In the 889th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and [Kyna England talk about the recent drama involving, you guessed it, Maurice Hawkins and Denise Pratt.

What's more, the crew reacts to an interview Hawkins gave on his own podcast, him agreeing to come on the PokerNews Podcast before not responding, and then goes one-on-one with Denise Pratt to hear her side of the story. Mike then shares his experience as the last guest on the final episode of the Only Friends Podcast (they were kind enough to gift a piece of their set to the PokerNews Podcast set), Kyna joins Team Hotdog at the LIPS Spring Festival, and Chad headed up to the NFL Draft in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Oh, and Connor was busy at PokerGO Studio interviewing Jennifer Tilly, Mike Matusow, and comedian Ray Romano during the One Step Closer Foundation's "All in for CP" charity event. Other stories include Pennsylvania online poker joining the MSIGA merged player pool, Mori Eskandani interviewing PA Governor Josh Shapiro, and Robbie Strazynski & others voicing concern over YouTube's algorithm crackdown on poker content.

Maurice currently holds the record for both earnings and titles on the World Series Of Poker Circuit. He has earned more than $1.7 million on the WSOP circuit and is the proud owner of an astonishing 13 gold rings (Now 14!), including 4 from main events.He made his first tournament cash back in 2005 and has since managed to reach 86 final tables, raking in lifetime wins worth more than three and a half million dollars in the process. He exudes confidence and has every reason to do so.As our conversation progresses, Maurice will let you in on what changed his mind and turned a future heart surgeon into one of the best tournament poker players in the world. He will also, of course, shed some light on what has helped and hindered him on his poker journey.I absolutely loved his thoughts and views on game theory as well as his disdain of everything “standard”. Maurice also dives into the importance of family, happiness, and life away from the green felt.The man shoots from the hip and pulls no punches. He’s not afraid to say what he thinks about himself or the game. What you see is what you get, and in our conversation he was very, very generous with dispensing his wisdom. And so, without any further ado, I give you the winningest WSOPC tournament player of all time, Maurice Hawkins…

BIG Dave and Joe review a couple of hands from the action in Vegas involving two friends of the program: Maurice Hawkins and Stacy Matuson. The guys also discuss the success this year of several older players at the series and what keeps them going.

It's not every day that more than a million dollars are being handed out at the World Series of Poker, but yesterday was one of those days! Pablo Mariz from Canada took down the Milly Maker for $1.2 million, and we have a very emotional interview with him on the podcast today. Another man that joins the show goes by the name of Maurice Hawkins, and while he's not yet won, he's well on his way in THE MARATHON! Hawkins best on himself to win a bracelet this summer, and makes some strong claims about his skills and future success at the WSOP. One winner was crowned at the WSOP today, and that was Shane Buchwald who took down the $1,500 Limit Hold'em for $177,985. Other events that are ongoing such as the $10k Razz and $3k 6-max also get discussed, as the latter will be streamed on PokerGO on Friday.  If you want to rewatch Mariz's epic Milly Maker run, you can now do so by going to PokerGO and relive his final table. PokerGO brings you all the WSOP live streaming action from the RIO this summer.

BIG Dave and Joe look at the second week of the WSOP, including Bernard Lee's 2nd place finish, a controversial hand involving Matt Glantz, and a bold proclamation by Maurice Hawkins. The guys also discuss the difference between "live" and "online" players heading into the action at the series and how to exploit it.

BIG Dave catches up with Maurice Hawkins, who has had a breakout year. The guys discuss the latest controversy surrounding Salomon Ponte, the Florida Legislature is also in the news with the crumbling of any advancement surrounding the Seminole Compact, and finish out the show with a review of Matt Savage's 'Social Experiment' played on Saturday.

It's here, our 100th episode, and we're celebrating with a look back over 2 years worth of "entertaining" podcasts that will have you shedding a tear, in more ways than one.But before we get around to that, don't worry, we won't be letting down those of you who rely on us for the latest and greatest gaming news and opinions as we give you the biggest stories of the week. Stories such as a very convincing NX controller leak that turned out to be a hoax; Sony working on a "PS4.5" that's more powerful; Blizzard getting into trouble with an overly sexual lady in Overwatch; and a live demo of downloading and opening Miitomo for the very first time! But that's not all, we've also got news on Street Fighter 5's chart performance; Final Fantasy XV getting a release date, demo, anime and animated film all at once; and even a bit of Turok and Rocket League. Fit to bursting! Then we cast a sorrowful look back at the past 2 years and throw a funeral for all those studios that we've lost over the duration. It's a rainy, dreary day but the bagpipes are in full swing and we've got eulogies to give to game companies that are no longer with us. But it's not all doom and gloom, as we finish off episode 100 with a selection of our favourite ever segments from over 2 years worth of episodes. From testicle eating to lover's spats, movie trailers to Russian rescues, and a little Maurice Hawkins thrown in for good measure, join us in remembering a superb 100 episodes, if we do say so ourselves! Here's to 100 more! (Right-click the file and select "Save as" to download it, or left-click to listen in your browser)
