Harry burkovich is that an unzipped hoodie on a 56-year-old man is that what poker has come to at this stage of the tournament it’s a leaderboard filled with notable Pros Brian Yun Eric Frolic Barry hutter Shannon Shaw not a bad top 10 you know whose name I don’t see up

There Antonio esfandiari and you want to know why he’s probably doing Pilates post flop I’m Lon McCarron that’s Norman Chad the one complaining about Antonio we’ll hear from Joe Stapleton Cara Scott recently had her first baby so she’s on assignment elsewhere congratulations Cara you can win the pot and you’re not

Even you’re not even in the hand and you can win the pot sh Shannon and Kelly let’s just uh strain that out not sure Kelly I love that we both have un Shannon shann I’ll be Shannon though I like that name better I think you have

To ship the chips you got to move those chips over there Shannon sha a true VIP of the game and a headliner at this feature table as he pursues the biggest title in poker I feel great coming into this Main Event I’m in the best shape of my life

Mentally and physically and I’ve been working harder than ever on my poker game um I’ve had uh a lot of you know good runs here you it’s so hard to go deep in these things cuz just you know to really succeed you have to be in the

Top 1% but that’s just kind kind of what we resign oursel to as as tournament poker players uh but I love it uh I’m feeling good and ready to ready to do in the main event Shore with 70 World Series cashes no bracelet yet folded to

Shannon on the button got a suited weak Ace blinds at 20 and 40,000 with a 5k anti a raise with his suited Ace to 100,000 now Kelly M with Ace Jack 31-year-old from Phoenix now three bets to 320,000 now around to the big blind Jamie Kaplan 5 million chips himself there but he’ll

Fold so back to Shannon Shore if the cards did change Shannon there’d be a problem it’s a weak Ace he’s got the smaller race but the bigger stack Kelly mink plays the game a number of different ways and Shannon Shore realizes that and Shannon reaching for those

Lavender chips worth 100K each that’s a four bet to 800,000 oh what did I used to say about weak Aces four bet them of course Ace Jack does diminish and value in for bet FYI the Equal Rights Movement was all about allowing women to wear baseball caps backwards as improperly as

Men do Kelly does give it up to the forb and Shore will take it down that’s some poker yeah well done Shannon Kelly M gets out played I don’t think we’re going to be saying that a lot back again for another year of the main event you look a little different I

Look pretty much the same but the game just keeps evolving well you sound the same almost piy almost witty pretty much what I’ve come to expect from you I will spare us my expectations of you back to the main event Norman what do you make of this year’s remaining field Kata

Josephi mink and Shore among others it’s a talent heavy field plus Antonio as fandi and a game that continues to Force the cream to rise to the top also of note this year no John hesp Deep Run by the way is there a liquid in which cream

Will fall to the bottom pretty much meeting my expectations at this point Kelly M despite handing chips the Shannon Shore still above the chip average which is about 2 and a half million right now currently the bust out prize is over 57,000 as we get it now over to the

Outer table Antonio sandari is sitting there he folds Deuces and walks away from the table Antonio seems to always have something else to do all right fold it over to Martin sire with Queens so is this a new trend you you put your name on your baseball cap

So if you lose it it’s easier to find sire 42-year-old danne and and how did Cory Williams next to him get onto this table he doesn’t have a baseball cap raised 85,000 by sire with the queens now to Seth f Foster with Ace King from Louisiana owns a couple of world series circuit

Rings Foster with a million s in chips and Ace King that is a three bet to 310,000 Noah can to with Ace Queen of Diamonds high school special ed teacher from San Antonio and his first Main Event sire also a first timer here 42-year-old personal trainer from

Denmark yeah and canant to will just call for 270,000 with his Ace Queen suited so now back to Cyra the original Razer do you know how I know his name is siron uh from the graphic at the bottom of the screen there no from his baseball

Cap you imle have you not been listening to me why would I listen to you all right the Queens come along so three-way action make a move flop is 106 Deuce good flop for the queens and sire bad flop for Antonio who folded Deuces Foster has the action he took

Control pre flop he says all in he has the other two covered so kantu now would have to commit all his chips to stay in the hand I don’t know what he’s thinking about this is an autofold sire waiting behind kantu kantu folds now with the Queens Martin sire

Makes the call all in he’s ahead right now seeking the double up wow don’t spike a queen no sweat I could spend this entire Main Event talking about proper etiquette one all in threee and a seven it’s a four three or seven sire still good looking for the

Double up Spates seven of Spates tip number one when ahead don’t call for cards period sire needs to dodge an ace or a king seven up Spades stand up the River card is the King of Diamonds Martin sire eliminated here on day five by Seth Foster well at least

They won’t have to ask him for an ID at the payout cage and he’ll collect 57 grand for a finish of 159th Place in the main event Foster up around the chip average now with that pot oh Sports Talk Radio Show Producer that was a good job

In the 1990s can’t check you know then what we saw Antonio s Vander miss out on his set right there he’s hanging on to his seat on day five before he picked up full coverage he nearly busted when his Kings got out flopped by Ace King oh my god

Wow sorry I didn’t mean to uh I just can’t believe it came he wakes up every morning the luckiest man west of the Mississippi he’s lucky he got that King on the turn Antonio esand diari looking at king queen right now in a raise to 990,000 backwards baseball cap backwards

Chair and he makes it all work Antonio was under the gun folded around to the big blind Jacob Kiper with a jack of diamonds yeah that bad huh Mak k for 39-year-old Canadian re raises all in me wow how much how can I fold it’s for almost 20% of Antonio’s

Stack 570,000 it’s taken 16 years but I think we found the worst t-shirt in Main Event history I believe that is referred to as highlighter yellow PO on in I didn’t expect that what’s that I didn’t expect that what do you got what come with some yum yum he’s got

A call he hates folding he loves giving away chips ah he’s cutting out calling chips how can I afford it’s like but I really think you have Queen these Queen wins yeah there’s the call congratulations Antonio as usual you’re behind okay too which one M if you want cards for

Risk Antonio with the king queen can still score The Knockout but no pain in that flop not much there for Wonder Boy Kiper still in good shape Kiper with this double up should it come true still would be short of the chip average six I’ll take it fourth Spades Antonio paying off

Already 7 what you going to give to me red tip number two don’t pay off before the river as a way to possibly reverse the river no bounce it double up complete bounce it let’s go come on nice hand where’s my where’s my boy come on you can highlight that

Hand Antonio took the hit still has over 60 big blinds in his stack Antonio chips are extra tasty Kiper still with some work to do here on day five the prepay doesn’t pay off Anton takes a bit of a hit there welcome back to the Rio allset Hotel and Casino 158 players remaining

In the 2018 Main Event right now Jamie Kaplan at our feature table is the overall chip leader we’ve got a quad alert at an outer table in the dark ball cap Cole Miller secured the fourth nine in the deck he’s all in on the river action now

On Nicola platus I think he stole that knit cap out of my sock drawer platus with King Jack to match that nit cap you know it’s amazing I just don’t expect this much headwear indoors I can see if you’re playing hockey but this platus makes the hero call James Ops folds and

Miller gets to show the world his quad nines platus goes yeah quads will do it that is good for a double and a half up and nearly an average stack now for Miller Miller has cashed at two of the last three main events got a chip count of over 2.3

Million doesn’t look too excited about those quads all right we get back to our feature table we mentioned the overall chip leader is that man Jamie Kaplan nice run here nice run in the 2013 main event for 150 Grand sitting right now with over 5 million chips to lead the

Pack a 32-year-old born in Providence but now lives in East Providence which is east of Providence right get back to the action Kaplan and two others have paid to see a flop Kaplan with pocket threes on the button Shannon Shore open Rays with king queen and the hijack and Mario mosbeck

In the big blind with 74 suited used his discount to come along there is the Flop Jack six Jack and nobody connects leaving kaplan’s pocket pair as the hand beat Shannon Shore credits jnan little and Eric Baldwin for helping him with his game early on he BS 95 Grand to Kaplan now

This guy just doesn’t look like the chip leader to me maybe a bacterial infection specialist with two pair now he comes along mosbeck finally folds seven High where heads up kaplan’s going to hang on with his pocket threes on the Flop I get it Deuce of Clubs on the turn Kaplan

Still good against Shores king queen well Shore is not going to give Kaplan credit for anything which is generally my stance with you yeah you mean on the f000 no on or off the felt 255,000 sure further testing kaplan’s resolve both these players began the hand with more than 5 million chips no

Kaplan hanging on with threes on the turn I sort of get it Kaplan is still good though with those threes and Jacks on on board nine on the River Shore left with King High you well one stab at it I would have shut down certainly two stabs at it I

Would shut down but you cannot win this pot unless you’re willing to take a third stab at it Shannon Shore a grizzled poker veteran fires again 605,000 Shore betting 60% of the pot and no insta muuk from Kaplan who’s thinking about hanging on with threes on the river now I’m lost Lon as

Usual Kaplan has been stickier than Gorilla Glue in this hand against Shannon Shore it doesn’t look like a guy who wants to fold there is the call and he will take that pot well done Jamie Kaplan well if I’ve said it once I’ve said it a thousand times you cannot

Bluff someone who looks like they might be a bacterial infection specialist and Manon every time I call three streets there my opponent has Ace Jack Kaplan with almost 6.3 million increasing his overall chip lead that side of the table anymore I’m not playing with that side

Of the table anymore no offense I want to deal with that this guy either sweats a lot or he is part of the resistance that table talk was music to Jamie kaplan’s ears his table mates sit in odd his play right there he owns the table at the moment at one point nearly

8,000 players filled the Rio many of whom were playing the main event for the first time now players like Randy La Pao gonalves and others carry the torch hoping in experiences an asset not a liability become a professional fortnite player or maybe buy a head of hair as nice as Cory

Williams Cory Williams is another first timer trying to turn his $10,000 entry into 8.8 million as we get a look at his bio board brought to you by poker go a firefighter with a knack for the game he said the adrenaline Rush he gets from playing poker is similar to The Rush he

Gets from work if he ever gets seated next to the poker brat I can think of a good use of the fire extinguisher Cory Williams at an outer feature table on the button with tricky pocket nines they’re like an undressed version of pocket Jacks raised to

85,000 Jason marof with Ace Jack in the small blind 41-year-old from Atlanta Works in packaging sales has one world series circuit ring played the main event several times but this is his first time in the money congratulations Jason now run it up from the small blind he’s going to

Three bet it to a quarter million Seth Foster folded his big blind so now back to Cory Williams with the pocket NES Williams has position on me off who has the bigger stack Cory Williams not going anywhere with that hand with position and he does

Make the call B for 165 Grand more we’re going to see a flop L that’s why we’re here and here is the Flop ah a Jack in the window for marov but it’s all diamonds a set for Williams top pair top kicker for marov wow yeah top pair top

Kicker and he has two% next to his name that doesn’t seem right marov out of position with the ace Jack Williams thinks he’s sitting pretty with those nines hates to see the diamonds AR off started the hand with 2.2 million bets 375 with no diamonds Williams moves all in with no

Diamond yeah Williams does not fool around if his opponent is on a diamond draw here he wants to make him pay for that draw now Jason marov yeah a court order couldn’t make me call here and you certainly know cord orders good for you this is it do you

Only have the ace of diamonds in your hand or not guess you just pop a set all right I fold show me I don’t think so all right all right huh I know H we’re at five Cory Williams with a nice boost to his stack couldn’t feel

Oh you didn’t it was not a full double up but a 50% bump gives Cory Williams a little more Firepower at this Main Event the bright lights of Las Vegas like beacons summoning players to potential main ofin riches this year nearly 1,200 players made the money catching up on an outer table Cliff

Josephy third place finisher a couple years back in the main event with pocket kings he’s in great shape to knock out kuna Patel all in with a Jack a safe flop for the Kings not good news for Patel 32-year-old Houston pro a king on the turn well ended Joseph he set has

Patel drawing dead seeking an exit door good work Cliff any time you bust a guy who went to Duke is a job well done Patel’s previous best Main Event finish in three cashes was 361st 6 years ago he’s got a new personal best now good Lu

To okay good job one day I’m going to go to his house and wipe that smile off his face Cliff with almost 2 and2 million now after The Knockout it was fun facts got me Johnny back gets everybody I don’t like it I don’t like it at all 154

Players remaining now average stack about 2 and a half million back at our feature table now where Kelly M is the headliner and with very good reason her Main Event record speaks for itself Kelly M just flopped trip 10 with a four kicker that’s bad because Federico Buon

Flopped trip tends with a queen kicker so in 2015 I got 29th Place I made it through to the end of day six all right now the turn cart is a queen and M drawing dead case closed I was very disappointed when I busted I just was

Like on the verge of tears I was so devastated actually being in that moment is surreal so I think this year is different in the sense that I have more experience I feel like I’m more confident in my game and I’m just ready for the win and we’re ready for more women in

Poker less than 4% of the entrance here were women and none playing the main event any better than Kelly mink we’ll keep it here at the featured table mink with over 300 Grand in World Series earnings with pocket sevens a raised to 100,000 the blinds at 20 and

40,000 Ming a University of Arizona grad then went to Arizona Summit law school players at Kelly’s table not quite sure how to read her Ray she can go with a bluff she could go with a big hand around to the big blind Ricky Pine you Shannon or Kelly Shannon’s my sister’s

Name you like your sister I love my sister all right I’m Shannon I can’t tell if you’re Shannon or Kelly for real I don’t remember I think that might be Shannon I don’t believe Pine has a sister I think he’s running a scam top set for m a wheel draw for

Pine goes check check oh that Ace on the turn is going to cost Pine he checks again I would have bet top set on the Flop that’s just me but that flop check has worked out wonderfully for m co Pine catching that Ace 125,000 from Kelly on the turn and a

Quick call from Pine who doesn’t look thrilled about it Ellie M with a hammerlock on this hand River Card 10 of clubs M three sevens will carry the day Pine checks again and the way this hand was played and the way the board ran out 3 sens

Just feels like the nuts like Shannon better anyway M bet almost 80% of the pot remember she checked the Flop maybe she has a bigger race or maybe she’s just trying to Bluff Pine off a pair Pine cashed in the 2012 main event for over 150 Grand makes a nice fold there and

Kelly M on the road to another super deep Main Event run he has six Brothers No Sisters Kelly M now over 3.2 million chips I think that should say poker Pro attorney check her billable hours for the last 6 months from the featured table we head out into the field where Frederick Brink

On the right who managed to turn 108 into Aces crackers those Aces held by Brian Altman on the left on the completed board Brink B 810 th000 with his King High straight Altman 29-year-old Massachusetts Pro bring 35-year-old from Denmark and Alman raises to put Brink all in wow wow this

Is for Brink’s Main Event life Spades got there a higher straight is also out there Alman and baling to make this play with the Ace of Spades in his hand oh Brink from Denmark thinks something might be rotten he’s a poker player and restaurant owner there as Brink thinks we’ll show you

What happened back on day four Alman picked off a bluff from one of the most intimidating players in the game your guy Phil Ivy yeah my guy Bluff shoved on the river with pocket nines Altman thinking a long time with top two pair he made the correct call and Ivy

Made his exit from the main event on day four yeah thanks for coming buddy and don’t forget to take off your headphones when you go to the caves to cash four cashes at this world series for Ivy including in the Colossus Alman using that ivy move here against Brink

Now well here he is turned pocket aces into a bluff shove on the river Frederick Brink after lots of thought makes the call and he doubles into the chip lead that was a great play by Alman that was a great call by Brink boy the Mantra

Of No Limit Texas hold him is make your opponent squirm Alman did that but Brink was up to the task he’s now the man to beat the best poker content on the internet your super high roller bow seven Champion oh yeah wheels are coming off that’s the craziest hand I’ve ever

Seen what was that fight go to get. go.com yt4 for $20 off a new annual subscription Frederick Brink was put in a tough position but after some careful deliberation he came to the right conclusion a huge double up gives Brink a whole bunch of new ammunition during a

Break our Joe Stapleton caught up with the new chip leader Frederick was involved in a major hand today with Brian Alman Frederick went in the tank for 15 minutes Fred when you’re in the tank that long what are you thinking about for 15 minutes a clock on Fred’s answer here whenever

You’re this is going to sound like a backhanded compliment but that’s not that might be Joe stapleton’s greatest interview ever Joe called the clock on an interview subject I wish I had those guts Brink has w a lot of money around the world in poker but little success in

The US that could change very soon let’s get to an outer table we find poker pro Barry hutter he’s had a lot of Poker success as well and now trying to find success on the links when I’m not playing poker uh I’ve taking up golf in

Las Vegas Pro won a bracelet in 2015 now Cory Williams on the button with a weak Ace and does the right thing with a weak Ace Jason marov in the small blind with a big Ace Ace Queen marof won his circuit ring in 2016 at Harris Cherokee in a field of

984 marov working with a stack about a million below average he makes the call Foster folds his big blind so where heads up Mar off and hutter hutter likes to go with the white T-shirt to cut down on the time it takes to make clothing decisions every morning not a bad choice

The Flop 85 trade top pair for hutter Ace Queen for marof in need marov checks well when you’re raised with 98 and flop top pair you bet it I know that much I also know the names of at least 30 35 state capitals 75,000 from hutter marof comes along after his check

They make t-shirts that are supposed to be untucked hats that are meant to be worn backwards has got to be next no another tray on the turn two pair for huter now mirov checks again huter checks back pot control from hutter or maybe some deception 10 of

Hearts on the end so huter is best after raising with 98 marov checks the third time and huter reasonably comfortable now that his eights are best and with the eights and the trays on board he bets 305,000 marof confused by hutter’s Stutter Step he bet the Flop checked the turn it’s

Possible huter missed a spade or straight draw and is just trying to buy the pot here as he gets the call from marov and hutter will take that pot of over 1 million yeah this guy is not just a Pros Pro he’s a Pros Pros Pros Pro indeed he

Me Kelly got no piece of that flop what does Kelly do with no piece of that flop raises the action to 400,000 check Rays on the Flop usually signals a very strong hand in this case it’s very squat douche and a mean meets that check rise

With a raise all in and Kelly folds immediately well there’s a reason this has a poker coaching blog well done sir Kelly turned up the heat on a mean but he had a real hand and a shorter stack he wasn’t going anywhere Kelly mink plays fast and occasionally she is

Main Event everyone here on their feet awaiting this outcome impr probably neither reach the final Table in 2015 Kelly Mink’s Main Event run ended on day six I got 29th Place I was so devastated will 2018 be the year a woman cracks the main event code will it be Kelly mink 3 years wiser I have more experience I feel like I’m more

Confident in my game and I’m just ready for the win time’s almost up on day five so it is time to State your case the biggest event on the poker calendar rolls on from the Rio allset Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas the footprint getting a little smaller as we

Move close closer to the final table I’m laon McCarron along with Norman Chad and Joe Stapleton 131 players left from the second largest starting field in history Bart leeart leading the way but the chip lead is always precarious 09 Main Event champ jata is a huge story this year the

Kid is smart friendly and good we could all use some of his jeans smart friendly and good that could describe Benjamin poac too some guys have it all I don’t you definitely don’t but this poock character definitely does clip Jo if he finished third 2 years ago he’s a force

To contend with if he weren’t so smart friendly and good I might root for him by the way where are all the villains attorney turn poker Pro Kelly mink is making a run worth paying attention to she is the definition of guts never met a bluff she didn’t like never met a pot

She didn’t try to win Kelly is not in the top 10 she’s hovering just below average but other big names have accumulated Stacks Brink Yun Frolic all 5 million as day five works to its conclusion a review of our featured table lineup sh Insurance e seven mink

In eight I’m sorry do we have heckin and jein at the feature table actually it’s pronounced jeel looks like jackling to me it does well Mr jeckel raised it up to 125,000 with pocket Deuces Peter Campo came along with Queen 10 of diamonds Kelly M as well with 65 of clubs three

The Flop Jule with the biggest stack at the table Queen 45 two Spades M has checked already with middle pair Campo wearing a patriot shirt which makes him b n grata in the Chad household it does go check check check third Spade on the board Campo still

Best with his pair of queens jekal is a rugby fan that’s okay unless Robert Craft owns the team he roots for man checked it too jeal he’s got the only flush draw of the three but he’s got the deuce of Spades so he checks Campo 39 from Connecticut poker

Army veteran he puts together 200,000 200,000 now M had a piece of that flop oh a lot of those greens worth 25k each that is a check raise to 550 m is nothing if not active and creative we’ve seen her use that check raise before Oh there’s the cough

Fold Jule folds the pocket pair well campone never should have bet there he opened himself up to the check rays and then what’s he going to do when she fires a million on the river Campo with the best hand and he should have bet there I’m just giving him a you know little

Grief and he does make the call for 350 more I wonder if Kelly would buy a backwards hat that was meant to be worn backwards not of diamonds on the end so Campo is best well the straight got there Spade flush already out there will Kelly M fire again yeah with campo’s

Call after the turn he had to have some doubts Kelly now checks again and he might be content to check this back yeah he does indeed and so his pair of queens will take that pot from Kelly mink and maybe another bullet would have want it

For Kelly well she gave up there and she’s been going in the wrong direction on day five Ming down Campo above 5 million now Campo Smiles it’s nice to win without having to deflate the chips take care of the remaining 132 players Kelly M is one of the more well-known though not a

Full-time Pro she plays like one striking fear in her opponents because as she is demonstrated she’s capable of anything at any time I am Leary of lawyers lawyers are leery of lawyers but I am not leery of Kelly M I admire her passion I admire her skill I even admire

Her sunglasses which I would never wear nor could I afford what about the v-neck sweaters and backward hats do you want to go all red carpet on us now well clothing is not my strength we both know that yeah Norman everyone knows that

What I do know and I know what I know is if Kelly can Bluff a little less she might get a little more out of this Main Event Kelly mink certainly one of the bigger stories here on day five as her move away from Law Firm life is paying

Off so I took kind of a sabatical life I um parted ways with the law firm at the end of last year um and now I spent a lot of time traveling playing some poker but mostly traveling and just enjoying some time off and I’m currently working with a

Good friend of mine from law school and we’re planning on opening our own firm I’m planning on doing mostly personal injury and then my partner is going to do criminal and family law personal injury she should be able to drum up a lot of business just from

Poker players with bad beats La woke up with pocket kings here in three bet Shannon Shore to 34 th000 Shore famously sustained his own personal injury in ‘ 07 with a 12T fall from a Ledge in his living room onto an air mattress suffered fractured vertebrae Queen nine

Of clubs is good enough for Shannon to come along heads up the Flop is Queen 710 sh likes top pair but it will come up short to Ms two kings Kelly has the action 285,000 from the pocket kings sha was best man at fellow poker Pro Jonathan Little’s wedding Shore says little

Taught him why be raing weak players at the table is a bad idea similarly I hardly ever berate Lan in the booth sure with three times the stack as M and he raises to put Kelly all in and there’s the quick call with the Kings mink Envision double up as soon as she

Saw those kings now with a great shot at coming true Kelly’s reputation probably earned her Shannon Shore’s action here Shannon a non-believer and will risk onethird of his stack in an effort to bust mink Kelly mink looking at a pot of 2 and half million coming her way she’s a

Heavy favorite sh picks up outs with the open Ender man picks up a straight draw Shannon actually picked up three more outs than he had after the Flop m one clean Street away from a double up I knew I should have crossed my fingers before my second

Marriage the River card now Kelly M’s tournament life at stake and the five of clubs misses Shore and M will score the double up shore takes the tough beat to drop him below an average stack as Kelly doubles to keep her day five hopes afloat a roller coaster start for Kelly

M big loss big gain back where she started the longtime home of the World Series of Poker the Rio housing just 126 players now in the main event Bart leeart looking to be the first player to cross the 10 million chip Mark to an outer table the 11th Place finisher in

The 2016 Main Event had all his chips at risk but John sin on screen right manages a double up with top pair sin base out of La still short of an average stack but still in the game who are the rest of the players at this table look

Like a group of Impostors is this the Main Event John sin getting his double up handed to him adding to his career World Series winnings exactly how much he’ll add is in the cards as they say I honestly don’t believe anybody else at this table’s ever been to Lo Vegas

Before today other than John sin and I don’t even remember him from the 2016 Main Event John sin as we mentioned is not a first timer at the main event but he no doubt remembers what it was like to run deep the first time around Randy lag from Houston Texas I’m

In the energy business raised 9,000 day one it was cold and I wore a hoodie I’m not a hoodie guy right and I wore sunglasses cuz I don’t like the light in the room and so now I’m a hoodie and sunglasses guy cuz like it’s working so I’m not going to change what

I’m doing my wife for my birthday bought me a seat she was like I’m going to buy you in I’m going to take care of the kids go have a good time button’s good blind’s and n’s please if it ended right now it would be enough I’m not planning on that

Though I’m Nan sh I’m from India I’m started playing profession since last 2 years and finally I’m here I just keep zero expectation I don’t think about like going deep my strategy just to play that’s all my name is Paulo and I’m from Brazil I’m Christian and the necklace is just

To have a blast check for yourself I’m playing very I don’t know the RO in English but tranquillo my family is attending Good Vibrations feels great just to be here I think in the biggest tournament in the RO I think everybody should just enjoy the moments apparently all first timers now

Show up with hoodies Shades earbuds or backwards baseball caps poker code all right get back to our featured table been very active here on day five under the gun is Peter compo King Jack of Hearts okay we’re all one big community in poker if you’re going to

Get two waters for yourself you should get water for the entire table I agree very good point Keo raised it up to 120,000 he’s got about double the average tip stack right now Ming with another pocket pair eights here and she makes the call that’s Jamie Kaplan nine8

Of clubs 32-year-old from Rhode Island chip leader earlier here on day five and he calls as well Andress jeal Ace nine of diamonds and he comes along now to the small blind Ahmed Amin Ace five a lot of people like that hand but I mean

Folds Ricky Pine gets rid of it so four players will see this flop I believe this flop will miss everybody a lot of cards out there to miss the flop Queen 107 rainbow campos’s open ended M has the best made hand Kaplan open ended as well jeele with ace

High so Norman you’re 50/50 there yeah remember Don Henry’s Golden Rule a 10 on the Flop always helps somebody Kaplan has a check to him he is apt to opt to commit chips rather than check and he does 175,000 sheds jekal well he’s not going to shed

Campo Campo with the big stack makes the call of 175 and Kelly gets out of the way folding the best hand tough to carry on with all that action so we’re heads up a tray of diamonds on the turn Campo still best of course my Golden Rule is a tray

On the turn never helps anybody Kaplan probably not in the mood to slow down yeah from the little we have seen from Kaplan he can be very aggressive and here he goes again he bets 450,000 Campo with the right price to call here because he’s actually a head in the hand

King high is best there is the call Pot building to almost 2 million King of Spades on the end that should ease campo’s fears a little top pair for him yeah but Campo likely would just want to get The Showdown for free to see if his kings are

Good don’t know what Kaplan will do he he’s a betting machine he can’t win here at Showdown with nine high will he wave the White Flag or if you don’t have a flag a handkerchief will do nobody carries a handkerchief anymore all in WoW or you can go all in bluffing off

Your main event if you get CAU wow the day five Bluff shove at the main event if I still had hair on the back of my neck it would be standing up he is a gutsy young man River the king did Campo that was a big gulp there from Kaplan but it’s Campo

Who’d have to take a big gulp to make this call for most his chips Campo thinking I know I’m best but I don’t want to pay the price show The Bluff it’s like that’s the one hand like nine Jack gets there Kaplan with a well earned infusion

Of chips up to 4.6 million takes a special type of Poker nerve to put all your chips in the middle with nothing all right over to our feature table in the wings now Cliff Joseph he’s on his feet and looking a bit uneasy despite Allin pre- flop with pocket kings

Michael Dyer called the huge shove by Cliff of 3.7 million with Ace King of Club so here we go King still good it’s clean for josephi third at the 2016 Main Event still good after the turn only an ace would send Johnny backs home River card is an ace

Oh that’s why didn’t want to look hey out Cliff calling for his own escort to the payout window and in a Flash the prettiest card in the deck becomes an ugly finish to Cliff Joseph’s Main Event a better than average stack looking for an all you can eat special ends with a

Severe case of indigestion for Cliff Josephine the best poker content on the internet your super high roller bll s Champion oh yeah wheels are coming off that’s the craziest hand I’ve ever seen what was that fight go to get. go.com yt4 for $20 off a new annual

Subscription and Ace on the river and clip Joseph’s main event is done clip joins a host of Big names on the rail as Joe Stapleton documents for us it’s day five of the World Series is a poker Main Event yesterday day four was what a very wise Englishman once called the post

Bubble bustout bananza we had a lot of notables go broke yesterday lot of names to get through here here we go Eugene catov caught a hanger surge Jake Cody went Code Bluey David Yan gonna have to try again Jamie kurur at the poker Gods cursed at Patrick Antonius his presence

Is erroneous Johnny Chan is Ganny Chan Tom makoy won’t be bavo bnell Bick nope do haml got pomel jet jettison nville no more rtin mayor see you later Kai by-bye Elias good buas Frankie flowers is Pushing Daisies Dominic Panka no longer in thank you high Miller by Miller

Greenstein gonin Brunson Dunson Ivy took a DIY Hello Dolly goodbye Dolly men win men lost Nick shman brick shman Allan Cunningham no longer in the running ham unfortunately I did not have a joke for either manic loser or Michael nowinsky sorry about that guys back to you I’ll tell you you

Can’t traes with stapes he’s in good shapes payout still at 57k right now for a bit longer 8.8 million to our champion this year the top nine will win at least 1 million at an outer table nicolaas platus on his feet and if that hat weren’t bad enough he’s got pocket

Jackson is all in against Joe Kata with Ace 10 suited by the way how long do I have to stare at this guy on the rail with the designer shorts all right here’s the Flop no Ace no Spades for Kata platus is safe with that flop he

Looks thrilled platus is good with the four of hearts on the turn he looks thrilled River card is another Jack to hammer home the win and the double up through Joe looks like he just lost and why am I still staring at this guy in the designer shorts C it began the hand

With just over 3 million it was less than 10% of his stack to call the Allin so it’s an easy and short payoff even while getting a massage yeah I hate paying out an Allin while getting a massage platus finally gives us a little smile after doubling up at the biggest

Game in town it’s still a long way to go to get an Aver stack for that gentleman all right platus does not become a statistic but we’ve lost a few down to 122 hopefuls now let’s check in with one of our two outer featured tables where

Shawn Dee is seated Shawn won his third bracelet a couple of weeks before the main event he has opened the pot with seven six of diamonds Mike jukic now with pocket jacks on the button I don’t know where to start with him so I won’t 34-year-old from Lynchberg Virg

Virginia and he just calls enjoying his first main event cash Peter Lee I’m still looking at jukic the sleeveless hoodie this is something new and I just don’t know how to react I am Frozen with fear Lee with Ace Queen 35 years old from Jacksonville Florida biggest stack

At the table with over 7 A5 million and he’s going to three bet it to 390,000 with Ace Queen you know Shawn De sticks around he will be favored in this three-way pot since Ace queen and the laon mccar memorial hand are Stone Cold losers hey there’s EPO Eric Frolic

A Hall of Famer Magic the Gathering Hall of Famer he folds and now back to sha deep who opened the action with seven six of diamonds and got blown out of the water now back to the Jacks and jukic plus jukic went to Radford University which I thought was a tattoo free educational

Zone I stand corrected jukic comes along for 285 more who you got Lon uh I got to take Ace queen I’m taking the Jacks we are both underdogs Norman all right here we go to the Flop finally and there’s a Jack and a queen and an eight all hearts jukich with a

Set Lee catches a queen and the nut flush draw that is a flop for the ace Queen pocket Jacks ages step back Norman this pot could explode oh lee also with a tattooed arm but he did not go to Radford man I think we’re about to see a

Lot of chips get into this pot 375 from Lee possible flush out there straight cards out there if this board were any wetter it would be surfing in the Pacific jcit is not going to slow play his set jukic does raise to 985 jcit wants to see where he’s at just

Like we used to do in the 70s when I played on an oil rig off the coast of Arkansas and there is a three bet to put jukich all in juk has to decide if he’s going to play for all his chips I I think there’s little doubt that he

Will is it time to do this just a million behind for jukic yeah and there it is he does call All [Applause] In so jukic ahead but Lee with a bunch of outs by the way Arkansas doesn’t have a coastline it did then two cards to come nine of diamonds

Lee loses a nine of Hearts as an out Lee still looking for a heart to knock out jukic the River card is another Jack quad alert for jukic as he makes the pocket jacks work against Ace Queen I tell you we have seen some very calm dispositions on almost all of our allins

In day five everyone acting like they’ve been there before whether they’re wearing a jacket or whether they’re sleeveless Ace Queen living up to your billing Norman Chad way to go Mike jukic working off some of that adrenaline he’ll sit back down to a very healthy

Chip stack late on day five of the main event never a dull moment in Las Vegas Lon McCarron Norman Chad and Joe Stapleton on hand bringing you day five coverage of the World Series of Poker Main Event the 2018 Edition and Norman let me say this quickly before it

Changes two women are left in the main event Kelly mink and that woman Natalie tay but Natalie’s pocket Jacks ran into the aces of Michael Dyer only a river card can keep Natalie playing Dy about to put the last nail in the coffin for this Lon McCarron Memorial hand yeah

That is more like with pocket Jacks Natalie Tay Out of the main event a very nice run but pocket Jacks Are her demise Michael Dyer with almost 11 million chips now Tay 28-year-old from Malaysia in her first Main Event quite a run out of nearly 8,000 entrance a tremendous accomplishment well done Natalie

Tay all right so for the second time in four years Kelly mink is the lone woman left in the main event and she looks down at Ace Queen yeah nearly 8,000 entrance only 301 women though Kelly with about 1.8 million in chips a raised to 120,000 she’s an early

Position the last woman in the field ahed Amin now Queen Jack of Spades in the cutof 44-year-old Egyptian living in Seattle now former engineer he cashed in the 2014 main event and from his 63 big blinds he wants to play and Amin will commit the chips to

Call Kelly M says she got fatigued in 2015 on days five and six but thinks she’s better prepared for the grind this year the button in both blinds fold so heads up mink has a mean dominated Kelly mink under the chip average a mean right about the chip average at 3.2 million

They’ll see a flop all undercards keeping mink and ahead with Ace Queen and she’ll check out of position aan is the last married renier Polytechnic Institute grad in the field oh come on I doubt you asked everyone 160 bet 160 he is I do my research sir I mean bet

160,000 he’ll take a stab at it ell M comes along with the ace Queen yeah she does not like giving up on pots you want her as your personal injury lawyer pairs the board on the turn M checks again am me thinks with his left hand but he Bets with his right

Hand I think Allan Cunningham invented that move 250 he fires again 250,000 yeah I like him stabbing at this one again will she again spring the cze Rays with Squad douche Kelly has been known to go off the beaten path of Poker lines but this time she will fold Ace

Queen is a loser again I like a mean’s game yeah he takes the pot that could have gone either way mink playing cautiously with a shrinking chip stack she sits behind less than half the average of the field right now let’s go to an outer table where last year’s

Third place finisher sits Benjamin Pac Pac making another run at this title after busting on a very memorable hand just a year ago all in all in and he says all in now to the chip leader and he’s got Ace Queen he makes a call and his favored to

Score the double knockout for the title and now for the flop of the tournament a king for a to take the lead both poak and blumstein with straight draws what a moment poock needs an ace or a nine or he’s done the River card a six and not

Takes the whole pot poak is gone in third place I started this tournament wanting to finish in 117 poak with pocket H is called the Allin of that guy Adam Roode with Ace six of hearts and here is the Flop and poak with bottom set rude and a deep hole rude 34-year-old alleged

Seafood logistics and distribution manager from Nashville manver he’s packing up Norman not a good idea the river turn C seven of diamond well ended rud is drawing dead bringing his main event to its conclusion I would have thought with a $3.5 million score poak could have bought some wireless earbuds even I’ve

Converted so Pac now with 4.7 million here on day five he ended day five last year with 5.7 million show the TV you want to show that this whole day who is that his name is Dan the B man Chambers and why do you wear probably on the rail if should go

Get them right back there that’s D the B man chamber but why do you wear his face because he made a mistake of sending me this picture see well a good story but no remaining chips Adam Roode out via Benjamin pac’s Full House as the field gets Smaller Benjamin Pac Kelly mink Joe cata three big Nam still alive as we approach a 100 players remaining the average stack about 3.4 million You’ got to keep moving ahead of that average number Joe right now has about 2/3 an average stack I used to be a bus boy we’re used to

Living on crumbs elsewhere comedian Clayton Fletcher with about half an average stack I also used to be a standup comedian they’re also used to living on crumbs and our boy Bryant Alman up and down now with one quarter an average stack I used to have a beard

Shaved it because I kept getting crumbs in it let’s get to an outer table a very juicy board out there with flush and straight possibilities Tony miles at the far end has a queen High straight with an AI flush draw to his left is Steven fed Spiel with two pair and a straight

Flush draw miles 32-year-old Pro living in Orman Beach Florida feder Spiel living in North Liberty Iowa miles raises fed Spiel all in who calls off his last chips with one card hard to come fetsh Spiel must have predetermined that when he raised the turn he would

Call a r ra that predetermination was an error of course there are no doovers in poker though doover poker has a nice ring to it no not really ffield comes up empty he is done let’s go Tony Tony miles the fortunate one on that board and he’s got over 7 million

Now the Steph Curry outer is working for Tony miles he doesn’t have a lot of experience at the World Series payout window but having a nice run so far at this year’s Main Event feder Spiel headed to the payout cage and then the laundr 114th Place Tony miles acting like he belongs

Blinds in danger of being scooped up by nerat ran Alman 29-year-old Massachusetts Pro ran from Jacksonville Florida and here is the Flop a bleak flop for Altman Ace King still good for ran turn card another queen won’t help alman’s case it comes down to the river Altman politely and stoically awaits the

River and his main event fate the River card is the six of Hearts ran holds on Brian alman’s active run is done he had a ton of chips at one point now he is heading for the exit ask Not For Whom the Bell Tolls it tolls for the

Man who knocked out Phil I ran will stack the winnings now building his stack to almost 5.6 million long walk to the payout cage how would you know that I’ve heard talk I wonder if the backpack will ever replace the briefcase on Capitol Hill hman with his first made of it cash

14 career cashes at the World Series of Poker back to our feature table the continuing Adventures of Kelly M down to a million chips now folded to her on the button with king8 what should I call my backwards Hat Company how about the No Frills no bills herdashery

I’ll ask someone else Kelly with a raise to 130,000 folded to the big blind Andress jeal jeal with an uplifting t-shirt I believe those are roses 107 not uplifting he calls for 70,000 more with a stack of almost 5 million 107 I would unwrap a starburst while I

Was Folding It Ace Queen Trey missing both players M’s King high is the best hand Kelly’s going to continuation bet here like a 100 times out of a 100 maybe more 95,000 is that continuation bet 107 off sir 107 off didn’t get the board maybe he’s going to float

It no he is putting out a depth charge a raise to 265 nice jaal with a Next Level read figuring a mink is weak and he is right Bravo jeeko giving his best Argentine glare to Kelly mink now all in and the radar is fully operational

Kelly comes back over the top and Jackal folds what the heck I have no idea how Kelly M moved in there an incredible play I will only invite her to my home game if if I have a personal injury matter to discuss sheele absorbs the small blood with stack and ego Kelly

Mink and trying to rebuild her stack into relevance she did get some much needed chips oh after a great and gutsy all-in move day five of the main event on its last legs here in Las Vegas as is New York Comic Clayton fletcher5 8 with Ace King and 865 Grant

Fletcher all in Randy lack has called with Ace Jack and the standup comedian does what comes naturally to him lack one of our first timers we lost Kevin poock and Ray Romano earlier in the main event but we still have one comedian left Mr Fletcher 14 big blinds in the

Middle trying to to hang on somehow no the guy at risk has Ace King the other guy is not at risk no matter he’s ahead with Ace King he’s still ahead with Ace King far so good Chad you’re doing fine doing fine okay he’s got some more

Out going to need a nine or a Jack on the river else Clayton Fletcher’s going to double is he a standup comedian or a poker announcer the three on the river gives him his double up keep your day job Clayton I’m glad you didn’t say because

Usually when they say that then it hits right of course it’s not true but it feel Fletcher with his second deep deep run at the main event in the last four years getting back to our feature table this group has remained intact for quite a while now on day five no Knockouts

Under the bright lights that’s fine with Orlando poker player and stayathome D Ricky Pine who finished 52nd in the 2012 main event and we talked about the money maker effect look at this Dorman I don’t know about this it’s not like it’s the Olsen twins that’s pretty strong Ricky Pine is

Under the gun with Ace King race 140 ra to and from his 2.2 million stack he’s going to raise it up he loves being an at home dad for his four kids Ella Dexter Ryan and Olivia Shannon Shore folds to Kelly M the short stack at the table now with

Pocket sixes I love Kelly saying I’m going to win it she’s been very active maybe too active for her own good yeah that’s a good point a lot of people though just sit back and wait for it to happen and often it doesn’t happen in poker Kelly is

Being very active she does call for 140 Ace for Kaplan yeah well this Ace King loves applying pressure a three bet here is a given come on wow he raises all of his chips of course he’s got one of the bigger Stacks here he’s got everyone on

The table covered except for Peter Campa who already folded now to jekel 10 eight of diamonds on the button goes into the muck a mean folds back now to Ricky pine pine almost 35 bigs left in his stack this has got to be go time you know if Kaplan happens

To have Aces or Kings then so be it what would Chris Money Maker do Co he calls all in mink folds her pocket pair pins no had she only known it was Ace King against Ace King Pine the shortest stack with the most to lose but it is Ace King against Ace

King that club is pretty live it is so is that diamond let’s just chop this one no blood no blood all right oh I want blood I want blood flowing off this table all the way to the poker Kitchen Pine at risk here and a couple

Of clubs for Pine is on a free roll said no blood you’re good you’re good you’re good okay I am free rolling you and I am feeling a lot better than you right now but you’re good make it exciting Peter make it exciting I don’t want you to lose just make it exciting

Turn C oh another club I go make it exciting wow poker what a game we’re we’re playing yeah if we get another club on the river Kaplan would lose almost half his stack it probably won’t be a club right most of the cards are

Not Club most of the time it will not be I think it’s 50/50 with the cards that are left I’m not a mathematician but that sounds wrong no you’re a historian that’s correct one card to come the River card a red four and they will chop it up

That’s dirty check your blood pressure yeah it’s actually not too high right now we’re at 95 where it was higher for the for the 98 be higher for the shorts deck so Pine keeps his seat and 39 big blinds Kaplan with about twice that and

A sigh of relief at that Red River resit no blood but it was close Pine and Kaplan do chop it up day five rolls on well that’s what it looks like outside the Amazon room a torrential downpour in the desert unlike any that we have seen here in a long long time

Mostly dry though inside the Amazon room yeah no matter how hard it rains you can still always play poker and you can still always Bowl gave you a little wind Peter you were right it was it was fun that there was a club on I felt bad though was like

Peter was about to be out of here I know I didn’t mean who was the first person to say players should wait to look at their whole cards please just get your cards and look at them do you really want everyone watching you when you peek Campo under the gun raised with pocket

Force to 140,000 Kaa one of the big Stacks in the room the biggest at this table Andress jeel now with Ace King he makes the call on the button mosbeck thinking about it if you’re going to go with the headband by the way I’d also go with matching wristbands that’s next level

Fashion I like that suited Ace on the button I remember a couple days ago they were saying transition mck does fold 7,874 entrance second largest Main Event field ever in ‘ 06 the year Jamie gold one we had 8,773 in the field I think there something more interesting to ask Campo

And jeo will see a flop seven dece 10 the pocket force of Campo Stand Tall oh what the heck now we’re having some power issues with that storm there’s bad weather Peter che’s in the dark John nordal the flooran with the line of the year it’s the main event no lights

Nobody moves Lan Soviet troops could be marching into the Rio and I guarantee you poker would continue There Are No Soviet troops anymore Norman I know what I know so an amazing scene here at the World Series of Poker main event where a power outage has struck the Amazon room

And players are frozen in their tracks reporters and players using their cell phones when they can to illuminate the tables one cats come on the top yeah I wish I would know how you do 10 43 4 four yeah okay look I wish I wish I wouldn’t

Know how how it works okay look he’s doing magic in the dark that would seem to be an unfair advantage to the magician yeah he used to perform magic he’s gotten together with Antonio s vandar he’s a talk shop but quite an amazing moment here I don’t know I guess

I’m confused as everyone else what do you think what do you think is kind of the mentality of the room right here do you think guys are thinking well maybe I can go home and get some sleep or they want to get these lights back on um I

Don’t know I mean it depends how soon they can turn it back I mean if they can turn it back on soon I’m sure everyone wants to play it out but if not I mean we all want to probably you know not waste time at home or whatever it may be

Yeah I mean this is kind of this is eating up sleep time right yeah I mean it’s long hour so uh some of us don’t sleep as well as others but I don’t know we’ll see what happens so if they turn these lights on you’re ready to go of course make thanks

The massage doesn’t even stop well if they can’t continue they would oh and the lights are coming back on so maybe there’s some hope well I’m glad men the master busted already going to take you back just a couple of minutes to show you some immediate reactions around the Amazon room when

The lights did go out here Main Event day five the lights just went out at R holy unique experience for everyone here and of course we are in the last level of action on day five so it’s possible that if they cannot continue the tournament officials will just stop

Play and pick it up tomorrow funny that it just rains in Vegas and everything goes to hell this is brand new to me but it seems like I have the same same chips as when the lights went out so no one took any what about the feelings still

Going to be alive day six the main event yeah that’s uh yeah that feels amazing and even having a stack to to be able to play and so on so I’m just looking forward to it they have called the day here players will get an early evening Houston’s Michael Dyer the only player
