Poker final table advice from Tiffany Michelle.

Who consequently ended up in 2nd at the TCPS Aruba $300 Ladies event.

Today

Poker legends Barny Boatman and Joe Beevers took a seat to reflect on how the game has changed since PartyPoker first hit the scene.

According to them, the days of relying on physical tells and gut feelings are long gone. In their words, the rise of online play and solver-trained pros has made the game almost unrecognizable.

'You used to win because you could read a guy’s hands. Now you win because you can read a computer’s output.’

They also question just how much the old skills still matter. The conversation is as much a history lesson as it is a commentary on the state of modern poker, and it’s clear that while the landscape has changed, the competition is as fierce as ever.

Get your dose of bad beats here. 🫣

Close, but no ninth bracelet for Kid Poker.

Daniel Negreanu was in striking distance of a record-tying ninth WSOP bracelet at the WSOP Online $25,000 High Roller Championship.

According to PokerNews, Season 1 of Hellmuth’s Home Game was less about the host and more about the guest list.

Jennifer Tilly topped the charts, banking $189,150 over 816 hands with a VPIP of 56.3 percent. Dan “Jungleman” Cates played even more aggressively, entering 62 percent of pots and finishing up $116,225.

What option would you go for?

A guaranteed $100k, no sweat, or play one of the most experienced players out there heads-up for a chance to win $3,000,000. But, if you lose, you have to go to jail for a full year. Would you risk it?

Daniel Negreanu joined the PokerNews Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation with Chad Holloway and Mike Holtz.

888poker’s Ian Simpson’s 2026 was looking a bit drab—until Manchester came calling.

Simpson, representing 888poker, showed up at the UK Poker League festival and left with not just one, but two titles, and a total of £54,000 in prize money.

He started by taking down the High Roller event, a smaller field but a good confidence boost. That win bagged him £16,620 and a Main Event seat.

He wasn’t done there: Simpson then dominated the 345-strong Main Event, pocketing another £38,000.

Turns out, sitting with a fan in Montreal can be more cutthroat than the actual tournament.

Because, an overreaction it definitely was.
