Christian Carey shoved for 28,000 and Radek Kotas called with the exact same stack in the next seat. Aisikaer Aikeremu was behind them both and made the call, which gave him a chance to eliminate two players in the same hand.
Christian Carey: J♥10♣
Radek Kotas: K♣9♣
Aisikaer Aikeremu: A♦Q♦
The flop of 10♠K♦Q♣ gave everybody a piece as Carey flopped a pair and an open-ender, Kotas hit top pair, and Aikeremu hit middle pair plus a gutshot.
The K♥ turn gave Kotas trips, and the 6♥ was a brick, which meant Carey hit the rail and Kotas tripled up.
Life Outside Poker is a new podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 21st episode, Connor speaks with Survivor legend Boston Rob, aka Rob Mariano, about growing up near Fenway Park, learning poker at the age of 6, studying psychology at Boston University, applying for Survivor and winning Season 22, his recent appearance on Deal or No Deal Island and filming an upcoming season of The Traitors.
Boston Rob also revealed a story about Costa Rican authorities raiding a mansion known to host high-stakes poker games during a 2006 filming that included Daniel Negreanu, Josh Arieh, David Williams, Michael Mizrachi and actress Cheryl Hines.
"(Gambling mogul) Calvin (Ayre) had a big party at the house, and they came in guns drawn," he said. "And we were fine, but we all had to stay at the party until they checked our passports and everything. I think it was a little bit of a shakedown. But we had a good weekend."
Rubens Sellam opened to 6,500 under the gun, and received calls from Nakul Sharma in middle position and Juho Suutari in the big blind.
On the A♣6♠3♣ flop, Sellam continued with a bet of 8,000 and received a call from both of his opponents.
The 8♥ hit on the turn, and Suutari checked once more. Sellam fired out a bet of 17,000, and Sharma again called. Suutari then check-jammed for 38,000. Sellam called, but then folded to a three-bet jam from Sharma for 83,000.
Juho Suutari: A♥J♦
Nakul Sharma: A♠8♠
Sharma had top two pair versus Suutari's pair of aces, and Suutari could not find the jack he required on the 3♠ river.
Fotios Ntamaris opened from under the gun to 6,000. Bo Jin three-bet to 22,000 leaving 500 behind. Action folded around to Ntamaris who asked for the rest. Jin obliged and the players showed down.
Bo Jin: K♠J♣
Fotios Ntamaris: K♣10♣
Ntamaris made second pair on the 10♦A♦2♥ flop but the Q♠ gave Jin Broadway. He faded the jacks for a chop and the 7♦ secured him the double up.
In the 867th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, sponsored by the free-to-play WSOP App, Chad Holloway, Kyna England, and Mike Holtz are at Level 9 Studio to discuss the "controversy" of Doug Polk making the final table of his own poker tournament down at The Lodge in Austin, Texas. Should a poker operator be allowed to play in their own event? That seemed to be the question of the week in the poker world.
The crew then played "Race the Ace" to determine a winner in ourgiveaway for a seat into the ClubWPT Gold $5,000,000 Freeroll Invitational (the answer to how many engraved plates are on the WPT Mike Sexton Champion's Cup was 374)! From there, it is a look at Maria Ho winning the Celebrity Poker Tour (CPT) 2024 Championship and Chad got to meet Impractical Jokers Brian "Q" Quinn and Joe Gatto, Sketch, and Vegas Matt.
Kyna then shares highlights from her trip to England for the PokerStars Women's Winter Festival. Then things wrap with a look at the upcoming Bar Poker Open taking place in Florida from Dec. 6-8 (Norman Chad will be there to do commentary)!
