That's because they're doing a special episode devoted to all things Venetian, including a thorough recap of the Venetian Summer Deepstack Championship Series. Find out all about the numbers, including entries, prize pools, and overlays, and some of the bigger winners, both in terms of name recognition and six-figure scores. That includes Bruno Furth, Andrew Ostapchenko, and Jim Collopy. Oh, and Tony Miles also won a title. Did you know the former WSOP Main Event runner-up was on reality TV? Indeed, he was a competitor on American Ninja Warrior, and he even had a big prop bet against Shaun Deeb.

One big three-way hand involved Michael Mizrachi, Chino Rheem, and Isaac, while another sprang out of Joe's Game. See clips of both in this episode.

    Are You Accidentally Giving Away These Poker Tells? | PokerNews Podcast #997

    In the 997th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by FanDuel Poker, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and Ben Ludlow are at Level 9 Studio in Las Vegas and joined by Nacho Cuesta of Master Poker Tells. Cuesta's greatest strength has always been the observation of patterns and details under pressure. For more than five years, he has systematically studied how decisions are physically executed in live poker. While much of modern poker study focused on solvers, ranges, and theoretical optimization, he has focused on a far less structured dimension: the physical execution of actions. In live poker, the mind decides. The body executes. And when cognitive load increases, repeatable patterns appear. That is where micro tells and macro tells are born. Not since Mike Caro, the "Mad Genius of Poker," has there been someone so devoted to live tells in poker. In this episode, he offers a trio of hands that really drives the point home. Master Poker Tells highlights "74 Unique Poker Tells Most Elite Players Still Don't Recognize." They have been validated as universal tells across six categories: *10 Check Tells *20 Betting Tells *13 Eye Tells *10 Verbal Tells *11 Body Language Tells *10 All-In Tells A new PokerNews Podcast drops four times a week in July!
