Rocha Scoops a Big Pot on the Flop

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Andre Rocha opened to 2,500 from the hijack. Arnaud Cojean in the cutoff called before Luis Cortes Heredia squeezed to 10,900 from the button.

Rocha clicked back to 17,500 but Cojean didn't see this raise and called Heredia's bet. A floor woman was called and he had to call. Heredia completed.

The dealer fanned a flop of 247 and Rocha directly moved all-in for 25,600. Cojean went deep into the tank but folded, and so did Heredia.

Should You Be Worried to Play on this Online Poker Site? | PokerNews Podcast #963

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

In the 963rd episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and Ben Ludlow are back to talk about the recent concerns and unanswered questions surrounding CoinPoker. The offshore site has come under fire for deceptive and unclear marketing, as well as concerns over player funds. Poker pro Manig Loeser recently spoke out about them, and there's been mounting pressure on social media from the likes of Pokerbots1 and Todd Witteles accounts.

The crew also takes a look at the set-over-set cooler that benefited Alan Keating in a $1.2M pot, poker thriving in Texas with the WSOP Circuit at TCH, and the High Roller for One Drop at the EPT Monte-Carlo. Speaking of big tournament series, PokerNews is on-site in the southern hemisphere at the recently relaunched Aussie Millions. Chad turned to his colleagues in the land down under for an update on all things Aussie Millions.

Finally, mark your calendar for the upcoming Mixed Game Festival XIV, which will kick off at the end of the month and continue into the summer.
