$1.6 Million Bad Beat Jackpot Hits During MSPT Canadian Poker Championship | MSPT Podcast Episode 6
The Major Series of Poker: The Tour (MSPT) has joined forces with PokerNews for a biweekly podcast, which is available in both audio and video formats.
In the sixth episode, Chad Holloway and Kyna England are back to catch you up on two huge stops over back-to-back weekends. That includes highlights from the 2025 MSPT Spade Poker Championship at Michigan's FireKeepers Casino, which drew an absolutely massive field, as well as the MSPT Canadian Poker Championship at Playground outside Montreal. It was the MSPT's first time hosting an event outside the United States, and it turned out to be a good one with 14 Gold Card events and a $1.6 million Bad Beat Jackpot that hit.
The duo also highlights a set-over-set hand from the MSPT Michigan that went viral, Jake Long claiming a second Gold Card, and George Janssen winning the MSPT FireKeepers opening event while awaiting felony sentencing. Toss in other side events winners, video highlights, and a look at the current MSPT Season 16 Player of the Year race with just three stops to go, well, it's an episode you won't want to miss!
