On the latest episode of the PokerNews Podcast sponsored by Global Poker, Chad Holloway, Connor Richards, and Matt Hansen announce a very special giveaway in which one lucky listener of the show will win a cruise package for the upcoming WPT Voyage, one of the most anticipated poker events of the year! Be sure to listen for details on how to enter, and be sure to review the Terms & Conditions of the competition.
They then talk about the theft allegations against Anthony Zinno, Phil Hellmuth calling out Ike Haxton for wearing a mask, and Daniel Negreanu and Matt Berkey arguing about Jonathan Little, who went about his business and crushed the PokerGO Cup!
Additionally, Jason Koon has departed GGPoker, Hermann Schweiger won the Hendon Mob Winter Championships Main Event, and Phil Laak is returning for Season 12 of High Stakes Poker! Oh, and Connor caught up with Leon Wheeler, the Director of Poker Operations at Resorts World, which is gearing up to host some big poker series in 2024!
Finally, the crew take a look ahead to both the Celebrity Poker Tour Invitational II and CSOP "All in for Epilepsy" on Feb. 8, as well as Leigh Steinberg's 37th Annual Super Bowl Party, which PokerNews will attend.
