Rampage Poker Scammed… Again?!? Patrik Antonius Wins $5.1M | PokerNews Podcast #865
In the 865th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by the free-to-play WSOP App, Chad Holloway, Kyna England, and Mike Holtz are at Level 9 Studio to talk about Ethan "Rampage" Yau admittedly getting scammed again! Find out what happened and what Rampage says he's going to do about it.
They also wrap up the 2024 PokerStars North American Poker Tour (NAPT) including Jason Koon & Caitlin Comeskey becoming PokerStars US Ambassadors, Jeff Madsen making a deep run in the Main Event before suffering a bad beat, and Nick Marchington emerging victorious after a single cooler hand during heads-up play.
Other highlights include Sam Soverel winning the NAPT High Roller, Jared Bleznick defeating Patrik Antonius in High Stakes Duel 5 (a rematch is in store), Antonius turning right around and winning the Triton Poker Invitational for $5.1 million after besting Vladimir "Gambledore" Korzinin, and Bryn Kenney becoming the first player in history to cross $70 million in tournament earnings. Oh, and Kristen Foxen, Jeanne David & Starla Brodie are this year's Women in Poker Hall of Fame inductees.
Finally, the crew draws a contest winner for a seat into the $5M Freeroll at WPT World Championship, Kyna and Mike go heads-up in trivia to compete for a seat of their own, and fans of the PokerNews Podcast get yet another opportunity to win another seat! Find out how in the latest episode.
