big fan of the midnight podcasts

Thanks Papi, that was a cool podcast, it had GoT, lucy in the sky with diamonds & some fine bits of info regarding life. What made it so good was Brian ofc as as he said you let him flow, maybe should have let him finish the bottle 1st before asking brian about the Viffer/durrrr stories lol. So get yourself down do to Brazil Papi to check out the finer thing in life
And yeah he was smashed at the end haha.
Tbh its the 1st PC i have watched all the way through without doing something else. F**k i'm wasted too lol gn PAPI

Great as always Papi, like you said in chat, I can see this podcast getting even bigger and bigger.

I think you are a lock to being an honorary guest in Camp Epic at Burning Man and we'll all want a detailed trip report, but we'll worry about that later. It seems like Brian and Jeff will be returning guests to the podcast which will please everyone but I think you're next pick of the litter in their group is Phil Laak. He will be awesome and I honestly wouldn't know what to expect...will he be able to concentrate and stay on track? Will he be more subdued than usual? How much of it will even be poker related? Regardless, it will be a fun time and I know 100% you're going to nab him as a guest. Cheers papi.

to much crack is a bad thing

If they're stopping fpps for 5/10 and above, surely there will be a drastic rake decrease for those games?

It makes sense for them to make changes like this since it's so easy for hs players to exploit the reward system.

I agree amaya is approaching these changes horribly but i have absolutely so sympathy for any pros

Also wanted to address a point this Dani kid kept bring up, how hs players are pokerstars best 'customers'..
I don't know the numbers but I'd think the profits for high volume, lower stakes rec players is almost identical if not higher

HS players are not PS best customers, there are no one like Guy L around these days to fund the HS games so all the money taken out of HS by Ben86 and Isildur etc comes from small deposits working its way up (until those 2 are taking 5-10m out this year alone).

PS doesn't want HS players, no sites do these days.

No bodamus around, no kandela around, no trout around, no imaginequeen around. Nobody around anymoar...
Would be cool if you just stop poasting bra

This Kate Hall girl seems to have a lot of confidence. Interesting to see where she is at in 5 years.

I thought I posted the Cate Hall link but I guess it didn't work properly





Double podcast day depending on when you woke up

Love Rast firing shots about Schulenberg (sp?). There's no doubt he's the worst interviewer in the game.

Another good podcast.

rast podcast was great, gross podcast was horrible

Get Isai Scheinberg on pokercast
ask him what he thinks of the changes, and how`s life been so far

Joey are u getting anybody else similar to ansky to comment on recent stars vip changes any time soon?

^^^

Gross podcast was not really in depth but you can't expect Ben86 insight from Professional Best Friend. He has skills that are arguably more relevant to life than Ben.

Maybe controversial but IMO, the Kristy Arnett podcast was the worst-est. This relationship/life coach nonsense is getting a little out of hand these days.

Love the podcast Papi! H-Bob and Rast really killed it. Rast was right, you are a great interviewer.

Ty papi

I am not sure who that guy is but he doesn't sound very GTO from Brians description.



Will be time to retire the pod if I can get Isai on. He is on the podcast bucket list.

I've been thinking about what I want to do related to the stars changes. I think I want to get longtime SSFR reg and a guy I used to play all the time with MeleaB aka Mike Brooks on to talk about it with me and am thinking about getting J Mo on.

Also pretty good chance we will get D Negs to come on after he makes his blog post and his discussions with Stars end bosses on changes is over.


I'm not very GTO at understanding ways to make something like this bigger outside keep putting out really good content with various people. I'm pretty confident if I can keep doing that well then people will naturally find it and really enjoy it.

Probably 95% chance I end up at Burning Man next year. Doesn't seem very life GTO not to go. Def have to try to get Phil on soon, he is the man. I would imagine he will be just like what we see on TV



If I can get more posts like this post podcast then I def need to do more midnight episodes lol



The Gross and Kristy podcasts got me so ****ing hype on life after talking with them. I can see why some people wouldn't like that over excitement or enthusisasm about things. Some people said Jeff was being super PC about everything but maybe that is how he really is. I think to be a professional best friend and to get a majority of people to like you, you have to have a pretty PC attitude about things in general. I remember when I was big into raging and wanted new people to like me I would be super PC and smile all the time, it worked tremendously.


I am going to change the name of the podcast to include the word conversation

more poker less kumbaya

haralabob podcast was sick, pretty much everything I like about your show

women who play live poker, not so much

What about getting the god Kevmath on for a short one.

Brian Rast podcast was ****ing great! I was not expecting it but it was awesome!

Pokertube interviewer guy < Joe Ingram

And it's not even a close comparison. Keep doing your thing Joe and don't sell out to Pokernews or anything down the road

I very like the podcasts with cate. She is such an intelligent, eloquent woman. Also ansky and rast podcast were cool too. Much love pappi.

Laughing so hard at Joey insisting that Cate lives on the ocean. Too funny.

Great job joey. Keep them coming.

Does Cate Hall always speak in a crescendo manner ? First one I couldn't finish in a long time

A+ Rast and haralabob podcast.

^^^^
the i want to @$%# cate really bad guy lolololo get a grip when obresstad was at her peak and a bit chunkier she was never decribed with such eloquence even though she has monster results(slebst too)

She lost me with the whole not willing to take a picture with the royal flush girls thing but will contribute to a wpt tourney,, even she stated its hypocritical of her to think that... They model and show their body as part of their job they have no control over how ethical/unethical the wpt marketing department is, so thumbing her nose down at them as if she is better or more enlighten than them was a turn off especially coming from someone associated with the poker world, you think she would have more emapthy.
Now one thing I can agree on is being in Vegas you can go to treasure island or planet hollywood a seemingly more family friendly location and the waitresses do dress very revealing and I can see how it would make women uncomfortable, but im not going to go out of my way to not tip them or treat them less than women, if anything i would take my frustration out on their employer in some capacity
