Life Outside Poker is a podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 34th episode, Connor talks with WSOP free-to-play app ambassador Sam Abernathy about growing up in Georgia, studying design, the similarities between gymnastics and poker, finishing third in the 2016 Aussie Millions Main Event, and a notorious slow roll she suffered in that event.
Abernathy also talks about first getting into poker through the WSOP Play app before becoming an ambassador years later, motherhood and being married to fellow poker player Lautaro Guerra, who finished 15th in this year's WSOP Main Event for $450,000.
The start has been pushed back to 5 p.m. to allow time for players to register.
The high-stakes spotlight returns to King’s Resort this afternoon as Event #13: €25,000 No-Limit Hold’em GGMillion€ gets underway at the 2025 World Series of Poker Europe. Cards go in the air at 4 p.m. local time for this two-day spectacle, which has quickly become one of the premier fixtures on the schedule, offering deep stacks, a condensed format, and a chance to capture one of the most prestigious gold bracelets of the festival. Adding even more incentive, the event comes with a €1,000,000 guaranteed prize pool, ensuring big payouts for those who run deep.
Last year, Alessandro Pichierri waited until Day 2 to jump in before storming to victory, overcoming a stacked final table that featured Alex Foxen and Leon Tsoukernik. His win earned him a second career bracelet along with €335,900, proving that timing and composure can be just as valuable as aggression in this event. With another world-class lineup expected, the stage is set for more high-roller fireworks in Rozvadov.
| Place | Player | Country | Prize (EUR) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Alessandro Pichierri | Italy | €335,900 |
| 2 | Alex Foxen | United States | €223,900 |
| 3 | Salih Atac | Switzerland | €141,500 |
| 4 | Leon Tsoukernik | Czechia | €98,200 |
| 5 | Tom-Aksel Bedell | Norway | €75,500 |
| 6 | Sirzat Hissou | Germany | €65,000 |
Players will sit down with a 500,000 starting stack and blinds set to rise every 40 minutes, ensuring a fast-paced yet skill-intensive battle from the very beginning. Day 1 will see the field play through 12 full levels before bags are sealed, while those who prefer to take their chances late can still register up until the end of Level 14 on tomorrow’s final day. That structure leaves plenty of room for both early fireworks and late-entry drama as the tournament builds toward a conclusion.
Stay locked to PokerNews throughout the day for live updates, chip counts, photos, and all the drama as the road to the GGMillion€ bracelet gets underway.
