Episode #468 - July 31st, 2017

Live from the Two Plus Two Studios - This week on the Pokercast: With Adam on hiatus we needed someone who knows their stuff to wrap up this great Main Event final table so we got ahold of the man the myth the legend, Joey Ingram! Joe has been in Vegas since the beginning of the series and sweat the final table live, plus watched it with some other pros to get insight into the strategies used by the final 9. To begin Terrence and Joe talk about the summer, Joe has some memories of his first appearance on the Pokercast during his first endurance prop bet and more. There’s really only one piece of news this week and it’s that we have a new Main Event champ! Scott Blumstein seemingly coasted to victory after taking a huge chip lead off of fan favourite John Hesp. We review each important hand of the final table and Terrence and Joe break down the strategy considerations behind each. The guys also talk about the pros and cons of the broadcast this year with Poker Go and the commentary. We also have a couple of mailbag questions, one from the world series and we couldn’t let Joey go without some PLO strategy.

We're currently struggling for just weekly, I'll have to consult with the guys

I'm willing to accept my free entertainment on whatever schedule is convenient for you all.

Sincerely,

Hmmmmm

Joey was calling for the deuce the whole time.

Thanks to Joey for guest hosting this week.
He was a nice sorbet.

Thanks for having me co-host

Amazing job, Joey. Enjoyed all of it. The 5 card PLO/8 breakdown was a treat.

On the "should I try MMA front", fighting could be like a marathon -- training for one is better for you than actually running one. My advice on gyms is to go in and see what % of people younger than you are that are wearing stuff like knee braces. If 50% of the gym is young kids that have beaten each other up badly, don't go in. Sure, they could be world class fighters who go hard. However, as you get older (maybe Joey isn't, but maybe soon?), the worst exercise is the kind that gets you hurt so you can't train. I'm definitely older, nobody is paying me to fight or anything else. So, I want my exercise fun to be first about being able to come back in and enjoy doing some more. Still, a fun gym can be a blast.

TChan is young enough and or serious enough, that this may not be an issue.

Not sure if this is the article Terrance mentioned but posting to remind him if not.

New life goal: take a selfie with TChan in front of the WSOP sign and somehow incorporate stalling into that event.

Thank you Joey for taking the reins on the 5 card PLO hand discussion. While TC is a good player and very bright, it is night and day comparison listening to someone who is well versed in discussing PLO hands vs. someone who isn't as experienced. Not necessarily the strategy, but clearly calling out the cards and board and action so it is digestible to the audience.
