PN Podcast: HCL Investigation & $1.2M Hand, Koon vs. Hellmuth; Neidgrano on WPT Wynn
On the latest episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway and Connor Richards come to you from the World Poker Tour (WPT) World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas and the European Poker Tour (EPT) Prague respectively.
They discuss the $1.2 million pot from the Hustler Casino Live (HCL) live stream, as well as the HCL results regarding their investigation into the Garrett Adelstein cheating allegations against Robbi Jade Lew. In addition, they recap Jason Koon's victory against Phil Hellmuth in High Stakes Duel, the World Series of Poker (WSOP) releasing dates for 2023, and a controversy that grew out of Ethan “Rampage” Yau's victory in the WPT Wynn $25K High Roller.
They also offer highlights from the EPT Prague, recap Blake Bohn's win for his record-tying fourth MSPT title, Isai Sheinberg and Vince Van Patten receiving WPT honors, and other big stories from the WPT World Championship, including who is still in.
Finally, hear interviews from the WPT World Championship w/ Brad Owen, Lynn Gilmartin, and GGPoker Ambassador Daniel Neidgrano (AKA Daniel Negreanu).
