DAY 2 lunchtime now and we all have passed to DAY 2.
Me, Garridão and Chenaudzinho.
We're all tracing strategies for DAY 2.
Each one of us have a different stack.
I have 16 blinds, Chenaudzinho, how many do you have?
Chenaudzinho is mouth full of top sirloin steak, he can't speak...
- I have 8, okay? Saving you Chenaud.
- Thirty-... 35. - How many?
- 35. - Wow, come on! Share some with us.
- Oh my gosh! - Oh my gosh!
Well, I have 16 blinds and the strategy is:
Be tranquil today
The structure is better today, with 1-hour blind.
So, it helps us, as we're in short
Play in final positions and explore the pairs.
Because the pairs at this stage of the tournament for us, handing this stack, is...
...it's time to give shot, because we can't lose spot there!
Now, all the rounds has a lot of chips involved.
Then, let's face it guys!
Tell us Chenaudzinho...
Well, in this beginning of the tournament, there are a lot of...
...a lot of different stacks, many people hold on a lot to pass to DAY 2.
So, there are many stacks with 5 or 6 blinds
7 or 8 blinds,
So, it's not good moment to open so much.
Because everytime you open, you have to pay a short.
Because, you'll be making a mistake if you open and don't pay it.
So, I guess it's time to hold the bets, pre-flop, select only the best hands to do it.
And wait for a better stacks dynamic more favorable, I guess
- Let's shot it!
As I have a very healthy stack, I can wait a little bit,
35 blinds, it's really comfortable... it's a double in the average, so the average is really tight.
What about you Garridão? Is it possible to wait?
- Oh, no!
I finished mine in short
But, that's the way turbo is. Few chips, that's enough!
- Yeah! - And this...
- ...tournament is different from the others besides being the first yet.
Because it's a DAY 2 but it's a DAY 2 with a great step, because we're going to level 19.
Normally DAY 2 starts in level 11.
So, it's a big step from an ordinary DAY 2.
- Practically, almost a DAY 3. - Yeah, practically a DAY 3 ,dude.
- Practically a DAY 3 ,dude. - Only 5% of the field is left.
So, it's a great step ahead! Way too advanced.
Garrido, I think it is the most difficult part of the tournament, because when you pass to DAY 2
You overcome the most difficult phase, which is the blind part.
Pressuring a lot. Now we have a better structure.
Let's go, guys! Brazil, DAY 2, Colossus.
Team Gorilla.
Me, Chenaudzinho, Garrido and the goal is:
- DAY 3, here we go!
- What's up Gustavão?! - What's up!?
Damn! GG Colossus, man!
Damn!
There was no way man, it didn't work well...
I had 20 blinds, then I lost a war blinds
that the guy hit a K in my head.
Then it was check-check, I was left with 11 blinds
On the next hand, I was in the button
there is a gap, I got A6
I send it, then the big has A9, man!
Then I had to hold on and I still had a tie in the river.
He won!
But it's okay man, I got the 230th place out of 18,000 people man!
- It's really good! - It's a good start!
- I can't complain, dude!
- It's really good man, the first tournament. - Damn, I already start being ahead.
- I can start it in advance, you know? So...
- ...it can't be bad.
Well, the important thing is keeping the energy up! Let's go!
Tomorrow morning,
everything starts again. 1,500 of the WSOP.
Chips on the table, man! Let's go!
Let's have some candies now, dude!
I need sugar in my blood, dude!
Look what I found here! I like it!
What's up Gustavão?!
Look the dinner break here!
Dinner break, one more dinner break to count.
Two tournaments, two dinner breaks, it can't be bad!
Now it must be 2 ITM, 2 DAY 2, 2 bracelets.
- And we have a good chance! - It's in its way!
Hey Gustavão, look what we've got here for you
Pretty good!!
Healthy dinner break, guys!
Said no one ever
I played a crazy hand now, dude! Crazy, dude!
I had bet fold in the river with top 2, dude!
It was in the beginning of the game, the first blind level.
Blinds at 25-50.
UTG opens 150 3X
Then the guy on the cutoff defends...
...the bottom defends, the small defends, I open my cards: KJ of clubs.
I call.
Then flop, K, 10, 7, rainbow.
Small check, I check, UTG check, cutoff check and buttom check
Then I said: - Okay!
Deal a small card then it's me!
Turn 4 of diamonds, opening flush draw in diamonds.
Then the small checks, I bet
UTG calls
Cutoff folds, bottom folds and small folds.
I felt good, but there was a flush draw, flush draw in diamonds
I said: Please, doesn't come up any diamonds.
To be tranquil. Neither aces as well.
Then river, J of hearts, I did top 2, then I thought a little bit and
Bet!
Then the guy thinks, thinks a little bit and comes back, dude!
- A lot, man? - No, it was like...
It was 500 - 1,300...
Damn, I can't remember it now, but it was something like this
Then I tank, tank and I gave a fold.
I tank about that for 40 seconds, dude!
Like, first level of blind,
he opens from UTG and checks flop.
that means he checks JJ, AQ, he checks.. like... there is also 89
Flop, K, T7
The 89 combination
that he checks flop and pays the turn to see the river
That the J comes up, which is the following... so it turns...
If he also has in the turn a flush draw, like a Q9 of diamonds... that he checks flop
Calls the turn and hit the river.
JJ
He checks flop, calls turn
Then I said: - Come on, man! These top 2 of mine aren't working.
Then I tank some time and fold.
Then I looked at him, like...
Expecting he gives a show down for free...
Trickster, an American trickster
he only looked at me and put a grin on his face and thrown away
Yeah, one of these things you said, he could bet on the flop.
- But, like you... - Many people, right?!
- But there were many people. - No, it also...
- Early game, right? - First level of blind is impossible to have this information
and check raise in the river, better to fold and that's it.
- Yeah, even more in the early game, right? - It's simpler. There's no reason.
- Let's have some chicken!
- Unecessary - Let's have some chicken!
There is no fold for the chicken, guys! I guarantee!
Here we go!
Arriving here at The Venetian.
Which is one of the most beautiful casinos in Vegas, for me.
It's not the most luxurious, but it's the most beautiful.
Look at this man!
It's awesome man!
Arriving here is always cool! Very pleasant!
And there is more, for me... in my opinion...
Venetian's poker room is the best poker room in the world.
In the world, for me
From all of the other I've played in my life
This is the one I feel better, for sure!
There are automatic shufflers in all tables.
the dealers, everything.
The feeling, the place... being here is cool!
Well, today, let's go for DAY 1C... the last day, my only attempt here.
But it's the Day 1C from their main event with $2,500,000.00 guaranteed!
$1,100.00. buy in.
A good structure, which we start with 15,000 chips.
40-minute blinds. Which means...
...a similar structure we have in Brazil.
The one I'm much more used to than the WSOP events that...
...has a shorter structure.
Besides that, here at The Venetian,
there is a different atmosphere to play
I like a lot
Well, lastly... yesterday we placed down in the end of the day
from the 1,500 WSOP, in the last blind level.
A hand I'd like to tell you, but, damn... the guy actually...
...ended up trying to give me his chips but the deck didn't allow it.
I had 17 blinds
I open from MP1 from the beginning of the table.
I have KK
So I raise it.
The table is turning in fold.
Then, the big blind
that had 25 blinds, he had a little bit more than me. I had 17 blinds.
He looked at me and snap ALL-IN.
Then I called showing KK and then he showed me A2 of spades, dude!
I was wondering... An A2 of spades, man!
Okay, let's go!
Then in the top an A
It's part of it taking 30%, it happens...
What I learned from this hand is... I guess he had...
...mistaken. Regardless the outcome in his hand, forgetting he has won with an A
What I think he was wrong is: Me with a 17 blinds, opening from the beginning of the table
hardly I would open in order to fold...
...because... if I receive pairs, like: 22, 33, 44, 55, 66
77.
I fold.
If I receive 88, 99, TT, JJ, QQ... I call ALL-IN... I'd call directly ALL-IN
I wont let them flat to see the flop, because I don't have stack for that.
If I have KK or AA, I'll raise to call.
There are few hands, few hands from my range
that I turn K to call fold.
Practically there isn't any. There are, but a few.
So, maybe an AJ
Depending on how the table dynamic is, I can raise and fold.
But in most of hands I will raise call
And in the hands I don't want to raise call I'll shove.
This A2 will never be good to shove.
So, his play was bad.
But in the same time, there is that old story
the surgery was a success but the patient died.
That was bad, guys. But let's go!
DAY 3 at The Venetian
DAY 3 of the first day. DAY C.
And it starts all over again.
Here is our live grind, let's go!
Let's go guys! One more day at work!
WSOP 1,500 6 MAX.
A different event, very pleasant with a different dynamic.
At the same time, it's harder.
There are many professionals, less recreational.
But, here we go!
The 6 MAX tournaments during week days isn't as good as the ones that happens on the weekend.
Because the majority of recreational players end up coming on the weekends.
Now there will be a lot of regular players, it's going to be hard since the beginning.
But the thing is... someone will win.
- Someone will win! - Here we go!
- Let's go, Crazy! -Wow!
- Let's go Gorilla! - Let's go!
Team Gorillas
Arrive here pulling pots is always good!
Take a look! We already got the first pot! Let's go!
What's up, dude?!
- Are you okay Gustavão? - I'm okay!
Oh yeah! Dinner break! One more dinner break to the count!
Now, from 6 MAX
Look, I have something to say
3rd hold'em tournament
Me and Foster, dinner break again!
For your understanding, guys
We say: get to dinner break is very important
Man! There are few initial chips in Vegas. Only 7,500.
To give you an idea, from 1,490 people that started playing this tournament, there are only 650 now
- On the dinner break there are only 1/3 of the field. - All guys have gone back home.
It's hard to get to dinner break because of the initial chips amount
Sometimes it's easier to play this 6-hour game than to pass
Absolutely!
It's a happiness to pass. I mean, to get to dinner break.
It's a huge happiness!
- Absolutely! - That's why we're so happy to reach the dinner break.
- The chance we had to bust until now is always greater than to be here
- If you take the amount of tournaments - Exactly
It's obivous,
Now we are
There's something that counts a lot
- This bedroom's energy is awesome! - Of course!
You don't understand! It's really good!
Then you think, mathematically,
from 3 tournaments, I mean, we both, 6
6 to get to dinner break, damn!
- That's awesome! - It's really good!
- We're assaulting everybody! - It's really good! Thank God!
- Let's go! - Let's go!
Great beginning in Vegas!
Let's go! Damn!
Now, it's time to work for Rio!
As we couldn't do it yesterday night, now we're going to do it, look!
Call the guy! Call the guy, Gustavão!
Let's go! Let's call the guy and bye!
Tell them what's happening here
Tell them, tell them! Explain it!
Here's the thing, we're hosted for a week in this bedroom
We're going to stay 45 days in Vegas
And we received a notice yesterday that this side of the tower
it'll be out of work because of a water problem maintenance
so, we need to change our room urgently!
Dinner break, 1h15, now we need to move and take all this stuff out of here.
And look the amount of food, water and stuff we have to spend 45 days
It's not a simple move.
Look at this disorder!
And it's only because we knew about it yesterday night, then we tidied some things already
Much better take a bad beat like this, than on the table.
It's much better, a bad beat on the room, for sure! No problems!
Bubble, hand for hand! It's been lasting long.
Oh, my gosh! It started 40 minutes ago.
Let's cheer for it, to burst as soon as possible
because it takes out the whole playability.
We're in a bubble and we have chips here, guys!
We're good. 60 blinds on these guys' heads.
I mean
I'm not going to be the bubble in anyway.
Damn guys!
Let's go!
That's all Andy!
One more to count damn!
One DAY 2 more! One ITM more!
And a bracelet! Let's go, man!
Damn!
Let's go! One ITM more to count!
Here we go DAY 2!
Let's go guys! One little paper more!
This one is for you.
- This one is inside! - This is for you.
This is for inside.
And this is for me!
Damn! Look how pleasant it is! Look!
Look how pleasant it is! Holy crap!
It's the best thing in the world, you see Gustavão?
- Look how pleasant it is! - You still need to write on the plastic bag.
Yeah! I'll write it now!
To write in the bag is also pleasant!
Look!
Man, how cool it is! Damn, it's so good!
Nothing better than passing to the next day.
As I played 1,500 on Wednesday, I placed down on the last blind level
I lost for an A2, then you start wondering... Damn... it could be one more!
And now, at the end of the day when you withdraw the chips... It's really rewarding, dude!
Come on, look at this!
Let's go guys! One DAY 2 more! Let's go!
That's it guys! Too happy !
Colossus...
Me, Fosteira on ITM, in the final lap, we almost got it!
We played 1,500 yesterday
We went well, we arrive at the end, we passed dinner break
They both are off ITM, out of DAY 2.
And today 6 MAX, 1,500 again, we both again.
On DAY 2 and ITM again!
Damn, a better start than this is impossible!
A week in Vegas, there's no time to do anything else, because we're playing all day long.
When the tournament is going well, it's about 12 hours of game.
Damn! No words for that! No words!
I'm too happy!
It's a great beginning...
...cheer, because the chances of getting a bracelet this year is really big, really big!
Let's go!
