In the 898th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Kyna England, and Mike Holtz are back at Level 9 Studio to offer their thoughts on Doug Polk's recent appearance on Kill Tony, the popular Austin-based stand-up comedy program. How did Doug do in front of Tony Hinchcliffe and company? Let's just say you might be surprised. Mike, who made a recent appearance in Daniel Negreanu's vlog, then sounds off on the cancelled WSOP Online bracelet event, the crew discusses the recently-announced changes to the WSOP Circuit, Chad goes to the world's largest casino collectibles show, and Matt Savage offers his thoughts as a special guest speaker. Other topics include bracelet wins by Nick Schulman, Jason Koon, and John Racener, highlights from recent Charity Series of Poker (CSOP) events, and an exclusive interview with famed poker author Michael Kaplan, who recently released a new book, Advantage Players. The veteran scribe shares several poker stories, including Phil Ivey and Kelly Sun's baccarat edge sorting, the legendary Billy Baxter, and what it was like working with Stu Ungar in what was one of the final, if not THE final, interviews before he passed in 1998. A new PokerNews Podcast will drop twice a week during the 2025 WSOP every Thursday and Sunday at 8a PT / 11a ET / 4p UK time.

In the 891st episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and Kyna England talk about that viral knockout punch between two poker players at Red Rock in Las Vegas. See the video and learn what the Las Vegas Metro Police Department had to say when reached by PokerNews. Also, learn about a controversy from the EPT Monte Carlo final table in which Aleksandr Shevliakov, who won the tournament, allegedly shot an angle with six players remaining. It caused quite the stir on the live stream, but was it all as it seemed? Shevliakov took to social media to share his perspective, and let's just say it led to an interesting discussion between the crew. From there, it's recent tournament winners including Jesse Lonis, Maria Konnikova, and Valentin Vornicu; a preview of the WSOP+ App and Tournament of Champions; Allen Kessler living the life of a tournament floorman; and Chad's live reality game charity drive featuring a special "Burger of the Week" at Mark "P0ker H0" Kroon's Player's Bar in Madison, Wisconsin.

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.

In de PokerCity Podcast #62 is Marcel Vonk te gast. Vonk beleefde in 2010 zijn grote pokerdoorbraak toen hij een WSOP bracelet won en $570K in een gigantisch $1K event in Las Vegas. Hij bezoekt jaarlijks de WSOP en speelt regelmatig de Holland Casino Poker Series. Marcel Vonk werkt als natuur- en wiskundige bij de Universiteit van Amsterdam en schreef diverse wetenschappelijke boeken zoals het bekroonde 'Van Heelal naar getal'. In de podcast hebben Mark Roovers en Pieter Salet het met Marcel Vonk over het heelal, maar toch ook vooral over poker. Wat kost gokken jou? Stop op tijd 18+PokerCity Podcast aflevering #62 - Marcel VonkIn deze editie van de PokerCity Podcast is Marcel Vonk te gast. Vonk is al jaren een regular bij de Holland Casino Poker Series en ieder jaar speelt hij toernooien bij de WSOP in Las Vegas. Naast het standaard poker No Limit Hold'em, speelt Vonk daar vooral de 'gekke spelletjes' die je online of live in Europa maar weinig kunt spelen. Want Hold'em is volgens Vonk eigenlijk een beetje saai, 'helemaal als je het speelt zoals ik het speel'.In de gekke spelletjes kwam Vonk ook heel dicht bij een tweede bracelet. Zo werd Vonk in 2014 tweede in een $1.500 PLO voor $163K. In 2018 volgde een vijfde plek voor $23K in een $2.500 Mixed Big Bet toernooi. In Nederland won Vonk in 2018 de €440 Double Stack bij de WSOP Circuit en zo heeft dus zowel een bracelet als een ring te pakken. Quizvraag voordat je gaat luisteren, wie versloeg Vonk heads-up voor de WSOP Circuit Ring?In het dagelijks leven is Vonk onderzoeker bij de Universiteit van Amsterdam als natuur- en wiskundige. Hij schreef diverse boeken over zijn onderzoeksgebieden, zoals 'Zwarte gaten', 'De race tegen de schildpad' en 'Van Getal naar Heelal'.

Daniel Weinman topped the biggest World Series of Poker main event field in history, outlasting more than 10,000 entrants. Incredibly, he almost didn't play in the event and had to be convinced by friends, including six-time bracelet winner Shaun Deeb, to fly back from his native Atlanta, Georgia for the tournament.It was Weinman's second career bracelet, having won his first in 2022 on the way to finishing second in the WSOP Player of the Year race. And despite winning a first-place prize of $12.1 million, Weinman was back at his day job the next week, working as a software engineer for RF Poker, a company that facilitates the operation and security of poker livestreams.Although he focused on cash games for much of his career, Weinman also has a WSOP Circuit ring, and two World Poker Tour titles. In 2017 he won the Borgata Winter Open and followed that up a few months later with a season-ending WPT Tournament of Champions victory.Highlights from this interview include sweating the Wall Street trader game as a kid, playing 24 tables at once, getting robbed at a home game, too much Chinese poker, winning a WPT with his back against the wall, taking a 9-to-5 'poker' job after winning his first bracelet, livestream integrity, how he got talked into the main event, how a two-outer saved more than just his tournament, the reluctant acceptance of added attention, getting his face on a trading card, plans for the bracelet, broken putters, getting fired from the movie theater for beating his manager, golfing with professional athletes and Trump, and how he started his bankroll by being one of the best guitar hero players in the world.

Stephen Song has been tearing up the tournament circuit for the last few years. The New York-born, Connecticut-raised Song was a childhood chess prodigy who found poker while in college, ultimately making a deal with his parents to turn pro. After winning a tournament for nearly $33,000, he was able to pay back his tuition in full before hitting the road on his own. In the years since, Song has racked up more than $5.1 million in live cashes, which includes a World Series of Poker bracelet and three WSOP Circuit rings. In 2022, the 27-year-old cashed in a whopping 44 tournaments and won the World Poker Tour Prime Championship for $712,000 en route to being named the GPI Player of the Year. Highlights from this interview include living in London, nationally-ranked in chess, why school wasn't his thing, squash scholarships, penny-stakes poker with dad, puzzle pirates, winning back his college tuition, the 'glory days of poker' back in 2016, clearing make up for a deceased backer, winning live in front of mom and dad, getting through big fields, not being a dick swinger, never having a job, getting scolded for $1,000 on black, crushing tiger hidden dragon, self-driving cars, and why he won't 'update' his stack until the break.
Dr. Lara Eisenberg is not a professional poker player, but you wouldn't know it by looking at her results. She has already scored a WSOP Circuit ring, and a World Series of Poker bracelet, taking down the Ladies Championship in 2021. Then in December, she pocketed a career-high $481,500 for finishing runner-up in the WPT Prime Championship. The 54-year-old has found a lot of success for someone who only competes on the circuit part time. When she's not staring down the pros at the table, she is usually running her own radiology practice out of her home in Maryland, or enjoying her other hobby, competitive skydiving.Highlights from this interview include being destined for medicine, why she chose not to be a surgeon, her time as a billiards hall hustler, jumping out of a plane on a blind date, landing in a Thailand driving range, becoming a world-record holder, being an early gamer, her time in WPT Bootcamp, FOMO about poker education, studying with apestyles, a profitable decision to late register, donating $30,000 of her winnings, looking for tells, hiking in the Pyrenees, Trinity costumes, the hat lady, and being confused for an astronaut.

Mike Holtz spent his teen years as one of the best gamers around. In fact, at one point he was considered the top-ranked World of Warcraft player and was recruited to join a traveling league called the World Series of Video Gaming. Unfortunately for the Maryland native, the league went bust and he was left looking for his next step in life. There were numerous jobs and even a stint in jail, but after rediscovering his love for poker in a local home game, Holtz decided to move across the country to Las Vegas to be closer to the action. Although he started in cash games, he found himself to be better suited to tournaments, specifically online at WSOP.com under the name 'BrockLesnar.'

Welcome back! On today's show we tackle the big news in the poker world- if Ali Imsirovic is cheating at high stakes. Alex Foxen called him out directly, claiming he is running a stable that all cheats in online poker. Plus he got nabbed hole-card peeking on stream (which while not technically cheating, is frowned upon). We break down why he would cheat and what happens now. Then Mintzy recaps his trip to Cherokee, NC and the WSOP Circuit event he played, with key hand histories. Enjoy!
