Neymar Jr. & Keating Run River 8 Times on Hustler Casino Live, Big Huni Wins Big Money at 2024 WSOP

In the 840th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway is joined by Kyle Anderson and Connor Richards at Level 9 in Las Vegas and talk about the latest from the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) and about the highly-entertaining Hustler Casino Live (HCL) 'Legends of the Felt' live-streamed cash game.

Highlights include a cooler flop between the NBA's Jimmy Butler and Brazilian footballer Neymar Jr., professional streamer Richard Tyler Blevins (AKA Ninja) slow-rolling boxer Ryan Garcia, and an insane hand involving Neymar Jr. and Alan Keating that saw more than $300K change hands after the river was run out an astounding eight times! You have to believe it to see it.

Meanwhile, the WSOP rolled on by crowning a plethora of bracelet winnings including Chris "Big Huni" Hunichen, who not only won the $100K High Roller but went on to nearly take down the $250K Super High Roller in a week most players can only dream of. Speaking of that SHR, Santhosh Suvarna defeated Ben Tollerene to take down that tournament for $5,415,152 and his second gold bracelet.

Other bracelet winners discussed include Chris Vitch, Maksim Pisarenko, Frank Funaro, and Yuri Dzivielevski, among others. Plus, get your $25K Fantasy update, gear up for the WSOP $600 PokerNews Deepstack Championship, and hear the hosts make their picks for a $20 last longer in the $50,000 Poker Players Championship!
