In the 907th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Kyna England, and Mike Holtz are joined by PokerNews Pennsylvania Ambassador Keith Becker at Level 9 Studio in Las Vegas to discuss the latest news and highlights from the World Series of Poker (WSOP), including how a gold bracelet from 2011 found its way onto eBay, where it sold to an unknown buyer. As it happens, Chad knows the original owner of the bracelet, so he reached out and got the full scoop. It's an intriguing story you don't want to miss.
Plus, Chad talks to Nick Schulman, who was this year's inductee into the Poker Hall of Fame, and the crew discusses the 2025 WSOP Main Event bubble along with Josh Reichard's impressive call on it. Other stories include why a player went off-the-rails tilt crazy, the return of the WSOP Paradise from Dec. 4-18, and a huge $330K pot from the recent Venetian Poker Live $100/$200 NLH cash game.
Finally, Chad did a joint interview from the floor of the WSOP with the WSOP Free-to-Play App Marketing Director Nimrod Avron & Ambassador Samantha Abernathy, the latter of whom recently had her avatar debut on the app! Get a look at what it looks like, along with all the latest from the WSOP Free-to-Play app!
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. Remember to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you do not miss an episode!
