Pat Mayo Coolbet Open Poker Qualifier - July 8th, 8:00pm ET
Yes, I have a private qualifier for a Coolbet Poker event in Tallinn, Estonia in August. Not only that, if you take me out of the qualifier, you get a bounty on my head! If you come top 2 in the PME qualifier you’ll advance to the final Q to win…
• €550 (~$860 CAD) buy-in to Coolbet Open Main Event
• 5 nights in a double room at Nordic Hotel Forum including breakfast (usually booked for August 12th-17th)
• €300 in tournament credit during the Coolbet Open
• Dinner buffet
This year will be the eighth edition of the Coolbet Open and we are expecting more than 500 players at the Chesterfield Poker Club and Nordic Hotel Forum.
The Main Event is a €550 buy-in tournament with unlimited re-entries until the end of the first level of day 2. The prize pool is expected to surpass €250,000. There are also more than 30 side events with fun games such as Mystery Bounties, Omaha, 8-Game, HORSE and OFC Pineapple.
If you’re Canaidan (outside Ontario), you can play. And I can tell you, I’m awful, so I’m dead money in my Q. Tell some friends and sign up to Coolbet NOW using code: SPORTS200. There are also two PME Golf Boosts there this week too!

ROCKET PICKS!!!
Min WOOO Lee & Wyndham Clark — Two high ball speed players who have the green light to fire away off the tee. If one of them, can roll a hot putter for the week they’ll be hoisting a novelty check.
Max Greyserman — Midway through my discussion with Tambo Wednesday, I gave a closer look at Greyserman’s past few months and something clicked with me…
Of his past eight starts, seven of them have been in Majors or Signature events, against the best players on TOUR. And while he was quite awful for March/April, he’s sneakily started bal striking well above average again, and now his putts aren’t dropping. But putting is the least of my concerns with him. Despite a dip lately, he’s been one of the TOUR’s best putters over the the past year. Even with his poor three start stretch, he’s gaining +1.9 SG:PUTT per start over his past 20 tournaments. So, if the putter can come back this week and the recent ball striking continues, against a weak field, he may exact his revenge on Donald Ross from last year’s Wyndham Championship.
Davis Thompson —A runner up at this site a year ago, DT finally broke out of his iron slump in a big way at Travelers. Thompson was third in the field approach (+5.6), marking the first time sine Augusta he’s been better than +0.2 in a tournament. The putter remain cold, but he has gained on the greens each of the past two years in Detroit.
Gary Woodland — If the man could chip or putt (preferably both), he wins in Hartford by 10 last week. Alas, he couldn’t. He actually led all players in approach at TPC River Highlands whiling making it his fifth straight positive performance off the tee. He just happened to lose a combined eight strokes between chipping and putting. Now, the chipping is no surprise. He’s one of the worst on TOUR. However, the horrendous putting could be a blip. Woodland’s actually been quite good one the greens in 2025. He’s slightly above average in most starts with two massive spikes which coincided with his best two finishes of the year. It’s good to know he still has that in his back pocket.
H2H — Harry Hall over Si Woo Kim +105 (Coolbet) — I have them rated out about equal this week so simply getting juice on one side is nice, plus there’s the bonus out of Si Woo’s back which caused him to WD at the Travelers over the weekend. If things so south early for him he may just call it quits.
WEATHER
It’s going to be HOT in Motor City, but Friday seems to be the only round where weather is an influence. Over the past 24 hours, the wind has switched from the afternoon to the morning to the afternoon again. Right now, PM/AM looks like the best of it, but check back again later Wednesday night to see if it has flopped again

DRAFTKINGS
We discussed it in greater detail on the show today, but the high 7s through the 8Ks on DK are more-or-less being overlooked.
Rocket Classic 2025 DraftKings Picks & Lineups
There are a few exceptions, obviously, but the talent gap in this field from from Min Woo Lee to the Top to Morikawa isn’t all that great. But the $1000 drop from Davis Thompson to Sam Ryder is massive. So I like starting with Hideki or Greyersman and smashing the mid-$8Ks into the high 7Ks. Even if you have some chalk pieces, so few are building this way it won’t matter.
