In the 838th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway is joined by Kyna England and Connor Richards at Level 9 in Las Vegas and talk about latest from the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP)!
That includes Phil Ivey winning his 11th bracelet and first in a decade, UFC announcer Bruce Buffer making a deep run in the $50,000 High Roller, and Scott Seiver claiming a second bracelet this summer, which not only gave him a nice lead in the race for Player of the Year (POY), but also extended the streak of a multiple WSOP bracelet winner to 25 years!
Also, hear about Sergio Aido's victory in the aforementioned $50K High Roller, Antonio Galiana executing a five-bet river bluff some are already saying is the hand of the year and an update on the $25K Fantasy poker league. Finally, the second-ever PokerNews Cup on Global Poker is underway (it runs June 17-July 7) and the WSOP PokerNews Deepstacks Championship is right around the corner (June 25-28).
A new PokerNews Podcast will drop twice weekly during the 2024 WSOP every Tuesday and Friday at 8a PT / 11a ET / 4p UK time. Make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you do not miss an episode!

Global Poker is one of the only options for US and Canada poker players to play social poker online. It is a social casino, which means the game is closely linked to social media and therefore it has a much more ‘social’ feel to it than many other casino sites. You can either play for fun, or play for your chance to redeem cash prizes or more. Either way, you can always play for free.
There is no download needed to play or specific software, you can just play directly on the desktop website which is another great advantage.
So far, so good, but what about Global Poker games? Here’s a quick list of some game types you can expect to see:
Games to Play at Global Poker
- No-Limit Texas Hold’em
- Pot-Limit Omaha
- PLO8
- Multi-Table Tournaments (MTTs)
- Sit ‘n’ Go
- Jackpot Sit ‘n’ Go
