In the 1,013th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by Solana, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and Ben Ludlow are back together for a special episode to delve into the biggest stories from the poker world, and there have been a lot of them!
First, they discuss the latest poker room raid in Texas, this one coming at 101 Poker Club in Katy, Texas, where four people were arrested. Then, they turn their attention to Houston, where longtime poker pro Sammy Farha had an altercation with a dealer that had the poker community talking. From there, the trio talk about a wild story involving Lynne Ji and Kevin “KGao” Gao, where the former was arrested for attempted murder after trying to allegedly stab the latter.
Finally, a look at recent tournament winners from the Super High Roller Bowl, Poker Masters, and big wins by both Joe Hachem and Umut Ozturk.
