2020 WSOP.com Online Bracelet Events
We have exciting news for poker fans around the world, especially those following the 2020 World Series of Poker online bracelet events on both WSOP.com and GG Poker.
Given it's a virtual series, we thought players and fans should have an interactive platform in which to engage with one another, as well as us here at PokerNews. That's why we've created a PokerNews Discord server and are inviting you to join our new community.
Discord specializes in text, image, video, and audio communication between users in a chat channel. It's a digital message board where you can share your thoughts with others who also love poker. The Pokernews Discord will give you a place to get caught up on whats going on in poker today and a place where you can share your thoughts with others.
Think of Discord as a house where different categories within the server are like a different room in the house. You can jump from one to the other to interact, gather information, or just have some fun.
We give you an area to share your bad beats, share your big wins, and talk about what is going on in poker today. We'll share links to live updates, highlight the biggest poker news, and offer special promotions.
In the latest edition of the PokerNews Podcast, Sarah Herring, Jeff Platt, and Chad Holloway break down the first week of World Series of Poker online bracelet events. They even welcome guest Matt “Bodeyster” Bode, who won a bracelet in Event #4: $500 No-Limit Hold'em Super Turbo for $97,091.
They also discuss the settlement in the long-running legal battle between Phil Ivey and Borgata, offer their thoughts on Mike "The Mouth" Matusow's controversial live stream comments after busting an online bracelet event, and breakdown deep runs by both Phil Hellmuth and Daniel Negreanu.
