Nine's baby has two jacks, let's weigh them straight, whatever it takes to continue this robbery, even if you have to match them while he strokes them. 355,000 Chris lets it go, so Eagle, let's finish that boat, those friends on the rail are having fun. Igor has been a professional for nine years from Ukraine. He likes it here in Los Angeles, why not? Especially when you make it to the final tables of the LA Poker Classic. Jackson will be in Mike Lea. He is from Toronto. This time he has Jack. Nine of clubs will arrive. raising to a hundred thousand makes the men raise and eliminate Igor with a pair of threes and he's on the button in position against the chip later, but those are the flops of threes, maybe you can double here, he made the call and a couple are left behind.

It was a two-way

action

Jack's time against a pair of threes and the flop is a Jack nine for all hearts a good flop for Mike has the first two pair Igor has two threes and a flush draw I'll be a weak one Mike is going to making the 120 continuation bet on Igor with just the threes, he has a little heart, but what are he going to do and try to figure out where he is here? 320,000 is the micro bet with two pair, he will simply call without raising and to the discomfort of that man over there, King on the turn, possible straight and possible flush now, so again with more danger, micro data checks, but Igor passes right behind him, whatever heart arises, let's take a look, there is no ace of spades, yes.

Mike isn't going to like that card either because the opponent might now have made aces, maybe he only has two pair. Someone likes his hand, but he didn't want to go crazy with it. Yes, he will pass. Control the size of the boat. Igor passes behind him. Mike, they are. I'm going to take him down with Jackson Nines to increase his chip lead so the 40 year old from Toronto will be in great shape to win his first WPT title and save, keep it up oh there's a beautiful girl Brittany Royal Flush with the beautiful watch of "hits" and those watches extraordinary watches as we like to call them nowadays you get that championship you also get that watch well back in the felt the quick retirement of Peter Mike Lea everything is going his way now that he chose the ace Queen Hannah will move up to 120 Anthony the aunt was the WPT champion now it's Igor's turn and Igor has caught Queen 10, he is in the small blind.

The blinds are up to 30 and 60 and he's going to get fancy with a raise, he reraises with Queen 10 for 380,000 to Chris Chris 4th. Cash from the WPT, but will fold it in my Kalia now the ace queen is one of those hands that is so good procites that I don't want that hand. How many like you are members of the Hall of Fame? How do you like the ace queen? Yes I'm like everyone else, I like it at first until they start raising you and then, almost sitting, it reduces considerably, but you have little poker game, it's pretty good, let's see what Mike Lea does with his here 380, he's going for Bennett. here Vince with an ace queen 680,000 the bet Igor says goodbye what a play by Mike Lee from the vents of him.

I'm telling you, most players would have called that three-bet there with the ace queen if they had played it, no, this is it. The cute girlfriend Cristal in the audience, thumbs up, is the right Cristal, especially for that play. She has 30-foot chips, yes, more than three times as many as anyone else at the table who came in as the chip leader at the start of the files-to-one tables. point six getting beat now Anthony Zeno trying to win back to back WPT titles check this out Mike he has a pair of jacks well he's in last place and something happened to get back in the hunt here he's got a good hand. here he goes to compete, 125,000 left, he calls and Kris leads and now Peter Neff, the local, no, he has a pair of eights, well, how do you play middle pairs when someone raised in front of you?

That is the big question that arises. at 330 Mike back in the ant there are no speeders a pretty solid player advanced but he has aces kings or queens good luck to him these are the two shortstacks on the table at this point the aunt will take out her tentacles yes she does. I'm going all in and a good call from Peter Neff, so Anthony has it with jacks dominated versus eight, the best pot you can be in before the flop, a hand that is correct, so a dominant favor here is that Anthony Zeno doubles up, should win this pot to keep his hopes alive of winning a third WPT title tonight, but he can't be in better shape than this pair over pair preflop, all the money, so the two shortstacks in a battle right now, here we go to the first three. when the flop is 10 10 7 that's good for the ant so far the two jacks are in front I like to hear Peter Neff looking for a snowman here to give him a full house, he's in a desperate situation right now turn card, let's see If something magical happens now 5 of swords, well, we're in the river.

Peter Neff must catch an eighth to win this pot, otherwise Anthony Zeno will double the older wets, even worse than a suit, yes there is some OTT sub from one of his friends. beating Anthony, he himself is a good poker game, Anthony Zeno, with a gigantic chance to double, he will do it, sometime you will get a jack, Jack, okay, that's good for the ant, that's where Anthony Zeno told me What has been lucky in this continuous streak of winning the money is that when he gets his money with the best hand, he falls behind. Yes, he understands that people come out tied all the time, but he said that it just hasn't happened to me, there It's where my luck really shined in this streak this season. and that hand is going to devastate Peter Neff, who is below 600,000 and moves on to the next hand.

Igor with a quick fold Chris Claud Nicky has a king Jack and will move it to 1:30 to go to Peter this time. with ace, queen of diamonds, put it all in my clearing account please, and you know, now with a king, queen of spades, this is very playable at this point, we go and he goes all in. Wow, save me, Chris comes out and they take turns. raise the cards Anthony is returning the

action

to Peter Peter with the ace queen of diamonds there is that magic ace queen again let's see if he wins again well Peter has him dominated now as we say and on top of Anthony's problems we saw Chris or a king away so Peter is in very good shape now let's see if it works here we go with the flop and the flop is a Jack 10 7 well the crowd is complaining because they see Anthony xenoka now win the pot if an ace or an nine. above he must catch us directly to win the pot, let's see if he can do it.

He passed to the turn. He can't miss the boat. I could tie it if a king comes up. Wow, what bad luck for Peter and F, they are on that shift. card wow, what a river card, the card that appears here is so surprised. Wow, that's the right word, move on, no doubt, very bad luck for Peter Neff, let's see what happens in the river. Here it comes when you catch all the tournaments. Appears We're going from consecutive titles, we're down to four fights, another player leaves here and that's Peter, he collects 250,000, he came to talk to Matt Savage Peter, you came here with over two million in chips and things don't work out how do you want tonight, well yeah, I lost in every way, almost eights against jacks, we have to play solo and ace, queen against king, the queen was just unlucky, there's not much I can do anywhere else, but Jack played pretty well.

I'm happy we played well, we had a great week, a quarter of a million dollars, congratulations, thank you, so with Peter Neff in fifth place, we are down to just four players in the LA Poker Classic here at Commerce Casino, the game will continue right after this episode tonight. sponsored by you blows the official clock of the World Poker Tour welcome back to the World Poker Tour as the four Commerce Casino players remain michaelia very much in front with over eight point eight million Chris Clyde Nikki in second place with just over 2.9 million antennas II knows on his heels and the Ukrainian Igor in fourth place right now in the short stack looks down at a pair of nines he started the final table as the chip leader he has dissolved his stack of chips and now with the nines he makes a 125 to go but right behind him Chris with a raise with ace-queen which is a triple bet here for Chris Mike came out 300,000 ago ant walks away and Igor will do it I would be surprised if they didn't just send him yeah see he is I'm going to push yes it's Chris' decision so this hand played itself it's a classic race Igor must win the race to stay alive two nines for Igor ace Queen for Chris Igor chef's tight key 29 on the ropes right now he has friends here still have hope, let's take a look at the flop with a queen.

Jack helps bid on Eagle. Igor flopped. Chris was in front with two queens. Now Eagle, we're looking for a nine or a ten, unless he was my one time, a tough flop. a good sports ego needs to get lucky now that he has made three nines and with that card his opponent must catch a 10 to tie they would split the pot if a 10 comes up Igor cannot lose the pot, he can take it or tie it, wow, what a difference, the one card turn leaves your opponent in very bad shape and now you are desperate to try and get tired of this hand, very disappointed Chris, we are going to the river so Igor will win that pot to double up. stay alive and the Jolly Ukrainian sit back down it's like they're on laughing gas here tonight just enjoying this great event route there man back to work Igor back to work everyone is going left fighting for this title in the ant swims, the hand's ego is going to take a break now Chris Cloud Nicky, now in fourth chip position, picks up a pair of threes here and will just limp in and call and we'll see if Michael Lea will get aggressive taking all the chips no you see a flop it's just king six no raise on this one here we go flop comes seven four two so cars like Chris in front with his two 3's he's going to check Mike now with nothing it's 75,000 you may think that the king has the best hand after his opponent checked, but I warned him about that a little bit now, yeah, Chris called, we'll go on the turn, it's a ten of hearts exchange, there's nothing and Chris checks again .

Mike will continue betting with nothing. 150 Chris a. a bit strong from the last hand, good decision by Chris, yes, strong enough to lead, although the river card is a nine, does it help any of the players, so yes, actually, Chris again checks well , could I raise the white flag and just say I tried? I'm done with Mike King high, no, he has to keep betting 200,000 and now Chris, with the three, never raises and never finds out where he is. You have many expired cards. Do you call another 200 when you know in this short stack that's a tough call here saponin bet the flop the turn and now the river you only have two threes or you can beat like a bluff oh he doesn't care he'll make the good call played solid from Chris and Mike shows that their Qinghai sounds very well done by Chris Club Nikki taking the pot with a measly pair of threes well done, well, you know, Mike, so many players from all over the world showed up this week at Commerce Casino, which shows how global sports poker really is and that's why.

Nicky took off his jacket and will limp in and make the call to Michaelia's chip leader, he has a pretty decent East nine, but he's not going to limp, he's going to raise, he's two hundred thousand, yeah, press the victim Chris with only Jack eight that's going to take. a stab, he's going to upload it. Wow, he limped in now, suddenly he picked it up with this hand, there's four seventy-five to go and This nine at this point is shrinking a little bit, breaking through the closed fence, he says some guy's gone now. he's suddenly raising so he was trapping you, yeah, at least that's what you're thinking if you're sitting there, but that's not going to stop Michaelia, he's gone all in, what a play by Mike Lea, oh . boy this is mind over mind trap upon trap there are no fools at this table michaelia our very impressive chip leader with that push extends the chip lead four players are betting here at the Commerce Casino stay with us we will be back for more information on the World Poker Tour, this episode of the World Poker Tour is sponsored in part by draftkings.

He raises his two hundred thousand to the ant who has a pretty decent pair of sixes. Pairs are big hands when he plants face up, which is what they're doing here and he just sends it if you can beat this hand, good luck to you, he'll just take it down right there Mike comes out, yeah, and a guy came from the nothing to boost these top poker players in the world. Well, that's Anthony's first WPT title, you know, one that Vanessa, one of the best players in the world, played against. he's heading for the title when she had the chip lead he came back and won that title he said that gave me confidence going into this season now it's cash money seven times going for back to back titles again just amazing right on this hand Mike Lea has raised to xeno and Igor, Chris is calling with ten eights so Mike with Jack takes over and the flop is a Jack for five against a pair for Mike Lee, oh boy how good is this guy running right now, he flops two pair here , Chris is.

I'm going to check, Chris has nothing and Mike alia adding two pair on the flop will make the continuation bet a hundred thousand and oh Chris, what are you doing? He's going to raise, advance the three hundred thousand without a hand, without a draw, just trying to make a move, but. It's not going to work here because Mike has two pair, you know Mike is going to raise again, he makes 550 to call, well Chris has to know the jig is here, he tried it trying to raise on the flop to win. but he just says to himself, wow, this guy has a hand every time it happens here, yeah, he has to make it clear.

He receives the message. Mike alia, once again, taking a pot. Mike, forty years old, from Toronto, Canada. Things are going well. for him tonight Chris with the big migraine puts his hands on his head like a vice he has nothing ten five take a break now Mike with the six five is having fun right now so he's going to turn everything up right now ago 160,000 the ant comes out but echo likes the action with the king seven makes the call king 7 against six five well, they come six high here just a great flop for Mike he has top pair with a straight shot draw Igor has checked Mike is going to get fat yes That was a hundred thousand ago, with King high, the eagle will stay, although he will only be called if King high, the turn card is a big ace.

Neither player will go crazy with that mm-hmm card, the core passes it and Mike will slow down the river card. it's a three and that's going to take us right to Mike other things just amazing what the Accords have nothing just King high oh wait wait a second I'll just bet here in case your opponent flops a small pair can come out now yes 225 sir. The problem is that he flopped the pair, but he also flopped the gut shot, the straight draw and he just got it, it's not going anywhere except up in the 625 pot, now the bet is trying to cause some pain to Ukraine and Igor Now, how are you coming? one of those little skate patches here disappears and finally does.

My eclair will win another part of the Canadian more than 10 million chips. I'm so close to becoming WPT champion. Well, it's great poker here in Los Angeles. There are a lot of good players here, including one of our own. The WPTs to follow this season, let's take a look. Strollers Daniel I grew up in Torrance, right next to the beach in Southern California, the best thing about poker is that I can be my own boss, it gives you freedom, it's a challenge, it's evolving even when I'm not playing poker. I'm thinking about it or discussing it with friends.

I think what separates me is my heart, like I make some moves that a lot of people would be too afraid of, which can be a good thing and a bad thing, it's definitely backfired at times.

Welcome back to Los Angeles and it's a BPT yes we are at the Commerce Casino one of the most exciting events of the year the LAPC continues and michaelia from Canada with over ten point seven million in chips yes Mike Lea is crushing this final table right now, it has everyone. where he wants it all in the short stack, he has the giant stack, he can push it at will.

Igor and Chris Claude Nicky has landed a big hand with a pair of kings and will receive $1,000 added to his draftkings account, courtesy of draft kings. and when he gets pocket kings at a World Poker Tour final table he is rewarded, now Chris is also looking to win the pot, he has raised the rage to 160 and Michael Lea has a six and Mike is going to make a triple bet, well, Mike, hey. just laying them all out is what he's doing, yeah, and Chris is going to make the call here, new Chris, one of these was the short stack at the table, I thought maybe the pressure might push him out, but right now he's reconsidering.

What did. I'd love to. he flops an ace and knocks out Chris, of course an ace will appear. Do you know what jack 8 and two is good for Chris? Chris is very much in front with the two kings now with two to go. Six of hearts on the turn. Wow, he gives her two. more outs, I'm talking about Mike Lake and that, the pot with a six or an ace, why can't Jeff Ace King go to the river? Ten of Clubs Chris Cloud Nicky, the New Jersey pro now living at Southern Cal Up Chris is an interesting Roland, could be a big headache.

I would love for him to come out or at least so I don't have to worry about him getting chips and testing me. I tried to delete it. Mike didn't work out, man, he didn't leave Canada. Okay, I felt like Igor would fold quickly with a suited connector. Chris also came out and now Mike Lea with Queen three and he's going up to 200,000 here with this Queen. three off suit now and put the queen jack is in the big blind and he will make this call well since the jacks meet anthony hasn't dominated let's look at this flop and it's a queen seven eight which is great for ant .

Surely both players have top pair on the flop. This could spell more disaster for Mike Lea. Oh yeah, he raised before the flop without really anything. You got your top pair. You think you're in good shape, but he'll bet 135 on the ant he's going to beat. look how deep the sleight of hand goes Anthony zo was born and raised in Cranston Rhode Island he is 33 years old and going to grow up earned a degree in chemical engineering then went to law school passed the Massachusetts Bar then became a poker pro is 375 short now Mike makes an up Hill Wow, he's going to pop again, it's a total of 755 and the chicks are going all in, that's another million or so for Mike Lee on a call, but he call with the two queens, yeah, maybe put the aunt on a four flush blunder because right now it adds a great doubling spot.

How about a seven on the turn? It's okay for me and it's easy, not always, where is the stick on the table? You can see it well. He says poker players should have some class. He must love this position. Crystal meets her men. I need help here the last group doubled Chris Cloud Nicky this group could double Anthony xeno six on the turn won't help Mike leo so the only way Mike alia can win this pot is to catch a three, nothing else will do, the kicker is I'm going to play whatever else comes up so Anthony is really in good shape to double up here looking good on the last card as a PF club like that, Anthony Zeno has been at this point pretty much most of this final table every Once you choose a place, it's the right place, it doubles again, how do you always get it?

So good luck this season, Royal Caribbean International, the royal flash of bonus prizes, players getting a Royal Flush, a cruise for two to join WPT on our next cruise we go on. For WPT leisurely cruise, we are here at Commerce Casino for LA PC and as you know Commerce is known for their cash games so we took some time out of the tournament to jump into a cash game and see if we could beat these guys. They already shot, man, they think she's a dumb girl, oh, what she did was an impersonation? Yeah, I think it was solid - my girl Brittany made fun of me here and then broke down, okay though, the blinds are going up to 50 and 100 before 15k as my fourth, which gave poker a quick hit of Chris and it's against Mike Lea.

I lost about 30% of his chips in the last few hands, but he raised with nine, six, makes 200,000, golden ant is gone. Mike Lee is going to take this pot, he is going to stop the bleeding a little right there, taking the blinds and Annie's after consecutively doubling his opponents at this table. Mike Lea from Canada this time too. with a 9 6 of clubs, we will raise again to 200,000 and we will come out eager and see what Chris does with a jack 10 that he will call, he will learn to play poker with his brother, it has paid off in a big way, he has made millions in the game , let's see. if he's lucky on this flop it's a king queen 8 open for Chris check, check and no cb for Mike he also checks 7 on the turn now Mike Lee also has some sort of open straight but Chris is going to try to take the control, that's 325.

Mike's not going to get aggressive just calling, we're going to the river here and the pair of sevens on the board isn't helping any of these guys check well Chris chicks, the only way Mike wins the El pot is for Bluff, if he does he might succeed here Vincent, he's doing it, he's not checking a 475,000 bet and I just don't know how you call here with Jack events, how could the guy call you on the turn where you have? the best hand here after he raised preflop just doesn't make sense, you could raise him, it's the only chance you have to win the pot, you're never going to call with this hand in this spot, what a second, he's.

That's what his name is, Mike calls him Wow, I'm shocked, yeah, call him Jack, Hi Vince, he won the pot with Jack, Hi, who is this guy? Well, Michael II, I can't believe it, don't go, there's more action to come. Los Angeles, plus in-depth poker analysis as the liberties break it down in line. Why just watch the World Poker Tour on TV when you can participate in the game for free? That's right, visit club wapt.com today and find out how you can do it. win an entry into a WPT WPT tournament club quiet never lose a penny playing poker guaranteed Harvie will use these tournaments help seen a good number of interesting places and tonight is no different always ready to give us his two cents relieve our own Tony Dunst in tonight's raw deal edition tournament watching a good hero call is one of the best moments in televised poker when viewers were sitting looking at a guy with nothing and wondering why the hell he's thinking about making a call of correct hero that can be quite surprising like Chris's.

Claude Nikki just made a high jack against my clear, so why the hell did he call? Let's analyze it. Everything is normal preflop. Mike raises with nine sixes suited on the button and Chris defends in the big blind with jack ten action on the flop. It's pretty standard: Chris checks out of position and Mike checks behind with a weak hand that has backdoor draws, the turn brings a seven of hearts that adds a flush draw and more straight draws to the board. Chris leads with his Broadway project and Mike pays. With his nine high straight draw, the river loses everything when he brings up the seven of diamonds.

Chris knows that if he bets all of Mike's hands with showdown value, we will call him, so there is no point in betting himself. Chris checks and when Mike bets. position Chris decides that Mike is more likely to have a Miss draw like hearts nine ten nine six or six five than a hand he bets for value, it doesn't even take longso much and throws his call into the pot, everyone is shocked when the hands are revealed and even Mike can't hide his smile, the only one who isn't amazed is Chris, who knows exactly why the hell he called Tony nicely.

It's hard to call the eventual Jack. I believe it when I tell you what a great play by Chris Clyde. Nikki, there's the guy. He is a real poker player and now Mike Alia is down to 5.9, he is still the chip leader, although he blinds at 5100. Let's go to the feeling that there is actually no WPT champion, Anthony Zeno, ace for I think , a first third of WPT titles tonight, including back-to-back wins. in the World Poker Tour it was raised by Yegor leaving Chris out and now Mike other things with a pair of threes yes, he is going to make the call, so a pair of threes against the ant with h4 let's see who is lucky eight seven deuces no, Mike Keep going ahead, but he's going to pass and we're going to continue with the ant.

No, he slows down and checks now because he leads, so Mike has to put Anthony in with two big cards. I have to think that three is the best hand here after your opponent checked on the flop. he's going to bet 350,000 before now who just made two fours let's see what he's going to do with him he's going to make the call pots the building goes to the river and the river card is an ace giving a season fours there to the ant Mike now he is afraid of his The opponent made, in the worst case, two aces, if not. a flush I can't imagine he's going to go too crazy with two threes now he doesn't pass them now he'll make the ant his little value bet no, the bees are going to peak well, it's going to check check the contents to take the pot with aces and fours only I didn't want to get checked raised in cases where my opponent got a flush on the river for the street and that It's the patience Anthony Zeno showed earlier at this final table and it's certainly paying dividends now that he's closing in on the chip lead he's played for. pretty good, very stable, let's go back to what I felt: Igor can't raise his hands, he has gone the wrong way and falls.

Chris also gets out of the way and now Mike Lea, who has three years in the small blind, the Canadian will do it. gets to 50 to go can't blame him for raising with one side of the small blind Anthony calls with ace two the flop comes King Jack a two hearts helps none of us players Mike doesn't make the continuation bet checks to Anthony now goes to look for chips to bet here, okay, there you go and he makes it just a hundred and fifty thousand, just under 25 percent of the pot, but he's just trying to figure out where he is and he's good enough to do the job. the rubber tree plant is doing well it's a new chip leader we have and we conclude our second hour of coverage at the Poker Classic please join us next time as we crown another champion at the Casino Mike Sexton Vince Van Patten Tony Dunst Matt Savage the Royal Flush girls and everyone in the world / katoa I'm Lynn Gilmartin see you next time at the WPT sandwiches for the World Poker Tour is sponsored by Club wapt.com never lose a penny playing poker guaranteed we are back with more WBZ coverage of The Poker Classic like a million dollars, this time it's been five most of this final table, every time you pick a spot, it's the right spot.

Los Angeles is often called the city of dreams and tonight the poker players' dream will come. right, hello everyone, welcome to the World Poker Tour. I'm Lin Gilmartin. We come from Commerce Casino, where after six action-packed days of poker and a field of over 500 players, we are very close to crowning the next WPT champion. Leading the action tonight is Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten, gentlemen, who do you think has the best chance of a Hollywood ending? Well LAN, I'm not sure it's a Hollywood ending, no matter who wins this tournament, these are truly top notch. professional players fighting for this title obviously a bit of poker history potentially tonight if Anthony Xena took this title he would tie with Gus Hansen and Carlos Mortensen as the winningest player in World Poker Tour history and would also win back to - We return to events for the second time in tour history that this has happened who will cross the finish line with the title.

I'll tell you, folks, you don't want to miss this one. These guys are players, they're certainly Lin and you know, we're in Los Angeles, we're very close to Hollywood and usually in Hollywood we have crazy, wild endings and this could be because Anthony is... I know his name is ant and Ants can push 30 times their own weight and that is what we are going to have to do, can he do it? We'll see guys, only one of them can win, so who will it be? Let's go back to the table and find out. There you see the chip count of the chipmunk, Anthony Zeno, our chip leader, who now has almost 5.6 million.

The winner tonight takes home over $1 million and a WPT title. Alright. Aunt's 15,000 blinds. 50 and 100. Let's start with this. Anthony Zeno, the ant, lands a pretty strong East Jack of Diamonds. I love that it goes up to 200,000. Igor Euros Chef Key, I'm not doing it. plays Chris doesn't play Mike Lea he looks at an ace 5 and is going to make the call you know Mike is from Canada 40 years tough poker pro and he would say it's Jack vs. ace 5 and the flop is 9 9 6, he's going to check, Anthony is ahead right now with the ACE Jack, he's going to make a continuation bet of 100,000 into a pot that has a little over 500,000, so it's not a big bet here and Mike is going to make the call on turn 7, my sons. do it inside the straight draw, that's all, either player has a pair, but Mike is going to go with maybe a bat at 25.

I'm just wondering if that little bet, the minimum bet allowed on the flop by Anthony Xeno, I could have alerted Mike. I don't have much to try to take the pot there with that man bet, so he'll bet the turn here and it works, he'll get something to leave a better hand, boy, the ant gets sprayed right there. Mike, everything, very well done. alright, next hand, eager euro chefs key, he started this final table as the chip leader, everything was going his way, but he just went the wrong way, but he's still involved, he'll quickly fold your hand.

Now Chris will also face Mike Lea and he will lift him with just one jack juice makes 252 go after him the ant with king 9 does not want to participate in it it is in consecutive hands Mike he is betting forces Anthony Zeno to leave the best hand I ever wrestled In high school I went to national championships and would probably have a good shot at going to the Olympics if I continued with that as I got older and couldn't play competitive sports. Poker filled that void that gave me that, you know. The opportunity to compete in that competitive feeling that sports used to do filled that void in my life as I grew up.

I always want to win, so it helps me want to be the best and improve my game, yes. The good thing about not being a fighter, now you don't have to eat that bird seed diet. I can perform in wrestling roles, now you can follow poker diets. We know what that is. Why are you looking at me when? You said this, okay, blinds of fifty and one hundred, here we go, four players fighting for over a million here tonight. Chris Claude Nikki looks at his hand and courtesy of the draftkings camera we see that Chris has a tennis ball with decent hands in a four handed game. poker game is going to go up makes 200,000 missing Mike Lea gets out of the way and the ant now with a pair of nines is going to make a triple bet here with the two nines makes 450,000 makes Igor's euro chef's key go out now Chris is I'm going to call this with ten of spades, here we go, the flop comes jack 10 3, so Chris took the lead with two actions of tens on Anthony and checks.

Chris passes right behind him. 6 of clubs comes out of anything he will probably think of the two knives of him. are good because his opponent didn't bet on the flop, I will never give him credit for a flush, he would be better off flopping a flush draw, so Anthony is going to bid 425k, Chris isn't going anywhere and makes good decision going down to the river. five of diamonds doesn't change anything Anthony with only nines, he'll slow down and check, they both check Chris's two tens will win this pot, yeah he's an east coast guy born in New Jersey, lived there but now he's in Solano Beach, California, has to be I love a lifestyle here in California, good player.

I'm here with James Fisher, who held off tens of thousands of players to win the wapt.com club's way to the Fiat finals and a new 2015 Fiat 500 Abarth automatic that is incredible.

We go back to these four girls who are up to 20,000 blinds, so 6120 Anthony with another pair of 9s. Mike, yeah, two nines and consecutive hands that he lost the last time he had it and he'll raise it to 250 and get out. Olin and Chris say it's all in, just king/queen, what a move, okay Mike, other stuff, Anthony has it covered in chipcount, but it still cost him like 2.4 million more to make the call. I thought Mike had cars all this time, oh my god.

Mike you know how the letters are, I'm so sorry guys I thought I was waiting I'm like he took my call I'm sorry Chris yeah I was waiting for Mike oh boy maybe there was a slow crawl he He knows that aunt would never do that. It turned out that the cards were in a race situation, although well, Chris scratched Nikki. Tournament life is at stake here. Wow, you know, when this body gets the chips back, it leads the flop with 76, three nines in front and there will be three players left, there is God. Nicky needs some paint looking for a king or queen here turn the 8 of Spades card to the river tough poker pro mixed game cash player needs help can he get it?

Chris played Knick is Spike that king on the river to win this pot so Anthony Zeno took a hit by tying on the river, which was a race situation from the start, no matter if it came on the flop or the river , but late is more painful on the river, that is surely just burying.

Nicky with those doubled moves in second chip position with 5.8 million. In it he has twenty thousand blind 6120, let's go to the sense Zeno seems citizen and attractive a seven of clubs with short stacks messy only has a boom of less than nine hundred thousand so he will send it here I don't blame myself, I could do it with you. Chris outlets I call Oh Mike has a great hand for king queen of clubs making a call and the aunt has a good chance that there is a good favorite to double life on him in poker at the LAPC.

It's in play right now, how do you find that hand? Mike knows he would have been desperate. He can come down with any two cards. Farzin exchanged that against the lawyer. Very kind. You will remember the last pot that Anthony lost when he had two knives against a king and one time, when Chris gave him a king in the river and a card saved for the game of aunts, we are in the river and again Anthony Zeno has to dodge a king or a queen, you didn't do it last time, can you do it this time?

Scary as hell. of spades looks like a sick man the players love to be afraid but they win and the river card will be a check we call Jackie he takes the jack Wow, the answer stretching out those tentacles I have to take this one okay you know it's fun when you win all the wvz, so last season I won the Borgata, it was amazing, but this season has been pretty amazing. I went in saying I would play as many advanced players as I could and see if maybe I could win another one. This is my seventh cache. which is a tie with byron kaverman for most caches duringa single season, so that feat is already something to be very proud of.

The fact that I won Falls View was incredible and honestly, statistically unexpected, to back it up with another final table. In perhaps the most prestigious event of the WPT season I feel incredible. The place I am now is literally a dream. I wake up every day not quite sure if I've been dreaming or if that's really what's happening. It was great. He is quite a guy, the former lawyer loves poker, now he has made a plan to make his fortune and is very respected. It's always nice to see him do so well. He's going for back-to-back titles, which is pretty impressive. 3 wins if he won tonight with time. with Gus Hansen and Carlos Mortensen as the winningest players in WPT history, but we still have a long way to go.

Would we go Mike with the King Eight of Diamonds running and that's a considerable increase two million ago, the ant goes out now Eeyore? The era of the chefs is key now with king queen and they push him with everything, they have Mike involved here in a very good situation, again Mike finds himself dominant, the money is in the pot. Igor here, chefs want a great place to duplicate this. It's going to implode, you know, I mentioned, I know Noah Schwartz and it's about talking to Anthony Zeno here, let's go to the flop. He's in a 7-7 Igor, do you look good?

This would take a big chunk out of Mike Leah, okay, there's Igor. his group just spread a couple more cards, they saw Selma take a hit, he's in front, just amazing while the cars lie, Igor must now catch a queen in the river or he'll be eliminated in fourth place, oh that's a horror letter the turn Igor can't believe it oh boy going to the river now it's Igor who is the oldest and it's not going to happen jack of spades in the river so anxious on the part of Ukraine taking a horrible beach to be knocked out in fourth place In this program , Igor does Frankenstein going home to see his teacher, he's going to win 333,000 and he comes to talk to Matt Savage.

You are a great tournament. You have all your friends here behind you from Ukraine. Lots of ups and downs tonight. Started as chip leader. What happened? I think I know a mistake. Alright. I think you made a mistake. What mistake? Do you think you meant he is mine? I have to back off, but yeah, that guy's right. I think he maybe he loved you, swallow me up. I knew it, well, three very tough players, you played very well, everyone waiting and obviously I would come with your friends behind you. You know it was a great tournament for many of you, you did very well, so congratulations, thank you, we are one step closer to crowning a new WPT championship.

Our dinner in heaven with the elimination of Igor. Find out who it will be when we return to the WPT tonight. The episode is sponsored by you. The official watch of the World Poker Tour is welcome back to WP teams. Coverage of the LA Parker classic is waiting at command headquarters. Tony Dunst is ready to give us his take on tonight's edition of the Raw Deal. It seems like every year in poker some players hustle tremendously and quickly rack up big scores, but what accounts for these miracle Russians are the players who experience how they take their game to the next level or simply outrun everyone else.

Let's look at this when Darren Elias won back-to-back events earlier in the season. I thought he was a lock for Player of the Year, but then Anthony Zeno cashed seven of the nine events he played and made our final table here tonight in Commerce What you'll notice about the guys who have the biggest rushes is that they're usually Skilled players, they are guys who repeatedly position themselves to be recipients of good fortune through their good play, but it's not just skill that explains Russia's statistics. There is an old prop that Amarillo Slim liked to play with in the past.

He would go to a party and bet someone there that if they asked 30 people in the room, two of them would share the same birthday, seemed like a pretty good bet. If the odds of two people falling on the same day with 365 in the year were quite good, it turns out that it is not thirty chances of getting one and 365 right, it is thirty chances of getting it right on any of the birthdays that have been mentioned, which If you ask each person what the real probability is that 30 people share a birthday greater than 70% and what does that have to do with Russia in poker, it is that many skilled players participated in tons of events and some of them experienced the best result.

A small sample of tournaments If there are 500 professionals participating in 50 tournaments over the course of a year, it is very likely that a couple of them have experienced exceptional results, of course, none of this is intended to detract from the achievements of the players who I mentioned. I just really want to be the guy who's in a hurry, by the way, you know, Tony, that's what I really have the same birthday, so there you go, Yellow, those two guys that Yellow were put in the same room and Belle, all correct actions earned $25,000. an e75 150 now Mike alias with nine and seven has raised to three hundred thousand, as you know, behind them with a queen jack, yes, he likes his hand, the doctor is going to raise his call, he just stole, reaching a big price to match, now you have the same suit. connector, so he will play too, we have a three way action family pot, here comes the first three thinking about Jack Zozi, Jack no hitter, but there are two spades that give a four flush to Mike alia.

Wow, Mike Leo will make a 375 bet and Zeno. with kings and jacks and he is going to put all the chips Chris comes out and a quick call from Mike Alia, who is the fourth, gives us the opportunity to knock out a two-time WPT champion and that is the ant that Mike Lea is now looking for a sword to make the flush two runners to make a consecutive run sevens 209 but needs help to eliminate Anthony Ino came like can you come here again no it's the fighter against the crowd of lawyers standing up and let's go to the turn Can your hands go up ?

It's a seven, well, that matches the microphone, so he can win the pot with a seven or a spade, since you might not be looking to draw, you guys, let me know what happened. He is still a very good favorite to make. this work but he can't look here he comes the river card is a nine of diamonds the ant has done it his hand is raised don't count this guy off the fence every time he's all in he wins a pot oh he has to do it be so excited I don't know what's going on for a second WPT title and back-to-back events his third WPT title overall there's a time to lead Gus Hansen and Carlos Mortensen Chris with the queen seven of clubs will blow him up 325 to go Mike Lea with a jack ten of clubs very decent he'll just call and now he's at zero he's got a nine six of diamonds no he might want to play here too and play DD he's moving in veterans yeah he's squeezing here. as we say quick full by Chris just hoping against hope that Mike doesn't have a real hand and the wrestler can't compete, he'll take a break, throws the hand in at the perfect time for a squeeze move and it was executed to perfection, his events by Anthony Zeno, yes, it was having the guts to pull the trigger so late in the game when he just folded before the ant gave him back the action, very impressive.

Chris and just paid with Jackie and now Michaela with the real hand, 10 years. and will raise this at 5:25 to enter, ant man looks at a pair of sevens, a nice middle pair, yes, he has the two clubs that Chris left there, come on, Leah raised and now Athena xenos wins those 1.9 million that Chris gets. out of the way that fell, Mike Lee is going to say everything and of course against the cold, friend Zeno, my favorite hand, so another race situation here is the big one, Anthony, let's make everyone spin with 6 fingers like a wind, just run.

He will be a great chip leader playing heads-up for the title. If he loses it, there will still be 3 and Mike Lee will be in third position in chips and the flop is a king five deuces. No luck for Mike, aka, Jackie, diamonds or queen of diamonds. TV street to raise is a queen of diamonds this gives michaelia a straight draw and flush as well as two top cards anthony xeno certainly knows it's never easy and this is one of those times when nathan has to dodge a sanjac a 10 or a diamond this guy just doesn't lose the pot when he's old and Anthony Zeno wins the race to double up and take the chip lead with three remaining no one can crush the ant the ant survived three players left Anthony is our chip leader in the cash games going here are amazing, I mean they have everything from low stakes to the highest stakes that anyone in the world could come here and find a game they are comfortable with which is great.

I have been playing tournaments and I will stay. Here at Commerce the rooms are nice, they are renovated and you can walk out of the tournament room. You can be in your room in two minutes. You know, have some snacks. Just lie down on your bed and get some rest. I returned to the elevator and will return to the tournament room in two minutes. My experience here. Everything has been fantastic. We're back here at the Commerce Casino in Los Angeles. Three players fighting for this championship here tonight and their Ino leading the way. 7.2 million from Mike Lee. and second with 4.7 Chris Cloud Nikki with 4.1 in third place at the moment offensive the cream has resisted to the top these three guys are poker players action on Chris Claude Nikki has the king three, he will raise it to 325 to go Mike alia comes out and now the chick with ace for making the call and the flop comes King eight seven good flop, so Chris Claude Nikki has top pair on the flop, but Xena was going to try to take control of this and comes out with a bet of 525, something you don't see. often when a guy needs to raise before the flop, Chris is going to make the call going to the turn six of clubs, no way to get straight out now, Anthony checks, has a straight shot, straight, draw, checks, Chris checks right behind of him, he does not want to pass.

Raise this pot now an ace comes up, you give Anthony the best hand with two aces, what a magic card there is for the ant and he's going to bet, try to cause Chris some pain, it seems like 700 grand if you're sitting in Chris' seat. The guy didn't raise preflop so you know he doesn't have a big ace that he let out on the preflop raise so you can't really put him in a whisper here, the way the betting has gone on this hand is called curiosity. by Chris and you're not going to like it when Anthony shows the two aces right now Chris talking to himself seems like I missed playing him on all the streets after the flop.

I didn't raise him on the flop. I walked on the turn and then called on the river three strikes in a row boom boom boom at this stage of the season 13 two players are distancing themselves from the pack early you ruin the WPT Player of the Year race a quick look at the leaderboard shows Darren Elias sitting comfortably in second position as he added to his points total with a cache here at LAPC, but fresh off his win at the Fallsway Poker Classic, Anthony Zeno has extended his points allowance with his appearance in this final table.

It's not yet known how big Anthony's upside will be. To be determined and we'll keep you updated on the standings as we enter the home stretch of the season, the news action is set to resume here at Commerce Casino, so let's get back to the table. Mike alia looks at a worthless hand and won't play that mess. now auntie couldn't look at his hand and he's got a pair of sixes here and he's going to say everything basically putting Chris all in Wow King Jack of Hearts oh yeah it's hard to leave this bates very guilty it's about 2.6 million but it's still hard to lie down here No, you have to accept that and he has, well, we are in a race, we are talking about trying to compete with someone over the last few months here on the World Poker Tour.

Anthony Zeno would be the last one you would want to compete with for your life in the tournament because he is performing so well where he wins the kind of key pots from him. Chris would love to get here right now and double up, if he does that you're out of here. we'll be in the heads-up action here comes the two five three two which is good for Zito Christian got hit on that flop now Chris will have to catch the stolen kangaroo it's five nothing else will do to get on the turn the turn The card is a ten of clubs and it doesn't help Chris Klug either Nikki, well Chris was in this shape once before you had to catch a king or queen in the river to stay alive, now he has to catch a king or a jack, does he?

No? to do it again just impossible, this would be crazy if I did it, falling with them for Chris in big trouble right now, so you know, you can't look, okay, the punch is good, everything goes to the river, It's a party, well, that's going to work. it's for Chris cloud Nikki one of the most respected high stakes cash game players in the world comes out tonight in third place wins a key race the guy is amazing Vince plays Chris has to take off with a good 51,000 has come to talk to Matt Savage Chris Fue Quite a tough night tonight, you overcame a lot in this tournament to get to third place and start off with a small stack.

How do you buy your game today? I was very happy, I wantThat is to say, I just pushed it for as long as possible. as I could and in the end it just wasn't that way for me, well he obviously said he would be happy with third place or better, are you happy? Only the last two players remain here in The Cooker Classic when we return Anthony Zenor and Mike Leo Bulgar face to face for the money and the title. You do not want to miss it.

The head-to-head battle is about to begin at the Commerce Casino between the girls Mike Alia and Anthony Zenor Royal Flush. Britney and tuba have taken out the money these two are playing for. Listen to an incredible pair of Munster headphones and an impressive watch that will be awarded to tonight's champion before the game begins and watch the conversation I had with both players. Mike, yeah, can you stop? the rush, oh I'm sure I'll try, you've had a lot of experience in tournaments like this, how will that help you tonight?

I don't want to say it because after listening, I'm just going to play my game and then I won't. the best thing I've ever done to beat Anthony, it's an amazing thing that we're here again, you know, Lynn, I mean, yeah, literally two weeks ago we were in Niagara and you know, obviously, I'm playing well or I worked hard on a lot of things. , but there are many players doing the same thing and this is statistically unlikely. I mean, it's like making two final tables in a row and having the opportunity to play head-to-head for a third trophy in a year and a half.

I feel like I'm drowning thinking about it and it's incredible and you know, I feel very, very proud, you see the chip counters and the heads-up poker begins Anthony Xena very much in front with 11.5 million Mike Lea with 4, 6 million winners I'll take home over a million the runner up just over 700 pounds lawyer against the fighter let's get to it Anthony's you know look down to date in seven of hearts you know it rises well Anthony's going to hit 300 ago let the men raise Mike leah is 10-5, he is suited, he has invested and will make this call. his defender wants to see a flop.

Here comes a six, six, so help either player and check, check to the turn, it's a 10, so they served. now there are tens as the cars meet, it's a split pot Mike checks and Anthony is now going to hit 200,000 Mike is going to make the call going to the river and the King of Spades record possible possible straight flush there now Mike is going to check Anthony pass It will be a split pot. Both players will play tens and sixes with the ace. It seems like they're not very happy about it. You're never really happy with the split pot unless you come from behind to blows, but yeah, it's like kissing your sister a little bit, they don't initiate Mike, well hey, it's a metaphor, what is this?

I don't know, but okay, action on Mike Lea, he's got a suited connector, he's got the button and he's going to raise it. to 300,000 xeno with a 9 7 of spades he calls so smoothly down the river that we go nine sevens against six sevens and the flop is a 10 10 6. I exchange for Mike, he has tens and sixes and Anthony checks. Mike is going to bet 250,000 Anthony. with a gut shot, straight draw on the backdoor flush draw, will make the decision okay going to the turn, say five of spades, so a four flush for the ant and an inside straight draw and they both pass going to the river it's a spore so the xeno didn't hit there so it didn't catch but he's kidding you know it's the only way to win the pot that will put in a hefty bed of 800,000 now Mike Lea only has the sixes, he could accept this call, his opponent called 7/8 made a diamond straight he made it was slow playing a 10 on the flop Mike Lee was a difficult call to make he opted to fold it so Anthony Zeno bluffed that pot to winning it isn't clear just dying to find out what Mike had, you won't like it when you see it later.

Can he finish here tonight and become a three time wpg champion? We'll see what would happen if it were a place where more than $1 million in cash prizes and WPT tickets would be given away every year. Well, there are some and they're just a click away. Join a wptz.com club today and win. a share of more than 1 million dollars every year the heads-up that one continues and as you could see Aunt Anthony zina with 12.5 million probably in three point six, a commanding advantage now for Anthony, you know, Anthony could tie with Gus Hansen and Carlos Mortensen he is the winningest player in the history of the WPT.

He could also win back-to-back titles, something Darren Elias did earlier this season. on the WPT, okay, in this hand Anthony has raised with King three and Mike is going all in with ace two. Well, Mike understands the value of a soft ace in heads-up poker, moves and takes the pot he applied. a lot of pressure now he played flawlessly all night you know he was cards away from being eliminated but now he's in the driver's seat it's amazing how this happened tonight in the next hand Mike Lee this time with h3 and he reached 400,000 ago and now Anthony, you know, has picked up the weapons of mass destruction, the pair of aces, what a time to get it, just incredible, he will increase it, but not much, up to 825,000, but of course you don't want to scare your victim, Colin. and he's gone all in, he's slow, the banana peel and Zito's instakill was a dream come true, the guy has two aces here, as I remember a final head of the Los Angeles poker classic years ago, Antonio Esfandiari got two aces and one on the last hand with aces Anthony xenoka do the same here if they hold this is how I get a hit this is amazing all I want is just a little sweat just a little sweat like a two yeah sorry , four five like an ace, here it comes, the first three is alive, it's a direct tie, how do you know?

How about a three? It could be a problem for Anthony. He certainly could be looking for a four to make the wheel go ridiculous or go well. Well, now Mike needs a three or a four, but a four would give him a pot. Now he is fine at this point. An everything in the swing. The aunt is one letter away from becoming back-to-back champion here on the WPT. You seem a little disappointed with your second place, yeah, well, so close to my first win on WPTV, you know, it's disappointing not to win, but I think second place has a pretty good pace, so I'll be fine and I'm happy.

Francie Mike, congratulations on your second place finish. Mike Sexton says hello and now let's talk to the LAPC champion from Cranston Rhode Island. Anthony Zeno. Your week this week has been amazing.

Optive bounty dropped, including season three WPT Player of the Year Daniel Negreanu, hands of season 10 champion Fey 101 Moon Kim, along with fellow Canadian Seroma, defeat in the hands of the game Local Ravi players would soon be allowed a re-entry, so it wouldn't be the last time we saw the players who were eliminated for the first time bounty season 13 to see Garrett Priya was set to join the list of flops outs after After his set of sevens on the flop was left behind by the components that fell directly on the flop on a miracle 7 on the river gave Garrett quads to keep his tournament hopes alive, then it was time to reward the violence of the rewards when Joe Hashem was all-in against Darren Elias.

I definitely post very good news on the first day, beasts or a new generation of rewards. in the tournament, including our Mike Sexton Season 9 Player of the Year, Andy Frankenberger, and those above to follow Jason Koon, so this is probably my favorite thing about WP. I think people here are very excited about poker, you get incredible participation, it's just amazing tournament, several players who were eliminated on the first day.

Also returning to the field, including three-time WPT Champion Anthony Zeno and two-time WPT Champion Daniel Negreanu, who took the time to sign autographs and chat with some fans who took charge of announcing the fan pattern by Judy. she where she to the room and she presented the shooting stars on each table. How happy are you to be here? Of course, this is my backyard. Maybe Vicki called the World Poker Tour final table six times. It's pretty awesome, yeah, but there are no wins, so maybe you'll get them. This time, good luck, Bill, okay, good luck everyone.

The beans still had Mike in his hand when he was an accomplice. Mike Sexton was all in. leading with a set of nine, okay, we need a wise man, but my team survived here, they go to the money on the turn. Mike would re-enter the tournament only to again pass fellow breakout star Antonio Esfandiari as the field continued to shrink and there were more players. The local player and champion of the WSOP women's event was eliminated. Aang was cashing in on bounties after taking out Jeff Madsen and then Dan Shak to build a monster stack. He was sure he would have the chip lead when the game ended that night and would win an additional $10,000 at the end. chip leader for the day, she would lead the way for the 155 players who made it through the day to advance, including season eight Bay 101 finalists Dan O'Brien and Phil Hellmuth.

No, I wasn't fully awake until I got here, but now I'm kind of in the air for the first level of the day they were published.the official tournament numbers. Registration has closed and we have a total of 708 participants in the five million dollar prize pool. First place will earn 1.2 million, plus a spot in the coveted WPT Champions Cup After winning early on day one, a Bay Area local and breakout star, Faraz Jaka, felt pretty confident with a price In your head, everyone is pointing at you, but I'm so used to playing a lot and people come at me, so I liked it.

I like to have fun. I like to make fun of people. I have a huge stack, so no one has claimed my reward. Another local player who had fun was dental lab owner Ron Lewis. This is my first WPT tournament and I love it. I entered through a satellite. I hit a shooting star. I have this guy, he is an incredible man and more rewards would be lost, including a three-time WPT champion, Anthony Zener. who wouldn't be able to capture back-to-back titles apparently someone else will have to win one by one, but that's great, a melancholy Phil Hellmuth would have to make the short trip home and defending Bay 101 shooting star champion James Carroll to hands of season 13 Five Diamond finalists Ryan Julian as the field approached the money bubble.

The ones to watch in season 13 and the 101 runner-up in season 12. Garrett Correa was comfortable with 72 players making money if someone had to finish 73rd and that honor went to retired businessman Larry right, whose pocket sevens failed to improve against Griffin Paul's jacks with the money game relaxed and doubts accumulating. LAPC riesen runner-up Mike Lea fell in 64th place. WPT Champions. Club members. Ravi Raghavan and Carlos Mortensen headed to the pay table, followed by those before to see Matt Affleck and Dan O'Brien, the game continued into the night until 36 players remained when the dust settled at the house of businessman Ahmad Bay Area's Allah sitting on top of the chip has a massive stack of over 1.7 million in chips Berger/Taylor had a pair of just under 1.1 million and the knee of the minimum was a time to see Garrick Rhea, who was short on chips but wasn't wary of what we've been kicking around for a while and finally got lucky when a flip right now that I have there are already 36 players left, including four rewards still in play find out who make the WPT final table when we return tonight's episode is sponsored by you ruin the official watch of the World Poker Tour welcome back to San Jose and the WPT has finished the bait The 101 Shooting Star final table continues as the final 36 players arrived at the Bay 101 casino on a beautiful morning in Northern California.

Confidence was in the air, a first here. will be the last man standing I've been wearing the same outfit every day this week I wash it every day but I don't care I just want people to say something like, you know, keep the Mojo on, this is my super boost to in the morning, that's the ice cream that will get me to the final table, try not to get too excited and the rest of the tournament will be played between six players, which accelerated the action in the room, players quickly began to fall, including a three times WPT finalist in Danny bad and those of season 13 to see Garrett Corea played three, they were once and I passed three, but always taking Garrett out of season seven of eight, winner, a champion in Steve Breca along with others WPT champions.

Club member Sean, your cannon, made a big par for today that made me regret making it again as the field got thinner. Breakout star Sorrell Mitzie evaluated the remaining players. It's tough, it's not a nice little combination, as well as the satellite ball players that play in it. loop all the time, so it's a nice little mix of trails and will create some interesting dynamics. Hi, it shows that Aang knocked out WPT champions Chris Norman in 18th place to claim it. The third tournament bounty definitely picked some spots that didn't work out today, but I think in this case it's just bad timing rather than hitting The players after the departure of the Mormons, only the Turb before remained on the fields and the bets increased the atmosphere in the room. was kept light thanks to players like Ron Lewis and his lucky hat, but nurse babe was reduced to just three tables, local dealer Eric Werner and Cincinnati native Jake Paisley saw that she liked to raise while many faces family members fell.

Isaac Barron then picked up some momentum by knocking out Brian Julius in 12th place, beating Ron Lewis' kings to send him home in ninth place, Wow tied buds, then, after losing several putts to poker pro Taylor Park , Eric Werner went all-in and tested local player Ravi Sunder with whiskey. Ravi called. and would need his hand to stay up to avoid being eliminated no help on the board doubled Ravi and left Eric with just under two big blinds surprisingly Eric survived the next page umph when Isaac Barron eliminated the second day chip leader Ahmad Allah hanging in eighth place couldn't shake him every time they raised, but it would be nice if Eric Werner's time ran out that day and he was eliminated by Jake Paisley in seventh place, which meant the final table was set.

Isaac Barron would lead an immensely talented team. group of players that included two shooting stars or were looking to capture their first WPT titles and the first place prize of more than $1.2 million after such a close battle, it is only fitting that they reached such a talented final table that joins me. tonight it's WPTZ Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten, the gentlemen set the stage for us tonight, well Lynn this is a great final, at least it should be, because there is a lot of talent at this table tonight, the top five players of This table has a live tournament. earnings of almost 25 billion dollars and for those five players who are in their 20s, the two chip leaders, Isaac Barron and Taylor par, are the two youngest players at the table and there are sensationals, now, for very good Whatever these guys are, they will have their hands. full because the two guys behind them in chips count our two shooting stars and Vince, these remaining shooting stars might have a lot to say about who will win this tournament tonight, well you're right Mike, they are superstars in the game, let's get started. first with the Canadian in his Sorrell Mitzi won two million dollars in a single quite impressive tournament but then let's move on to the local here Faraz Jaka four times at a WPT final table he was the player of the year of WPT season 8 It's fantastic, this It's a great group of players, thanks guys, and before the players took their seats on the WPT executive, Matt Savage met with four-time finalist and season eight WPT Player of the Year for us, Jakka Frost. what will be needed? to add a WPT championship to your resume tonight, you know, I've had a lot of final tables and I've never won a big main event yet, so I'd love to get that monkey off my back and you know.

It will be necessary to run well. I will have to get good cards, but the most important thing is that I will have to play well. This is a very stacked final table. It's one of the toughest mountain tables I've ever been on, so I'm going to have to get past some of these guys, sir, who will win their first WPT title here at bay. 101 players start, so let's take a look at the chip count and go to the table, there you will see the squirrel's chip count as Ik Baron comes out. in front with six point seven million Taylor pair in second place with 4.2 million Jake Paisley in third place with three point nine million and that's what they're playing for the champion will take home one point two million seven hundred thousand per second the champion will take home Also take home how beautiful you blow Watts right there, well this is going to be an exciting final table to borrow a phrase from the PGA Tour, these guys are good, the before five thousand blinds, twenty and forty mil, the first to perform, ravi sundar, the first WPT.

In case it is local, he quickly retires against Faraz Jaka and also withdraws his hand action against the Canadians. The real Mitzi, who I'm a big fan of the way this guy plays poker, looks down at the Ace Jack of Hearts, this guy is tough, I mean, really tough he does it. 80,000 to get Isaac Barron out and now Wow, I can't believe it. Jake Paisley gets two aces in the deal. Cat number one has risen in front of him. He's going to bet three. Here it is two hundred and fifteen thousand to enter Taylor par young.

Poker pro from San Diego, California is retiring, so let's go back to Sorrell Mitzi, you know he wants to see a flop of this hand, do you know what kind of danger there is? He will make the call. Sorrell from Canada, 28 years old, making the call hand number one here we go with the flop it's an 850 for all the different suits no hearts this flop could save Sorrell some money Mitzi Paisley lining up for the continuation bet 225 quite a bit easy walk away now for Sorrell let her so hand number one go to the cheek Paisley never swept this season Royal Caribbean International players Royal flash fairness Awards who get a royal flush a cruise trip for two to join the WPT in our next cruise and going to w PT Cruiser would mean everything to me wanting WPT Title, you will always be remembered or co-champion.

I mean, I started out as a fan, I liked watching Ivy Negreanu and those guys, so now I like playing with these big final tables, cool. I've made it to seven and two WP keys, so this is my first chance, so you know, to make it to a televised final table. It would definitely be the highlight of my career to win a WPD title for a non-professional poker player. It is a dream come true. Ewing will change your life. I know when your next chance will be, so I'll do my best. You know, obviously, there are some things that are out of my hands, but I'll do my best and hope it works, so I've been around. block in the silly world P, you know, a WPT Player of the Year.

I was one of the ones I saw and I just haven't won a tournament, so it would be nice to get that monkey off my back Isaac Barron, he's the chip. leader has six point seven million Taylor par with 4.2 Jake Beasley also with four point two and in the short stack Robbie Sundar with about one point four well Vince this is what I find interesting about Robin he is his own amateur at the table he is an engineer software It has been for 16 years before in this tournament, won the Sorrell Mitzi reward. A rebuy is now allowed for everyone, which is decisive, so Sorel Reba, but there is a chance that Robbie could win Sir Rails' reward twice in the same tournament that is in Ravi's from him. make you a deal if I knock you out then you give me back the shirt if you knock me out then I'll give you this shirt and we'll have to walk home and without a shirt I want that shirt back that's not going to happen and I'm going to take that shirt off anyway it's a new shirt He hasn't changed his clothes all week he just thinks he's superstitious well that's the window Sorrell Mitch is taking off his shirt before making a swimming bet where he could swim five kilometers who from the Brazilian island just off the coast when he was there he raised 150 thousand doing that around Isaac Barron who's going to go crazy with a nine five makes a hundred thousand makes Jake Taylor, now on par with that The King Queen of Spades makes the call and there's only one left It would be Ravi and he has a small pair of threes.

He is a local Lisa. I don't call it amateurs, I call it non-professionals. He is a tough player for the first time in the WPT in the The first cash, of course, is very impressive. Mahlon and will go all-in with his hand. He said that he would play without fear at this final table. Vance, we're seeing him come over two players in this pot, think of a point for yourself. with only two triples Isaac with the fast fold and now with the split tail will also give up Robbie takes the pot no, I'm playing with my blinds calmly, he is fine, he is a defender and this guy is not afraid to apply pressure.

Ravi was amazing yesterday. he wasn't playing I'm pretty sure I told several people that he's my new hero, he was just playing like crazy. I think someone came to me and said, "I'm embarrassed by a jacket, one of the most aggressive players on the tour." but Ravi is more aggressive applying pressure constantly Ravi does a lot of those actions in the pair of Taylor from San Diego 26 years old, let's see what he has six four of clubs he is under pressure, he is going to raise with that, a thousand Ravi folds a couple of times behind him he folds three times and now he's about to shake Paisley, who has a quality hand 10 years old, he's going to call from the big blind look at a flop six four against 10 years, let's take a look.

I know what flop to flop three for Jake Paisley. ten here Flint to Saginaw he has a good time setting the trap Taylor, what did you do to yourself? Oh no, he will do the best continuation eighty-five thousand. Little does he know the monster lurking in front of him and therein lies the easy decision to go to the turn. The five of diamonds doesn't help either player, but Jake is going tocheck again if Taylor closes here. If she does. Because they finished? Taylor goes to the river. I hope he doesn't catch a peace diamond queen. He doesn't do it now. the man with the real hand will make the 125 value bet hoping against hope that the junkie calls but he doesn't escape that hand Jake Paisley former basketball coach former college player also James played and coached at Christian Brothers in Memphis, Tennessee, Now he's here on the throw poker circuit, you see him sitting in second chip position now and Isaac Barron, well the best thing about these guys is that they continue to fight for pots, they don't necessarily have to have a hand. just imagination creativity sometimes it doesn't work but other times it works well we have a couple of folds and a raise now Isaac Barron keeps playing the hot stove this guy doesn't learn so amazing Jake coming out Taylor couple isn't going to play now the non-pro career he said that was going to be aggressive veterans, we are seeing it, there is no doubt that he is coming out on top with a king and queen of another suit here against the chip leader, we are only 5 years old, 37 years old, family man. from two you get to 75 trying to get the chip leader out of this, can you do it?

Extremely smart guy, there he goes, there's also a chess master once, okay, Isaac comes out and looks at Robbie saying, "I'll show you this mediocrity." I told you my faults are good, man, never steal my blind. I'm sure he'll keep trying. I knew you know I fucked. Jack just can't handle the pressure. You just had fun. Have you ever dreamed of playing in a televised world? Poker Tour event club wptz.com akha jizz prizes for travel stay and play in a w ptomaine tour event at the WPT comet club you can today and play on TV tomorrow when you enter the casino they had the photos of all the rewards and my favorite, of course, is Daniel Negreanu to meet him.

I can't tell you how much that means to me. We had an empty seat at our table and everyone at the table was wondering who the reward would be. It was Phil Hellmuth. It is an honor to be able to. Sitting at a table with someone who plays poker as well as he loves Debra dbt. Until now he sings very well. Very good. This was a true VIP experience. I got to meet some pros and play with some pros. Know? One minute you're watching these players on TV and then the next year you're sitting at a table with them.

I did it today too. I would recommend anyone to join the WPT Club. It's something I never thought I'd do. I would get it. the opportunity, but it could be that you seize the day, it's just a click away, go to the wptz.com club and find out how you can win your entry to a live WPT event. There you will be able to see the player's chip count. Isaac is ahead with 6 million in chips Taylor even and Jake Paisley practically tied for second with just over 4.2 million the ante is still 5000 but the blinds are going up 25 and 56 players fighting for this prestigious title in bay 101 star shots quick fold by Faraz Jaka and sorrell mitzi isaac baron looks down at the ace queen is going to raise with this hand 125 to call Jake Paisley nothing folds with the hands Taylor pair leading how much and how the local Ravi sundar says how much he has king four and he told everyone not to raise my blinds.

I am a defender. He pays here. He will no doubt prove it and he calls with a king off suit and out of position. Wow, I'd go Queen versus King on the flop. is at eight six seven, they will help either player, just hit Robbie the sucker on the straight draw, but he checks. a very nice Queen of the East, now she only has ace high and will fold the hand, so Robbie Sundar takes the pot and is making these guys very uncomfortable. I'd like to wonder what the only fan at this table, Robbie, is thinking knowing how good everyone is.

These guys can compete with them now. This is the first time he has cashed in on the World Poker Tour. He doesn't feel intimidated at all. Vince came in with a small stack and said, "You know, I'm just going to play my game." I don't care who they are, they will call me. Move on to the next hand. A couple of holes. Now Jake Paisley can't pick anything up. He seems displeased. He falls apart without playing with the man of the minute, local Ravi Sundar. non-professional player and he doesn't have a hand of anything 125, but that won't stop him, he looks at this.

Wow, just phrases out of position with a nine off suit in the Faraz Jaka, who calls with the ace two arts on the flop jack ten seven Roberts got the straight tie, but Jack bothchecked going to the turn 10 pair on the board, so Ravi qualifies before the flop, he didn't bet on the flop and now he's getting brave getting out the chips, yeah 225 and a quick fold from Faraz Jaka, so ravi sundar is doing it right now, advance no hands just making playing poker a stressful game if you want to play poker go meditate so it comes up from the bottom of your stomach and then comes back.

You know that if you meditate a lot towards poker you will not be inclined. Even if you take three bad beats, God says do a couple of minutes, you know, inhaling and exhaling, you can't do it until you come back as a new player, there will be a new energy that will regenerate you, that's very good for poker. Ravi is definitely interesting and he liked to be called omen meditation so Ravi once we called open alright Mike I need to study meditation like he does he has committed to taking a 10 day period of silence and meditation me allows me to sit. right next to Robert, he is also into meditation, in fact he went to a 10 day meditation retreat in Thailand.

There are a lot of meditators here at this table tonight, which seems to be working out well, making sense for the pair of sevens for Jake Paisley and he will raise to a hundred thousand on Taylor Park, who looks down on the pair of jacks. Taylor is a very aggressive player, but just calling here he hasn't raised with the jacks. Ravi out because we didn't play. Sorrell expels Issac now at 6-4. he's in the big blind, he'll stay here, he'll give you a big price to go here and he does, so the three way action here the fluff is a jack for two, three of a kind of Taylor pair, now Isaac he has two fours, he checks, Jake could like this flop of two sevens he thinks it's the best and he's going to bet 140 thousand and to say it he'll fit the call okey dokey Willie gets aggressive he's trying to double oh yeah he's going to raise he'll wait that his opponents have a top pair maybe a flush draw where he can get a lot of chips out of it, but all the guys rejected his ban.

Jake abandons both sevens. Taylor par takes that pot, don't blame him for raising, even though he was trying to win a pure big one. monster sound you have to hear it to believe it get yours today at monster products.com WP bar to enter code WP t25 to get your special discount if 101 shooting stars is always a fun stop San Jose has the best poker fans and they make We feel very special every time I am here.

Master, that looks good, thank you very much, although I still get very excited about all this every year I come back. I'm always impressed with the turnout and the great event they put on here at Bay 101, well the 211 players here. today 101 are treated very well by the casino and the fans if you polled most of them they would say their favorite stop on the tour is here in Bay 101 Isaac Barron is the chip leader right now with 5.8 let's go back to the felt really known, apart from San Diego, quickly folds his hand, let's take a look at Robbie, soon the door hand is courtesy of Draftkings.

The hole camera looks down on an offsuit king 9, that's a big hand for this guy and we've seen him play much worse. that but I'll leave it here now Faraj is going to raise with a king 7 of a suit towards Sorel Mitzi has a 9 5 of clubs and says to re-raise between 50 to call he got a 3 Bennett here with a 9 5 takes Paisley Back to four Eyes, no, he won't play it either, so Sorrell, who hasn't made many moves here tonight, makes a move with the shell if they don't have to show up, which, give him credit, makes it unlikely, but not in - King of Diamonds, yeah, I guess I had the case of things, oh, you're trying to say you have Kings.

Oh, Sorrell, you clever dog, you're not going to work. Sorrell, okay, back to Ravi, he'll fold the hand for Raja and also eliminate Sorrell. a break Isaac gives Jake and a small blind this is the battle of the blinds Jake is going to enter here against Taylor who only has a 7 to say I'm going to raise this leaves 150 to go and a quick call Taylor understands people to limp I usually have nothing trying to see a cheap flop so I raised it to junk hands competing against each other let's look at the flop wow it's a queen Jack ten all very nice spades none of the players have a spade jake has a straight flop open but checks here comes a continuation bet from Taylor, it's very difficult for Jake to continue with that hand, he folds it so the aggressiveness paid off for Taylor and I can tell you that he was trained by two of the most aggressive players in poker Paul Volpe and Mark Herm, so like those masters, Taylor par is very aggressive at the table, yes he was the online card player of the year 2010.

This guy can really play against a younger player at this table and also against Faraz Jaka Queen Jack. do it a hundred thousand ago Sorrell draws Isaac and checks Jake with two fours you always like to see flops or small payers waiting to flop that set where you can double he will make the call Taylor splits behind him with a pair of tens he squeezed not just one call, so I just got called with two jacks a minute ago where he flopped three jacks now our joker Ravi 475 475 is going to try a squeeze play with a nothing hand, he's going to 475 Fierce out Jake out oh, there's one More to Getting over that was meant for mine, yeah, so it's a million-dollar start.

Owen gets a couple going all-in and okay, man, it's that time of day. Hey? Is this? I have a pocket pair, how about you say 100? I'm not saying don't do it to yourself. I feel like I'm going to get this hand, he's just lying through his mustache. Poker is about engineers short-circuiting their hand. Here it would be a short circuit if you think about playing this, okay, I forgot and you will eventually fold and show a horrible card. PS: Flowing here in Bay 101, we'll be right back.

We have a star-studded final table and over a million dollar payday for our champion. The action continues, so let's go back. to the game Isaac Baron is still in front but not by much Taylor is hot on his heels right now with just under 5.7 million we will take home over 1.2 million in this event action on Sorrell Mitzi he is Canadian he has ace five of A Hearts seems to like his hand at this point a hundred and ten thousand ago Isaac and Jake and now Telep are also dating crazy Robbie Sundar he has seven six he is going to make the call of a small blind rose jhatka who looks In that beautiful pair of Queens, the first real handful of rogers collected at this final table, let's see how it plays, graces the three bets of up to 375,000.

Cyrill realizes it, Robbie also comes out, so Faraz Jaka doesn't get the action he wanted, but he will win a good pot, he has reached so many final tables here on the World Poker Tour Tenth effective in history, fourth action in the final table now with Isaac Baron quickly folded by him and Jake Paisley is now in Taylor's pair and Taylor with an eight-five, is going to raise with this. He had a hundred thousand to go. Robbie called with a Sadoff suit thrown by Faraz Jaka and Sorrell joined the party with a jack 7 suit, three-way action, here's the flop. a jack six five, so jack is for Sorrell, he's going to check the painter's flat bottom pair, so he's going to make a continuation bet here 120,000.

Robbie doesn't get any of that in any hand, there's no tie, he calls and Sorrell now has top pair, what are you doing here? a lousy kicker days before the flop a continuation bet and call but Sorrell's speaker's instincts are second to none he makes the call with the jacks we go to the turn court turn it's a six that evens the board and doesn't help anyone Sorrell checks poor Caleb now I can't be too excited, it's going to slow Ravi down and I'm going crazy, honest, no, it's going to happen, there's nothing in hand and we're going to the river.

It's a Fahd that gives a full house of sixes for Teyla par Sorrell to pass and them. We're taking out betting chips here 385,000 and Robbie ain't got nothing here mother oh no oh no he's going all out Sorrell is trying to tell Taylor he's got six it's full if you're in Taylor's seat that's exactly what you think that the guy has everything. what you can beat is a bluff here even though you have a full five, not much more, although that's theproblem, it's only about a million more, of course, Taylor has over five million, you have a lot of heart, well, he's right about that, well, he has a lot of heart like nine hundred and something else true, I think you're lying, one thing it's thinking it's something else the man call that guess okay I call the guy he'll do it yeah wow what a call from Taylor with five full and his instincts were right Ravi was bluffing Ravi is now in sixth place and out Robbie sued Arthur, it took a lot of yoga to get over it, give credit to the guy who tried to make a move to win his pots, they just got picked. out for Rob, he's going to tickle my 68000 horn, he's going to change his clothes and right now he's coming to talk about wild.

He'd look like a real fool if I went. Really, thanks Robbie, you talked about running some crazy Bluffs tonight, which is why I take It's a bit too far on this one, yeah that's right, I didn't put it at a five out of six. I thought I was playing high and that's why I thought it could probably be a split pod of 168,000 plus a reward, are you happy? With the result I absolutely, in fact, know that I wanted to finish in 72nd position, which is on the money. I made him 12 times happier, so yes, it might last a little longer.

I turn to my esteemed colleagues Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten, guys, how has the action been here in San Jose? to your expectations, then it has lived up to it and it will live up to it even more before this tournament is over because we literally have five star poker players left in this tournament, but the guy you have to be impressed with. so far he is the youngest guy at the Taylor par table, but he bogeyed the hole and came to the final table in second place in chips with 4.2 million, now he has more than 7.5 million Isaac Barrett in second place Jake Paisley in third advance let's not forget the other two shooting star guys, oh yeah absolutely, Canadian Sorrell Mitzi and Faraz Jaka, two high stakes players, they're great, but they have a small stack, they're at the IHOP right now for the pancakes, let's see if you can come back, thanks guys and With the first place prize of 1.2 million dollars still up for grabs, we're sure we'll see more fireworks here tonight, players ready to start again, so Let's take a look at those chip counts and go to the table, there you'll see this chip count grid, Taylor. pair in front with 7.5 million Isaac Barron in second place with 5.6 million Jake Paisley in third place with 3.6 and the two bounties in fourth and fifth place the life-changing money for the winner 1.2 million and he's 5,000 the blinds at 25 and 50 let's go with partner Faraz Jaka who's going to raise with a 5-3 Sorrell Mitzi out Isaac Baron also out and now Jake Paisley with a pair of deuces and he'll pay three million little loves like screaming at these events a couple of players told me this is the toughest final table we've seen in a long time on the World Poker Tour, it's a race to Tayla's pair and he's ready to apply the pressure, you'll see it right here , this three bits up to 385,000 by jumps and now Jake. with a small pair of deuces, yes, the Ducks will also be quacking from here.

LCS Perry and Taylor equal the 2010 Online Car Player of the Year. There you see some of the superstars in the house watching the action here, let's go back to the Canadian Sorrell comes out and now Isaac Baron with jack ten of spades and has made 125 to leave Jake leaves Taylor Park is going to take a breather and Feroz chakra He will call with queen eight of clubs because he was going to defend from the big blind and four eyes, a top pair on the flop. I get him into trouble as his opponents got a straight draw and a flush draw with two over cards, Isaac Benton cross check 150, Feroz didn't raise, he just called with top pair. come on the turn, you can, they're for Isaac, let's see what he gets right.

He gets a pair of tens. He now he has the best hand and the best draw for us in trouble. He's going to pass. Isaac will keep 350,000 and those yellow plates are worth it. if that takes and a good escape from Feroz, they are lost, the least they could lose there after the class at the top and there is Isaac's mother, Mary Dumont, in the house, well, Isaac takes that pot, both players from the Bay Area, both desperate to win their first title here at home. Faraz left this area to go to college at the University of Illinois and has since been a traveling poker professional.

I mean people who travel, there is no residence. I like to call him the homeless millionaire. He made me his poker plan, but he lives out of a backpack. He travels around the world. He likes to live among people, there is a lot of meditation and yoga. A quick and complete bite. Jake and now Taylor is on par with a king. Jack, he'll raise it to a hundred thousand and Faraz Jaka behind him and with a king ten, he looks at this, he's stacking. up chips you pass and he has a three-bed adhesion at 250 thousand Sorrell out Isaac I'm not going to play against Taylor the chip leader has plenty of money he's going to make this call so King Jack versus King 10 let's go to the flop and the flop is showing King 10 to call Fierce Davis got two kings and a gut straight throwing checks for eyes with kings and tens is a little bad 320,000 flopping Taylor but Taylor isn't going anywhere yeah he'll get stubborn second and a straight drop I have to make this call this is getting dramatic we go to the turn and the turn is a jack how do you think Taylor down with two pair gives Taylor the best and both players are afraid that their opponent might have a queen? his hand that would give them a straight so they both check to the river 7 and Taylor has to think it's good here the veterans after the frost checked on the turn you put a better value just say to hell with it this guy could be Play slow with the Queen, no, he was worth about 520, a pretty good value bet, over half a million, brave because Isaac got two pair and you have to know that your opponent is not going to bet two aces on the river.

Feroz makes the call, he is not crazy about this. match what your opponent can have you can beat him he can bet on the river Wow curiosity kills Feroz right there he pays it to the chip leader Taylor pair while he extends his chip leader you see that they are looking for eyes his face says it all My God, Yes, it put me in a bind. I've been saying for years that if there was one tournament I could pick to win, this would be it. I'm about to be in this is my hometown. If there is a tournament I would like to win, it would be it.

Be it San Jose, California, from my hometown playing, they were nobody, shooting stars. I love this tournament. I would like to win this event. San Jose is my hometown, so these tournaments are always special. I'll delete it one year. I will be here. I'm leading for one reason and that is to win and tie OPP. I feel like I've accomplished a lot in the poker world and that's the only thing I haven't done, W Player of the Year in season 8, and one or two left as well. There are rewards left in this tournament well, he's a great guy, very elegant, Faraz Jaka, can he do it here tonight? the andes are raising to 10,000 the blinds of 30 are 60,000 action on Faraz quickly folds for him 120 there is the other reward, so the kingdom is he from Canada he is going to raise here with king queen of spades 120,000 against isaac baron who has a king 8 of clubs, he'll get aggressive with that and raise to 275 Jake out Taylor out but Sorrell's not going anywhere, he called so these two guys will compete king queen against king 8 and the flop is a king can make two and both players on the flop King Sorrell makes it out, some ground checks after three Bennett preflop Isaac checks on the flop they're going to check, they check seven of diamonds on the turn Well, I have to think he's ahead right now, Serella He's ahead and makes the 375 bet, but Isaac is going to leave him cold, how can you not call a top payer here?

I have to do it. River card for the diamond desk. Put three diamonds. on the board, but it would be a backdoor flush if someone did what's the real thing going all in with two kings just feels like they're the best and in fact they are, but now if you're a seat of Isaac , you checked for pair on the flop. Wow, what are you doing here? A difficult decision for Isaac Barron. He folded before the flop. The guy paid. I bet on turning. He moved on the river. Isaac Barron with a decision. Right now she makes Sorrell rich.

This is now a guy you want to dub. up here, Isaac leaves it, what a nice play by him, the real Mitty takes that pot, it's a coup, look, the champion will take home, what a great watch that is, and there's the WPT champions cup and the bread, everything goes to this champion tonight. 1.2 million as good as all these players, none of them won a WPT title, in fact, not for us, a couple of four, for Faraz, he says, all in Sorrell and Isaac, leaving Jake Paisley, a former college basketball player and coach, it seems like it sounds like dozens.

I've had a couple of good winning games in my career and I always wanted to take that last shot. I want the burden to fall on my shoulders. He goes over the top ball. Taylor comes out and they go to show their hands. It's a confrontation. Whoa Jaffe. Rutten is enough, Jake Paisley here, well it's ten and four, it's the Highway Patrol, if Feroz doesn't win, we'll be ready for him Matt, are you ready for your line, there's Matt Savage circling the table like a vulture , here's the flop flops, no. good for 4/7 reduce ball five so much potential Faraz needs easy help to catch a four to take the lead or two runners to make a straight otherwise he will be our fifth place finisher no sir it was not a sir do I look like this? an auditor, yes, for the standing crowd, here comes the turn, an ace to six or a for now is what Feroz needs to stay alive, it was great, calm and collected, let's go to the river, Feroz will stay, it's a jack jake, baby, the first.

The basketball player doesn't just make the shot he gets an n1 for clearing a bounty on this shirt to forget it's 2500 for the bounty it's a lot more than just the cash and the prize or I'll charge money at the table to make you look like a boss reward is ego it's about Feroz always being a gentleman although he gives the shirt thanks guys make it legit at 25 I didn't count correctly Faraz Jaka one of the classic players of the eighth season WPT Player of the year I will take home two hundred and sixteen thousand , let's listen to a story.

Unlimited poker for fun and free Alright, we're back here at the World Poker Tour in Bay 101 shooting star the chip leader right now Taylor par 8.5 million the youngest guy at the table is doing it right now action in the chip leader Taylor pair looks down at h2 soft suit that's good enough to raise going to come a hundred and twenty thousand Sorrell out Isaac isn't going to play and now Jake Paisley looks down at a queen nine he's got money there he'll do this call defending against the It seems that there is a big blind and a good defense until themoment, as it comes Jack nine six Jake makes two nines and checks Taylor checks immediately and they have turned over the card Taylor picks up deuces are fine, they are well aware that those kinds of medium cards could possibly help his opponent Jake bets on the turn here with the two nines, but Taylor is going to call with the two twos 150,000, okay and the river card is an ace two, oh man, that gives Taylor two pair of aces of twos, how nice. is Taylor runner at this final table ace on the river to give him the best hand takes his check guy and here comes Taylor 420,000 shakes this guy really cold in the term with just a sigh I'm going to call him my two nines, but he won't He is going to like the result, he knows that he was eliminated on the river.

Not a good feeling, yeah, yeah, no apologies, though from Taylor, that's poker, that's how it's done. Taylor extends the chip lead very calm, calm and very composed. logical bet, okay, we are going to feel sorrell with a quick fold, now isaac with king queen and will move it to 135 to call Jake is busy looking at the kings in hand because he has picked up the draft of kings in hand. The Kings will put $1,000 into their draft. Kings count while we were raising the tailors Isak calls good luck Kings against king queen and the flop is four deuces no help for Isaac Jake comes out with a bet that goes away at 3:25 now I think he's calling with king queen , I know he has the Queen of Hearts working back to his flush, but maybe he's just matching the flow, listen to the phone, any check, he'll bet the clubs on the 600 turn and Jake will continue to win 600,000 with the kings and if his AIESEC does it.

You get the note, yes you do, since he abandons it. Jake Paisley, take that boat for the former basketball player. At that time Taylor's chip leader, with 9.1 million in chips, Isaac Barron in second place with five million from Jake Paisley and third with 4.4 million Sorrell Mitzi, the Canadian dropped to 2.5 and come on, go I'm going to be on the move picking up King nine and he just won the last pot, so I'm going to raise this puts him low and 20,000 to go to Taylor's pair with a queen 5. look at this event, I know he's the chip leader, I know he's on the button, he's in position, I know he's aggressive, I guess you had gaps and you only bet three on the button with queen five offsuit in Sorrell's short stack, which has a king queen Sorrell is the best and he's been raised and re-raised in front of him, but look at this serella, he's got a four-bet here with a king queen and it's the best hand for Isaac, Jake, now it's an incredible feeling from Sorrell and my opinion psyche he could read both his players and their weaknesses Taylor can't play it's a bet with that hand to win it well done by Sorrell this episode of the World Poker Tour is sponsored in part by draftkings if you like poker and sports then you might love sports daily fantasy games at draftkings, visit draftkings.com, enter promo code WPT and start playing today.

I don't know what's in the water here in San Jose, but the fans here are more excited than anywhere in the world. where I've traveled and been all over Europe, Australia, you name it, and this place here in San Jose they just look at poker and poker professionals in a unique way and I think a lot of that has to do with effort that goes into it. ago Bay 101 Rebeck the bay 101 is a lot of fun, comes as a reward, creates a whole new dynamic, they do a great job of rolling out the red carpet for the player Daniel laid out for the fans, yes, welcome back to the world. poker tour there are four players left and Mike.

I remember when you and not only the reward, but you made the final table here. Well, I did it, it was a lot of fun. We have one reward left in this tournament. She's a real Mitzi from Canada, but neither. part or chip leader at the moment with eight point eight million Isaac barrel with approximately five million in second Jake Paisley and third four point two and sorrell has now crossed the three million chip mark do not rule it out action on Isaac quickly folds for him and Jake Baisley 120 that will make it 120 to call a jack ten and it's on the button, raise Sorrell is going to defend from a small blind he has one of those seductive little hands four or five of spades, let's see if he has any luck with now the flop is queen three, Sorrell with the open end, straight draw, he's going to check, Jake Shirelles' continuation bet is coming, he's going to play, he'll check, he'll raise, he or he won't, he'll just call, hoping to find the magic card, you have a straight, can you do it?

King of Hearts, well that gives Jake an open straight shot. Sorrell is marked, so both players are drawn to an opening straight, the lower rate, the high, right now Jake has the best hand with Jack high, but because he has that draw, he's firing another bullet. 375,000 harder to get that baby out now, so Jake applies more pressure and Sorrell doesn't want to take the risk, he doesn't want to bet on how this guy is a big player in real life, he loves action. Basically, I've dedicated my entire life to playing poker, that's all I've been doing for the last ten years.

I went into the Army Reserves when I was 16 and learned discipline, but unfortunately, as soon as I left, most of that knowledge went out the window. I feel very blessed because I have had a lot of really big results throughout my poker career, but I have also found it very difficult to keep that money. I really hope I can get a big result here so I can prove to myself that I can keep the money and you know I'm not just that angry degenerate Sorrell, I certainly have another great chance to get a good score tonight.

More than 1.2 million go to the winner. Here he looks at the ace five offsuit and will raise it. here's a hundred and thirty thousand to go, Isaac, Jake, now with a pair of sixes, will make this call. Taylor will take a break, let these two compete for it, a spy against a pair.off the sixes flop comes King five deuces surreal rainbow flop middle pair with high level kickers it was passed by Sorrell and it's a little bad, yeah, bet of 140, yes, but Jake has not won with two sixes, he will make the call and we go to the turn. and another five hits that make a trio for Sorrell, which card now hopes that his opponents have a king in his hand to continue playing with him.

Jake is past, so we're not going to shoot one more time like 375,000 at the end. point, but Jake knows it could just be a bluff, but he thinks sixes could be good. He made the call. The river card is a three of hearts. Nothing changes again. Jake passes the sixes. Sorrell now what is the correct increase so you can make your sucker pay. 725 pretty big bets, is that going to be the number because it's such a big bet? Jake has that look in his eyes or behind his sunglasses. I have to say maybe the guy is bluffing, no he's gone.

Jake gives in and it turns out it's a good lie. Sorrell Mitzi takes over that pot and moves up the chip leaderboard. Northern California is home to some of the best and brightest poker players in the game and now a new rising star is hard at work in the felt to put a new business plan into motion. I am an entrepreneur if I decide to do something that I am 100% into. I opened six yogurt shops in Northern California, which was a great learning experience for me because I was able to sell and make some money and I just decided, okay, jump into poker and give it a try full time.

Here I am, I think I'm a risk taker and business is a risk, just like poker. You definitely have your downsides and you just have to do it. Keep a positive attitude and rebuild yourself. You can never be 100% happy unless you earn it, but I'm super proud of myself for making it this far. I haven't won that title yet, but I'm going to. I know. I'm going to hear pure monster sound, you have to hear it to believe it. Get yours today at monster Products.com. WPT bar, enter code WP t25 to get your special discount.

We're right in front of Bay 101 and the girls are going to play. we've got Mike Sexton here I'll tell you get tired of crossing the street to get here let's listen to some music over the monster superstar speakers they're fantastic okay we're about to play basketball. Great stuff, surprisingly decent, well it's an absolute miracle, no, but you were pretty good, Mike. Well, thanks Vance, but we know you're the real player of the group, but what about the girls, Jeannie and Cat, they're very tough, very competitive, you were fantastic. Well, the befores are 10,000 blinds up to forty-eighty thousand.

Here we go, actually with the Taylor par chip. Bader looks towards two fours. I'm going to upload it from below. Here 160,000 to go to Sorel, so this time he only has a jack eight. of clubs he's going to bet three times on the button with this hand against the chip leader 380,000 Isaac comes out and shakes now with the nice ace queen 880 Wow, he's going to reap what a good time for him eight hundred and eighty thousand by Jake Paisley here tailor ruining the force Very quickly, Sorrell leaves, so a good play by Jake, the basketball player, in stroke right now.

Events you know if he was a college player. A great competitor. Jake Paisley now lives in Cincinnati, Ohio. Isaac Barron, who you're looking at there, is also known for the three of him. -point shot maybe those guys should go out on the court and resolve this quick abandonment by Isaac Jake won't play now Taylor has only three very strong eight ten of diamonds and it's the battle of the blinds here and there is the two hundred thousand race To go to Sorrell with three, he's going to make this call and then Taylor raised the cut button with any two cards, so he calls it with the ace high here and the flop is a 9910, which is beautiful for Taylor, flops twice with ace kicker. and he's looking to bet 215,000 chips Sorrell, of course, knows that this guy would make a continuation bet with any two cards, so he'll call it with the ACE.

Taylor didn't get it right, you'd think that Shirelles is out there with middle cards like that two of Spades on the turn and there's Taylor's shot saying you're not going to come out cheap, there are no free cards. Sorrell has to fold so many times that you call someone on the flop thinking that he will continue betting, but when he bets again the turn reflects that strategic fold of Sorella this is up to fifteen thousand blinds 5100 action on the former Canadian military man Sorrell now dedicates his life to poker has a good hand he has 10 of spades and will put up 18 big blinds Here he flows and goes all in with him Isaac behind him with a pair of fours has folded now Jake again with the ace Queen only to go to bed ago a minute at 880 with the ace Reina that worked for dad, come on, he went with everything. here Taylor kicks out, they raise him there's a Sorrell in deficit here Jake drinks in front with the ace-queen kicker against the kingdom of ten years sees the life of the tournament on the line he is the last reward left in this tournament no one of ten known immediately paid okay I'll take Sorrell stand up the birds superstar of the railway we all love this moment here in them 101 a little sweat let's do this don't wipe the floor for looking for his name to match In that champions cup, You must be shit to do it.

He dominated his opponent just now. Jake now, in ties, the opponent needs a queen or Jack looks a little strong after that flop, but things can change on the turn and now there are four spades. Additionally, Jake must get you a Jack or Queen other than a Spade to win this pot. Alright. Okay, Jake is out of it. Okay, now Jake is a big loser in the river card. Let's see what appears. He's a nine of diamonds, so good. After all, they will fold, the worst will come out with the best four players who will remain in bay 101 much celebration and partying on the World Poker Tour they 101 continue here four-handed poker Jake Paisley emotionally exhausted, that's just looking at him in the table in this stance had been in a strong second chip position with three players remaining and its ease between BT 810 and now has to recover from four players who left a big jump in the prize money right now the next couch is 310,000 but the third place 460 1000 second place, $700 in winter force exceeds 1.2 million, so fourth in first place is 900 thousand, which is a big jump, since we know that anything can happen in the short hand poker game, including a pair of nines for Isaac, that's what he has, let's see what he does, yes, make it two hundred thousand in total Jake that with the queen nine of clubs will not play that Taylor a great leader in chips with a king jack oh wow, it's going to go up five fifteen total sorrell out lot painters got almost half the chips in play with four players left and three bits stick to five hundred and fifteen thousand, that's four million, yeah, Isaac no back off moving all in with the two nines, yeah Taylor can't take that heat, Isaac will win, how did you learn?

To play this part of Taylor, we're just going with the top of him, take the pot off me, well it helps when you've got a pair of nines to do it with, so it's going to work for him right there, actually, back on Taylor, let's take a glance. On his card, say Queen Eight, well, he's a ruthless veteran, most peoplesimply throw this hand immediately under the weapon. Taylor will raise it to 200,000. Sorrell behind him with only four twos, yes most players would throw this away too, especially if he raised in front of 460, but Mr. Ella has a three-bet here with all four guys, he's going to shoot with absolute quickness and pip, well, he knows Taylor lost the last pot, he knows he triple bets lightly and raises lightly, so he just triple bets.

He's here even though he only has a four two, everyone has to retreat. Good play by Sorrell. He's a stinking Canadian, he has to stay alive and a lot of times you say to yourself, "If I'm lucky like this, this could be my night." I'm going to write it down, that's not just luck, it's making it happen, you have four deuces and taking a pot like that, that's playing poker, okay, this time it's got a suited connector, eight of clubs, that kind of hand. I would like to see a flop with him going to raise to 200,000 here Isaac Baron from Menlo Park California a local here has king ten and people are going to raise, look at the hands with which these people bet three times over and over again on this final table The king removes the suit four two from the suit King ten so you can adapt it come out and Shirelles is going to call we're going to the flop it's a queen ten two mozzarellas he has a gut straight draw back to a flush draw he's going to check Isaac with tens just over 1.1 million in the pot Isaac is going to bet 375,000 on Sorrell in the straight draw.

When your opponent calls you with this type of board, you think he has a straight draw for the Queens kicker of the week, maybe two tens too, Sorrell. He couldn't hit five of Spades on the turn, so he has nothing and checks again, but Isaac will slow down and check too, going to the river. Seven of Spades, that's a great card for Isaac there because there was no direct chance after that flop, he checks. check Sorrell just waves like a white flag why not bet on the river just says you take this pot and Isaac is happy to take it now that Isaac Baron came into this final table as the chip leader, nothing has gone well for him but such once win that. marijuana will give you a little pick-me-up again there are 100,000 reasons to love the wapt.com club because there is a WPT VIP club, you have a chance to win a share of $100,000 in cash and prizes every month wapt.com club never lose a cent playing guaranteed poker there are many ways to play a hand and maybe even more ways to analyze it waiting Tony Dunst is ready to analyze it tonight our final table is made up of five of the best young players in the game, the only amateur to reach the final table was Ravi Sundar who was eliminated at the end of the last episode when he was caught bluffing his entire stack, he tried to make a move to win that pot, the top row eliminated him and while his bluff didn't work out watching Ravi play made me wonder If you are the least experienced player at the table, it is the best strategy to stay out of contention or respond to the professionals, let's analyze it after seeing Robbie's hand against Taylor's pair, it is clear that he believes.

Responding, Taylor raises the cutoff with five eights and Ravi calls on the button with ace eight in a hand that most pros would choose to max out. Sorrell Mizzy called in the big blind and the players went three to jack six five. flop Taylor bet with bottom pair and Ravi made another weak call with ace high and no drop. Sorrell actually had the better hand and called on the flop with his top pair, all players checked when the six paired on the turn, leading to a five on the river that put two pair on the board.

Sorrell checked for the third time and Taylor made a full house bet on him just seconds after Ravi announced all-in. Monitor Sorel could fold and the tailor was left with the nauseating decision although I wasn't a fan of how Robbie played the first fairways, his River Bluff is quite interesting, it's a believable line to take with a full six and Kaler knows that Robbie he's weak enough preflop that he can call with many hands containing a six, he's crazy and crazy means you can always win. I think what really stopped Robbie from winning this hand was the size of his stack if he had another half million to start the hand.

I think his all-in will probably win the pot. Instead, Taylor was getting such a good price on his hand that he finally called, called high, yeah, so let's go back to our original question in case Ravi is answering the pros because if you're always on tight tables and difficult, your opponents will know not to call your bets. Ravi's Bluff might not have done it. It worked this time, but if you're making bets that give the pros their reaction, thank your bully, then you're giving yourself a chance to win. Well, Robbie showed a lot of heart there, but Pro Taylor's top pair took him out like a cherry. a tree thought it was a bluff and it was, but I'll tell you something I missed: Robbie was a spectacular player, takes all kinds of risks, you love action junkies, oh he was great, Jake Paisley, he's 6 now years, they are not going to play with Taylor.

Jack 10 is the chip leader and he will certainly play this on the button in chip position. The aggressive player will raise 200,000. Sorrell and now Isaac Baron with a king 9. Sometimes you hate calling the raise with a king 9 out of position against you. chip leaders, but has extremely aggressive players like a tailor, because when they have chips, sometimes you just have to defend yourself or they will just push you around. Fluff is a queen. Queen 3 Isaac is going to check and Taylor now pairs nothing on the flop. don't care 180 is the bet I'm going to make the continuation bet what call here from Isaac just call him with the king high he knows Taylor can raise with any two cards continue with any two cards calls him with the king I'll ask the king in a turn to take the lead now the wrist three spades now this also gives Taylor an open straight draw well most people once they made that draw would be happy to get it but Taylor is going to bet again yeah 450 for the decision. by Isaac so Taylor now knows he has something here's the river card six of clubs Isaac is going to check Taylor wisely checks behind him Isaac Barron having some heart his eyes are going to win the pot with two kings there's Isaac's mom Isaac in the audience very excited for him I think he loves sports and has a special talent for three-pointers in basketball.

She says Mike I'm banishing him. I see it in Jake, he comes on the court and shoots. Wouldn't it be like that? Jake Paisley of course in division two basketball was a basketball coach but Isaac says I have a knack for shooting threes we can shoot a little if you like in fact the game with Taylor this time in a Stein of clubs has over 8.4 million in chips and will increase this to 200,000 Serrell. horrible nine six last time I swear it was on button III I bet with a four two he won the pot with that here he's going to make a free bet with a nine six of another suit he's crazy he makes 450 to call with a 96 out he has to love this and Isaac comes out and now he comes, come on, Jake Paisley, he goes all-in with Ace Jack.

I'm going all in on Ace Jack. You just don't see it very often, that's knowing that your opponents slightly raise and three-bet. Taylor has to come out and sorrell with a horrible hand, drop that and what action we are seeing, what aggression is beautifully done and with that we conclude our second hour of coverage from the bay 101 casino in San Jose, California, be sure to join us on continuation. moment when we will crown a champion in the exciting conclusion to bay 101's shooting star for Mike Sexton Vince Van Patten Tony Dunst Matt Savage the Royal Flush girls and everyone at the World Poker Tour I'm Lynn Gilmartin see you next time at the WPT the World Poker Tour is sponsored by the wapt.com Club never lose a penny playing poker guaranteed there will be a champion in bay 101 shooting star tonight like a million dollars tonight in San Jose California the destiny of the prostitute is written in the stars hello everyone and welcome to WPTZ's coverage of bay 101's shooting star I'm Lynn Gilmartin.

This has been an exciting final table and we are very close to crowning a champion as the remaining players aim for the first place prize of $1.2 million and join me in calling. the action our two stars in my vault Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten well and what we hope for is an epic conclusion to this fantastic tournament four players left fighting for this title the three chip leaders entered they are still first second third chip position ha been a change, although Taylor is now the chip leader events, we have one shooting star left, let's not forget the Canadian Sorrell Mitzi, he is very exciting and I will tell you that some of these are four very respected players that I have won a lot of money in the poker game fighting for this great championship, thank you gentlemen, play, it's about to stop, so let's check the chip count and go to the table, there you see this gridiron chip count, Taylor way ahead seven. point eight million Isaac Ferran in second place with six point one Jake Paisley with three point nine Sorrell Mizzy with three point two million the winners will take home over one point two million in second place seven hundred thousand Danny's will start with fifteen thousand lies are 50 and 100 let's go to the story full a pair with a pair of fours Taylor the leader in chips like the four is going to raise two hundred thousand ago the Canadian myths of Sorrell comes out and now Isaac Barron Isaac is a local he is 27 years old what a tough player and look, he has taken out those plates Wow 550,000 these bets and those yellow linen that are worth a thousand each.

The purple chips are 25,000 red or 5000 chickpeas going away and now the tailor will make this call and has the small pair. looking for flop before where my bus this guy a pair of fours versus king nine of clubs here we go and the fluff is an ace ten six of clubs all are fantastic clubs for Isaac Barron throwing the nuts, the cold nuts as we say and he checks it out and He does it because he knows this guy is very aggressive and my bet here on Taylor is that he will bet the two fours 480,000. Do you run or just match?

Here is the call okey-dokey as you like to say men about yourself. never touch it, go up there when you have the best ones, so tunes are playing in his head, let's go to the turn, now the queen of clubs comes out, so this gives Taylor a flush too, but not like Isaac, who has the best possible hand. He'll try to catch again, passes Taylor, too smart for that. The last card that comes out is jacket diamonds, it comes from the kha'zix. Our advantage here, no, he'll check again, but even if the guy had a straight, he'll check here with four clubs. the table, Vance, yes, they both verify that he could have called his bet because Taylor had a club by making that flush.

Isaac Barreras regained the chip lead in this battle for Hannah. He left some money on the table right there though for sure. but back to that, so Sorrell from Canada and Sorrell is 28 years old, he has the King armed with diamonds and will run, makes 200,000 to go Isaac coming out to check on Paisley, look at the Ace 9 on button 1 last. pot and will raise it to 330 total Taylor out and Jake will take that win just like that, take it when you can what a group of aggressive players we have here, talented, it's good to raise to 20,000 blinds, we 60 120 at this point. actually, Jake Paisley meant that apparently every pot is a three- or four-bet bet before the flop.

These guys are all very aggressive players. Jake leads without Taylor with the queen 9 of clubs, makes a sorrell of 240 and how Isaac with a jack 10 and he is going to call from the big blind. This is Isaac's 12th WPT first cash bottle table. Impressive here tonight and the flop is 10 8 6, so he's got tens. I think the top pair is marked, the two chip leaders on the table. two younger players at the table fighting here Taylor with a two-way straight draw goes to bet 285,000 a quick call from Isaac with top pair turn card deuce Isaac checks top pair and with a two-way straight draw Taylor shoots him 555,000 and again Isaac is calling with the top of his hair towards the river come on, Taylor is going to get no ace comes up and there are three diamonds out there and again Isaac checks the powers obtained for a three barrel bluff event Wow 1 million two hundred and fifty bet on the semi-bluff on the turn flop and now on the river it's the stone bluff what a good cultist that would be from Isaac, but what a bet from Taylor, I mean, it's hard to put 1.2 million there on two. tens in this pot when the guy has raised before the flop on the flop at the end bet the river boom-boom-boom your hand decreases every time he bets and Isaac is going to let this rip.

He is relentless in his aggression and it is worth it to him yeah those are two former online poker players of the year who tried it they are all for these guys who got into online poker they are tough starting online definitely gave me a tremendous advantage in poker live because I got the fundamentals that I think are very important when I'm playing my best. Not reallyI don't even think, you know, I'm just reacting and homeless like second nature. I've seen a lot more hands than anyone else. who started playing live and just being in these positions over and over again will make you a better player when you play a live tournament, you play one tournament a week online, you play twenty to thirty a day, that's fine, no Me It is surprising that this group reaches the final table.

I'm also not surprised that they are all very talented players. They all started online. They moved on to live poker and everything I'm doing is very, very good. The winners will take home a whopping 1.2 million. Back to the money pot, we get into action with Isaac Barron and he will quickly fold his hand to Jake Paisley on the button with a junkie fold, so it's a battle of the blinds here. Taylor pair and the small blind look at their pocket kings and when you pick up two kings at a WPT final table you get $1,000 in your draft kings accounts, courtesy of the draft kings.

Taylor raises to 300k, but Sorrell with Jack 10 of spades quickly calls and here's the flop Queen 10 5, so Sorrell gets a piece of that could hurt him, comes a continuation relief with Taylor's two kings 255, but Sorrell isn't going anywhere after the flop on a pair of tens, if he's going to call on the turn let's see if something crazy happens, not just a two of Hearts I can stop pushing with two diamonds out there, two hearts and one two card straight. Taylor making a strong 625, nothing special, he just wants to sweep this hand and he has done so well that Sorel laid down there against an extremely aggressive player like It's hard for Taylor to move away from second pair, sometimes Sorrell did it wisely, there are the Taylor's parents, well, you just don't know what the river card was going to be, so move on, yeah, Jake looks down at 10 years old.

Very good hand in four-handed poker. I play 240 and he's going to raise, there's 240,000 left to call and for Taylor who has a nice pair of fives in case you're wondering how to play small payers, if you see Taylor Park just 3bet him he is making 600,000, yes, yes. Sir, we will check Mitzi well for a long time, all in Isaac out a four-bed all-in with an offsuit Ace Jack the second or third time we have seen that play at this table tonight this is knowing that his opponent is well placed by Jake can raise the light and three bad lights, so Sorrell just moves all in with the ace Jack, but Taylor is looking at him here with the two fives, so we have a run and the life of the Missy Sorrell's tournament is up for grabs here, it's a must-win flip. this boat to stay alive Taylor definitely set the price to stick with that decision make the decision and we're racing put his reward badge out there that doesn't show much confidence in winning this race Sorrell 28 years old great action player needs to get lucky here It's not going to happen on that flop when a Queen three deuces comes up.

Sorrell he is the one who catches a safe jack to take the lead or two sets of diamonds to make a straight run. Can he do it on the turn? There's no other Queen coming out, so Sorrell. Mitzi the Canadian, every last card of his needs a suck otherwise it will cross the border again for him, here he comes, he must catch an ace or a jack to stay alive. It's a five of swords. Don't look for Sorrell, he will do it. Seroma Z out tonight in fourth place I want that wildcat to be okay, your fire collecting the last reward of the tournament in Sorrell comes out two thousand five hundred more in cash is defeated the Canadian in fourth place tonight just could never get him not to advance yes , a great player was around but couldn't swim in bay 101 in 4th place these came to talk about the savage savage with the needle after the interview he's always poking people hard table today what got in your way no winning a coin toss is definitely an obstacle in my way, I mean I was lucky before and I have been lucky several times during the tournament, sometimes you lose, yeah, 51 shooting stars, you were last, do you take pride in that, yeah , absolutely?

I mean, this year's breakout stars were very talented and being the last of them all is obviously a tremendous achievement, so I'm happy with that as it guarantees that you'll win again next year. Thanks Matt, there's more exciting action. Stay tuned, you won't want to miss it. WPT Club VIP members won over $100,000 in VIP packages during Season 12.

It's the best tournament of the year for many reasons, everything up to three players and the chip leader Taylor Park quickly folds his hand Isaac Barron now with a 4-3 like he did three hundred thousand ago with these guys are playing air, but right behind him, Jake with an ace three will make this call on the flop King 7/3 with two diamonds, they both got three and I'm not going to make a $300,000 bet.

Jake with a big kicker and the three are still bottom pair, but All these guys know that anyone who raised before the flop will continue after the flop, anything that comes out of their cheeks will make this call go to the turn and come up an ace . What a great letter to Jake. He now he has aces and three and here he comes. Isaac jumping right into the trap here, tying himself dead. Jace had gotten better and better with a $500,000 bet and quickly called a big deal here because Isaac came down to the river and his seven pair on the board.

Now Isaac gets our tokens back for the glutton and the punishment could break Coco's. a big veteran over a million Jake grimaces here because he had AIDS and three his hand just got worse his opponent would time if he only had an ace in his hand because they're both playing eight seven seven with the king kicker oh he got it but he's done car and is going to win this fight, there is a short break in the action, so let's take a look at the current view of the WPT Player of the Year standings after back-to-back wins.

Anthony Dino has secured first place, but who new? Players have moved up the leaderboard with their cache here at Bay 101 casino, once they saw the Korean War, they now have 16 total points and with their performance here tonight, Jake Paisley jumped to third place on the leaderboard , taking down his good friends Jared Jaffee and his oka edge. place on the leaderboard, it's definitely a little competitive between everyone and poker. I mean, it's just natural, but I have a group of friends that I travel with, mainly Aaron Massey, Jared Jaffee, even though it's cream and when you talk to people who have been there before and that's where you get the best information and it's great to have multiple minds to exchange ideas with and everyone is quite supportive with my money, well that's what many touring professionals breathe, they travel in groups in which they live. eat, sleep, poker, discuss hands 24 hours a day, where is my group?

I want a group, back to the action, here, Jake folds quickly and now Taylor with a queen 8 and is on the button, he will raise 300,000, wow Isaac, who has a addict a 93 but says 700 he just wasted all his money on last pot bluffing and here it goes again consecutive pots Isaac tries this the story is not so fast to complete 1.1 what poker We were looking here these guys are not waiting for a hand to go to bed, people go with their instincts about whether their opponent has a hand or not, no matter what they have Isaac MUX, the hand completely discouraged.

I'll play there for Taylor, oh, Taylor just says he might be making a move there because he lost the last pot in the bluff trying to get the money back from him, so what do you do? You just top them again, Taylor, you're twelve point four million. That's a lot of money, can you close it down the stretch? Action in Taylor Queen 9 out of the suit relentlessly reading through these guys like a pane of glass and it'll hit 40 to go. Will you take a break? ​​Catch your breath for a minute here. Now Jake has gotten a stand from the big blind and just calls, doesn't raise the ace, yeah, disguising the strength of his hand in the hope that things will work out on the flop, let's take a look and it's a ten nine five, a so beautiful flower.

Jake checks, it's a beautiful flop, not only because he has the best top pair kicker because his opponents got second pair and he is a better 260 and a quick call from Jake, you know, with the best top pair kicker, what place to enter. the turn nothing card two Jake checks again Tanner is putting it in some kind of draw and Matt you think the guy is going to lift your back beats a top pair on the flop Tanner is betting this for value thinking the two nines are the best hand here 480,000 oh and again a quick call from Jake, well so far it's just a well played hand by Jake, I hope nothing crazy happens doesn't it, seven of clubs and that's a possible straight card, If you've gone all the way with the top pair, you might be able to do it. back here and he checks check and the two tens will take this pot for Jake Paisley container a little surprised that his opponent had top pair, the top kicker, Jake playing unorthodox, take it in the pot, he has all his friends here , three players.

Three players left Taylor in front with ten point six million. Jake Paisley in second place with five point nine million. and Isaac baron in third place right now with four point six million, let's see some action on Isaac Baron, he has a beautiful hand Ace King 240 and he will raise going to 240, that's the minimum raise Jake behind him with a king 9 625 oh he's going to get fancy here makes it 625 Taylor out 1.35 there you're going to make it expensive Jake and now you can't stay in that hand much now he gives up so Isaac Baron takes it that pot there's a family Isaac He's a local, a top level player, 27 years old, what chance does he have tonight to become a millionaire, okay, a quick retirement from Jake Mike, the ante's are going to go up to 25,000 blind, 75 and 150, Taylor cold and Isis will run the 450 with nothing on and with everything quickly makes Isaac's Plouffe disappear Taylor raises him with the deuces Isaac raised thinking he didn't have much and then moved all in Taylor made the two deuces to take the pot these guys are super aggressive , anything can happen, they play very fast Top level poker is being played here, Isaac right now, first let's look at his cards jack three of spades I can't play that garbage that's it, play faster in more ways than one and now I'm Acting fast in their hands, they are quick when it comes to putting chips in the pot.

Jake with a pretty solid East nine, yeah, he's just going to dress it up, just call and Taylor with that drew the King 10 of Spades and he's also not going to play quick groups of 763. I'm almost surprised Taylor didn't raise. before the flop of this and when he folded a phone, but it's like he knew it, but he will bet here on the flop after his opponent checked, but Jake quickly calls with the ace, the high card on the turn is an 8 which is the sword. you've opened right into him, but that gives Taylor a straight draw and a flush draw, but one thing we've learned about Taylor is that he doesn't pass thehands with a draw on the turn, he bets them for 50, most of the guys are happy. to check, get a free letter in this place, shake it.

Wow, it's going to go with everything. He's doing it with a sigh and a draw for a little more than 30, well, that's about 3 million more. You see Taylor punishing himself there, slapping his hands a little. he compounded a bet that could possibly see him excluded from this pot. He could have taken one for free today or what the hell is on TV. Hey, look at the hot rabbit. Can I bribe him to show me that means he won't do it? call this otherwise I would see that guard he left it what a play by Jake Paisley there and of course we can hunt rabbits let's take a look at that full card to see if he would have been lucky oh my goodness a seven of spades River eliminated them we didn't play head to head Mike good drop horrible result tonight's episode is sponsored by you ruin the official watch of the World Poker Tour well, the numbers will call it 10 the nominee will be our champion air vents now There you see the former champions of this event.

The remaining three players would love to add their names to the list of winners. Taylor stopped our girl by leaving axes on Taylor and they kidnapped the chip lifters. He seems like yes, he will achieve it four hundred thousand ago. Isaac came out. and now Jake with a four three of diamonds is going to defend from the big blind with the suited connectors and the flop is king queen 7 but there are two diamonds that give Jake a four flush, he checks it. Taylor, of course, will make a sequel. bet like he does every time, no matter what comes out, whether it hits him or not, and here he is betting 225k, not a big bet, in a pot that has 950k and Jake quickly calls, let's see if you get hit . a diamond not with the two of spades again Jake Jax Taylor too smart for that also passes, let's see if a diamond appears now not seven pairs the board well the only possible way Jake could win this pot is by betting.

I see it's doing it here five hundred and fifty thousand with four highs taking a chance Tanner has nothing, he has Jack I, but look at this fence, he's putting out raisin chips here, he's not going to call the cat's eye, he's going to go up with it, well, this would be another bold play on your part if you should finish it yes, he's going to raise, he's representing that he has three sevens there and he takes that pot, but how about these two guys bluffing in the river vents? WPT Champion Jerry Jaffe tells Pole Bopi to stay with him. even his golf club, but someone who is not so calm is Tony Dunst, ready to give us his opinion on tonight's game in the unfair treatment in the early years of televised poker, it seemed that bluffing was always talked about as a battle of egos. apply pressure to your opponent, intimidate him out of the pots and become the captain of the table, but in reality the morphine is more technical than psychological and making good bluffs means understanding hand ranges and board textures, let's break it down, it's Obviously the pair Taylor plays an aggressive game, but it is a form of controlled aggression and he is not blindly trying to win all the pots and when Taylor bluffs, he chooses situations where he has equity and it is plausible to have the hands he represents first .

There was a triple barrel by Taylor against Isaac Baron. Taylor flopped a straight draw against Isaac's top pair and hit both the flop and the turn, the river brought an ace which completed the backdoor flush draw and Taylor hit a third barrel at that point, there are several hands in the who bet on value, such as two sets of pairs, straights and flushes, there is not much Isaac can do. but because most of the time he calls there he will call a better hand, so Taylor made another River Bluff this time against Jake Paisley Taylor air-bet the flop and then checked behind on a brick turn, the river brought another seven. which pair is least likely for Jake to call the flop, since it turns out that Jake has a bust to draw, but when Jake river-bet 50 Taylor Made arrays designed to represent a 7, that's an added benefit to making this kind of plays sometimes.

You're not even bluffing, you're just avoiding getting bluffed, so Taylor's bluffing is based on the range of hands he places on other players and how the board is depleted, it's not an arbitrary desire to bluff. intimidate his opponents, but all of that. Aggression has made him the de facto table captain, so he'll just need to ditch the hoodie and add a tailored hat. He's definitely the table captain so far tonight at this final table. There you can see that he is in front fourteen point three million, Isaac very three. point seven Jake Paisley three point one the spot goes up to one and two hundred let's take a look at Taylor's cards holy mackerel for kings and that means another thousand dollars from the Kings draft account, it's going to raise the four hundred thousand, keep up the good work .

I think he has an ace high here, moving everything on Jake with this nine before, I don't think you can. Cohen, the guys raised, the guys never came in, he comes out and of course Taylor's inste call with the royal hand, the pair of kings. I know Tanner has been raising and three-betting consistently at this no-hands final table, now he's finally got two kings. Isaac in trouble here, so sorry, sorry, yes Heidi's grandmother Taylor is a big favorite right now. Isaac squirming in his seat. Can Isaac get lucky? no eight seven four gives you a few more outs, although yes, a good straight shot, any five will give you a straight ace, it will give you the advantage.

Taylor is still out of this. Isaac's mom, praying, friend of the poker guides, here she knows it. His son needs help, let's get it, he needs the long shot to get in, let's take a look even though Jake found one on the turn to take the lead, he's not done yet Isaac isn't jumping for joy, but he knows his opponent. He could catch a king to beat him. Taylor's parents are all the way to the river. Come on and now Isaac is the big favorite. Something stupid happens but he does it. Three of hearts in the river.

I'm going to take this one. No, how ironic is Vance Taylor's poker. i have been raising eizan's rearguard all night with nothing now i got two kings and doubled with an opponent with them we still have three players left fighting for this title this episode of the World Poker Tour is sponsored in part by draftkings if you like poker and sports and you may love daily fantasy sports and draftkings visit draftkings.com enter promo code WPT and start playing today welcome back to the World Poker Tour with the Bay 101:3 players for me, say hello to the leader in chips with 9.5 million Isaac Barron hot on his heels Oh with 9.3 Jake Paisley with only 2 points 3 has to get moving, let's go to the felt Jake Baisley in the short stack takes the ace 5 of clubs and is going to push all in Taylor out and isaac baron trapped with a pair of Queens, what a time to get it quickly of course these five versus Queens, thanks for all the bad luck Jake Paisley has had so far in these showdown battles, maybe we'll have some good luck here, he does it, can we bring that? another dealer in the báb you're doing let's see what happens but oh there's an ace like that, ace nine three, just a grateful jump for Jake Jake who flopped Isaac Jake's and I finally got a break, but it's not over, I'm still going to dodge a queen.

It would be the biggest pain for him now if a queen comes out, the turn will come, will it be a queen? No, it's a two of diamonds, let's just say Jake and Isaac seem completely discouraged from picking up queens in a 300 poker game and being way behind on the river. the card could be the miracle queen no, it's not a two of clubs it appears until 23:15 Jake Paisley will double to stay alive we still have three players left yes, I have seven and Benson consecutive hands we saw Taylor pair with two kings Lou he's making a six now we see Isaac using two queens lose with an ace five Isaac quickly folds his handshake he just doubled up, he has a decent king, 70 clubs, now he has some chips and he just comes in and calls from the small blind with the king , seven of clubs, that's never going to fly against this guy, especially the owners have an eye on Taylor with his hot tennis ace, so he's going to raise it 525 total Oh, Jake gets pushed into an instant call with ace 10 Wow, Jake, girls, I just struggled to get jumps, he could make them all up right here, crowd completely silenced, here come the first three. ace, two, two, beautiful flip for Taylor, Miss King is on fire, let's fight Jake, he will have to listen to two sevens or two kings running to win this pot, nothing else will do for him, two, two could come, they would split the boat shaking a whole. a lot of trouble as we go to fourth street it's a nine of clubs wow that's going to end no matter what the river card is Jake a super tough final table how intense was that three handed battle it seemed like it would never end worst hand only I kept winning, it's really difficult when you face two good opponents and you have to try your hardest.

What is your opinion on this hand-to-hand battle? Isaac and Taylor to the best players. I think it could last a while. Are quite. deep and have a lot of knowledge so they might as well finish quickly, although they are quite aggressive so who knows, thanks again. See you with a seven-figure plus payday at the Bay 101 shoe store. We'll chop it off again. The setup battle is about to begin at the Baby 101 casino between Isaac Barron and Taylor. PHA Royal Flush girls Jeannie and Kat have cashed in on the money these two are playing for, plus a pair of monster 24k headphones and an exquisite new kid's watch that will receive this prize. good champion before we start playing, check out the conversation I had with both players Isaac, how sweet it is to go head to head for the WPT title in your own backyard, yeah it's amazing, I mean I could never have dreamed of it, I've wanted to do it.

Well in this tournament forever and I add my friends and family here supporting me it's amazing now how are you going to beat Taylor's cheap lag? I mean, he's playing really well. I'm going to have to have some luck, but I mean I like my chances. good luck, he's fine. Thanks, Taylor and Isaac seemed to have been fighting this whole final table, is it any surprise that you two are now neck and neck to me? No, I'm not really getting into it, especially with the way the boats were. There are a lot of good players, but I thought by coming in I was taking myself out of the equation.

I'm the best player, so it doesn't surprise me at all. The head-to-head battle begins. There you see the player's chip count. Taylor par on the front thirteen points. four million Isaac Barron with seven point seven million the winners will take more than 1.2 million here we get to the action Owen Taylor has ace 5 why it's a 1 and 200 I'm certainly going to raise with this hand makes it 400,000 to call Isaac he splashes with a 10-6 defense from the big blind it cost him half a bet on the flop he has 10 3 both have some of that Taylor of course leading with aces Isaac checks he makes a continuation bet while doing it every time no matter what good things come up they will stay and pay him going to the turn the juice doesn't help Isaac and he checks back to Taylor with aces there he will slap Wow 800 and Isaac doesn't believe it.

I'm going to pay him at this point Isaac is in a bit of trouble here river card five of spades there's a curve four possible straight on the board Isaac checks again the potatoes have aces and fives now and Taylor plundering ahead that's 1 million 250 very strong and Isaac knows it now I can beat a bluff, you've seen Taylor do it many times tonight, oh but Isaac is going to fold this turns out to be a good game, but Taylor's pair increases his chip lead after making aces up there on the nine ten of hearts, his kind of tailor and he's drawing the raisin chips, four hundred thousand ago, right behind him, Isaac with ace nine, 1 million fifty thousand, well, 1 million fifty thousand is the bet now and Taylor, who can afford to make this call and looks at a flop, does so, so over 2 million in the pot h9 versus 910 when the flop is a 9 7 two for a flush for Taylor and nines Isaac obviously with a top here with a bigger kicker.

Is he going to make a bet of more than a billion? and Taylor's phone just rings here, goes into the churn, three of diamonds comes out, so Isaac comes out of it with the top pair, the big kicker Isaak 0.65, well, but one can be 6:50 and a quick call Taylor's isn't even up yet, okay. I have it all there if it had been me, but Taylor pair just calls here going to the river Taylor is behind Taylor has to get a heart or a ten, it's a five of hearts Taylor Poor's got a flush now he just has to wait for Isaac Betts It seems to me that he has to do it just you're not going to put your opponent in a flush draw Paulin goes all-in you can't blame me he asks to call there's the call Taylor pair is going to win you will never escape top pair, the best kicker, he is the champion first Matt Savage talking to a runner-up, the deepest race in a WPT 704 thousand dollars, are you disappointed or satisfied a littledisappointed but at the same time I'm quite happy with the results, so yeah?

On this massive event, I flew in a couple of days early for this event and came in via satellite very excited, whether it was the sunshine, the beautiful rooms or just the ability to re-enter if it was lit up, the field was in good spirits , if I can. write a book I can't read a book I'm going to write showing the crowd why he's the boss drinks we're at the hometown poker pro and season 12 I won't see Danny Seward season 12 companions to see Aaron Massey had a tough time day but got a lot of encouragement from some fellow pros messed up twice today you're great I'm a big drinker according to Willie he always has been yeah there's always tomorrow although he also made an appearance or was the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Last season's showdown Champion Eric F reacts.

It's been said that he'll be waiting for the last month or so, suffering from the little stomach bugs, but I think one video defender at the top of the counts was Florida poker pro Barry Hutter. The term. On the day with over three hundred thousand inches, Day One B began with some new faces gracing the field in addition to some familiar ones, including Best Bet Reward Season 13 finalists, the grizzled Hawkman and a Jared Weinstein who They are looking to cause another big stir. feel good, very good, ready, makes up for it with a huge field, there were plenty of recreational players in the mix who proved to be hard work for some of the pros in the room, new guys like women on each hand, get the job of a teammate, I just don't know what it is. going player after player he was eliminated and some are already thinking about his next bullet.

See you tomorrow, definitely see you tomorrow. Maybe I'll arrive early tomorrow. One player got off to a great start with WPT Champion Jared Jaffee. His chip build was diverted when he went to a nearby urgent care center during dinner break alongside the dedicated poker pro. He soon returned and was back in action the last two days as if my sinuses had been bothering me since the plane. I was like I couldn't even see clearly, which is probably why. I got all these chips, so I ran and got a quick Jared Jaffee survived in many ways finishing with 191,000 in chips, good for seventh place in the standings.

At the top of the chip count was Canadian poker professional Ryan Rivers with over two hundred and twenty-six thousand. Well he's number four, many previously eliminated players took another chance on the final opening day, but the field included some new contenders. I'm going to play today, if there are any.

Mike, okay, local pros and season 13 to watch skiing at Blad Missouri.

I also felt like today was his day to take a shot Vince Van Patten finally decided to join the field M quickly went all-in for his live tournament top hair I was weaned Finn's was able to accumulate chips for the rest of the day and ended up with a decent stack of almost one hundred and five thousand in At the end of the day, 570 participants had registered for the final day of the start and two hundred and twenty-two players survived to join the combined field on the second day.

We are 550 surviving players. of the initial three days, finally under one roof, is drawing it today against me as the game begins, the official numbers were published with a prize pool of 5 million dollars, 150 players would win the money and first place would be taking home $1 million plus a spot in the coveted WPT Champions Cup stealing the money in the WPT would mean a lot to me, it really would with Mike and Tony doing so well.

I haven't played many tournaments, but I think I'm exaggerating, we have a bet if I'm lucky with the plan for the field to get the money today, there was no shortage of players folding while others built up monster stacks and the pressure increased with the fortunes on the horizon. I bet a cash Mike section will be very disappointed if it doesn't come down to 151 players and in the cash bubble he beat the WPT finalists and Florida native Darryl Fish went all in with tens in hand , Bruce Snell called with ace king after a sure flop and Darrell had to duck an ace or a king to survive, but a king fell on the pitch to give Bruce the advantage. no help on the river sent Darryl home just short of the money with the open bubble burst play and the field began to thin out as players came out to the rail, including season nine players. to see Jason Mercier, Season 12 WPT World Champion Kevin Stallman, and two-time WPT Champion Darren Elias, who finished his career in 116th place, breaking a record eighth time in Season 13.

Darren was still in second place at the WPT Player of the World Championship, but still had a chance to catch him with a deep run at the WPT World Championship. Another two-time WPT champion. Most assured that Anja was going in the right direction after scoring a double knockout when his full house overcame Lazaro's hands.

Texas native Brian Greene finished second in chips and on top of the count, with Raj Bora also surviving with a decent stack with Vince Van Patten, who is focused on making a deep run XIII I'm ready, I need the money, so Mike's great look for your new partner, my friends, I'm feeling about 90% today, so you know, like a normal person, about 50% today.

Day 3 was a busy one at the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown with 92 players remaining playing until only 18 remained, three-time WPT finalist Dan hi Miller had a philosophical approach to the day ahead, each day begins to change as that fuel is starting to run out. Several players emerged with big stacks, including local Le Levy Poker pro Joey Banks and 22-year-old Griffin Pole. He keeps fighting, gets the right rods and plays well. Vince Van Patten was having a good day despite receiving some teasing from his tablemate Stephen. McCoy, that's the truth in every way.

His stack soared to almost 5 million on an ace-high table Vince Van Patten moved all in for almost 800 thousand only to be called by Sean Shark. Vince would need to get a king to stay alive, but the nine of hearts on the river ended Vince's deep runs in 27th place. I had a lot of emotions in the last three days, there are a lot of them It was fun, I won some money, I played very well and we are happy with the way things turned out after an up-and-down day until chip leader Raj Bora was eliminated in 22nd place at the hands of two-time WPT champion MOS in Tirana.
