In the 841st episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway and Kyna England are joined by bracelet winner and philanthropist Gershon Distenfeld at Level 9 in Las Vegas to talk about latest from the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) including which old-school poker legend, who hadn't played a serious hand of poker in nine long years, made a surprise appearance in the $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO) event. You'll have to either listen or watch to learn who it was!
The crew then discusses what actors they'd like to see portray Doyle Brunson in a potential movie, playing in the WSOP $600 PokerNews Deepstack Championship, and take a look ahead to the upcoming Charity Series of Poker (CSOP) event on July 3 with actress Shannon Elizabeth.
Distenfeld then talks about what it was like to win a WSOP gold bracelet and donate the $204K prize to charity, his professional life in the financial world, and what motivates him in life and poker. You'll also hear about Dario Sammartino, who finished runner-up in the 2019 WSOP Main Event, finally getting his first bracelet.
