This week we are locked in for the fourth time with Chip Race newsman Barry Carter on the eve of his seventh book release and fifth collaboration with Dara.
The show opens with plenty of talk about Mystery Bounties as âMystery Bounty Poker Strategyâ is primed to hit the shelves. Dara and Barry give some tips on the format to whet the appetite for prospective buyers of the book.
From there, the conversation turns to a few of the big stories from a wild fortnight in the poker world. Dave Hughes victory in the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown ladies event is discussed by everyone as is the recent live edition of âHigh Stakes Pokerâ. Nik âAirballâ Arcotâs controversial antics are analysed as is his brief grudge match versus Matt Berkey which ended after Arcot cried uncle when minus $1,000,000.
The lads all weigh in on whether the recent explosion of Twitter Spaces in the poker community is a good or bad thing and whether it will last as a format. David brings up the developments in the long-standing Polk/Carrel feud and Phil Galfondâs lengthy article about the shifting of The Overton Window with regard to a culture of bullying in poker.
The episode ends with a quick plug for the Unibet-sponsored Festival Series which David will be playing in Malta next week.
