Best & Worst Stories from the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP)


Listen Later

In the 908th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Kyna England, and Mike Holtz are joined by 2006 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event champ Jamie Gold to wrap up the best and worst stories from the 2025 WSOP! That includes taking a look at attendance, offering up some fun facts, and honoring Leo Margets becoming the first woman since Barbara Enright 30 years ago to make the WSOP Main Event final table!

They then reexamine big stories such as the alleged chip dumping between Jesse Yaginuma and James Carroll to win an extra $1 million in the Millionaire Maker, the cancelled online bracelet event, Benny Glaser winning three bracelets, and big winners from the 2025 Wynn Summer Classic.

They also debate the pros and (many) cons of both Martin Kabrhel and Will Kassouf with Jamie Gold, the O.G. of speech play, offering his thoughts on the most dynamic duo from the 2025 WSOP. It's a take you might not expect. 

Finally, see an interview with Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi, the winner of the 2025 WSOP Main Event and most recent inductee into the Poker Hall of Fame.
