In the 878th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which has been nominated for 'Podcast of the Year' at the Global Poker Awards, Chad Holloway, Kyna England, and Mike Holtz remember poker legend "Miami" John Cernuto, who recently passed away from cancer at the age of 81. PokerNews' Calum Grant then sits down with Charlie Carrel to discuss his recent social media post calling out an alleged scammer he claims owes him $60,000. That led Mike to call out a Las Vegas poker player that he says owes him and many others money. From there, Mike dives into the bleak state of online poker in Nevada, which has been compounded by the legal challenges facing the Sweepstakes Model utilized by several poker entities.  Kyna then talks about going deep in another MSPT tournament and reaching MSPT Icon status, Anthony Scarborough winning the Poker Bowl IX in Las Vegas, and the RunGood Poker Series (RGPS) partnering with ClubWPT Gold for their 2025 Spring season. The crew then toss it to Connor Richards for a special look inside the new Venetian Poker Studio complete with an interview with Venetian Director of Poker Operations Tommy Larosa. From there, the crew discuss a pair of basketball-related stories with strong connections to the poker world, how Ethan "Rampage" Yau came to the rescue, and finally a reminder to enter our giveaway for a copy of The Las Vegas Book, which is valued at $495.

In the 877th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which has been nominated for 'Podcast of the Year' at the Global Poker Awards, Chad Holloway, Kyna England, and Mike Holtz discuss ACR calling Nacho Barbero a "goofball" after serious accusations arose when the Argentinean pro shared a social media post that showed him using GTO Wizard. Patrick Leonard did a deep dive into the data, and while it apparently shows no nefarious activity, it did get the community questioning the situation as a whole.  Chad and Kyna also share their experience at the massive MSPT Potawatomi, which saw them both cash on just one bullet apiece. Get a look at their Wisconsin adventure, and find out where they each finished. They also highlight the winner of that tournament as well as Angela Jordison, who took down a side event. The crew then shows some love for the Venetian Poker Room, examines a big hand between Doug Polk and Mariano that was live-streamed from The Lodge, and Leon Tsoukernik feeling 'Absolutely Fine' two weeks after a 40-hour coma. Finally, get a look at Phil Galfond on the latest Life Outside Poker episode as well as a reminder to enter the PokerNews Giveaway for a copy of The Las Vegas Book valued at $500.

This week, the lads are locked in with poker player, marketeer and Party-Gammon, Kat Arnsby! After briefly discussing Kat's imminent departure from Kindred, the trio dig up a controversial story from the end of 2024, namely Bonomo getting threatened with WSOP Super Main Event disqualification for wearing a keffiyeh. Kat highlights the hypocrisy of the WSOP who days earlier had run a tournament for the widows and orphans of fallen IDF soldiers. Barny Boatman's heartfelt statement and generous auctioning of his first WSOP bracelet is also given some consideration. The conversation then turns to the Global Poker Awards with everyone weighing in on some of the most nominated people. The promise of a more full breakdown of each and every category is made for the next episode (which by the way will be from the Unibet Deepstack Open Barcelona). The discussion turns to the issue of poker-bots, specifically in-house poker bots as David plays a clip from the Sigma Panel at which both he and Kat spoke late last year. From that leaping off point, Dara weighs in with his strong take that liquidity bits of this nature would be terrible for the game. Kat defends her position that they can be a positive thing so long as sites are transparent. Nobody changes anyone else's mind but the debate is held in good spirits and certainly provides both perspectives of a complicated issue. Before closing the curtain on a lively episode, David plugs the upcoming Dublin Poker Festival, for which Unibet Poker is running qualifiers - €50 satellites into both the €570 European Deepstacks and the €350 ACOP.

In the 875th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which has been nominated for 'Podcast of the Year' at the Global Poker Awards, Chad Holloway, Kyna England, and Mike Holtz dive into the wild story of a Supreme Court attorney who is in hot water over poker taxes. What makes the tale of Tom Goldstein so interesting is that the sums he played for were astronomical with him having reportedly won $50 million only to lose it all plus another $14 million. While his name might not be familiar to the poker masses, you may have either heard about or seen him before as he was written about in The Setup, which was written by his friend Dan Bilzerian, and he also appeared on the Hustler Casino Live (HCL) $1,000,000 Cash Game last year as the mysterious, masked "Thomas" where he mucked the winning hand at showdown in a pot worth $540,000! The crew then chat about Leon Tsoukernik awakening from a 40-hour coma after a Propofol overdose, with his future very much up in the air. They also get into a bad poker promotion that almost ran at a Las Vegas casino on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, highlight the upcoming 2025 Leaf Metal Poker trading card set, and discuss popular ARIA dealer Clyde “Snack Attack” Gaskins appearing on Netflix's Queer Eye. Finally, they wrap things up by recapping some big winners including Pamela Belote setting the new women's record for most WSOP Circuit rings, Martins Adeniya taking down the 2025 Lucky Hearts Poker Open Championship, and Andrew Lichtenberger defeating Nick Schulman in the latest PGT event.

This week, we are locked in with the fabulous and talented Caitlin Comeskey!The show kicks off with ‘streaky' Dara explaining that he didn't run naked through the Bonnington last week but rather he cashed an incredible 9 tournaments in a row. Global Poker Awards darling Caitlin delivers a reality check on what we should expect from poker's annual industry awards. She also helps us get to grip with what our expectations should be for ‘instant media'.Dara reviews the Dublin Poker Festival, Caitlin reviews the RunGood Series and David previews the upcoming live events that UNIBET are sponsoring. There's some poker study tips and Caitlin sits on the fence about the upcoming Tice/Becker challenge. Plenty of laughs too in this episode as Caitlin explains how she tried to be a Jackass and the lads argue over who gets more sea-sick!

Jeff is a also a huge NBA basketball fan and college football fan.

Brad Owen discovered poker while in high school, learning the game by studying poker software his dad brought home from work. He continued to play throughout college and even as he earned his masters degree in accounting, but a nine-to-five job was never in the cards for the Santa Rosa, California native.Owen ultimately gave up his day job as a CPA to move to Las Vegas and try his hand at professional poker. He spent years grinding away anonymously at the cash game tables, but wanted a way he could share his journey with his friends and family back home. Taking a cue from his good friend Andrew Neeme, Owen started his own YouTube channel, vlogging his poker sessions for all to see.A little over five years later, Owen has become one of the most popular vloggers on YouTube. The 34-year-old has racked up more than 600,000 subscribers, which puts him alongside Daniel Negreanu as the most watched poker channels online today. In 2019, he won Poker Personality of the Year at the Global Poker Awards, and this year, he added the Best Vlogger award to his mantel.When he's not filming his play, Owen stays busy with Meet-Up Games (MUGs) that take place all over the country, including his very own  poker room. Owen recently became a minority owner of The Lodge Card Club House near Austin, Texas along with Doug Polk and the aforementioned Neeme. Owen is also the newest brand ambassador for the World Poker Tour and will be appearing at various events throughout the season.Highlights from this interview include flipping rundown card rooms with dad, learning poker from a CD-ROM, main event nightmares, almost deleting his first video, inventing nicknames for hands, how the vlog affects play, buying a poker room, being poker's Jim Halpert, rocking out as 'Central Idea,' being an inactive CPA, having sleep envy, avoiding sharks in open water, telling dad jokes, and the karma of cleaning up the casino parking lot.
