The Biggest Pot in High Stakes Poker History Just Happened; Negreanu Makes HCL Debut

from PokerNews Podcast

In the 1,005th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by WPT Global, Chad Holloway and Mike Holtz are back to talk the latest and greatest from the poker world. That includes a week full of High Stakes Poker live stream action, and some record-breaking pots played by the likes of Eric Wasserson, Texas Mike Moncek, and Andrew Robl. See two hands that set records for largest pots in the 20-year history of High Stakes Poker! Speaking of live streams, Daniel Negreanu ventured into the cash game streets by making his Hustler Casino Live (HCL) debut, where he played a fascinating hand against Sam "Señor Tilt" Kiki. From there, Mike and Chad discuss cheating in LA poker rooms and how a ban on phones has been suggested as a possible solution. But is that a good idea? Other stories include a look ahead to the WPT Seoul, recapping Talking Stick's 20th Annual Arizona State Poker Championship, winners from the EPT Barcelona, and remembering poker greats Pierre Neuville and Brent Carter. Check out those stories and more in the latest episode of the PokerNews Podcast! A new PokerNews Podcast drops every Thursday at 8a PT / 11a ET / 4p UK time.
