They're like, oh,

So all the amateurs are built different.

Some of the amateurs are just too weak and passive.

They're just waiting for the nuts.

And then the pros, everyone notices that.

And then when they make their big hand, they don't get paid anyway.

So in order to win the main event, I mean, you have to have some components of your game that are aggressive.

It's very unlikely to expect to just get the cards the whole way and just always have the best hand.

You're going to have to find ways to win pots that, you know, where you don't have the best hand.

The final table is unique now, especially because you're talking about the way that poker works in tournaments is that if there's seven people left and you're very short on chips, but if one other player goes out, you just make like $300,000 for folding, like just for sitting out, right?

The term for that that kids use is ICM, independent chip model, right?

Where it talks about the value of each chip.

Where what happens, what we see now is, let's say one guy has a big chip lead.

And there's another guy who's second in chips.

And there's a couple that are short.

These guys in the middle, they just play super tight.

And they wait for the little guys to go while the big stack is just pounding them because he can afford to, right?

He knows that people are handcuffed.

So let's say I had 10 million in chips and you have 9 million in chips.

And these guys have little chips.
