Can we all stop filming poker fights, please?

It’s never a good look and it’s horrible to see. I really think we should stop glorifying these types of videos.

The WSOP 2027 may well be getting a coverage facelift.

But wow, if they pull this off (RedZone NFL style) coverage it could be the best thing to happen to the poker world in a long time.

But as Phil Hellmuth says, they will need SO MANY cameras. And so much staff.

Just hope they can achieve it.

Wow, this is a super transparent response from QQPK.

Pads is right, this is a really heartening response when some companies don’t even bother to comment.

First it was 724 bots. Now it might be over 12K.

These are insane numbers if true. Someone fire up an investigation already.

Phil Ivey: “Don’t miss the bus”.

Watch the whole clip!

Jeff Platt tells us what we can expect from WSOP 2027 and beyond when it comes to the coverage.

Apparently it will be a fully customizable experience; think NFL Sunday but make it for the World Series of Poker.

If they can pull this off, it would be huge.

Sharing, because we all love a Rounders clip.

Tell me I am wrong!

Another day, another wild story from the poker world.

This time regarding a stabbing of a Hustler Casino poker player.

What. Is. Happening.

Improve your out-of-position strategy playing as a raiser.

It’s a spot that many players struggle with, and this article offers a solid breakdown of GTO strategies for different flop textures.

A problem with being a nit at the table.

It may seem like a great strategy as you’re never in a spot to lose money, but to justify the hours spent at the table, you need to actually find profitable spots via bluffs and value bets that get paid at least every now and again.
