Life Outside Poker is a new podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 15th episode, Connor speaks with statistician Nate Silver about his new book On the Edge: The Art of Risking Everything, election forecasting, founding and leaving FiveThirtyEight, his bad beats at feature tables, and co-hosting the Risky Business podcast with Maria Konnikova.
Silver also discusses the upcoming US presidential election, sports analytics, Limit Hold'em, his Silver Bulletin newsletter and why no one should be a nit in life.
This interview was filmed on June 8.
Players in the field have been sent on a 70-minute dinner break.
Late registration will close at the end of the break.
Action will resume at approximately 8 p.m. local time.
Narcis-Gabriel Nedelcu opened 2,500 under the gun, and Mustapha Amaouche three-bet 8,000 from a couple of spots to his left. Michail Kavouras tossed his last 6,000 into the middle as he stood up, and Nedelcu made the call.
When the Q♥4♠2♣ flop hit the felt, Nedelcu check-called a bet of 5,000 from Amaouche.
The 9♣ turn, and K♣ river were checked down, and all three players revealed their hands.
Nedelcu rolled 3♣3♦, while Amaouche tabled A♥K♦ for a pair of kings to win the side, and Kavouras showed Q♦9♦ to triple-up with two pair.

The 2023 WSOP Main Event runner-up Steven Jones opened from under the gun and was called by Jeremy Sfalli in the big blind.
Sfalli check-called a 2,100 bet on the 10♣7♠3♥ flop.
Sfalli then check-called another bet on the 2♠ turn, this time for 7,500.
The 3♦ peeled off on the river. Sfalli checked for a third time and Jones decided to empty the clip as he jammed for 31,000 effective as the slightly covering stack. Sfalli was pained by the decision for his tournament life but he opted to let it go.
Jones cracked a smile as he looked up at the Pokernews team and flashed K♣Q♥ for a bluff.
He then hugged his opponent in consolation as he explained, "I wouldn't have shown except that he [media] was here."

Sebestyen Csoti opened to 2,500 from under the gun and was called by Adam Kubas in early position, Alessandro Adinolfo in the cutoff, and Leonardo Burdino in the big blind for a four-way pot.
Action checked to Adinolfo on the 9♣A♠2♦ flop and he bet 4,500. Burdino and Csoti quickly folded and Kubas called.
Both players checked on the 9♥ turn and Kubas took the initiative with a 10,000 bet after the 3♠ completed the board.
Adinolfo tanked for some time, but eventually thought better of it and let his hand go to send the pot Kubas' direction.

Martin Pahl stuck his last 6,200 into the middle from early position. Agustín Castresana moved all in himself for roughly 15,000 from the seat next to Pahl. After the rest of the table folded, the cards were revealed.
Martin Pahl: Q♥7♥
Agustín Castresana: 8♥8♠
The flop of 7♣A♥3♥ gave Pahl a pair and flush draw and a lot of outs to stay alive. However, the board ran out 5♦9♣ and Castresana's pair of eights sent Pahl out of the tournament.

Denis Grimm was seen all in for 6,900 on the button, while Lars-Magne Johansen and Josep De Ramon put 69,000 each across the line from the blinds.
The dealer spread a flop of 8♠4♦3♣ and Johansen quickly fired 2,000 across the line, exactly how much De Ramon had left. De Ramon called and all three hands were tabled.
Denis Grimm: A♠9♣
Josep De Ramon: A♥J♠
Lars-Magne Johansen: 7♣7♠
Johansen was ahead with his pocket sevens. The 8♦ turn and 3♦ river meant both of his opponents were headed to the exit.
