In the 868th 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 bitter social media feud between Vanessa Kade and Ryan Depaulo, which started over a sponsorship for Benjamin "Bencb" Rolle and saw the likes of Charlie Carrel and Kevin Martin chime in.
You'll also get to check out the recent ClubWPT Gold $5M Freeroll Invitational winners, which includes Kyna, and how the reigning WPT World Champ Dan Sepiol won $1 million in a daily fantasy football contest on Thanksgiving.
