Super High Roller Cash Game 5-Bet Jam for $1,700,000 Ends in Disaster

In the 936th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and Ben Ludlow are all in Las Vegas at Level 9 Studio to talk about a pair of big hands from the Super High Roller Cash Game on PokerGO. One saw Sameh Elamawy lay down the second nuts to Justin Gavri, and the other was Andrew Robl five-bet bluffing smack into the pocket aces of Eric Wasserson, which led to a discussion on Robl and his chances of the Poker Hall of Fame.

From there, the crew heads out to the desert for some fun with Las Vegas ATV Tours, Mike 'Timex' McDonald winning a national Chess Championship, and Jean-Robert Bellande taking down the Onyx High Roller for $1.5 Million. Finally, hear about how 23-year-old Harvey Castro claimed the WPT Player of the Year and why the 'Jungleman' boxing match result against Elf was overturned.
