PN Podcast: Postle Back in Poker & Guest Mori Eskandani Remembers Shares Mirage Stories
In the latest PokerNews Podcast episode of 2023, Chad Holloway and Connor Richards handle things while Jesse Fullen is in Australia. They discuss Mike Postle��s sudden reappearance in the poker world after making a final table at the Million Dollar Heater at Beau Rivage in Mississippi, while also talking about the slowroll and needle that accompanied his bustout.
They try to balance that story with a heart-warming one where Johnnie ��Johnnie Vibes�� Moreno put a bartender into the MSPT Sycuan Main Event, with the recreational player going on to finish in fourth place for $40,000!
Other stories discussed include WSOP.com Player of the Years, Lon McEachern and Daniel Lowery winning WSOP Circuit gold rings, and early winners from the PokerGO Cup.
Speaking of which, PokerGO��s Mori Eskandani joins the show as this week��s guest. The Poker Hall of Famer talks 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP) preparations, who came close to challenging Jason Koon on High Stakes Duel III (HSD), plus when we can expect the next HSD match to take place. He also discussed new developments to this year��s PokerGO Tour (PGT) and shared memories from the days when the Mirage was the hot spot for poker in Vegas.
Finally, hear about the upcoming B]2023 Potomac Poker Open[/B] from Jan. 25-Feb. 6 as well as the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure (PCA) and PSPC in the Bahamas!
