15-Way Chop at Wynn, Lady Kicked Out of WSOP & Hellmuth Wedding Bells
In the 839th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, host Chad Holloway is joined by Kyle Anderson and Connor Richards at Level 9 in Las Vegas and talk about the latest from the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) and about town, including the much-talked-about 15-way chop in the Wynn Summer Classic Ladies Event.
Speaking of ladies, one was kicked out of a WSOP tournament as seen in a viral clip circulated on social media, but Phil Hellmuth wasn't around to see it as he took a break to head north to Montana for a family wedding. However, he soon returned to Las Vegas and immediately made a run at bracelet No. 18.
Speaking of bracelet runs, the son of 2005 WSOP Main Event Joe Hachem nearly followed in his father's footsteps by capturing WSOP gold. While he fell one spot short, Daniel Hachem's run is still one of the most heart-warming stories of the 2024 WSOP thus far. Plus, learn about recent bracelet winners such as James Obst and Magnus Edengren, the "Studs & Duds" from the $25K Fantasy league, and remembering bracelet winner Matthew Parry, who unexpectedly passed away this week.
Finally, Chad wrote a poker history piece involving David Sklansky, who is looking to sell a pair of rare 1982 WSOP gold watches and a look ahead to next week's $600 PokerNews Deepstacks Championship bracelet event.

Exclusive: Men 'The Master' Nguyen Breaks Silence on WSOP Controversy
In the 837th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway is joined by Johnnie Vibes and PokerNews Ontario Ambassador Kyle Anderson at Level 9 in Las Vegas and talk about the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP)!
Not only do they discuss the controversial shorted-pot hand from the Gladiators of Poker involving Men Nguyen, but Chad actually chatted briefly with "The Master" about it. That led to a larger conversation about Men "The Master" Nguyen's reputation and legacy within the poker world, and in turn to a discussion on fact versus fiction.
From there, Anderson talks a bit about his ambassador duties for Ontario, and then talks about being put in the spotlight by Phil Hellmuth, which inspired Johnnie Vibes to chime in with his desire to be scolded by the "Poker Brat." Speaking of Vibes, he shared the details behind how the chip stack of Adrian Mateos went missing after a break in the $2,500 Freezeout, and then the crew dive headfirst into Nick Schulman winning the $25,000 High Roller for his fifth WSOP gold bracelet. Is he destined for the Poker Hall of Fame next year over Scott Seiver? It's a coin flip according to the panel.
The crew highlights a handful of other WSOP bracelet winners from the past few days, and the preview the Phil Ivey vs. Jason Mercier vs. Danny Wong finale in the $10,000 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw event. Finally, get an update on the $25K Fantasy league and learn who won the BetMGM Poker Championship for $613,914!

2024 WSOP: Masks & Solvers at the Table? Mystery Bounty Duds? Arieh & Deeb Weigh I
In the 835th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway is joined by poker pros Shaun Deeb and Josh Arieh, who fill in as special co-hosts at Level 9 in Las Vegas where the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) is happening now!
Hear about how Fortnite helped them form Team Lucky alongside Matt Glantz and reigning WSOP Main Event champ Daniel Weinman, Arieh's Poker Stake venture, and their thoughts on the Poker Hall of Fame, including Scott Seiver's chances of getting in after he recently won his fifth gold bracelet. They also weigh in on two hot topics from this week in poker -- whether or not phones, spurred by solver software debates, and excessive masking should be allowed at poker tables.
Speaking of gold, Malcolm Trayner captured his first WSOP bracelet in Event #5: $1,000 Mystery Millions for $1,000,000, while two other players scored million-dollar bounties. Unfortunately, their reactions were a bit subdued, much to the dismay of many in the poker community. That said, two other players had boisterous celebrations when they pulled six-figure bounties. See them all in the latest episode, as well as a winner interview from Trayner.
Finally, learn about other bracelet winners such as David Prociak and Simeon Spasov, get an update on the $25K Fantasy league, and see Jack Binion walk the halls of the Horseshoe and reminisce about 55 years of the WSOP!
