MARCH 19 POKERCAST RECAP: With poker rooms returning more and more, will there be a mini boom? Will the players who never strayed reap the benefits of rusty players or even new players? We also compare crypto traders to poker players, update the WPT sale and it looks like Chris can retire after all, thanks to compounding interest on Shaun Deeb's $50. We also complete an O'Mally's Move and Chris Mahon has the Hand of the Week again with QQ.

Will there be a mini poker boom soon?

Joe Scales hosts a weekly podcast that mixes humor, commentary and strategy, with great segments such as Table Talk, Call the Floor, Hand of the Week, and Joe’s One Outer. It’s the longest running poker podcast, for the everyday player.

This week Elle and I recap the Camp One Step Charity Tournament. We also stop off to play a little poker at Play Poker Chicago. Elliott rules on whether tournament chips should be blinded out or if it's more important to get someone off the waiting list. Patrick and I break down a tournament hand with A8 suited. We recorded this one from the car so the audio isn't great. Then I end the show talking about small improvements over time.
