Formula 1 Driver Daniel Ricciardo Knows When to Pit

partypoker Partners with McLaren Racing to Help Players "Know When to Pit"

McLaren Racing driver Daniel Ricciardo knows what it's like to operate at peak performance. Both he and his car need to operate at the outer limits of their ability on race day to stand a chance of winning, or even making it to the end of the race. But he also understands that being at your peak means being in control.

At the poker tables, players don't need to worry about spinning off the track into the wall from a momentary lapse of concentration, or a tire blowout at 200 kph because they didn't pull into the pits. But every poker player has experienced some proverbial version of those when they lose control and don't know when to take a break to fix the machinery.

"Only when we're in control are we in charge of our own race," Ricciardo said in a recent video. "It's sometimes important to hold back, take a break and take stock. It's important to know when it's time to pit."

Gambling and Auto-racing have a lot in common as McLaren Driver Ricciardo explains

WPT Super $215 is In the Books

There were 484 total entries in WPT Super $215, and Sergei Konshu made it through all of them to bag the biggest prize. He took home more than $16,600 in total, while Joao M Baumgarten from Brazil was second for almost $8,000 total.

They didn't quite make the guarantee in this one, but came close collecting $96,800 by the time registration closed. Baumgarten and Konshu shared about $7,100 each for the top prize, but the difference in bounties comes in the winner's final bounty total.

partypoker streamer Jeff Gross managed to grab a seat at this final table, but ended up excusing himself early in 8th place. It was still a decent day for the birthday boy with more than $1,400 in total wins.
