In the 854th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by WPT Global, Chad Holloway, Kyna England and Mike Holtz are back at Level 9 Studio in Las Vegas to talk about Ludwig's recent admission that he regrets working with an unregulated online poker site, which in turn caused fallout involving other influencers, Scott Ball and Endgame Talent, and Phil Nagy.
The crew also recaps the recently completed Super High Roller Bowl, which Seth Davies won, and winners from the Super High Roller Series including Adrian Mateos, Maksim Vashrensenski, and Joni Jouhkimainen. Speaking of winners, hear about those who found success at the WSOP Circuit Graton stop and the Pennsylvania State Poker Championship.
Also, see footage of a player in Texas laying down top set of aces on a dry board in a hand that had the poker community talking. Finally, learn about EPT Barcelona, which just got underway and is celebrating its 20th anniversary! Those stories and more in the latest episode of the PokerNews Podcast.
A new PokerNews Podcast will drop weekly every Friday at 8a PT / 11a ET / 4p UK time. Remember to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you do not miss an episode!
Around 1,000,000 was already in the middle as Alejandro Lococo, Andries Swart, and Romain Dolcerocca went to the river on a board of 8♦10♥9♠7♥6♥.
Lococo then moved all in from under the gun and Swart quickly folded. Dolcerocca, though, tanked for more than a minute. He eventually also folded to give the pot to Lococo.
"First I lose a 2,000,000-chip pot with queens. Now I have to shove with kings," Lococo said as he flipped over K♣K♦ and took in the massive pot.

Vincent Mansour: K♠Q♣
Andreas Berggren: 10♣10♠
Mansour found no help on the 4♥4♠3♠3♥A♦ board as Berggren's pair of tens stayed in front to send Mansour to the rail.

Gabriel Cunha opened to 45,000 on the button and was called by Kevin Hasler in the small blind. Danut Chisu then shoved for approximately 400,000 from the big blind and Cunha called. Hasler got out of the way and hands were revealed.
Danut Chisu: A♠7♣
Gabriel Cunha: A♣Q♥
Chisu found himself in rough shape with his dominated ace, and the A♦4♥10♦Q♣6♦ runout improved Cunha to two pair to eliminate Chisu from the tournament.

Following the successful return of the North American Poker Tour (NAPT) in Las Vegas last year, PokerStars announced in May that the NAPT will return to Resorts World, Las Vegas, this November for another ten-day poker extravaganza.
The series is highlighted by the NAPT Las Vegas Main Event, which has a $5,300 buy-in. Last year's champion, Sami Bechahed, topped the 1,095-entry field and took home a substantial $268,945.
For those who missed out last year or looking to have a second bite of the cherry, you'll be pleased to know that you can secure your seat in the Main Event for a fraction of the buy-in.
Ibrahim Kiriakus opened the button to 45,000 and Shenghe Yang came along from the big blind.
On the J♠9♣7♠ flop, Yang lead jammed for 160,000 and Kiriakus snapped it off.
Shenghe Yang: 4♠3♠
Ibrahim Kiriakus: J♣9♠
Kiriakus had flopped top two pair but Yang had outs to improve to a flush. Unfortunately for him, the 3♥10♦ runout did not contain the spade that he needed as he hit the rail.

Steven Jones moved all in for 250,000 in the hijack and Ahmad Niazi called in the big blind.
Steven Jones: K♣10♣
Ahmad Niazi: Q♣J♣
"Why do we have to do this right now? Not like this," Jones said as he awaited the flop, which came J♦10♠7♠. Both players hit a pair, but Niazi was ahead with his jacks as the rest of the board ran out 8♥3♠ to send Jones to the rail.
"That's a shit hand. Your favorite hand sucks," Jones joked with Niazi on his way to the exit.
