A new poker show has landed. This time from Ignition Casino.

The series called Y’all In, will air on the Ignition Casino YouTube channel.

The show brings together professional poker players, comedians, and celebrity guests for an unconventional road trip across Texas.

Traveling through Austin, San Antonio, Houston, Dallas, Luck, and Fort Worth, the cast experiences Texas through a series of local challenges and fast-paced Texas Hold’em games. Each stop introduces new surroundings, experiences, and opportunities for the personalities to compete both on and off the felt.

Honestly, it sounds really good.

Today

Episode 3 of Tough Call by PokerStars on FanDuel is here!

What are you willing to risk?

As a risk adverse person, I can safely say nothing 🫣 but maybe that’s what makes this podcast the perfect listen.

Who’s your dream table mate out of these four? I actually don’t know much about Mustapha Kant, so I think if I had to choose it’d be Negreanu or Tilly — so many good stories they can tell.

Will Kassouf and Martin Kabrhel in the same room and the same time.

Really thought this would be a loud and annoying pairing, but actually it’s quite enjoyable to watch.

Yesterday

Build a big stack early in local tournaments.

This strategy actually works very well in lower buy-in local tourneys. Sure, there is some variance that comes with it, as it is poker after all, but in general, it can help you accumulate a bunch of chips early on and get you all set for the middle stages.

HCL has an exciting lineup set for this Friday.

Fridays are always fun at Hustler Casino Live, but the upcoming stream should be the most exciting one in a while, featuring the likes of Mikki, Luda Chris, and the champ Ryan Garcia.

It must have been an extreme situation for this player to become the only one to actually get a note by Arieh. Congrats are in order.

Calling from the small blind remains a problem.

It is often said that you should play your small blind as a raise or a fold. However, sometimes your odds are too good, and you want to see that flop. Yet, as Fitzgerald points out, the core issue remains, as you have to play the entire hand out of position, and good players won’t make it easy for you.

We’ll get the WPT Venetian Fall Championship final table today.

It will be an action-packed day, with the field down to 29 players and the likes of Phil Hellmuth and Sam Soverel still in the hunt for the title and the $446k first-place prize.
