In the 859th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by WPT Global, Chad Holloway and Kyna England are joined by Jamie Kerstetter at Level 9 Studio in Las Vegas to talk about the WPT World Championship, which isn’t featuring a guarantee this year but instead is offering players the opportunity at a $5,000,000 Freeroll, the largest freeroll in poker history!
The crew also talks about their favorite places to play poker in Las Vegas. At the same time, Jamie shares her experiences running deep in the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Ladies Event, attending the grand opening of the Potawatomi Poker Room in Milwaukee, and Ladies’ meet-up games inside the new Venetian Poker Room. Speaking of which, did you know Jamie was the first person to ever fold in the new poker room? It’s true, and you can hear the story here.
Chad then gets Kyna and Jamie to play the first-ever edition of “Who Tweeted It?” Also, hear about the upcoming PokerNews Podcast and Life Outside Poker Meet-Up Game (MUG) at Resorts World on Saturday, Oct. 12 at 7 p.m.
Oh, and don’t forget, you could win a $10,000 NAPT Gold Pass via either the PokerNews Podcast & Life Outside Poker Podcast giveaway or the Path to the NAPT for online players.
