0:00 I feel like if you're Tony, you've won $3 million, you are widely recognized as the best to ever play. Most people will say goat, you know, it's Tony. And for very good reasons, he beat such a high-level cast and winners at war, that you have to give him all the credit for being able to do it against proven people and also for how he changed this game. I just don't think that there's like any upside for Tony to come back and play the game again. There's no point for him to come back. I'm honestly, it hurts me to say this, I kind of hope he doesn't come back.
