PokerNews Podcast: Vanessa Kade Wins $1.5M; Guest Veronica Brill Reveals All
On the latest episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Jeff Platt, Sarah Herring, and Chad Holloway discuss Vanessa Kade’s historic $1.5 million win in the PokerStars Sunday Million 15th Anniversary, the new SCOOP schedule, and Michael Addamo nearly winning another GGPoker Super MILLION$ title.
They also discuss BetMGM launching online poker in Michigan, Jared Jaffee capturing his third WSOP Circuit gold ring, poker on TV, and PokerStars postponing the next PSPC until at least 2022.
Finally, they welcome guest Veronica Brill, who chats with Sarah about her start in poker, finding herself whistleblowing on Mike Postle, and becoming the new host of PokerGO’s Poker After Dark.
