In the 840th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway is joined by Kyle Anderson and Connor Richards at Level 9 in Las Vegas and talk about latest from the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) and about the highly-entertaining Hustler Casino Live (HCL) 'Legends of the Felt' live-streamed cash game.
Highlights include a cooler flop between the NBA's Jimmy Butler and Brazilian footballer Neymar Jr., professional streamer Richard Tyler Blevins (AKA Ninja) slow-rolling boxer Ryan Garcia, and an insane hand involving Neymar Jr. and Alan Keating that saw more than $300K change hands after the river was run out an astounding eight times! You have to believe it to see it.
Meanwhile, the WSOP rolled on by crowning a plethora of bracelet winnings including Chris "Big Huni" Hunichen, who not only won the $100K High Roller but went on to nearly take down the $250K Super High Roller in a week most players can only dream of. Speaking of that SHR, Santhosh Suvarna defeated Ben Tollerene to take down that tournament for $5,415,152 and his second gold bracelet.
Other bracelet winners discussed include Chris Vitch, Maksim Pisarenko, Frank Funaro, and Yuri Dzivielevski, among others.
