In the 864th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by the free-to-play WSOP App, Chad Holloway and Kyna England are joined by Connor Richards at Level 9 Studio to talk about a player who was stripped of their World Series of Poker (WSOP) gold bracelet and subsequently banned. Find out who and what happened here.
They then talk about happenings thus far from the 2024 Pokerstars North American Poker Tour (NAPT) at Resorts World including Stephen Song winning the $25,500 Super High Roller, Will “The Thrill” Failla winning a tournament he didn’t even mean to enter, and Kyna’s experience in the NAPT Women’s Event (plus her upcoming trip to London).
Other topics discussed include Jason Koon becoming a PokerStars Ambassador, Chad’s trip to Montreal where Michael Wang won the WPT Playground Championship, and the recent trend of shirtless winner photos, which was actually started back in 2010 by Pascal Lefrancois. PokerNews PA Ambassador Keith Becker then chats with NAPT Gold Pass winner Luis Rivera, Ethan “Rampage” Yau won a CSOP event, and Chad shares highlights from the Jeremy Renner Charity Poker Event at Venetian.
