American poker pro Shaun Deeb, 32, entered a lot of events at this summer's World Series of Poker and managed to win 2 bracelets, 15 cashes worth about $2.4 million (1 cash was worth $1.4 million - the biggest of his career) and earn lots of Player of The Year (POY) points!
Scheduled on November 1 to 6, the Malta Poker Festival will be held at the Portomaso Casino, Saint Julian's, the heart of Malta's vibrant nightlife.

This is not a slot for the faint-hearted. The game takes players deep within a ghostly, dark landscape. Hellish features await you - but so do a myriad of ghoulish creatures probably best left undisturbed.

This week, Chris Moneymaker was featured on ESPN's 30 for 30 podcast, mainly discussing about his epic 2003 WSOP Main Event win. The audio documentary-series also revealed what went on at the sports network's production at that time, which was the first time ever TV viewers got to watch a WSOP tournament from beginning until the end.
Earlier this month, HBO and The Ringer's Bill Simmons Podcast is joined by Matt Damon to talk about his journey through Hollywood, and one of them is about the poker movie ‘Rounders' released in 1998.
The movie has just celebrated its 20th anniversary this year, yet it still remains as the most iconic (and close-to-real-life) poker movie ever. Of course, the ones who would most likely contest this statement are the creators of ‘Molly's Game'.
Fans have witnessed once again incredible action at the Triton Hold’em short deck cash game in Jeju, South Korea. This time, it’s a 4-way All-in battle between Qiang Wang, Rui Cao, Elton Tsang, and Paul Phua.
Doyle Brunson shall be the main feature of Poker After Dark's "Godfather Week" and he will be playing two special high-stakes mixed game sessions right inside Bobby's Room at the Bellagio in October 23 and 24.
Episode 5 of the 2018 Triton Poker SHR Series in Jeju has now been released, and while we don't see Tom Dwan in this one, one round had produced one of the most extraordinary hands fans will never see too often - for one thing, the stakes were incredibly huge at $1,248,300 for the entire pot after the players were done betting, and the other is because the cards battling are Aces vs Kings vs Queens, a showdown that could only appear approximately once in every 25,000 hands!
The Boyzone lead singer said they were in a poker game together when the Titanic star ran short in 2013.
Ronan Keating told an Australian radio in the morning of October 12 that Leonardo DiCaprio owes him "a couple of hundred dollars" at a poker game in 2013 when the A-lister ran short.
It seems like Tom Dwan is having the worst luck ever at the Triton Poker Super High Roller cash game in Jeju, South Korea.

Bobby Baldwin, who became the 1978 WSOP Main Event champion, is going to leave his post as one of the executives for MGM Resorts International sometime "later this year." The company he has represented and worked so long for announced in a rather suspiciously short press release news. This left many to wonder whether the parting ways is from a mutual agreement or if the Oklahoman-born poker legend has been pushed out by force.

Triton Poker has officially posted the first episode of their short deck poker cash game series, entitled Triton Poker Super High Roller Series 2018. Poker fans will definitely be delighted to watch this star-studded table battling it out with a 36-card deck.
Borgata definitely did not take it too kindly when Phil Ivey tried to delay and hold on to the money he won from them via the edge sorting technique. As he tried to appeal to overturn the decision that he must pay back the $10.1 million (but apparently fell on deaf ears), the casino has amped up their legal game to perhaps give Ivey a very harsh lesson.
