PokerNews has been bringing you live reporting from the biggest poker tournaments for over 17 years, and it's time for a brand new addition to the live update product with the launch of PokerNews emojis.
Ever been scrolling through the PokerNews live updates and thought to yourself "Wow, what a punt!" 🏉
Or been following your favorite player only for them to bust? 💔
Or had to deal with an egregiously long Christoph Vogelsang tank? 🐢
Well, now you can show exactly how you're feeling with the launch of 24 bespoke reaction emojis which are available to be used on every single post in our live reporting.
These allow readers to react to individual hands, conveying emotions, reactions and expressions that were previously confined to Twitter threads, text messages or WhatsApp groups.
From classic Thumbs Up and Heart to poker-specific Fish and Money Bag emojis, we've worked hard to find the ideal selection for you to use while enjoying our updates.
All the chips went into the middle preflop with Andreas Olympios at risk for 81,000 in the big blind. Marius Varanavicius covered him in the small blind.
Andreas Olympios: A♠8♣
Marius Varanavicius: 5♥5♦
It was a flip and Olympios took the lead with aces and eights after the runout of 10♠8♥3♥A♥, but Varanavicius binked a fourth heart on the J♥ river to give him a flush and the 'deadman's hand' sends Olympios to the rail.

In the 831st episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by PokerStars, Chad Holloway and Kyna England are joined by Nikki Limo, who is filling in for Mike Holtz, at Level 9 Studio in Las Vegas to talk about her time as the Loose Cannon on the PokerStars Big Game. The first two episodes recently dropped featuring Limo squaring off against Phil Hellmuth, Alex Keating, Arden Cho, Lex Veldhuis, and Jennifer Tilly.
Limo discusses how she got cast for the show, what happened when she played "Two Truths and a Bluff," and then Kyna & Chad surprise her by offering up some bluffs of their own. Limo also delves into a big hand that she played against the "Poker Brat" that went poker viral.
The crew then talked about the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) being less than a week away, and take a look at some of the "Best Without a Bracelet" including Maria Ho, Seth Davies, and Bin Weng, just to name a few. Plus, will Phil Ivey be at the 2024 WSOP? Find out what the hosts think in this episode.
From there, they take a look at Jessica Vierling winning the WSOP Commerce $1,700 Main Event for $328,273, plus all the big winners from the Triton Montenegro including Mike Watson, Igor Yaroshevskyy, Adrian Mateos, and Mikalai Vaskaboinikau, who all won seven-figure scores!
Finally, Kyna and Nikki play a game of #PokerThrift in which they have to guess whether or not Chad bought some random poker items he found in secondhand stores in Las Vegas. Oh, and there's a preview of Raminder Singh's appearance on PokerNews' Life Outside Poker show hosted by Connor Richards.
A new PokerNews Podcast drops every Friday at 8a PT / 11a ET / 4p UK time. Make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you do not miss an episode!
