PN Podcast

In the latest edition of the PokerNews Podcast, Sarah Herring returns to join Chad Holloway and Jesse Fullen in talking about all the latest in the poker industry. That includes the legend himself, Doyle Brunson, celebrating his 89th birthday. Listen to folks like Phil Hellmuth, Eli Elezra, Matt Savage, and Stefanie Ungar wish "Texas Dolly" a happy birthday.

They also dive into the uproar caused by Hustler Casino canceling a $250K GTD tournament after it had already held four flights, discuss Dan Shak getting into hot water in the commodities world, and debate whether or not they could live in Bally's for a year for $100,000, a popular prop bet that was talked about on social media this week.

Other stories include popular streamer Ludwig calling out the same scammer that Ethan “RampagePoker” Yau did, winners from the recently-completed 2022 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open (SHRPO), and the new slate of online bracelets coming to WSOP.com and GGPoker. Finally, the crew remembers three-time bracelet winner Panayote "Pete the Greek" Vilandos, who passed away at the end of July.

Matthew Head: {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Ronald Johnston: {a-}{2-}

The board ran out {3-Spades}{10-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Johnston picked up a pair of twos to come from behind and secure the double.

Darnell Chips Up With Big Pot

Level 4 : 200/300, 300 ante

Action was three ways and Mary Darnell was all in from middle position with {6-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{7-Spades} on the board and all three hands turned up. A player in the small blind was committed for less, and a player under the gun had called to attempt the double knockout.

Small Blind: {7-Diamonds}{5-Spades}
Mary Darnell: {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}
Under-the-Gun: {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

Darnell was ahead with a set of sixes, but she needed to dodge a few outs to get there. The turn was {2-Hearts} and the river was {k-Clubs}, with no help for either of the other players, and Darnell picked up the knockout and the big pot.
