Turning WSOP chaos into primetime content, one edit at a time.

Omaha Productions took on the herculean task of turning twelve days of WSOP Main Event madness into just six TV episodes. Apparently, the secret sauce is lots of cameras, even more footage, and a willingness to cut a hundred hours down to a highlight reel.

Wow! What. A. Lineup.

These videos never get old—well, I mean, they do, but that’s the point. It’s a dose of nostalgia that we all need!

Hustler Casino Live wants to get you hyped up for Daniel Negreanu’s debut.

The thing I don’t get about the ESPN x WSOP coverage…

is that by the time it aired, the news of who made the final table and who won was all over socials. I feel you would have needed to be living under a rock to tune back in to see how it all played out.

Yesterday

Was Joey Knish a real “hero” of Rounders?

I guess this one boils down to one’s expectations from poker (and life). What Knish did may not have been as cool or as heroic, but he made a decent living playing cards, and, for many, even today, that’s the dream.

Borgata introduces Baby Borgata trophies for their daily events.

It’s not like daily events at the Borgata are hurting for players, but adding these cool Mini Baby Borgata trophies should help bring in some extra traffic.

Negreanu on why the Poker Hall of Fame criteria should be updated.

He makes a very good point.

The video promises a front-row seat to every bet, bluff, and misstep along the way.

A dose of nostalgia; its a rough night at the tables for Phil Hellmuth.

The latest partypoker video shows the legend going up against Kirill Gerasimov, who sets a clever trap that puts Hellmuth in a truly tough spot.

Fred Leung and his team at the Asian Poker Tour are finishing up a record-breaking run in Incheon, South Korea.

Over 10 days, they hosted 106 events, handed out their iconic Lion trophies, and set new entry records, all while trying to create the most player-friendly experience around.

Leung credits their success to careful planning but admits that competition is at an all-time high. “I’ve never seen so much competition and so many countries and tours active,” he says. Despite this, the APT is thriving, with their Main Event recently becoming the largest international poker tournament ever held in Incheon.

For players, the APT promises variety and a welcoming atmosphere, whether you’re in it for the $10K High Roller or a low-stakes home game. According to Leung, the boom is already here, but keeping ahead of the pack is harder than ever.

The WSOP Online Circuit is closing out, but there’s still action to be had.

The $100,000 Multi-Flight Extravaganza kicks off August 16 with ten Day 1 flights spread over as many days, each with a $55 buy-in. The flexible schedule means players can take as many shots as they want at making it to Day 2, which wraps up on August 24.

PokerStars is dusting off its MicroMillions series.

The series runs from August 16 to 31, and boasts a $2 million prize pool with buy-ins from $1.10 to $22.

The highlight is a $22 Main Event on August 30, guaranteeing $250,000, plus regular $75k Sunday Storm and High Roller events. The series is positioned neatly between PokerStars’ WCOOP Boot Camp and the WCOOP proper, making it a warm-up for serious grinders and a bankroll builder for new players.

I’m sorry what just happened, AGAIN?

This was the third million dollar jackpot on PokerStars Spin & Gos in less than a month! WTF!
