Jennifer welcomes poker dealer and writer Jeffrey San Gabriel on the GRID to talk about dealing a famous hand at the 2024 World Series of Poker Main Event. The fateful four-bet hand featured Will Berry (in the hijack) and Adrian Mateos (on the button). Jeffrey dealt a flop of Q4 2 and Berry bet 425,000 into a pot of 1.36 Million chips. Mateos called. The turn was the 10 of spades and Berry bet 1.3 Million into 2.2 Million. After a little thought, Mateos folded. It was only later that Jeffrey realized he dealt such a dramatic hand: Mateos was holding pocket kings, which he laid down correctly to Berry’s aces.

Jeffrey and Jen move on to Jeffrey’s new substack, “Thinking in the Box”, his pet peeves at the table, and his thoughts on slide-dealing, which is being rolled out at EPTs, with an eye toward full adoption by EPT Barcelona. They also discuss Jeffrey’s most positive experiences dealing, and his tips on tips.
