And then what they do now with the final table is they, because they were trying to do this for TV, these final tables can take,

you know, 12 hours to play.

And what we were finding was, you know, you start the thing at 5 p.m.

and it goes till 8 a.m.

and like nobody's watching anymore.

So they separate into three days now.

And so you're talking now, it's like six, seven days to get to the final table and another three days to play it.

So you're grinding for, you know, a week and a half.

Especially early on.

Yeah.

And then by the end, like, who knows, you know, rarely do you see, you see in the last hundred, you usually see some notable names.

Then in the last 27, you might see one, maybe two, final table, maybe one.

But often it's going to be, you know, some players you've never heard of before.

Yes, absolutely.

Like, I think the World Series of Poker main event is a unique animal in that, you know, like we talk about game theory and all that kind of stuff.

If you're focused on that when you're playing, you're really not playing well, right?

You need to just exploit because you're going to have a lot of people who see this as a bucket list item.

You know, they just want to play the main event in the World Series and they might be scared.

They might be nervous or whatever.

You don't have to worry about being balanced, right?
