think about Dibisipy Paradise, to be honest, Like, on one side, I think it's gonna be good because it's the World Series of Poker. It's Bahamas in December when it's cold at a lot of other places, you know. On the other side, I'm like, they're going head to head with the WPT World Championship that has a forty million dollar guarantee on their prize bool, So I'm like, hmm, okay, I kind of flip flop,

you know, back and forth there. But then I'm like, well, WSIP Paradise is certainly better for Canadians and a lot of Europeans because the tax situation in the US, and then there's that. But then i also see some of this marketing from the DOUBSIP and I'm like, this feels like they're really worried. So I'm kind I'm kind of like all over the place that said, I will happily sit on the sidelines and watch it happen because you know, ultimately, I think more poker is better and it's going to

be really interesting. As we've said before, see these two massive series, these two big brands, the great big brands, the World Crees Poker and the World Poker two go head to head in December, and you know, see if there's there could be two winners, there could be two losers, there could be one winner one loser. I don't really know how it's all gonna shake out, but of course once it happens, we'll be talking about it here on the podcast. WPT speaking of just wrapped up their event down

in Jacksonville over at Best Bet Jacksonville. The WPT Best Bet Scramble, three hundred and sixty five entries in this one prize pool topped one point six million dollars. Does that number feel low to you? We'd have to look this up. I feel like that that usually gets like five hundred in that one. Who knows you can look that up. As I ramble about these winners

here, forty six players in the money. Frederick Normand won it all three hundred and fifty one thousand dollars in his pocket for becoming the latest World Poker Tour Champion. Tom Wheaton Faded Spade. Tom Wheaton, friend of the podcast, Friend of Ours, finished in eleventh place. Ben Wang, who's I don't know mister WPT these Days finished in twenty second place. Carlos Chada thirty fourth, Andrew Nimi, a WPT ambassador, finished in thirty sixth place,

Stan Jablonski thirty ninth, and Jerry Wong finished in forty fourth. What did it get for the last year's best bet? Well, it's had a couple of years off. Last time it was ran with season eighteen that was basically twenty nineteen. I don't no ways anymore. I covered this one. Actually three hundred and forty nine entrants, one point six million in the prize, bool, so kind of about what I got. A year before that had three fifty six that was won by Tony Tran, and then year before that

was three twenty three. So there, I don't I don't know why I felt like that got five hundred. I mean, that's my mistake of course. So well, it's a good ye Jacksonville place, I think for poker, because it's like you think Jacksonville, you think Florida, but it's like it's not anywhere near like Seminole, for example. No, it might as well have just be in another country because Jacksonville's way up you know, Seminole and that that big stuff that usually happens is way down way down south.

So nonetheless, three and sixty five entries, it's good. Listen, I Am team WPT because whenever they come and have a tournament, I like it. My criticism is that they just don't have that many tournaments anymore. To me, Yeah, you know, I feel like everything is WPT prime in another country, Like I want, I want twenty events in the States every month, twice a month, whatever, Like, let's go. I'm looking at the schedule. So season twenty print the hats tim make WPT grading.

You're just kidding. Season twenty one, which is this season. I know they don't do seasons, I don't think anymore, but I like seasons. No, they do seasons. I think they're still for the year. The dates change, there's still seasons. But yeah, so eight events this year. Of those eight events, we have that one in Australia, we go back to last season, we have a total of ten events, so two

more one in Australia as well year before that. Obviously, Also it's also when they are because if like three or four of them are like bunched into like one week. If we go back to season seventeen, that's the first full year before before COVID twenty events, twenty main tour stops, including obviously

events in Russia, and Canada. I think twenty is the number. I think twenty is the number because you don't really want to attack June in July and you know, maybe you do, maybe you don't, you know whatever. But there's ten months outside of that. Two a month, yeah,

you know, I think you could probably do. I probably do one a month in the States, one a month elsewhere in the world, you know, because there's not a lot of crossover, Like I don't think people a lot of people are traveling from like WPT Best Bet Jacksonville to go to WPT Vienna like that. That crossover is not that big. But as the World Poker Tour, I certainly think that it benefits you to be global and be

elsewhere with your events. So can you guess the most events held in a single season on the WPT excluding the weird COVID multi year season, the main tour, just main tour, just main tour. Wasn't there one when it was like thirty two or something twenty four? Season eleven? I remember that

season that felt like way too many. Lot. They had a couple of new international events, you know, merit cypers Plastic, Copenhagen, Mazagon whatever that is, Frog, a lot of the international stops Venice, Barcelona, a couple another Canada stop, So that was their biggest year that I feel like. I feel like the wheelhouse is eighteen to twenty events. You know. If you do twenty, maybe it's like twelve here in the States, eight international, if you do eighteen, maybe it's twelve and six, you

know, something like that. I feel like, I feel like that's that's the World Poker Tour that I want. I don't you know that that's just a selfish thing, you know, but that's that's what it is. I mean, that's just what I like. So so yeah, I just I feel like I see WPT Prime way more and I'm like, I'm not, you know, this is the World Poker Tour, like you know, like, but that's also going back to the NAP. That's why I think there's an opening there for that type of tour, you know, because yeah,

anyway, that's that. This episode of the Poker Girl Podcast is also brought to you by our good friends over at gto Wizard, the number one app for poker players and the number one app for poker players that just got better because they recently launched the gto Wizard AI that really allows you to look at every single spot, all different bet sizes, solutions, et cetera.

So yeah, all right, PGT leaderboard stuff because you know, as as mentioned, some of these events ABISP Europe did count. So Tim, what's the update. Starting with the winner of the

European Championship. He now moves to Max now moving to nineteenth place twelve hundred and fifty PGT points. Tried to find him on Twitter, tried to find him on Instagram, doesn't exist, but I, with the help of our friends of poconws, I got in contact with him, So hopefully he'll be you know, maybe come out for PGT Last Chance, get some extra points and then play the PGT Championship. Eric Side runner up to Max. He

moves up to forty second place with nine hundred and seventeen points. He cashed in the twenty five k high roller at the WSP earlier this year, so he's right on the fringe. Not sure we'll see him, but if he does make a trip, he's pretty close. A couple guys at cashing some of the high roller events orpen He moves up to sixty seventh place six hundred and seventy points. I bet we see him, not just at WSP Paradise but Last Chance. Michael Rocco, who've discussed he's had I think five cashes

this season. He's up to sixty eighth with six hundred and sixty nine points. Santos Savannah three Cash's eighty first place. He is in Vegas right now, as we've mentioned, so hopefully we kind of handball him some of that information about what's coming up. And then Daniel Devores one of the bigger movers with his win and another final table. He's up to eighty second place with

five hundred and thirty seven points, so they're the biggest movers. Steven Schidwick he cashed in the main event, so he crept a little closer to Chris Brewer who's in third on the leaderboard. But coming up we have four Aria high rollers next week, WSP Paradise, which we've mentioned, and PGT Last Chance starting on January second. Yeah, I think a lot of those guys that you talked about, probably all of them will be at DIBSIPI Paradise.

I would just guess that if you're playing Dibisipy Europe, you're probably inclined to go to Dabisity Paradise. I think somebody like Orpncassa, Chicaglu, Santos Savanna and Daniel Devores probably with the tax situation of having to play in the US or more inclined to go down to Paradise, So probably see them down there. I would guess the Douvaspy year winner Max Nugerbauer is gonna go down to

Paradise. I mean that would be my guess, right, you know, yeah, yeah, and then Eric say, you know, same sort of thing, probably gonna go down to Dobaspy Paradise. So we'll see how those go. But and if they can, you know, get some points from those events that qualify as part of the Douvaspy Paradise schedule and then move on into that top forty as we close out the season on the PGT. All right, I guess we're gonna rant vent f one. What are your thoughts?

So it's it's weird I've heard. I don't know if this is just like some random gripes, but there's been some stuff out there on social media that there's thoughts of maybe not continuing with the event for like the full ten year contract or whatever they decided. I mean, the whole thing seems like

an absolute disaster to me. I mean, they spent how how how many months have they been like building the stuff that it's it's like actually affected traffic from its may Yeah, like all during the summer, it was a disaster trying to get to the WSP like it was a mess. It's a mess now from what I've heard. I read some stuff about like the breakdown of it. I mean, it's not just everything that they've done. It's not just going to disappear in a week. I mean it's gonna take like several

weeks if not months, to like get everything back to normal. But I've also heard that I want to say, it was like the commissioner of like the transportation here in Vegas or something. I don't know, but there was somebody that was quoted that's obviously superior, senior and like in the know and

whatever is that. I think there's like an Amazon convention that happens right after this F one, So because of that, I don't know if it's exactly Amazon, but there's basically what he was saying is that there's a big convention that happens right after F one, and because of that, they're basically going to leave stuff up and not start dismanding because they don't want to like mess

up the convention because it's so big. So that just delays things for like a week or two, right and then like some of the stuff they're gonna leave up because it doesn't make sense to like constantly build things up every single year, so they're gonna leave some stuff up. So I don't know, it seems like a mess. I mean, the whole thing seems like a disaster. I guess we won't fully know the effect of it all until next year, right like until we see what happened. Like next year, are

they gonna need to start in June to prep for November again? Because that sounds like something I don't want anything to be apart. What I've heard about the road is like the paving is kind of like a wan every ten years kind of thing. So they might be I've heard the roads are as smooth as silk. Oh they're nice. I've been driving on them. Yeah, so there's like minor repairs if needed, but so that side should be fine. Yeah, taking everything down, all the grand stands, all the lighting,

that's going to be hell. That might not happen till you say, there's an Amazon conference. But let's not forget. We're gonna hit Christmas. After Christmas, we have CES, which is possibly the biggest conference in Vegas in January, So it's not gonna it's not like January, not like Vegas ever gets quiet. It's always going to be busy, so hopefully they get the stuff put away. I'm you know, I'm not going to be attending that. I'm actually a little bit excited to watch. I don't watch F

one. I don't really care about it, but I just kind of want to see the city on TV with you know, cars racing around it. I think will be cool. I might last like four laps and then go to bed because it's at ten pm a Saturday night. But I'm a little more excited to watch it on TV than I actually thought I was going to be so less venting more. Yeah, slightly optimistic. So I believe it's this. Amazon Web Services is November twenty seven through December first in Las Vegas.

Okay, I mean Amazon is massive, so I can only imagine. I mean, this says it's going to be across multiple then news, so that sounds like it's going to be absolutely enormous. So yeah, I'm with you in terms of like watching it. I'm an F one fan. I watch a bit of the race. Is this this season though, I will say is that has been kind of a letdown because Max Verstappen has the championship locked up, he won it, like he's already wont it. He can

fucking not show up for the rest of the rest of the season. It doesn't matter, right, he's I mean, he's that good. He performed that well. So that's that's one of two things. One just general for F one, like that's just not a good thing when somebody locks it up

so early. But also when you're launching a brand new race in such a premier venue that you want to highlight so much, being Las Vegas, like you would want the race to really mean something, right, So it kind of stinks that the first time F one is on the Las Vegas Strip for this this partnership between them, the race you know, ultimately doesn't really matter because because Max, everyone's playing for second place, right. So yeah, so that's like a hard sell, which which is kind of a bit of

a bummer, you know for me as like an F one fan. You know, listen I to this day every single time because because as you said, the race starts at I think ten or eleven o'clock night, race makes perfect sense every single time. It doesn't matter if it's a sporting event, it doesn't matter if it's the World Series of poker, whatever it is. When I see aerial coverage of Las Vegas at night, I get goosebumps and

the hair stands up in my arms. I love it so like big fight nights in Las Vegas, boxing or UFC whatever, Like when they show that overhead shot of Las Vegas, I'm like, yes, I'm in like yes, like this is this is the city that I love. This is the gambling city, like this is this is what it's about. I freaking love it so so yeah, Like so when I see F one in Las Vegas,

of course I'm gonna be like, yes, this is awesome. Right, It's just a bit of a bummer that ultimately the race doesn't really matter, and outside of that race window, it's been a disaster for everyone local. It just has been like I don't I don't know how like Brent Hanks and the rest of the staff and even the players for High Stake spoke with this week are venturing down to the studio to film. It seems like a disaster today. It closes at seven. It's trip sorry, we kind of

good luck. Yeah, yeah, because they've been playing like pretty late at night, so yeah, I mean that's just yeah, it's it's gonna be gonna be wild. So I don't know. We'll see if ultimately this is something that continues with Las Vegas. But you know, as as all the locals have, I think we all have kind of our concerns with it all. And you know, the idea at the start, I think everyone was like, yo, yes, let's go F one in Vegas. Great.

Now that we see it all and it's to brutality, we see the execution, we're kind of like, yeah, we could do without this, you know, can we could do without this somehow? Maybe once every three years, we'll take it once every three years. Can we just extend the contract that way? I don't. I don't know. I don't. I don't know if I I don't know if I wanted it at all, So who

knows. I would. I would be more inclined as an F one fan to put up with it if it like kicked off the F one season, so like it really mattered, you know, it was you know that sort of thing. But like now if it's kind of at the tail end, it obviously doesn't matter because we're Stapping has won the championship already. It's kind of like whatever to me. You know, that's kind of a bummer. So oh well, but hey, I mean, we'll see how it goes. That's all we got, I think, right, give away tomorrow,

Remember give away tomorrow. Tim's Twitter account slash x account, that's Tim Underscore Underscore Duckworth around noon, Las Vegas time. One thing that I do want to talk about on probably the next episode. I think we got to get into the Game of Gold. Okay, I think we I mean, it's everyone seems to be talking about it. I have lots of thoughts. I've

watched all three episodes so far. Episode four will be coming tomorrow. If you don't know what the heck we're talking about, you've been living under a rock. It's it's GG Poker's new I guess new take on pograph. They're dark, that they've taken poker afh. They're dark, and they've now made a Game of Gold, which is supposed to be part poker, part reality show, kind of similar to you know, some of these competition reality shows Survivor, The Amazing Race, Big Brother, like that sort of stuff.

Right. It airs on the GG poker YouTube channel every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. So this week or kicked off last week on Friday, and then they've had three episodes total the next before that, so it gets aired tomorrow, so you guys can check it out on the gg Poker channel. Daniel Legrand who's involved, Jason Coon's involved, Josh are is involved, Maria ho is involved. That won't get into many more specifics than that, but if you guys want to go check it out, then you can do so.

And next time Tim and I will get into it on kind of what we've seen so far. Maybe we'll do like I don't know, every four episodes or so, we'll kind of talk about it and see, you know, see where the season's at or whatnot, and go from there. So it's interesting to say the least, and I think I think a lot of people will find it interesting and ultimately enjoy it. So go check it out if you haven't all ready. Of course, we have No Gamble in the

Future and High Stakes Poker on Poker Go. New season of No Gamble in the Future Season four debuts in the coming week, so stay tuned to Poker Go for that, and yeah, let's go see you guys later. Get nothing else to say. Peace, Peace, The Churne expressed
