On the latest The Chad & Jesse Poker Show straight from the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP), Chad Holloway and Jesse Fullen discuss Ali Imsirovic's video addressing the cheating allegations against him.
They are joined by renowned Japanese vlogger Masato Yokosawa, AKA “World Wide Yokosawa.” While players in the United States might think folks like Brad Owen and Andrew Neeme has the biggest vlog followings in the world, that distinction actually belongs to Masato, who regularly clears 600K views on each of his vlogs!
The Japanese vlogging sensation opens up about his start in poker, what inspired him to start a vlog, and how he’s managed to turn it into a smashing success with the help of a creative team. He also talks about his desire to win a WSOP gold bracelet, how Daniel Negreanu and Phil Hellmuth are perceived in his home country, and what the future looks like for poker in Japan.

A player in middle position opened to 11,000 and JJ Liu called from the hijack. The player in the big blind called all in for less.

Big blind: K♠10♣4♦2♣
JJ Liu: K♦J♦3♠2♠
The K♥ turn and 9♠ river left Liu best with two pair and she scooped the pot and lessened the field by one.
