In the 970th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by FanDuel Poker, Chad Holloway welcomes a special guest to Level 9 Studio in 91-year-old Vince Burgio, a legend of poker in the 1990s.
One of the most accomplished and feared poker players from 1990 to 2005, Burgio won a World Series of Poker (WSOP) gold bracelet in 1994, the same year he made the final table of the WSOP Main Event. Burgio talks about his success at the WSOP, as well as in popular tournament series of the day like the Poker Hall of Fame Classic, Four Queens Poker Classic, and more.
Burgio also brought in some cool pieces of poker history to show off, including his bracelet, several trophies, poker chips, and lots of silver. Plus, several poker stars stop by to offer their thoughts on Burgio, including Allen Kessler, Phil Hellmuth, and Daniel Negreanu.
Here's your opportunity to hear stories from a poker legend who helped bridge the gap from the old days of Texas road gamblers through to the Poker Boom.
