A fourth cash and first win of the summer in the PokerNews Daily Deepstacks has helped Vlad Iuhas to the top of the PokerNews Deepstack Leaderboard.

Two of these cashes came this week, with his first-place finish on June 13 netting him $8,122 — the best result of his poker career.

Iuhas topped the 244-entry field in the $200 Daily Deepstack, taking the lion's share of the $37,820 prize pool.

Meanwhile Charlton Hawes' win in the 1pm Deepstack on June 11 for $25,495 sees him sit in second place.

Exclusive: Men 'The Master' Breaks Silence on WSOP Controversy | PokerNews Podcast #837

Chad Holloway

In the 837th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway is joined by Johnnie Vibes and PokerNews Ontario Ambassador Kyle Anderson at Level 9 in Las Vegas and talk about the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP)!

Not only do they discuss the controversial shorted-pot hand from the Gladiators of Poker involving Men Nguyen, but Chad actually chatted briefly with "The Master" about it. That led to a conversation about Men "The Master" Nguyen's reputation and legacy within the poker world, and in turn to a discussion on fact versus fiction. Speaking of which, check out our five-part article series on Men Nguyen here.

From there, Anderson talks a bit about his ambassador duties for Ontario, and then talks about being put in the spotlight by Phil Hellmuth, which inspired Johnnie Vibes to chime in with his desire to be scolded by the "Poker Brat." Speaking of Vibes, he shared the details behind how the chip stack of Adrian Mateos went missing after a break in the $2,500 Freezeout, and then the crew dives headfirst into Nick Schulman winning the $25,000 High Roller for his fifth WSOP gold bracelet. Is he destined for the Poker Hall of Fame next year over Scott Seiver? It's a coin flip according to the panel.

The crew highlights a handful of other WSOP bracelet winners from the past few days, and preview the Phil Ivey vs. Jason Mercier vs. Danny Wong finale in the $10,000 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw event. Finally, get an update on the $25K Fantasy league and learn who won the BetMGM Poker Championship for $613,914!
