38:01More discussion regarding the regs who run private games, and how they make decisions to cut players based on protecting their own interests, plus the practice of objectifying fish as a commodity for private games.

42:57Mike discusses a recent tweet regarding swings in confidence leading up to the Aussie Millions, and the rush of pulling off a big bluff.

Mike Del Vecchio joins our hosts Jamie Kerstetter & Marle Cordeiro to discuss live tournament play vs cash games, Mike's repeat success at Aussie Millions, the intriguing world of high stakes private games, and more!
