Chapter 3 Ep. 26 New Studio, Old Controversies, and the Art of the Fold

Elle and I are recording from the new Ante Up studio! The backdrop’s fresh, the chairs are comfy, and the sound quality… well, let’s just say we’re still working on that part. We talk about the 2025 WSOP Main Event as it continues its march toward crowning a champion, and the WPT is kicking off its always-popular series at the Venetian — one of our favorite poker destinations. Plus, our July Patreon Games are officially scheduled, and there’s still time to join the action! This week’s Call the Floor might be my favorite one yet. Elliott and I dig into a couple of real WSOP controversies — including a ruling that sparked serious debate and a dealer mishap that had the table buzzing. For Hand of the Week, Patrick and I try to figure out how to squeeze max value out of a strong hand — and we wrap it all up with Joe’s One Outer, where I talk about something most players don’t do nearly enough… folding as the play of the day.
