Episode Description

<p>In the 930th episode of the <em>PokerNews Podcast</em>, <strong>Chad Holloway</strong> and <strong>Mike Holtz</strong> are joined by 2024 World Poker Tour (WPT) World Champion <strong>Scott Stewart</strong> at Level 9 Studios in Las Vegas. </p> <p>The trio offers an update regarding the home game fight between <strong>Maurice Hawkins</strong> and aggressor <strong>Eugene Castaneda</strong>, namely a warrant out for the latter. They then dissect the controversial hand played by <strong>Ryan Depaulo</strong>, <strong>Andre Moreira</strong>, and <strong>James Caputo</strong> in the <strong>2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Paradise $25K Super Main Event</strong>. Who was in the right? Who was in the wrong? </p> <p>Speaking of that tournament, <strong>Jesse Lonis</strong> made a big fold that sparked a heated rivalry with <strong>Shaun Deeb</strong>. Even <strong>Daniel Negreanu</strong> weighed in with his thoughts about the play. Speaking of Kid Poker, he fired away in the Super Main Event, which shed light on so many poker pros firing multiple bullets into the uniquely-structured tournament. Some players fired 11, 12, and even 14 bullets throughout the various flights. Is it good or bad for poker? How might recreational players interpret it? </p> <p>Down in the Bahamas, <strong>Charlie Hook, Koray Aldemir, Joao Simao, David Coleman</strong>, and <strong>Aleksejs Ponakovs</strong> have all captured gold bracelets, while <strong>Matan Krakow</strong> took down the <strong>EPT Prague Main Event</strong>. From there, it's over to the WPT World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas, where the <strong>WPT Prime final table</strong> is set, <strong>Lily Lofty</strong> took down the WPT Ladies Championship, and a <strong>new WPT Ambassador</strong> was named in the special Mystery Quest event.</p> <p>Finally, <strong>Jonathan Little</strong> is coming out with a new book, so we thought it'd be a good time for another giveaway. It's your chance to win a copy of Little's book <em><strong>100 Essential Tips</strong></em>.
