This is...THE MAIN EVENT

Hello everyone, Welcome back to another episode of the Poker Go podcast, the first episode following a main event day. Let's f and go timmy boy. My name is Donny Peters. His name is Tim Duckworth. Twenty twenty three World Series of Poker main event kicked off today. Ye from all of my sources, although I don't have an official number. Maybe you do. You owe me a coffee? Yes, I believe we got over a thousand entries

unconfirmed thousand and eighty unconfirmed thousand. That that seems incredible. It seems kind of what we were discussing. Well, no, but I'm saying incredible, like compared to past years. It seems like past years are much lower on Day one day. But we obviously are expecting a record. Yes, after everything that's happened this summer, you know, all the numbers being really good, satellite winners all over the place, so we expect a record setter here.

We expect this to surpass biggest Day one a flight. No, that's I sand Greg. It was a thirteen thirty five and twenty twenty nineteen send. But before that, we have to go all the way back to Greg mess in two thousand and twelve when we had a thousand and sixty six, so pot from that out lyle, you know, were those all four starting flights? Oh? Wait no? Also it's like, what were they? No those ones with the three starting flights. You're right, yeah saying that's

what I'm saying. So so yeah, it's it's tricky because not everything is Apple's to apples, of course, but ye still, I would say more than a thousand entries on day one A bodes extremely well for blasting through the record. Of course, the number to beat two thousand and six top main event eight thousand, seven hundred and seventy three entries. That is the year

that Jamie Gold won the whole dang thing twelve million dollars. He beat Paul Wasasuka and heads up play Michael Binger, finishing in third place in that one. Jamie Gold was in action today, so we'll get to all that. The bulk of our conversation today is going to be surrounding the dubist f main events. You know, we're going to run through everything else that is happening

here at the World Series of Pover because there's a lot. We're gonna have a community cards that we're gonna bring you guys the mini main event bagged up chips. With five players remaining, you have moshe Raaelt's winning the Colossus. Hopefully I didn't butcher that name too much there. Benny Glazer is chasing gold bracelet number six. Maybe going back to the conversation of you know who could be a favorite to catch Phil howmuth Benny? Pretty sure I mentioned Benny.

No, no, for sure, we talked about Benny Glazer, for sure. There are approximately twenty one players remaining in the PLO eight Championships. Are they still playing? Yeah, they've got about forty five minutes left, okay. WSP online five K is trying to play down to the final six because then those final six are going to have I think it's a day off and then on Wednesday they come to play live for the gold bracelet in three hundred

You're listening to the number one poker show in the land, and it's time for a new edition of the Poker Go podcast Community Cards. We're a little too pot of thing. We've got an email from Tom Flynn saying he won

a WSP satellite earlier this year. Oh kind of makes me think that it was on Global Poker, because you know he signed off on the email with his Global Poker using thing. Well, maybe he was just telling us, hey, come find me in the global streets. But he's on his way to Vegas to win his seat. His final hand pocket ten's USUS pucket aces ten on the flop lucky Bango boom seat his way. He's on the way, So good luck to you, Tom, Wayne. You get to Vegas

and jump in the main event. And a second part to this community cause quickly to Tommy, you gotta let us know, like what day you're playing, Yes, where your seat's going to be, all the sort of stuff. You know, we'll come say hello for sure. You know, let's go if you get if you're playing Day one C on Wednesday and you get table six seventy one, easy table, I'll see you there, pal Uh. Second part community, cause we had a little issue today. What was

that we had a player given I podcast hat. The hats that we have been claiming do not exist, we do not have them, but somehow he got one, and we were both thumbfounded. We talked to Brent Hanks. Brent Hanks was the culprit, he gave him the hat. We were trying to figure it out. I just need to know if if this person, this player gave Brent Hanks the passwork supposedly he did, and Brent was going to give him the high. Does Brent even know what the passably not?

But anyway, he figured out that he got a hat. He was playing in the main event just right you know, in front of that area. And then we realized that the hat wasn't a new hat. It was actually your hat. Yeah, it was the hat that I took home that I've only worn once, maybe twice, I believe, so the player William Pletts. You know, don't worry about, like, you know, the hat being dirty or anything like that. You know, I only wore it once or twice. I wore it in the three K. I did not last

long, so don't worry about it. But yeah, but it seemed like it turned out pretty pretty. Didn't speak to him, and he's going to kind of elaborate on, you know, the hat, and then I put him on the spot basically accusing him of stealing it. Wow, there you go. All right, So let's hear from William right now. He spoke with Tim during Day one A of the World Series of Poker Main Event. Here with William. He just back day one. I have the main event

one hundred and sixty or three thousand, is that right? Yeah? How's your day go so far? Give us a little bit of a rundown. It was pretty smooth. First level. I lost about twenty K. Then I saw Brett Hanks and asked him for a hat. Got past the at the family family pot password and he got me a hat. Put that on, and since after that was kind of smooth sailing had one big hand I hit ran aces into kings and picked up a lot of chips that way,

and other than that, it's like just pretty smooth four levels. You're sitting here on the rail and I'm walking past, and I hear he say, family pot. I turn around, I see you wearing this hat. You know you say, hey, I had to go over your head. I had to go over it. I have to go to Brent to get me to get you this hat. I want to talk a little bit about that, because I don't think you know this, but we didn't have any spare

hats, right, you know. He said he was gonna give me a hat for the his pot for that the other the new The Crappy Show high Noon, high Noon. Yes, And I said that's okay as long as it's a run good hat. He said, try it out. But then he brought me this one, and I was pretty stoked. So he got that hat. He gave it to you. I need to tell you that that is actually Donnie Peter's hat, isn't it? You stall my co host hat? And we told Donnie's like, that's okay. Any war for a

few minutes. Sorry, you stall the hat, but it brought you some wrong goods. I think it's yours now now, I just want to know, do you have an apology that we can issue? Donnie live right now off the day one night, had I known it was Donnie's hat, I definitely would not have accepted it because I don't know where his head's been. But but getting his hat now, knowing that it was his and the run good, Like maybe maybe I'm pretty stoked that it was his. And uh,

I guess sorry Donnie, that I have your hat. You got three days off. What are you gonna do before you come back for day to way? I think there's gonna be some relaxing maybe place in poker, since I love poker, that's why I'm here. But like, yeah, all right, William, good luck. We'll see on day two, Day three, day four, all the way through the final table. The hat, hopefully thanks to him bagging up a healthy one hundred and sixty three five hundred.

He puts on the hat and everything I saw him, I saw him, and he came over and he introduced himself to me, and we talked for a little bit. He said started off slow to the day, but to put the hat on, and I watched him Stacker guy, as I was standing there right before he got up and introduced himself. So you know, good on, William. The hat remains lucky. If only we could get the re up of the hats, oh my god, then we could actually hand them out. I have like seven that I need to give away.

I mean it's I got people given me their address. I said, if you come up with me and you say family pot and I don't have a hat, I'll just take your address and then I'll ship him out to you. So you know, that's what we gotta make happen. So I don't know who needs to get on this customer service team, whoever it is, like, can you make the hats happen? I got driving us nuts. I got something funny the works for tomorrow. I don't want to it

does an involved a box the hats? I hope it does. I mean, come on, there's a little bit of a kickoff to the hats and then kick at to potentially the next Community CODs episode. But I'm going to keep that within and we'll hopefully be how to reveal that on the next episode. All right, let's get into the big news of the day. That is, of course, the kickoff to the twenty twenty three World Series of Poker main event, the first of four starting flights. Don't forget that players

can also register for two levels on the day twos. There are two day twos, so the first Day two is going to be Day two ABC.

That is when flights one A, one B, one C, when the survivors from those flights join in also with any late registrants then and then Day two D is going to be in ons own and those are all the survivors from Day one D who also play with the late registrants that join in on Day one D. So we're not going to know the final number for the dubsming event till the weekend, so it's going to be quite some time.

Lay two. That said, more than a thousand entries is what we've been told we have from our sources, and we trust everyone that we've talked to out there, which is a great number. Sounds like unofficially one thousand and eighty would that's an incredible number. About eight hundred to eight hundred and ten or so left the CHIP leaders Yahuda Dion three hundred and eighty nine thousand, nine hundred. I mean, what in the world did this guy do today?

You start the tournament was sixty k. What are you doing winning every pot? Obviously? Clearly? Geez Um Diane is a construction worker from Israel. It's his first time playing the Dubsity main event. All this information courtesy of Tim who was out on the floor as they bagged up, talking to Yahouda and getting the lowdown. He took eighth in the Israel Poker Championship for nine thousand, five hundred and thirty two dollars, and he's using that money

to play a little bit of a satellite in a way. I mean, with three hundred eighty nine thousand in the bat, I mean you can pretty much fold to a cash at this point if you really want to do that. But I mean, I don't think he did much fallowing today, and I think we're gonna say much following going forward. Yeah, I mean, we'll see how Yehuda Dion does going forward. But putting almost four hundred k the bag from sixty k starting stack, that is nuts. What are the

blind start out on day two? Five hundred one thousand? That suns. So three hundred eighty nine big minds. Seems quite a few big, incredibly healthy other notables to do well and bag up chips on day one A are Shoto Nakanishi. Nakanishi won the ten thousand dollars short deck event here at the World Series of Poker last year. He beat Ben Lamb and heads up play to take that one down. I think it was Brian rast who finished in

third place in that event. Doug Polk also did well today. If you were watching the broadcast, you know that Jeff Platt was out in the field getting some tidbits here and there. We were checking in with him. Remco and I were on the broadcast. Jeff spoked Doug Polk at one point, who told us he had quite an eventful arrival to the World Poker today because he was rear ended at a stoplight. A decent start to the main four this gentleman, Doug Polk, not a great start to his overall day.

Could you stand up for a quick sect for me please? What happened to you on your way in here? Yeah? So I had a good morning. I still like breakfast, get ready to get ready to come play the World series Poker made event, you know, level one, let's go. I was at a stop. I was an intersection, and I was fully stopped, and I'm just here, jammed out some tunes and I just get nailed behind from the behind by someone who's just like slams in the back of

my car. You're okay, Yeah, I was okay. Everybody's okay. Everyone was okay. She was a little shaken up. Her car got a lot more of the damage than my car did. So, but yeah, we've exchanged info and stop and I said, look, normally there's more of our process here, but I have to get to level one. They're gonna blind me out. Like you know, a lot of people would take that as perhaps a bad sign. How are you looking at it? Well, I don't believe in science. Yeah, that's a fantastic way to come play.

I'm sure that feels great, especially when you're trying to get here. You probably already registered. You want to be in your seat because they're gonna blind you out. Otherwise, you know, I would have popped the UEE. I would have called up someone who said, give me a refund, I'll come back tomorrow. Yeah, So that happened to Doug Polk, but still went on to bag a good amount of chips for Oz Joca bagging up

chips, John Hennigan, John Robaraba Blonde also bagging. You had Joe Katta in the field, former main event champ, another former main event champ, Martin Jacobson bagging up chips, Damien Solace bagging up chips, and of course Jamie Gold bagging up a nice healthy chips sack. Jamie Gold was on the first feature table. That way, we had two feature tables today on the

Horseshoe Feature Table. And if you missed any of any of our coverage or you couldn't watch it for whatever reason, um check out the polker Go YouTube channel because it is archived there. We're gonna be bringing coverage back again tomorrow kicking off the live stream at seven pm Las Vegas time for another six hours of coverage. So that's what you can expect for these day ones. Jamie Gold started the day on the feature table, did very well. Think he

probably finished right around two and a half starting stacks. So the two thousand and six WP Maniment Champ, who told Jeff Platt that he hadn't been to the World Series of poker in four years. He hadn't played any live poker in four years. Did it very well. It was kind of like the Jamie Gold of old for a little bit. You know, he was chatty, he was making hands, he ate blueberries. So we see another runs

Jamie. When Jamie won in two thousand and six, eight thousand and seven hundred and seventy three entries, that is the number to beat to set a new record in the WSPE Main Event, and Jamie Gold is moving on to Day two. Some of the notable eliminations include John Party, Jesse Yaganuma, Nick Maimon, Joseph Chong, Ryan lang Landon Tye, Jared Blesnick Clayton Fletcher, and is els ii'den the one who we have to talk about because this sounds like the most insane way to have your day. One of the main

event got so it has to be fake. I mean, I mean, I don't. I don't think it really it is, but like it just gets it's just so unbelievable that I have to question it. Yeah, So hide in the one, which, by the way, we couldn't really believe was his name, but I guess it is his name. He started off the day, and I'm going off what was reported on USIP dot com um courtesy of the official live reporting team Poker News. They reported that he started

up the day he took down a good pot with a four beat. Then he got in another big pot, a four beat pot against Reuben Carrera. Hiden, the one had pocket kings, ran into the pocket aces of Carrera. Brutal thing to happen, ye, you know when you have pocket kings. So he loses half of his stack there then and he tangles again with Carrera and this time around hide in the one five bet jammed, putting his tournament life on the line again having pocket kings again. Carrera was right there

to meet him with the pocket aces. Could you imagine kings to aces? Is just insane. To have that happen, you know, twice in in a short period of time, twice in one day of poker. To have it happened in the main event, to have it happened to the same player is just wild. Ask for a refund that spent that the sent Iiden the one to the rail out of the tournament. Quite the imagery from is it? Matthew Bergland, the photographer here who got the photo of hiden, the

one just sitting against the wall in the corner. I don't know where he was exactly, but on the side of the room, elbows on his knees, head in his hands, just absolutely destroyed from what just happened. And understandably so, because I can feel that, I can feel that that's just brutal to happen. Kings into aces twice on day one of the dubs we made event to the same player. I mean, what in the world,

that's just crazy. That said, I gotta feel like the poker gods have to have something good coming for him, because you can't deal someone a blow like that the lucky seven you got, you gotta give the guy like something. I mean, So, poker gods, if you're out there hiding the one, I mean, come on, you did him kind of you did him kind of dirty today. The hand with um that Landon Tice told he told Jeff Platt, which is on the poker Go Twitter account, and he

got posted there. He folded a full house on the river of a ten ten eight, deuce three board or deuced five board. I can't remember what the river card was exactly what it was. In the inconsequential um. But Landon's opponent this is all according to land Landon's opponent bet the river um for I think eleven thousand. Landon Tice had pocket deuces and raised all but five thousand of his chips. The other guy moved all in and Landon folded the

deuces and the guy supposedly had two eights. I can't remember exactly if Landon said that the guy showed the two eights or if he said that he had two eights. But Landon was then eliminated, you know, not long after. But wild stuff is happening. We saw a massive hand on the feature table, the second feature table that we had today in the Horseshoe, Kyle Fray, a professional player up against another professional player, Jimmy Guerrero. This

hand went Jimmy Guerrero, who's from France. He gets moved to the table, he opens pocket aces, gets two calls. I think it was Dewey Tomko called with pockets sevens. Then Alex Keaton called with pocket eights. I believe that's how the action went, and those players had those hands. If I'm mistaken, please forgive me. It's been a long day and it's pasted one third in the morning. Then Kyle Fray gets pocket nine, so he three bets. I think it went raised to either eleven hundred or one thousand,

was the original open. Then Fray made it six thousand, relatively small. Four bet from Guerrero, he makes it thirteen thousand, six hundred, thirteen thousand, nine hundred, the sevens and the eights fold. Frey moves all in for like eighty four big blinds. Guerrero of course got the two birds, the two aces, the rockets, the burgers, whatever you want to call him. Boom, he's in there for the call flop is a nine. I mean, what the heck? Insane, Absolutely insane. So

it was a wild day. You know, they always say day one of the main event, the most important thing is to put chips in the bag. A lot of players take a relatively conservative approach, but we did see some fireworks throughout the day. There were four eliminations on the feature table during our time streaming, two on the first table, two on the second table,

so the chips were flying again. You guys can catch the archive of that on the Poker Go YouTube. Tony Dunst did very well on the feature table, a Swedish player named Antoine Suarez did extremely well and I think could probably be someone to watch. Has some experience in some European events, but seemed like a very very good player. So the Queen Ferry Galfon no Esther Kim, who is John Reardon's wife, who we've talked about John Reardon being

on our fantasy team, being the king of our fantasy team. While the Queen started on the feature table, she was on the table with Jamie Gold. So yeah, so it was a fun day of coverage overall. You know, one of the one of the things that I liked so much about today's coverage is it was pretty talkative throughout. We also on the second table, we also had Dewey Tomko, told a lot of fun stories, talked a lot um set. He said while playing to the table that it was

the most fun he's had playing poker in fifteen years. Was Tomko a legend two time runner up in the event. He remembered both the times he lost and how he lost getting his money in good both times, he told the hand histories remembered him exactly. But he did say, I don't know you can do that. You're the stack guy. He said that the best thing that happened to him was finishing second, because he feels like if he would

have won, his life probably would have taken a different direction. He said, back then, when you won the main event, it was kind of like a thing within the community back then that if you won the main event, kind of bad things happened to you because you you fell into some bad ways. You had a lot of money at the time, like you know, you got pulled one direction or the other, your vices got to you,

all that sort of stuff. So he kind of felt like it was a blessing for him to get second both times in a way, said he's gone on to have a really good life. So yeah, but he was a lot of fun up there. I forget what else I was saying. Oh, what I was saying was they all played really really fast. There was maybe two or three tanks in spots where the tank was for sure understandable,

like it was not nothing out of the ordinary. I think maybe the longest someone thought was a minute, fifteen seconds, minute, thirty seconds, like you know, facing a riverbid something like that. But nothing crazy, very fast play. Everyone was very talkative and chatty. A lot of personality, So it was really good. It felt more like a home game than the DUBISPA main event. But it's also only day one, so you know,

it is early. I'm sure things are gonna tense up a little bit as we get closer to the money, get into the money, the money gets much bigger, all that sort of stuff. But so far, so good, A lot of fun overall. What are your kind of takeaways from the main event today? I was surprised to see so many like known players. Normally you walk around Day one A and you're like, who where is everyone? I know, three people in the whole field here? It was

like packed, Yeah it was. It was also it was packed, but it was also There's a lot of tables to choose from that we could have put up there that had one or two very no poker players. So I think we just got lucky with that second choice, having you know, Tony Dunce, Ferragalfon, Keating Man Finger, Dewey Tomko. That was just like seemed you shouldn't really happen on Day one A of all days. But yeah,

I think a lot of people played today. They probably want to, you know, bag chips enjoy July fourth, have a couple of days off come back. So I think that's why the field today was full of stars. And also, you know, approaching that eleven hundred number. Yeah, tomorrow will be interesting. Um day one B. It is the fourth of July, so I'm interested to see who comes, who neglects parties and family time, you know, at least on the American side, because it is

an American holiday. I don't know when Phil Hammyth is gonna play your Boy seventeen. I don't know if you heard the coverage day, but Remco and I were talking about what is Phil Hammyth gonna come dressed as? Has changed something? Oh he did? Yeah, damn it. I was gonna have some fun with this. Now it's just not fun. I was gonna say what should he come dressed? As we asked the chat, there was a lot of good suggestions. We ultimately decided on the fact that whatever we suggest

doesn't matter. He's going to pick the worst possible outfit because that's what he does every single year. My here's what I said. I said he should come dressed as in a football uniform head to toe replica uniform. I'm talking shoulder pads, I'm talking pads everywhere in Las Vegas Raiders, silver pants, black top that you know whose jersey he'd wear? Eighteen? Davante Adams number

seventeen eighteen, next he won. I don't know who eighteen is, nor do I know where Davanta Adams first played, Green Bay Packers where philis Wisconsin? Baby is too good to be true? Obviously Phil Hanryth will not pick this one, but that's what he should pick. And honestly he should come in with the freaking Raider, the Raider ats, get the Raider cheerers, get get what's his name? What's the who's the owner of the Raiders?

Mark Davis? Get Mark David on the phone. Let's go. Actually, you know what, there's no number eighteen and the current Raiders wrestling exactly what's he? Even better he is the eighteen, then he could be the eighteen. I don't mind that. I mean very well too. You know, but he tweeted something about being like a circus conductor or something, and he's like, what should dann Kate's dress has? Well, you know what, like if he if he played tomorrow, he should dress in the Uncle Sam

outfit. Yes, you know that is even better than in Rocky when Apollo Creed came out and that Rocky. I want to see him in a robe if he what if he was Apollo Creed's outfit because he wore the American get up. And then Dan Kates because he always wants to do something with Jungleman for whatever reason. They're like best he was and he was Rocky and they

did a little fake boxing match in the hallways. Yeah, but he's never when they came as Gelf whatever and they were doing the sword fight and all that sort of like feels done the like the MMA boxing thing before, like two thousand and twelve ish. So okay, fine, then he can't do that. I'm still I'm Raiders. Get the Raid, Get the Raider ats we're in Las Vegas. I also thought that it was also put Davante Adams in the main event. I also thought, um, yeah, that would

be cool. Um. I thought, what's it called the Golden Knight's mascot, which is just a Golden Knight with the Stanley cousin like a crocodile or something. No, that's well, that's the Helo Monster. But I'm talking about Wait, he's a what a Helo Monster? What is that it's like a lizard or that a real thing? Yeah, yeah, for sure, look it up. G I l a monster, look it up. I'm looking. I'm surprised you haven't known of this for okay, yeah, this

is right up Antonio's singing. Is it exactly? Antonio probably knows. He fb owns three of them. Um shout out Antonio Abrego, our photographer. If he came a dressed as the Night the guy that like skates around in the ice and goes in the crowd and that sort of stuff came dresses the Night, he could have the Knights drum line behind him. Maybe you get

chance, who's the hill of Monster. Maybe he comes out and you know all that sort of stuff carries the Stanley Cup, and I just want the Stanley Cup carries the Stanley Cup. That'd be pretty cool, you know stuff. Yeah, of course, because I actually, I mean I feel like I feel like Hellmuth like thinks of it like the day before and just comes up with the biggest nonsense. So expect him to be dressed in at and the Long Card tomorrow. And Dan Kate says a lion or something, I

like the Uncle Sam thing, But he would have to play. You have to play on July fourth to do the Uncle Sam thing, which I don't know if he would want to. So yeah, Tomorrow, Day one B of the w Men Event Action will kick off Cards in the Air at noon Vegas time. They're gonna play another five levels, so ten hours of play. There's obviously breaks after every level. There's a seventy five minute dinner break also thrown in there on the poker Go YouTube channel. For the second day

in the row, Remco Rinkima and myself will be on commentary. We're gonna be covering levels three, four, and five. Three starts at four pm, but we will start the live stream at seven pm Vegas time. And the reason for that extended delay is that so we can cut out the seventy five minute dinner break, we cut out all the breaks. We just go boom, boom boom. It's literally six straight hours of poker. Okay, I can't ask for much better. So if you want to check that out,

you can do so on the poker Go YouTube channel. It's also on poker Go as well, but you know you can find it on YouTube. The one thousand dollars Mini Main Event five two hundred and fifty seven entries. Tim and I talked about this one basically having to halt the registration process because there was too many bodies in this place, almost five hundred and fifty thousand

dollars for a first place. There are five players remaining, Jeremy Oleon leading the way, Jennifer abad Is also in, Oliver barons In, Josh reichert In, and Bradley Gafford in. Those are the five players remaining. They backed up ships. They will be coming back tomorrow at twelve pm. We will discuss the winner of this event tomorrow after everything wraps up. Can't I can't imagine it's going to be too long of a day for these guys.

Not. My structure at this point is pretty tree four yeah, four hundred dollars Colossus more than fifteen thousand entries in this on nearly sixteen, fifteen thousand, eight hundred and ninety four. Moshi Refaolt's winning five hundred and one thousand dollars for his finish topping the field. Pea Chen got third, Ian Steinman Our Guy Colossus, Ian ste Prince Ian. That's right, sixteenth place for us getting us the field, bow on us getting us a nice chunk of

points here. Absolutely love to see it. A bit of a heartbreaking exit, I would say for Ian Steinman because of the way he went out. So here's what happened. There's sixteen players left under the gun that Ian's table goes all in. It folds to Ian Steinman in the small blind. He announces that he's all in. Big blind goes into the tank asked for account. After I don't know a minute, big blind folds. Ian immediately stands up, looks at the people on his rail and says, I didn't see

the all in from under the gun. Ian tables Jack six off, did not see that the player under the gun moved all in was up against Queen Jack did turn a straight draw. I think it came nine eight acts turn seven, so did have some outs there on the turn with a straight draw, you know he could also hit a six two. But River bricks off and Ian out in sixteenth place on fortunate air. On Ian's behalf he said, I believe I heard him say afterwards that he said he got distracted by

some between somebody talking or something. He didn't see the all INChO So a bit of a heartbreaker there. I think he did pick up twenty three thousand dollars, so you know, not the worst of it. Yeah, you know, of course, your your eye and much more money and it is a bit of a craftshoot at that point. So unfortunately for Ian, but he did do very well for us in fantasy. We thank him for that way to go. Ian, appreciate you getting us that field. Bonus getting

us those additional points. When you got to the final eighteen, I know you didn't have the finish that you would have wanted, but big things coming for you, sir. In the main event. I can feel it. The twenty five Big Bet Mix, three hundred and seventy seven entries. They are down to four. Are they done for the night? I'm checking right now. Okay, well that's three down to three. Look at that. Who is it? We lost Tomazzi Glusco in fourth. Okay, so we

have Benny Glazer, Federico Covado and Julio Beluccio. Yeah, battling it out. Is Benny still in the lead, No, just slipped to Julio. Okay, Benny is looking for his Maybe well no, it says one more level. But I'm assuming that Jenna Chia played all winner. Yeah, I mean, yeah, who knows, um, Benny Glazer looking for his six WSP goal rale. He won one earlier, he won his fifth earlier at this World Series of Poker. So Benny Glazer trying to get it done,

trying to move up those ranks. It seems like everyone is winning a sixth gool bracelet. Yeah, you know, Shawn Deep, Seaun Deep did it, Jeremy Osmas did it. Now it seems like Benny Glazer is gonna do it. So you know, if you got five, you're feels like you're just gonna win your six. That's just how this goes. M What did Jason Mercer? You win six? Five? He won his sixth? He want Jason did? Yeah? Yeah, So there's a lot of people just

winning. Everyone's just winning six. Home is gonna win his eighteen twenty six.

By the end of the ten thousand dollars PLO High Low Championship, about twenty entries remaining from the two hundred and seventy seven entry field, nearly six hundred thousand dollars up top if you want to be exact, five hundred ninety eight thousand, six hundred and thirteen dollars for the winner in this one, Stephen Deutsch leading the way, Hassan Kamal Australian really yeah, John Holly also in the mix Um Funny Story, Chris Vich, Ben You, Dylan Wiseman,

Martin Zamani, all out there, still in contention. They're all on the money. This one is what final table today or close to it? Play it out tomorrow is Yeah, it's just as players bagging for the nights. So coming back tomorrow, it looks like nineteen players for day three. Okay, what's your story? You got a story? So we've discussed on the part about the promo table we have set up and the money that we leave out to people to pose photos behind. Well, I decided I'm going

to spend a good twenty five minutes cleaning it up. So whenever that set up all the money, I re rubber banded it. I got one of those link rollers, link rolled the table. I threw out the trash. I may it looks so pretty. And as I'm doing there's people are coming over and taking photos. I'm taking the photos for them. And I see my boy Joseph Hashim walking in Joey Baby walking into Sugar Mate. He walked straight past me. He was with a group of people. I didn't recognize

anyone. So it wasn't his sons, wasn't his daughters, wasn't his brothers anything. And then they came back and I saw one of his party like come up to the table and walk around me to pose, and I saw Joe had the phone out, and I'm at that exact time, I'm basically done. I'm cleaning the cards up. So I as I'm cleaning the cards up, I pull out the seven and the three, I put it in the top and I go, here we go. This makes it good.

They took a photo of me and Joe chatted for about fifteen minutes. Pay he said, he said he's playing one day, okay, but no, we we caught up, talked a little bit about Australian poker, talked about family and stuff, and it was good. It hadn't really talked to him in a while. So, yeah, good to see Joel looking younger by the day. Yeah, he looks like he's looks like we're older than him. It's not fair. It's unreally saw on his getting Instagram story the other

day he was sitting at the pool at the win. I believe I mean, I'm like this dude, his skin looks immaculate. Man, what a Joe? What are you doing? What creams? You know what creams? Listen, Joe hash and I know you're doing well. You get a lot of money. You want to crapt on business, working out all this sort of stuff. You should probably start a skincare line and just use yourself as the model. Because I don't know what you're doing, but it looks freaking

incredible, all right. The WSFP online fifty three hundred dollars, No them and hold them High Roller Championship. There were three hundred and four players, one hundred and four re entries, so four hundred and eight total entries in this one. Three hundred ninety three thousand dollars up top for the winner of this tournament is the one that they are playing down to the final six. It's a six handed event playing down to the final six. They're gonna pause

them. It's playing out right now. I have the screen up. We'll get into why I have the screen up in a second. So they're gonna play it down today, day off tomorrow, and then on Wednesday they're coming back and they're going to finish it here at the Horseshoe live, and we're also going to be live streaming it on the Popero YouTube channel. So the

final six are going to be battling it out. I leave sixth place will pay eighty thousand dollars eighty thousand and some change, so they'll be guaranteed eighty thousand, they'll come here, they'll play live. I kind of like this, I do playing down to the bracelet, this sort of thing. Um. I have the screen up because Sammy Silverl Sammy Baby is still in. Still believe he is him fifth of eight right now, fifth of eight, but but very healthy overall. Ethan Rampage Yao also still in second and Chips

Larry Bird eighty four. That is you've all braunched Geen, he is in. I believe a Pov Alexey Pakov, so very good high roller player. There are eight players left. They are guaranteed forty four thousand dollars. We drafted sam Silverl Sammy Baby on our twenty five K fantasy team, which, by the way, Ian with his run in the Colossus Ian Steinman the field bonus, the extra you know, two and a half or three points or whatever it is for making the top eighteen moved us into first place, back

into first place. Yesterday was a roller coaster of a frigging day because we dropped to third, we had the lead, we dropped all the way back to third. Then Ian Steinman gets us to field bonus, we get our butts back up there on top. We are on top, first team with more than a thousand points, lots and lots of poker to go. The Dubins be main event is a vent number seventy six on the schedule. There are ninety five live Gold Bracelet events and there are how many online? Fifteen?

Okay, there's a lot. There's a lot of poker left to go. Okay, So Sam, if you can hear me, and I know you can't, but I'm going to pretend that, Like you know, the energy is going to carry the sound, so you can text him if you want, please just win, Come on, do it for us. A win in this one would be a great boost to us because it is a five K. The scores are worth or one and a half time on the multipliers, so this would be great. Let's go, Sammy silver roll,

make it happen, buddy. I was trying to say if any of our heroes bagged Day one. Eva may Well, John Reardon played, Sad played, and Sean was multi tabling the online event. Who he was He was the chip leader if or one of the chip leaders, one of the top two or three stacks when they got into the money. Um think he got like thirty fourth place or something like that. Um, so Seawande be able

to get us two points? Nice, nice job, Sean. He also probably picked up some POY points there, which is of course what he's chasing. He's chasing Ian Matacus. I think Sean isn't third right behind him, He's jumped behind Brewer. Now yea Chris Brewer who won his second goal ray the other day he won the ten thousand dollars nolam at DUS seven single job. Earlier this summer he won the two hundred fifty thousand dollars Super high Rollers.

So Chris Brewer jumped up over Sean deep into second place on the In the POI race, Ian Mattacus is still leading the way. Okay, so that race is getting hot and heavy. Plenty of actions still left at the World Series of Poker. Let's go Sammy do it for the team. Baby do it for the team. For the team, I would imagine John Arden is still in. I mean, I don't know for sure, but I

did see him out there. I thought they had a kid, So I'm wondering who's watching the kid with They're both just grinding Day one A of the main event. The kid also played one a Oh okay, yeah, I don't think that's allowed, but okay, final six players in this online event. They're gonna return on Wednesday, July fifth on the Poker Grow YouTube channel.

So that day there's gonna be a lot of streaming. It'll be this that online event, the conclusion of that will play out, and then also day one see coverage of the Devis Command event, so a little bit more than the six hours of the day one w M event coverage. You'll also get that final table of the online to live event. So really big day for poker. If you want to check that out, we welcome you over on the Poker YouTube channel. Coffee bet Up day, Baby, Donnie takes

round one, Get me a coffee. Let's go to buy my own coffee today. Do you want me to get the coffee tomorrow? Come away in I mean just just text me on in the morning for what we're doing, just because I gotta figure out what I'm gonna come in today. I was gonna come in much earlier, but I got caught on a not joking two hour, forty five minute that was great. Loved every minute of Italy long U. So yeah, um so the first first day of the coffee.

But I had nine twenty six and over. You had nine twenty five and under. I want it with over a thousand entries, although it listened technically and it's not confirmed that no, I'm giving this to I resigned, but I've got my number for one babe, but I went first yesterday, so you're gonna get first today your number for one B. So this is like, I'm not gonna change my unless you get the same night. Unless you get the same number number for one B. We're thinking it was right around

one thousand and eighty today. Tomorrow is the fourth of July. I mean, by the way, can they just stop putting this event on the fourth of July, Like maybe fourth of July should be the day before one night? Yeah, like yeah, you know, kind of give everyone what the heck is this hand that's happening right now? Was Sammy, we gotta hit an ace. We hit an Ace Ace ten Verse kings Ace on the River. Oh baby, so I left. Yeah, and Sammy's got a ton

of chips. Now wow, that's incredible. Sorry, I mean, I just whatever I'm trying to think, because like Rem and I were talking about this today on the stream, like is it gonna be up? Could it be down a little bit from today? Yeah, just because it's the holiday, you know, Like, are people just gonna kind of did people opt to play today that we're thinking maybe play a later day? You know, maybe you don't want to play with Day one D. You don't want to

possibly risk playing ten handed. I mean last year, remember last year they were like actively warning people to not play Day one D either, like listen, there could be a risk of like capacity issues ten handed play all the sort of stuff. So if you just want to make it easier on yourself, play Day once C or earlier, you know, and then people did transition to play Day one C. Are people kind of thinking along those same

lines? But also like with the record numbers that are expected, are they thinking, Okay, Day one c's gonna be crazy, will be bigger than we may expect. Yeah, So then they're like okay, and then you think anyone that might have played Day one B because it's on the fourth, are they then just going to push it to Day one seas then people are like, well, I'll just play Day one A, which might be why we saw a lot of a lot of people playing Day one A. Day

numbers were up, there was a lot of pros out there. Maybe that's the idea. So I don't know what's going to happen with tomorrow. I'll say one thousand and eighty, one thousand and eighty, so the same as today. Basically, Yeah, I want a thousand and twenty five. All right, So so what's like, how do we doing this? Just close to the pin? Close to okay? Got it? Um? Yeah,

I was. I was talking with Remcros, like, you know what, I think we'll probably see one B on par with one A. I mean, yes, I don't think it'll be exact, but you know, I think one B falls between one thousand and twelve hundred, which is kind of on par. I would be more surprised if it gets like a fifty you know, eleven seventy five twelve hundred something like that. Yeah, I would be most surprised by a big number than a number like nine hundred, eight

hundred, you know. And then I mean day once he's gonna be freaking gangbusters. We know what's gonna happen, you know, gonna get you know, three thousand and four thousand, whatever it is. And then Day one D is gonna be bananas, so gonna be fun. These we were child was checking. I've been checking on Bravo these some of these satellites. Oh my god, number five Mega's given thirty five seats, thirty two seats or whatever it does. The two k's given forty seven seats. I mean,

what the heck it's it's incredible. I was in there today playing the USP twenty five seats scramble gave away forty seats, like I mean, it's just it's nuts, it's wild, it's crazy. In then that that room, the middle room, just like every table tomorrow at eight am, I mean, I was talking with my co captain Matt Clark because he was like,

you know, should I play the eight am Mega tonight am? Like five six steal like eleven I think it was an eleven hundred, and I was like, who the heck is gonna get their ass up at eight am to play poker. It's probably the best satellite to play. You think a ro is gonna wake his ass up. I mean there's a lot of pros that play these satellites, by the way, like five hundred's one K twenty one

hundred or whatever the heck, the two K one is um. They all play it like they all grind these, a lot of them, you know, trying to win multiple seats, get get some ten k, all that sort of stuff. I don't know if anyone's gonna be waking up at eight am, No, I don't think so. You know, maybe the one pm, okay, I get it, But eight am, you know, probably on the softer side for the satellite. So if you're looking for some satellite value, I guess that would be my suggestion. Although I've never played

one of those satellites, I have no idea if that's actually true. For the coffee bet tomorrow, Tim's got one thousand and twenty five, I have one thousand eighty. Let's go bebe. I mean, that'd be so sick if they get if they clear, if they get right, around twenty five percent of what would be like a record field size through the first two starting days. We know once he's gonna be huge. We know one d's obviously going to be absolutely enormous, so I'm assuming we're gonna get good numbers on

the day twos as well. Yeah, that's also I mentioned that to rim Quid today. I'm gonna be really curious this year to see what sort of late registration numbers we get on Day two A B and Day two ABC and Day two D. So I think Day two D will be the bigger of the two. So Lassia, we had one hundred and forty eight new players on Day two A B. I remember it was a little they changed that, you know, and then the Day two D was five to eleven.

It's quite a big difference between the first day two and the second day two. But yes, without that, we're going to say big numbers on those Day two's jumping in the main event, if you register right at the close of registration, you get what forty bigs, that was sixty bigs whatever, it's it's a super healthy chip stack, like it's not like you're coming in fifteen bigs or whatever it is. You know, and you got a lot of work too. This is like super healthy. So I think a lot

of people are going to take advantage of that family pot. Yeah, all right, let's play the music. I told everyone the story about how my daughter was, you know, redoing her room. You know, she moved the bed. She wanted me to move some some artwork, some paintings, you know this Taylor Swift signed frame thing. I had to patch the hole as well. I made her do some trolls around the house. And instead of me giving her money, she wanted me to buy her Etsy cart.

I was like, okay, how much is it seventy dollars? Old story? No, no, no, it's ay. I've told similar stories, like a very old story. Maybe it was before it was the Amazon cur Yeah, it was a sheen card of someone anyway, So I bought her her Etsy cart. It was a bunch of artwork, so it was all mostly downloadable stuff. We downloaded it and I was going to print it on our nice you know photoprinter here because it was a lot of like nice artwork. And I said, hey, um, I was going to print you

the pictures, but I don't know what you want. One of the things was a hundred pieces of art. Yeah, I want them all. I'm like, well, I don't really want to print them all on our expensive work printer. You know, what are you gonna put him in? And she goes, well, I want to frame him. I just want to stick him on my wall. I'm like, wait, wait, you just wanna what are you gonna stick it on with? She's like, just tape and tape it to the walls. I'm like, you're gonna rip my paint

off. She goes, it's fine, you know I did it last time. It's okay. I'm like, I'm not letting you do that. And she's like she's like getting on mad at me. I'm like, can't you just fine, like a nice frame to put some of this stuff in? She no, I just want to stick it everywhere on the wall. It'll be fine. I just I just walked out. I couldn't handle it. I walked out, jumped in the shower, got in my car, went to work. I'n't haven't brought up with her since. What I want to

say is that fourteen year old girls are very stressful. I mean, I can imagine I got a little girl myself. I can only imagine what it's going to be like. Can't wait. I don't really have much of a family pot. I only just haven't mention that my parents got into town tonight. Haven't seen him yet because I've been here. Um they did, you know. I talked to my mom the other day. She's like, Hey, can you pick us up from the airport? We really really, we

don't really want to take an uber. It's like seventy five dollars. I'm like, yeah, sure, whatever, totally forgetting that. I had commentary and then so I call her today. I'm like, yeah, you gotta drive yourself. She's like, well, can you pay for it? Said, yeah, sure, I'll pay for it. Whatever. Fun, you know. So I can't wait to see that bill when I get home. So much it costs. But they're gonna be with me for a week, leaving on Saturday, so that'll be good to have them in towns. Just

shout out to my parents. I think it's my new thing. I started this last year and this is now the second year in a row. When the main event starts, I'm having my parents come out because that this becomes the busiest time, especially if I want to play that I's be main events. So it's just good to have them out here for this week, even though you didn't get to see him, really, even though I don't get to see him. Yeah, but it's still, you know, I'll see

him. A helper for dating the kids, certainly helpful for the house. My house is a freaking disaster in the summer. Every summer, it's the same thing. I just I don't have time to do anything, time to fold close whatever. Like, yes, my wife could help out, but she's you know, pregnant, so she's working at full time. That was so, you know, and we have a you know, a two year old who's running around like a mad woman. By the way, the two

year old was awake yesterday last night till twelve forty five am. That doesn't sound like it was fine. She didn't take a nap until six pm. Then she woke up from a nap at eight pm and then was a terror for the rest of the sounds like it. I mean, it's like, you know, it's kind of like a given a take because I love it when I get home and she's still awake. Yeah, you know, so that's a great thing. That said, I'm like, you need to go

to fan bet, Like what is going on here? I was talking to um justin, our grand Lord and Savior of the set design, and we're talking about kids. And he was asking me because he he's here for the side of the main event that sorry, the side the World series, and he comes back when we redo the set. He's like, you know, what if your hours being I might kind of get here between like ten and eleven am, kind of leave between midnight and two am, depending on the

day. Gas, Oh my god. Yeah, I don't really see my family that much. You know, my wife acts like a single mother. And I was telling him how like, sometimes I've had a couple days where I've left early, or I had the chance to leave early. I look at my phone, look at my watch, and it says like, you know, eight thirty, and I know that by the time I get home, the kids are already in bed. So it's like, there's no point.

I might as well to stay here, do work and leave it, you know, midnight when traffics die down or whatever, because I'm going home, there's no one's gonna be awake anyway. You probably kind of a little bit similar, but unless you're crazy two year olds waking up staying up at midnight, But yeah, I mean the summer is just a disaster. I have there are just like my clothes are just everywhere, like clean clothes because

I just don't have time to fold them. They're literally every everywhere. I'm like, my mom was like, just give me a list of stuff to do. I'm like, well, I hope you like folding clothes because I have there's crap just everywhere. Yeah, it's just a disaster. I mean, I don't know what. My wife just puts them on the like the dresser, like right next to the bathroom and just leaves them there because I just, yeah, exactly as much easier times. Did you just have time

to grab something and go. That's what you do. You're living at the freaking World Series of Poker, That's what it's Unluckily I waited the same I got nine of these probably about T shirts. I just I don't have to think about it. I just put it on and leave it, leave the house. Its easy, all right, Well that's gonna do it for us. My name is Donnie Peters. His name is Tim Duckworth.
