Is it the Christmas holidays yet? Bah, humbug: don’t you know there’s, like, three of the biggest poker festivals of the year going on right now?
Prague, Las Vegas and The Bahamas are where it’s at, and PokerOrg is at all of them so we can bring you everything, everywhere, all at once.
But - despite our best efforts at cloning - there’s only one Sarah Herring, and she’s back with another super-speedy run through the biggest poker stories of the week, right from tableside at WSOP Paradise.
75 seconds is all you need to get up to speed. Hit play above now for all the juice you need to know.
What’s going down this week?
- WSOP Paradise in The Bahamas is nice and all, but Brad Owen’s been there before and ran into a ‘known murderer’. He’s just sayin’. Brad happens to be an ambassador for the competing WPT event in Las Vegas. We’re just sayin’.
- Do poker coaches hold back secrets from their students so they can hoard them for themselves? Chance Kornuth swears he doesn’t, but isn’t above pointing fingers. Is someone out there in The Bahamas keeping the lost secrets of Atlantis?
- One player who claims he doesn’t study is freestyle rapper Alejandro ‘Papo MC’ Lococo, and the poor guy has had a tough week. Imagine trying to carry over $12M in winnings all the way back to your hotel room. And with murderers on the loose.
- Joking aside, Ryan Feldman actually has had a hard time, taking his eye off the ball long enough to make a critical error on a stone bubble worth $755,000. Did his coach skip that part of the course?
You can wrap your eyes around all the above in under a minute and a half. That’s the Showdown way, so be sure to come back every week for your instant poker hit.
