on a 1.2 million euro first prize amongst those banished to the shadows were EPT legends online beasts and the usual cast of colorful characters that's uncommon but the experience of the old school shown through her I've been in the birthing room interesting laden's lock was in oh good you guys are witnessing the sickest and in UPT history on the final table bubble andrew paddling did the dirty work mornin I get very wet setting up a scintillating showdown for the title here we go I'm buckled in over to EPT event host Neil Johnson let's meet the final table in seat number one vying for the ever elusive second EPT title Jake Cody flying the flag for the UK 2 Series bracelets 2w coupe bracelets 2n apt shootout titles he's trying to add another double to his resume today Jason Mercier and it's a second final table the festival finished 26th here in the EPT 8 main event 2nd and chips Andrew pant leg seat number 4 he's slowly circling the globe from final table to final table grants Levy and he is the short stack in seat number five is our chip leader he's from Ireland and looking to ride his chip lead to the end of the rainbow Steve O'Dwyer is that what my jokes sound like seat number six walked away from his most recent final table wearing the fifth bracelet of his amazing poker career Canadian Daniel Negreanu and now he's going for the Triple Crown seat number seven has pushed his career earnings over the three million dollar mark with his run here in the main event Noah Schwartz in seat number eight he has 13 career EPT main event cashes the man who has everyone wondering what he's thinking about Johnnie Laden the fourth member of Team Pro at the table seems to have the biggest rail dealer shuffle up and deal and here is what they are playing for first man out one hundred and three thousand euros the win up more than 1.2 million blinds 2040 with a 5k ante if I can see then I can do it all right there's nothing to I believe I can win really I believe I can bust the mo I think about it every night and day seems like more of a trapped in the closet kind of guy did you rehearse that last night definitely Schwartz and Laden of both folded Jake Cody's out Jason Mercier passes Andrew panelling second biggest stack at the start of the day ace eight in the cutoff and he's raising makes at 88,000 brant levy as junk on the button here he'll fold Steve O'Dwyer gives up the small blind Daniel Negreanu he's had plenty of time to think about it defending this is fine he calls with Jack four of diamonds especially since I think Daniel thinks he's got a post-flop edge over Andrew pant lane heads up to the first flop of the day queen sex jack second pair for Daniel checks to the preflop aggressor Andrew panting continues for 114,000 most players are always check calling here against a huge stack lots of good implied odds if you can improve you can maybe get the full double up Negreanu coals we go to the turn six of spades powering the board Negreanu now a 93 percent favorite he checks a second time see if pant link he's firing away at this he bets again 290 thousand now this barrels a much closer call I still think the moves a call with a plan to possibly fold to another huge barrel on the river but is a right to six hundred and twenty thousand this makes Daniels hand look polarized which one which find I got about eight little over mine I'm not sure why Daniel would do this he's made it look like he's got a six or better or absolutely nothing this is gonna work against and he's already beating like ace eight but what the price is given Daniel would have a hard time getting hands like ace Queen or an over pair to fold paddling gives it off I doesn't have it doesn't have it doesn't no have enough to beat you I wouldn't be true doesn't have the six huh I think Daniel might have been raising for value you doubled over look I know the better play is to just check call check Oh Robert do you think he's walking around for you rock I know how is it Evan of all times then I remember just Intel but there's also bad cards at his home and I could lose Julianne all day the question is what I have pulled the trigger on colleague yeah am i that confident in my read wow he was raising for value and might have even called a shove that I don't know hahaha that would have involved poker pro Daniel Bryan on the rail all the Dan's are here action on Andrew panting Jack ten suited this isn't under the gun raised to 83,000 Ice King for grunt levy looks like it's 3bet get it in time for grant and that is the three better raise to two hundred and five thousand it's a third of his stack hold it around to the blinds Cody I'm Mercia both pass action back on panting panting stack freddy deeb on the final table bubble yesterday with Jack ten suited he calls grant Levy teaches math three days a week in Australia and have the rest of the week I guess he teaches a clinic on how to get out flop by Jack 10 Oh growl maybe shoves panting coals is an 82% favorite it doesn't take a math teacher to tell you leave he's in really bad shape it just takes those little graphics over there leave he needs a nun cub Asil king or he will bust in eighth place there's the flush for paddling is it on the turn levy has a redraw now he needs a club doesn't get it thanks brutal to go out in eighth place but the good news for grant levy is that the only teacher that made more money than him this year is Walter White Andrew panting now has close to four million chips grunt lead he walks away with a hundred and three thousand euros he's had some results in Australia this is his first score on European soil Andrew paling draws first blood at this final table picking off the surety the majestic French Riviera is the perfect backdrop to the pokey stars a Monte Carlo Casino EPT grand final snow wonder these stunning vistas have inspired Hollywood blockbusters and this grandest of finals we have two EPT a listers is it time for Jason Mercier or Jake Cody to make the sequel and close the curtain on the two-time champ Gus think about it if everyone de nada when somebody why not too bright then it is really bright though I used to wear other ninny I was scared of pros like Daniel Negreanu then I realized that you guys don't know anything Goodwin Jason Daniel welcome to Burnsville 700 action Daniel Negreanu with Ace King suited in early position 84 raising to H 4,000 actions on Johnny Laden he folds Jake Cody gives up the button 9 10 suit of a Jason Mercer in the small blind Jason does not have the stack to call on he shops pretty piece is too strong to fold I guess like 5 right 6 jackal easy call good luck bro it's a 4 million yeah could be double up here murse you're not that far behind only a 6 to 4 underdog elk easier with two people from post-war Holland I don't know I think ace for 4 would be a good flop ace four four four four two spades that's fine pays for four - so you just want something a store for seven eight jaggies one diamond I'll take you old 678 he gives me all of the old Dan O'Brien is Jason's roommate hey here's a couple of 9-node from Hershiser I'm not pretty good flop let me wait I don't know how yeah she's gonna wait till the turn well that was lucky okay now we'll count him Daniel drawing dead so 615 most you gets that double up 615 correct 615 I should have soft Bob first yeah yeah then you at least what I got it in good thank you pretty lucky dude of course he'll keep would like to be the first two-time champ oh man he's back when will it end never Oh hopefully never that was good for the game let's go to the broadcast it's good for the game too Jason might have over a million in chips but he forgot the hash tag come on brah chips dig him I'm still waiting for the Sun to win but I would love to be the first one to have the apt delay so we see how it goes I pick to win would be a Johnny Rotten because he's like another favorite chip wise boy favorite in my heart oh so LG's actually anti railing Jason Mercier so he doesn't get the do bleh well L keys to Pixar involved in a hand here Johnny Laden opened with ace Queen he's been 3bet by Jason Murcia who's got pocket eights this is some thin preflop value Jason's going for it but I like it the interesting to see what Jason does if Johnny shoves Johnny just coals he'll have to play the flop out of position it's a favourite for now the flop is ace ace nine trips for Laden it's not the favorite for now rotten checks to the raiser Johnny setting the trap mercy does not fall into it he checks behind deuce on the turn Laden checks again it's been checked to Jason twice now if the light is green the trap is clean no see if that's 135,000 with just 5% equity taking a very small stab at this Johnny races to 300k unfortunately Jason may be convincing himself that he got raised because his bet was so small osya calls the raise we go to the river a queen a full house for lovin boat only he shoves putting mercy all in his hoping maybe Jason was doing some trapping of his own think Jesus regretting that turn call this move does look super bluff II which I actually think makes it look even stronger there is a lot out there that beats two eights and a lot of it hits Johnny's range Jason fell to leave himself pretty much where he was before he doubled up through Daniel Negreanu there's the lay down and Johnny Laden wins a huge pot and the crowd goes wild Norway there's that many Norwegians here did they just say who Skardu I think it was shoot the goof saying if the tour group Jason Mercer looks like he needs a support herb she only loved him off to a great start at this final table he's now third in chips still owed wire and panelling leading the way murse you're the short stack with 16 big blinds Steve O'Dwyer it's been pretty quiet early doors he folds a groaner and Schwartz are out the only thing I regret is not bidding the float Johnny Laden raising from the cart off with a seven suited murse you between ten in the small blind on he shoves I think this is obviously more of a Rhys deal than a hand Jason wants to get called with the paddling's go to big hand in the big blinds look successful or count I think Jason's move might have worked against a seven ace Queen not so much 650 does paneling flat or does he shove over the top cool he calls exile ization warrior Laden faults mercy or crushed just a 28% chance of survival most you're looking for a 10 Andrew Pamela has had his boot on the neck of this final table so far no help for Jason three outs two cards to hit him Mircea one of two players at this final table looking to be the first to time EPT champion but now one card away from elimination a 10 on the river one time not this time Jason Mercier exits in 7th ElkY must be absolutely thrilled now and go back to trying to kill neo on that highway and with Jason outs it's not to Jake Cody to be the first two-time champ the problem with such a stackpanel table you're going to lose a deserving player with every single elimination if someone will play some scoop when it is certain honor the next one Andrew panting playing a lot of hands and it's working out for him he's the new chip leader with nearly 5 million today and throughout the whole tournament I felt very similar to how I felt last year last year I was the chip leader with maybe 30 or 35 left and I got a very unlucky pot against the second biggest stack what a cooler which will something goes out of my control and paneling will be decimated this year nothing has changed and playing the same style then and we'll see what happens I like playing against the best at this stage in the tournament I'm confident against them given the chip stack sizes I would say Steve Agua is the great scarrier ponent he's got a lot of chips he's extremely aggressive and based on his results although I've never played with them he's a very confident and good player I've never carried a trophy of this prestige I mean a lot to me man when you win 1.3 million euros you hire a guy to carry the trophy for you puddling is the current big stocks TiVoed y second on the leaderboard now hello second James I'm gonna tweet it Steve real quick and a lock up my point one percent of them in the super high roller I thought the opposite end of the spectrum is Noah Schwartz the current short stack as we start a new level he'll be playing just 13 big blinds hmm I open it's better than 6 for FC oh look there's no like moving like Queen 10 give me that the head either that's going in there I know she with ace king my pride is Lin the new level is 25,000 50,000 for the 5k ante connection hold it around to Daniel Negreanu he's got Asus we raised this to 115,000 King 10 off of the short stack Noah short and Daniel raises a lot of junk roll he shoves Shawn in love and folds the small blind Jake Cody in the big blind has jacks here comes Jake here eShops I'm all-in Negreanu calls and puts both players at risk these two know they're in deep doo-doo now this is looking like a double elimination I saw you look at the loot loose but when you look back after he went oh yeah sorry oh I had fun if you did as soon as I look back everyone else at the table thrilled bad diamond foolish pot was full hopes fading for our last potential two-time winner he's been card dead all day well no one's drawing dead yet definite down Oh close waiters go ahead you got the club exactly flow rate nine of clubs some funky things can happen soccer clubs it's an ace on the turn so Schwartz is now drawing dead he is definitely out and sick so look we go good Schwartz out Cody can still survive he needs a jack two outs one card to come it's a ten double elimination what's in six Cody in fifth thank you know as an accomplished player in America but this was his first EPT cash and that cash is for one hundred and eighty nine thousand euros because Jake only had more chips at the start of the hand he officially finishes one spot higher and he collects two hundred and fifty one thousand euros and guess what kids we are four handed we'll find out how you can get live updates during European Poker Tour by going to PokerStars calm welcome back to the PokerStars of monte carlo casino EPT grand final before the break Daniel Negreanu woke up with pocket rockets and pulled the trigger a Marlin destroying all hope of crowning a 2-time champion in season 9 Jay Cody joins Jason Murcia on the rail it's always like the supply and when this close I've come fifth place like it's not to go poor Beth next time as long as I keep playing poker yeah I think I'll probably win another EPT but I'm just gonna keep buying in and hopefully keep winning in the future off from trial get more chances to do it now only four remain I realized see Johnny when actually joining loaded I think it seems we playing really well right now Daniel's kinda in the zone and I think Johnny's playing real well I really feel like either Daniel or Johnny's gonna win this if Daniel can fade one more elimination this will be his best ever EPT finish he came fourth in Vienna during season seven I had folded six four in the Bible absolutely I want you to know this focus respect Hagen I know I feel good yeah it's your big time a game Johnny mixing it up you know little this little that another premium hand for Negreanu Queens under the gun and he raises to 115,000 Laden's got nines and III bets two three hundred and five K Queen Jack for O'Dwyer in the big blind he passes action back on the ground very likely to see another bat but will Daniel put Johnny all in or will he try to let Johnny do it himself all-in Daniel shops did you get back-to-back yes I actually think Johnny should sometimes find a fold here Daniel doesn't make a ton of moves and nines are not doing well against his shoving range Loudoun Colts get it thank you lucky yes Daniel's hand holds it will guarantee the best EPT finish for each of these two guys Johnny finished eighth and Budapest in 2008 picking up some hands no kidding picking up some ladies some lovin the player at risk and way behind all spades on the flop it does give Vlad in a gut shot most fatally Wow Johnny managed to gain equity after the flop that is not easy to do two faiths I'm happy you think it's blessed chopped it up Daniel drasi two spades and a nine or a ten it's annoying the miracle caught four Laden I needed Tammy trips her clean Daniel not dead yet let's mix it both these guys severely under reacting in such a huge pot the river card is an ace a bad beat from the chrono and Johnny looking shutters up man Daniels the consummate pro he has got to be feeling it on the inside though love you Daniel 23 safe okay like a knife what's that I felt like I felt like your knight it's coming it's all the matters laden now up to 4.3 million what's that she kitties shoot a moose I think that's an anti Canadian champ they're like probably eight or nine and we just rooting for Rihanna over at the rail yesterday we all went out to celebrate him coming on the final table he wasn't there because he was resting but he's been feeling really good and calm through the high hopes a bunch of the region friends they'd like to make some action to her health aware shouting shoot goose and that's the term of we're having a good time shoot goose see this that means that hospital which actually it doesn't make too much sense it just something in between friends but it's quite fun for a small clique you mine we kind of already started partying already they're already celebrating anyway so whatever happens happens and well always do hopefully win inside jokes are a lot like inside straights really hard to get them and even when you do they're often not worth the trouble well Johnny's gonna be first to speak here with his newfound wealth the growling elder low man at the table with 1.3 million at the start of this hand Laden's raised under the gun with ace-queen Andrew paneling's got a suit at a seven he calls Palin can defend the button there if he wants he's certainly got the chips Marlin Negreanu shoves from the big blind 1.3 1.3 for Lawton quickly Cole's Daniel had to Johnny had to have fair hold them let's play Hold'em fours see what I did there you guys get it no put a four I've been asking for a four legged diamond every hands Oh ace four four no no not even that yeah ace for for asar yeah ace for for you're good for out there not most beautiful force I want quads a store for horrified Jack is fine for five Jack you make a wheel Johnny just need a little job huge moment these two are flipping how they can deal please it's not all about you Steve King ten deuce flop okay it's a little exciting you need big I need little for please no medium that's boring tell me once big I want little there's way more little ones than big ones that's a little one really little now for Oh hearts or something he wants big little one see you guys now I go under Daniel needs to feed an ace queen or jackets a jack nice Andrew and Daniel Negreanu hopes of completing the Triple Crown here in Monaco have been dashed where's my money and that was fast two hands that's all it took to send Daniel Negreanu to the rail and forth for the second time in his career really have to respect Daniel's game but especially his attitude a Laden is now force suppose anybody is uh interested in looking at numbers uh I like to play like Burkett fair enough let's kill him and show it off what does Johnny want to do what is Laden think about that I want to live in an hour both Johnny Laden and Steve O'Dwyer interested in discussing a deal but Andrew pant link says no he's the big stack he wants to put some pressure on these guys yeah well I started out great I doubled my chips by grinding a little bit and taking advantage of some weakness that I saw and you know then I got a little unlucky a few spots with Ace King against nine ten and then of course the big key hand for me was two queens against two nines and after that I had a chance to double up with fours against ace Queen and one card to come and it didn't come so that's how I'm in fourth but I thought I played pretty pretty pretty good today I'm gonna say that of the three the one that makes the most sense to win would be Steve old wire first hand of 36 - you know Dwyers raised his button paneling can definitely defend this three-handed especially with his stack écoles we are going heads up to the flop my guess is that Steve is gonna have an advantage post flop especially in position nine deuce deuce ace high still good paddling checks to the preflop aggressor and Steve does not continue he checks behind seven of hearts on the turn oh do I know with a flush draw see if panting takes a stab he plays pretty fearless Lee got a respect that he will bet the time he over bets the pot 385,000 this is a big bet for more than 10% of STIs remaining chips but he might feel as if he's got to make this call based on what he could win if he goes run a runner that's implied odds there's the call the river is not a heart but it is a queen giving O'Dwyer top pair panting now checks Steve probably knows his hand is gonna be good here a lot the yellow chips worth 25,000 each O'Dwyer going for value look at that 750,000 Scott Seiver and Jesse Alvarado giving Steve their thoughts between hands totally allowed Steve has made a great polarizing value bet with an unpolarized hand which makes us emerge go the best hand here 21 specifically designed to get a hero call out of a pocket pair a race hi I'm paddling just hero with ace high steve-o - I played that River masterfully they are right to be patting each other in the back for that one that was huge Dwyer back up to four and a half million close to where he started the day this is my fourth EPT final table for final tables in about twenty EPTs is pretty good just work really hard try to be more focused than anybody else potato no titles yet out of the three appearances I made previously lost heads up and made a deal with benny spindler last year in london just never really had an Ingo in Copenhagen when I made the final table there and then this year in London I was chip leader going into that final table and just lost the flip for half the chips in play seven handed I got fifth there but you know really wasn't disappointed I know coin flips are part of the game being so close three times previously really would like to close this one out and win this one so I can stop thinking about the ones that I missed out on I play these tournaments because the competition is the best in the world to win one of these tournaments with so many great players that final table that would be the most I just want to play against the best and really challenge myself we joined this hand on the river O'Dwyer 3bet panting preflop it went check check on the flop and on the turn Ana Dwyer has checked a third time and when it checks all the way to this point Andrews four is almost always going to be good there's the over bat from titling one million into a pot of eight hundred and seventy thousand typically this is a spot where I'd say it's really tough to get action out of a worse hand but Andrews doing the Steve what Stephen just did to Andrew a minute ago making it really aggro overbet to induce a hero call out of ace high this is a move that is risky but can pay huge dividends and as an essential part of being a consistent tournament winner Steve is seriously contemplating this call it's for a quarter of his remaining chips he tolls and ship that 2.8 million chip pop - panting credit where credit is due that was a nice bet and right now Steve's rail has some very unhappy various stages of facial hair thank you not laying back up over seven million guys your boys winning you look like you just got the room service bill yep he is on course to join those faces on the wall as an EPT grand final champion Johnny Laden Queen ten on the button raises to 120 thousand six is for O'Dwyer in the big blind lamb is going to be opening pretty wide so pretty much any pair is going to be a three bet there is the three bet - three hundred and seventy-five thousand how does Johnny respond with a fullback by the looks of things he re-raises to 800,000 maybe a little aggro but it's hard to fold three handed one O'Dwyer shoves see told you Johnny's getting almost exactly two to one and he's probably not too happy about that since it's not really enough to make this call which means he's gonna have to fold away around 800 K in chips Wow Loden Cole's somehow Johnny talked himself into calling and he's only as bad as a race this is a huge flip for a difference in prize money of nearly 400,000 euros a flip for five million chips Steve O'Dwyer the player at risk marginal favorite as this race begins a six on the flop but the gut shot straight draw for Laden that smile is the loudest thing in the room wouldn't expect it to stay that way though if Johnny catches a king Laden's gonna need that king on the river Steve is just one card away from a massive pot and dealing a devastating blow to Johnny's chip stack and spirit the Norwegians don't get what they commanded Oh dryer doubles up through Laden love the silent cool guy head nod to the proud rail nope keep doing that and Johnny Laden is now the low man at the table with less than two million well here's how things stand at the pokey starter monte carlo casino EPT grand final actions on Steve O'Dwyer on the button East ten very strong three handed he raises Laden's got East Jack in the small blind stronger three handed and if Johnny's for bed in Queen ten he'll be three betting ace Jack's surely he is three betting and don't call me Shirley we couldn't see another preflop raising war duan just coals in position even though we know he's dominated this is a totally fine call the hand that flops pretty well it does float well top pair incredible flop for Steve is Hanna's gonna be good more often than a kid at Christmas time Walden was the preflop aggressor and he continues to three hundred and fifty K Steve's most likely play here is to just call that's exactly what he does he can try to induce Bluffs on later streets blank on the time until he looking shoves oh man Johnny is really stepped in it here O'Dwyer calls and Johnny Laden is drawing dead to a jack who's trying to get Steve off some smaller pairs of some floats but we can hash tag this one a fail there's about to be some disappointed Norwegians on the rail and certainly one at the table Johnny Laden the last remaining member of Team Pro has three outs it's a king Johnny Laden exits and third it is his best ever result on the EPT but he will be so disappointed congratu Dolan sister Johnny Laden may be his most crushing EPT finish ever he does walk away with 467 thousand euros plus he did have the best rail at this final table rail has gone eerily silent so we go heads up congratulations on making it this far gentlemen and good luck to you both it's Andrew patenting V Steve O'Dwyer paddling came 26th in this tournament last year Steve O'Dwyer's made four EPT final tables he has a second-place finish on the tour he is looking for the win Pat Lee has the chip advantage as this heads-up battle begins 7 deuce believe it or not opening this heads of is actually kind of fine you can't fold too many of your buttons heads up he raises to 150,000 150 Steve knows heads up strategy like a real housewife knows purses so I'd expect him to play very well he defends with Queen six off the flop is 9 5 3 Queen high still good see if paddling continues the dwyer has checked to him paddling finds 235,000 Steve knows panel he's gonna miss this flop a lot and I think when Steve calls here he expects his hand to be good a fair amount but certainly good if he catches a card he doesn't though it's a king on the ton not a good card for Steve now catching a card won't off and be good enough checks a second time and paddling barrels 640 K O'Dwyer gives it up nice job by pant lling winning that hand the only way he thought he could by barreling harder than a guy going over Niagara Falls when the gap is widening between paneling and O'Dwyer 9.2 million plays 6.7 million it's Steve's button and he's got King 3 off Jeff OH a raising hand makes 180 K panting with 8 9 off will call deaf are calling hand lots of hands will be heads up King five three two path roads wire huge for O'Dwyer Martling has checked Oh Dwight checks behind checking back hoping to induce ten of clubs on the turn I'm paddling now leads for 450 K the patented paddling over pets and it looks like induces exactly what Steve did he calls my guess is he's planning to raise the river if he's given the opportunity seven on the river Steve should still really like his hand and will panting fire into the abyss there's nearly 1.3 million in the middle I'm paddling over bets again 1.7 million and actually after I bet that big I'm not sure Steve will raise it'll just look way strong and there's little chance you'd ever get called by worse so if he raises there's not much chance he'll get called and when he does he's often gonna lose an even bigger pot either way this time I think the over bed is gonna bite Andrew in the pants Ling did you really just go though this is a big decision for O'Dwyer at a pivotal point in the tournament could be super nitty lipstick off he calls paddling mucks and that means Steve doesn't have to show his hand he adds 2.3 million to his stack and he takes the chip lead he must have to present good river to power I did not Steve O'Dwyer might be a comic book character because his rail is full of heroes he's played a lot of mistakes heads up No Limit on line he actually grinded that for a while when he kind of you know was having a bad run of tournaments and kind of got sick of them so I think he's got a pretty strong heads up game I don't know how much Andrews played heads up but I know he's a really good player as well so should be a great match with Steve's chip leader and his heads up experience Andrew panelling has got a Sisyphus style uphill battle in front of him or do I currently has an almost two to one chip lead over panting as the blinds go up to 40 80 with a 10k ante O'Dwyer raises his button with eight ten standard button race hunting has king five suited in the big blind suited king is a very easy to fan and will be good at showdown often enough motley calls all about the post flop play heads up well let's see the flop wow action guaranteed trips for O'Dwyer the second nut flush draw for paddling paddling checks and think Steve has got to bet here to try to build a pot there are lots of bad turn cards not just for Steve but once that could be bad for Andrew - and therefore killers action and Duan does continue for 300,000 panelling obviously can't fold the draw this huge he calls the turn card it's a spade the flush for paddling so he checks again unfortunately for Steve he cannot slow down here because a flush is just so unlikely worst part is if panelling decides to raise a bet here I don't think Steve can fold this is a spade to dig Andrew panting out of his hole and possibly a grave for Steve O'Dwyer 600,000 is the bet on the ton does Andrew go for the raise now signs point to yes that is one point four to five million like I said I don't think Steve can fold he's beating a lot of other aids he's beating all semi Bluffs and when he's up against a flush like now he's got equity to boat up still he is behind how much you have left in green you cut those up paddling has three and a half million behind the only question is does Steve call and reevaluate or just go for the gusto here guess the good news for him either way is he can't go broke paddling is praying that Steve lumps
