In an interview with PokerNews, actor James Woods made a passioned plea for the Poker Hall of Fame to induct his longtime friend, "Miami" John Cernuto.

It's that time of year again for the poker community to begin discussions about who should be the next to reach poker's most elite club. The WSOP Poker Hall of Fame will begin taking fan nominations for the one-person Class of 2024 next month, and then the living members of the HOF will vote on a winner based on the top fan vote getters.

Eric Baldwin raised from under the gun and James Chen called one seat over. Baldwin bet the J♠8♦5♦ flop, Chen raised, and Baldwin called, leaving just a single 5K chip behind. The 4♠ on the turn got quickly checked by both players.

Baldwin checked the J♥ river and Chen flicked in a single 5K chip, which prompted some chuckles from the table. After some thought, Baldwin reluctantly flicked in his final chip and Chen rolled over A♦Q♣J♦7♥ for three jacks and an eighty-seven low.

"Good game, nice hand," Baldwin said, who mucked A♣4♣K♠Q♠.
