You 6 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 2: also have the Five Families in New York, and if 7 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 2: you're not familiar with them, it's well, you got that 8 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 2: Gambino Genevici, you got Lukesey, and they're apparently involved in 9 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 2: backing rigged poker games, scamming victims out of hundreds of 10 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 2: thousands of dollars. Three of the more than thirty defendants 11 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 2: were indicted allegedly involved in both sports betting and fraudulent 12 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 2: gambling schemes during the poker games. In one of the 13 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 2: alleged schemes, those involved use technologies such as poker chip 14 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 2: trey analyzers, and an X ray table that would read 15 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 2: the cards when they're faced down on the table. According 16 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 2: to prosecutors, victims allegedly scammed out of at least seven 17 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 2: million dollars in poker games. The FBI has its eyes 18 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: on the Italian organized crime families, specifically the La Cosa 19 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 2: Nostra the five families in New York City. Officials dubbed 20 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 2: the NBA gambling scheme Investigation Operation nothing but net Operation 21 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 2: Royal Flush for the poker schemes. Come on, this is 22 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 2: out of a move. It's not a good Fellows goodfellas. 23 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 2: So they had the Operation Royal Flush. So this is 24 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 2: the FBI having a press conference, hidden cameras, special eyeglasses, 25 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 2: X ray poker tables. I don't know the poker chip 26 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 2: tray analyzers. I'm gonna guess that. Well, No, I don't know. 27 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 2: I don't know what a poker chip tray analyzer is. 28 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: Hidden cameras, special contact lenses, or eyeglasses that can read 29 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: pre marked cards. The X ray table could read cards 30 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 2: face down on the table. Three of the defendants involved 31 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 2: in both poker and also in sports betting Chauncey Billups. 32 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 2: He was one of those involved in the poker scheme 33 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 2: and victims were allegedly referred to as phish. People had 34 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: no idea that everybody else at the table was in 35 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 2: on the scam. And I think the question is, did 36 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 2: Chauncey Billups lure people into a poker game knowing that 37 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 2: they were going to lose money? Now did he know 38 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 2: or not know? But games were backed by some of 39 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 2: the mafia families here as well the NBA betting scheme. 40 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 2: Six arrests with that, So this is once again, this 41 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 2: isn't the NBA investigating this, this is the FBI, but 42 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: mob families apparently involved in widespread gambling cases. So that's 43 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 2: what I've got right now. We'll have more on this 44 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 2: coming up in about fifteen minutes.

But he can go outside inside, he can 90 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: play offense, he can play defense, and just really figuring out. 91 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:59,119 Speaker 2: I mean he hasn't stopped growing and filling out, but 92 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 2: aside from an injury, I mean, that's the future right there. 93 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 2: He is the future.

They're just like, 98 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 2: oh my god, look how he's moving fast. He's big. 99 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 2: He covers a lot of territory there. 100 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, Marvin, could you ever think in two thousand and 101 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 6: seven you're gonna say, hey, Kevin Durant' is a six 102 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 6: eleven guy that can do everything. Hey, but in about 103 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 6: twenty years, this guy's gonna be seven to six that 104 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 6: can do everything and play deference from the perimeter to 105 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 6: the post. 106 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 2: Well, we might be saying that now about somebody twenty 107 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 2: years from now. Way, wait till twenty years from now. 108 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 2: Who knows what that player looks like. 109 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 5: Yes, Paulin, you'll appreciate this because you covered him, You 110 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 5: did a piece on him. Sean Bradley when he was 111 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 5: in BYU, who was like a both an outside and 112 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 5: inside guy at seven six, but he had nowhere near 113 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 5: the coordination of women Yama, nowhere near. 114 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 2: But this is what I thought Ralph Samson could be. 115 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 2: And Ralph was seven to four. But once again, as 116 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 2: a big man, you weren't taught ball handling skills. You 117 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 2: were told to be down in the post, so you 118 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 2: didn't develop this. Now, these players, certainly the players overseas, 119 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 2: they go to academies to develop this. They're not going 120 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 2: to high school. They're going to academies. They're studying to 121 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 2: be a professional athlete. And they developed these players so 122 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 2: they're ready to go to the NBA and they can 123 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 2: do ball handling footwork. I always marveled at kiem Elijauan. 124 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 2: He had some of the best footwork of anybody I've 125 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 2: ever seen in the NBA. But he was taught soccer 126 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 2: and therefore he had this footwork, and I think that's 127 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 2: really important. It's very underrated. Your footwork is so important 128 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 2: just about every sport. And just had that coordination, but 129 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 2: you're allowed the luxury of being outside. In a million years, 130 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 2: somebody's seven to six and he's on the perimeter. My 131 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 2: high school coach would have been get inside, get down 132 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 2: there on the block, and he'd be like, Okay, yeah, Marvin. 133 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 6: That's why Maggie Johnson was so fascinating because he was 134 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 6: a point guard in the late seventies. Like what were 135 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 6: they doing at his high school and at Michigan State 136 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 6: telling him not to get into the post and be 137 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 6: a point guard? 138 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 2: I know, I know, Uh, co peasy in Palm Beach, 139 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 2: co peasy. 140 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 7: Look, I know all right. 141 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 8: Well, thank you for taking the call Midday, fellas, and 142 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 8: I appreciate you calling me back.

It's probably the most difficult 148 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 8: thing I could think about. But at the same time, 149 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 8: as Seaton says, the seven to four point guard, as 150 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 8: you were discussing, it's pretty incredible. Also, thank you Seating 151 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 8: for the Flacco T shirt. Timing is everything something to 152 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 8: it doesn't have. And I was wondering if you guys 153 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 8: saw the Michael Jordan free throw, because I really do 154 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 8: believe that he was actually nervous there. 155 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, the videos come out, Yeah, I saw that where 156 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 2: GOODEO talked about that with Mike Turco, and it backs 157 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 2: up the story that he was at the Ryder Cup 158 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 2: and he hadn't shot a basketball in a long time, 159 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 2: and he was staying at a house owned by a 160 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 2: family and they're like, hey, this is the only thing 161 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 2: we want is would you shoot a free throw? And 162 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 2: you could see him going out there and he was nervous, 163 00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:00,839 Speaker 2: like you can see when he's done because these kids 164 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 2: didn't see him play.

But that was fun. 181 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 2: That was a That's the first time I ever felt 182 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 2: like this is acting. And this is why I don't 183 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 2: want to do it because and I'll never forget this feeling. 184 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 2: I'm on stage and I'm starting to panic a little 185 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 2: bit because Sandler wants me to add lib. And I've 186 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 2: got Jennifer Aniston and Nicole Kidman.

They know it, they 190 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 2: know it. And that's when I kind of I said 191 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 2: to Sandler, I said, Sam, can you hey come here 192 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 2: from it? And then I'm I'm asking him questions that 193 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 2: are just stupid questions because I'm trying to throw them 194 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 2: off the scent that I can't act. And then I 195 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 2: got my act together and then we're able to do 196 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 2: the scene, and I don't I'm sure they knew that 197 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 2: I couldn't act.

Danny got 214 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 2: any lines you want to throw out, and so I 215 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 2: know that when I do that, that he's got a 216 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 2: lot of confidence in me. When we first started, he 217 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 2: kind of said, although, when I arrest him in Longest Yard, 218 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 2: so it's right at the beginning of the movie, and 219 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 2: we pulled him over and we did five takes, and 220 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 2: Sandler had a different take each each time, so he 221 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 2: didn't go as scripted, and they the take that they 222 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 2: took was he said something really funny, and I put 223 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 2: my hand up because I didn't think they were going 224 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 2: to use it in the movie.

It's the FBI with over thirty people 288 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 2: arrested involved in gambling schemes that had to do with poker, 289 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 2: also apparently sports betting as well.

It was pretty intense, very serious. 295 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 11: There were more than twenty officials including Cash Betel, director 296 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 11: of the FBI. Very serious. They said, this is the 297 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 11: tip of the iceberg. Both of these investigations are still ongoing. 298 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 2: Okay, let's start with the Chauncey Billups allegations and Terry 299 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 2: Rogier and Damon Jones. What were they alledged to a 300 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:12,679 Speaker 2: bit involved in. 301 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 11: So there was two things. One was this a llegend. 302 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 11: By the way, they're all alleged. Still everyone's innocent until 303 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 11: proven guilty. They made sure to, you know, make that clear. 304 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 11: There was one operation called Operation Royal Flush that involved 305 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 11: the poker scheme and basically they would dupe everyday people 306 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 11: into playing these games with high profile people like Chauncey 307 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 11: Billups and Damon Jones. But everyone else besides the victim 308 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 11: knew was in on the scam allegedly. So they were 309 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,200 Speaker 11: using technology to like read cards. They said something about 310 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 11: X ray technology where cards would be faced down but 311 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 11: they could still see what cards they were, and they 312 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 11: were duping people out of thousands, you know, ultimately it 313 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 11: was more than it was millions of dollars, Cash Patel said, 314 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 11: So that was that was that. It was when Chauncey 315 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 11: Bilts was a former player, Damon Jones, former player. They're 316 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 11: both coaches. 317 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 2: Very not cool. Where what's the timeframe on this? Because 318 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:13,479 Speaker 2: Chauncey Billups coached last night? But when is he alleged 319 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 2: to have been involved in this gambling ring? 320 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 11: So it's relatively recently, and by that I just mean 321 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 11: within a few years ago. It was he was a 322 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 11: former player, now he's been retired for a while. 323 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: It wasn't. 324 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 11: I would need to go read the indictment, which I 325 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 11: have right here, hundreds of pages to find out exactly 326 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 11: the year, but I think that it was alleged before 327 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 11: he was a coach. This has been going on for years, they. 328 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,400 Speaker 2: Said, but why is it surfacing now? 329 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 11: So they've been investigating for a handful of years, collecting evidence, 330 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 11: trying to figure out, you know, how they could nail them. 331 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 11: And they obviously have enough evidence now that they felt 332 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 11: they could charge these people. They arrested Chauncey Phillips and 333 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 11: Terry Rozier this morning, along with others. The other interesting 334 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,160 Speaker 11: factor here is that they said that the Italian mob 335 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 11: is I mean, this is like a Hollywood movie made 336 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 11: a mention of that, but it is real life. Has 337 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 11: the NBA responded, I have not been in touch with 338 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 11: the NBA. I did ask at the press conference whether 339 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 11: the NBA cooperated with the investigation, and they said, yes, 340 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 11: the NBA cooperated. 341 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 2: What do you think is next? 342 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:18,920 Speaker 11: Well, like I said, it's the tip of the iceberg. 343 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 11: So you know, now Chauncey, Billups and Terry was here, 344 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 11: They're going to be arranged in court and sorry for 345 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 11: the wins by the way in Oregon and Florida today, 346 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 11: we don't know exactly when. And they're you know, they're charged. 347 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 11: There's going to be trials moving forward. I think the 348 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 11: FBI and the law enforcement agencies they're still asking people, hey, 349 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 11: if you know anything about this, you know, we're open ears. 350 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 11: They're still investigating. So the the implication is that further players, coaches, 351 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 11: et cetera. Could still come out. 352 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 2: But are we talking about fixing games? Betting on games? 353 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,120 Speaker 11: But that was so that's the other There were two 354 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 11: investigations right there with the poker one. The other one 355 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 11: which is what Rosier is involved in? Players like Rosier 356 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 11: and you know he's the only player and John Taye 357 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 11: Porter is the other one that was part of this. 358 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 11: They were giving inside information about they were going to 359 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 11: claim that they were injured. They were going to say 360 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 11: they're going to play poorly. They were telling other people 361 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 11: involved in the scam so that people on the outside 362 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,439 Speaker 11: would bet on you know, Terry Rozier is going to 363 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,360 Speaker 11: score less than ten points. And then Rosier would exit 364 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 11: the game in the second quarter saying that he's getting 365 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 11: a leg cramp. You know, that's what it was. I mean, 366 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 11: this was being reported for a while, but now the 367 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 11: charges are really out there. That's what was happening. 368 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 2: Ben. Thank you. I know you got a busy day. 369 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 2: Thank you taking some time for us. 370 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 11: Thanks so much. 371 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 9: Dad. 372 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 2: That's Ben Horny from Front Office Sports covering finance, private 373 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 2: equity ownership, and gambling. So you got the crime families 374 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 2: in New York, you got poker games, X ray tables, 375 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 2: you got people wearing contact lenses or glasses that can 376 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 2: read a marked card. Then you have prop bets maybe 377 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 2: with gambling, and that's what Terry Rozier John Tae Porter 378 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 2: was involved in. But did Chauncey Billups lure people to 379 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 2: poker games knowing that those people were going to be cheated? 380 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 2: And I think that's what it sounds like he's been 381 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 2: arrested with. And you're talking about hundreds of thousands of 382 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 2: dollars here that added up to now I think around 383 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 2: seven million dollars. Who that's wild, It's wild, Yeah, pulling and. 384 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 5: You asked again, Chauncey Phillips is not a victim of this, 385 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 5: He's allegedly a participant. 386 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, but imagine that your job is to lure, 387 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 2: not that. If Damon Jones said, hey, do you want 388 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 2: to come to a poker game, I'd go, sure, that's 389 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 2: Damon Jones or Terry Rogier. But Chauncey Billups Okay, And 390 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 2: then are you getting a kickback? And if so, what 391 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 2: kind of kickback? Or you I'm sure that you're getting 392 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 2: a kickback. Let's say, you know, the house is making 393 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 2: seventy five thousand dollars, we're gonna give you, but you 394 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 2: got to make it worth his while. That's what I 395 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 2: don't understand, because he's not really playing poker then, But 396 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 2: I don't you know, maybe Chauncey Billups owed somebody, Hey, 397 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 2: you want to pay down your debt and here's how 398 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 2: you do it. Now, Once again, just speculating, but just 399 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:30,479 Speaker 2: trying to figure out. Chauncey Phillips has done well in 400 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 2: his career in his NBA career. Now was this in 401 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 2: between when he retired to becoming coach of the Blazers. 402 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 2: Sounds like it, but wow, how much could you make 403 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 2: where you go this is worth it? Now? Once again, 404 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 2: you never do these things, and you go, what if 405 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,919 Speaker 2: I get caught? They're probably thinking nobody's going to know 406 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 2: about this, it's just us. But all of a sudden 407 00:22:55,200 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 2: you bring in the mafia, the crime family man, my 408 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 2: antenna would go up. I'd be like, uh yeah, Paul. 409 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 5: The one thing journalistically is Lebron James is gonna be 410 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 5: asked about this with his friendship, long term friendship with 411 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 5: Damon Jones, the player they played on different teams together. 412 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 5: The Athletic and the Times, The New York Times are already 413 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 5: running different article about things Damon Jones is accused of. 414 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,479 Speaker 5: So it's one of those things whether obviously not accusing anybody, 415 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 5: but you have to answer for It's gonna be. 416 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 2: A tough week. Yeah, I mean you could just say, 417 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 2: you know, I have clearly no idea. 418 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm just saying that. 419 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 2: He's not going to be answering and he's not around, right, 420 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 2: you can't talk to Lebron. He's not around, I don't think. Yeah, 421 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:40,400 Speaker 2: all right, then. 422 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 6: The Blazers players too, a bunch of young guys. Yeah, hey, 423 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 6: let's ask you about what's going on with your head coach. 424 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well tip of the Iceberg. So thirty over thirty 425 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 2: people and more to come. Yeah, Pablo Torre finds out 426 00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:59,959 Speaker 2: his podcast. He's been doing a deep dive on this 427 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 2: as well. I'm sure he'll have something later today. Mike 428 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 2: and Vegas. 429 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 7: I might Hey, how you doing damn good? I just 430 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 7: should know that I've been a fan since the Five 431 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 7: Families were the only ones watching because he was They're 432 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 7: a gambling interest. But I saw the Western Conference champions 433 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 7: and MVP play last night. Oh, it's going to be 434 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 7: San Antonio win in the West and ulm Bayu is 435 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 7: going to be the MVP victor. 436 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 2: All right, I don't think San Antonio is going to 437 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 2: win the West. I'm glad on the limb there, but 438 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,680 Speaker 2: they might be the most improved team and therefore, maybe 439 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 2: you know, Wemby, is he going to be a top 440 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 2: five m VP candidate? Maybe, I hope, but I still 441 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 2: think uh Joker as your leading candidate. Luca is also 442 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 2: in there as well, but Wemby, you know, maybe he's 443 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 2: the top five. I don't know what Vegas had as 444 00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 2: far as best odds on winning the MVP, but we 445 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 2: can find that out. But I wonder if Wemby was 446 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 2: in there. 447 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 6: Yes, marv Oh, he's definitely a first team All NBA 448 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 6: player this season. 449 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 4: Because now there's not no positions, right. 450 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 2: Is he a top five player right now? 451 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 4: Yes? Yeah, and you can fill in whatever other four 452 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 4: you want. 453 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,360 Speaker 2: Well, I'm in the fan club. I'm a president. I mean, 454 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 2: I have no problem saying that I saw the future. 455 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 2: I saw that and uh even mentioned that when we 456 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,919 Speaker 2: had Reggie Miller on. I'm like, God, I mean this 457 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 2: is you better win your awards now because Wemby's coming 458 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,640 Speaker 2: and uh he's gonna he's gonna take a few of them. 459 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 2: He's going to get Defensive Player of the Year and 460 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 2: he'll win multiple m vps.

Is he MVP? 501 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 2: No Tim Duncan's Oh yeah, Tim Duncan. Yes, Moses Malone 502 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 2: is in there as well. I remember watching Moses. I 503 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 2: don't remember anything more than a four foot shot and 504 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 2: a ton of rebounds. I I don't I don't remember. 505 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 2: I would watch their games and he'd end up with 506 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 2: like twenty four points and twenty rebounds, and I couldn't 507 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 2: remember any There was no highlights. It was just he was. 508 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 2: He was as good offensive rebound as I've ever seen. 509 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 6: Yes, mar Moses Malone is never brought up in the 510 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 6: town Greatest twenty greatest, but he has three MVP awards. 511 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 2: And he played in the ABA for a while. He 512 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 2: came out of high school. But yeah, Moses was that 513 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,719 Speaker 2: that was a unique player, that he was a great rebounder. 514 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 2: But he scored. He scored a lot of points. Will 515 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,959 Speaker 2: and Dayton, I will what's on your mind today? 516 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 4: Hey? 517 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 14: Thanks Dan? So you were a ESPN the big poker 518 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 14: boom back in the late nineties early two thousands. These 519 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 14: pros are extremely gifted. I'm wondering what involvement When they 520 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 14: realized they could only make so much money in tournament 521 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 14: cash games, they started putting games together with multimillionaires and billionaires. 522 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 14: When you watch some of these games on TV, you'll 523 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 14: see NBA players. I've seen Jimmy Butler, for instance. I've 524 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 14: seen Paul Pierce. I'm wondering what their involvement is. Not 525 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 14: in the scheme, but in blowing the whistle. Hey, something 526 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 14: ain't right in this game, figuring it out and you know, 527 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 14: blowing the whistle on all. 528 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 2: This what So you think that they might have been 529 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 2: a fish in the These are games that are held 530 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 2: usually at somebody's house, not Vegas. I don't think they're 531 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 2: talking about that, Will, but you know Paul Pierce has 532 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:12,160 Speaker 2: talking about poker games at his house, Gilbert Arenas having 533 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 2: a house where you know he has poker games. Yeah, 534 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 2: I think he's saying that the NBA players might have 535 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 2: been the people who tipped off the FBI. That's something 536 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 2: wrong was going on. Yeah, but that's where they were 537 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 2: they taken advantage of. Yeah, it sounds like it. Yeah, 538 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 2: that's that's what I would be curious about. Boy, can 539 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 2: you imagine if Wow, if Chauncey Billups was having somebody 540 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 2: come in and there was an NBA player knowing that 541 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 2: they would be taken advantage of the depth of this 542 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 2: is fascinating, Like the details that they would go to, 543 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 2: the depth they would go to to be able to 544 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 2: cheat these people. Like an X ray table, How do 545 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,520 Speaker 2: you buy that? Where do you buy that? 546 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 9: Can? 547 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 2: I can you check if I can get that on Amazon? 548 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 2: Checking an X ray table? I mean I I had 549 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 2: those X ray glasses when I was growing up, but 550 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 2: I couldn't see through Amy Lakes's top. I mean I 551 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 2: did buy him. 552 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, Paul, imagine you sit down to a poker table 553 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 5: and they put that big kevlar thing over your body 554 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 5: so you don't get radiation. That should be a trip off. 555 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 5: This is not a normal poker game. 556 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 2: Do you have the MVP odds? Where's where's Wemby in 557 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 2: the race? 558 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 5: Three days ago? Preseason odds, Sga number one, Jokic, Doncic, 559 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 5: Yannis and when Bin Yama was fifth? Okay, now real 560 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 5: time odds, when Bana shot up to second overnight okay. 561 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 2: Sga is not going to do anything different than he 562 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 2: did last year. He'll be extremely efficient in average thirty 563 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 2: two a game, right, so he's he's already won the MVP. 564 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 2: It's it's almost like Joker. It's like, ah, we've seen this, 565 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 2: but then Joker kind of reinvented himself or made it, 566 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 2: you know, he put up even he had an incredible 567 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 2: year last year and could have easily been MVP. Luca 568 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 2: got in shape, gonna do this without Lebron for a 569 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 2: good portion of the season, and he plays in Los Angeles, 570 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 2: the name on the front a lot of attention. All 571 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 2: of his games televised. He would be my leader in 572 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 2: the clubhouse, Jannis. Unless they do something incredible, I can't. Okay, 573 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 2: you average thirty four to fourteen or something, you know, 574 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 2: thirty fourteen. Okay, we've seen that before. 575 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, Marv, Jalen Brunson. 576 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 6: If the Knicks get the one seed in the East, 577 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 6: they have a really good regular season. He's he was hot, 578 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 6: He's been hot the past couple of postseason. Yeah, so 579 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 6: he's coming in New York. Oh wait, I don't want 580 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 6: to even use New York because not like New York 581 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 6: wins MVPs or anything like that. But Jalen Brunson. 582 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, fun a lot of those games East Coast 583 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 2: games saw him last night against the Cavaliers. 584 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 6: Most national TV games, and maybe they're tied Lakers, Lakers, Thunder, Warriors, Nicks. 585 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm surprised the Thunder, I know, defending champs, but 586 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 2: you want people to watch the games. I don't know 587 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 2: if they're going to go out of their way to 588 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 2: watch this Thunder, even though it's a great team play 589 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 2: offense and defense. Really well, you got the reigning MVP, 590 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 2: chat Holmgren, you know all of these things.

They're 593 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 6: just showing respect to the defending champs. 594 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 4: That's it. 595 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 2: Okay, let's take a break.

We opened the door, and 660 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 2: the look on her son's face and her face was like, 661 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 2: are you going to leave me here with these animals. Yes, Marvin. 662 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:12,919 Speaker 4: So Mary Hart was going to call child Services on you. 663 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 2: But she had every reason too. Yes, Tom, and. 664 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 3: She's a huge Dodger fan. Like for the last several years. 665 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,319 Speaker 3: You can see a right at home Clayton MC the 666 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 3: second or third row, perfect behind home seats, rooting for 667 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 3: her Dodgers. 668 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yes, she's always there. 669 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 5: She remember what's his name? Was used to be there 670 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 5: all the time from CNN Larry King. Larry King always 671 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 5: back there. 672 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 2: Let's see skull Mike in Texas. 673 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 15: How's it going, Dan? 674 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 2: Great? Great, Mike. 675 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,360 Speaker 15: I'm a poker pro and I'm on the director of 676 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 15: the large live stream here down in Austin, so I 677 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 15: can try and help clarify some of the questions you 678 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:56,239 Speaker 15: have regarding the bill up scandal. Okay, you're talking about 679 00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 15: the X ray table. I haven't read the report, but 680 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:04,760 Speaker 15: I'd imagine some type of RFI D technology where it's sadly, 681 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 15: there's plenty of cheating in the poker world, and I 682 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 15: would never go to any type of private game if 683 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 15: I didn't trust the game run or some sorts. But 684 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 15: the RFID technology basically, you have some sensors in the 685 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:21,240 Speaker 15: table and then you have the felt over the sensors, 686 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 15: so whenever the cards go over one of the sensors, 687 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 15: that can get relayed back to maybe a back room. 688 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,359 Speaker 15: And then if you have players in the game that 689 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 15: might be in on the scams, you can get some 690 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,879 Speaker 15: type of signal and then you basically know at which 691 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 15: point in the hand rather be on the flop, turn 692 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 15: or river, if your hand's good or not. And then 693 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 15: the fish as you call it, which is basically a 694 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 15: poker term for a week player in the game, somebody 695 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 15: that doesn't know what's going on. There's terms like sharp, fish, whale, 696 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 15: and the fish is the weakest player, the person that's 697 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,759 Speaker 15: everybody goes after and they're just going to be dead 698 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,719 Speaker 15: money in the grand scheme of things. But the thing 699 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,879 Speaker 15: that's confusing to me, as you alluded to, is why 700 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 15: would Billups risk his reputation and get involved in this 701 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:09,759 Speaker 15: when he's pretty much, you know, a made man and 702 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 15: doesn't need to get involved in this. So that's the 703 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 15: part of the story that doesn't make sense for me, 704 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 15: but hopefully that clarifies. 705 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 2: Okay, But the guys wearing glasses or contact lenses with 706 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 2: a marked card, so that's kind. 707 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,799 Speaker 15: Of just another form of cheating that goes on nowadays. 708 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:30,000 Speaker 15: Technology is so good that you can have some type 709 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 15: of special made cards, like a special deck that the 710 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 15: fish would have no idea. They would just think it's 711 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,360 Speaker 15: a regular deck of cards. And you see poker games 712 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 15: on TV. People are wearing sunglasses, regular glasses, and they 713 00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 15: could have some type of technology in the glasses that 714 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 15: could read through the card. And if you're not covering 715 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 15: your cars, or if your cards are just out there 716 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 15: on the felt in front of you by the chips, 717 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,279 Speaker 15: that person could say, oh, you have the ace, or 718 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,359 Speaker 15: you have the King, you have the King of clubs here. 719 00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 15: It's just another form of cheating that sadly goes on 720 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 15: in poker games. 721 00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,359 Speaker 2: All right, well, thank you, Mike. Not going to play 722 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 2: poker with Mike. I'm not going to do that. I 723 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:10,440 Speaker 2: don't want to accuse him of anything. Just saying sounds 724 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 2: like he knows what he's doing.
