Coming to you this week from where it all began for the show, David and Dara are in Dublin for Irish Poker Open week. They welcome poker player and woman who launched a thousand podcast episodes Robbi Jade Lew! They are also joined by Irish European Deepstacks champion Tommy Gejeziunas. For strategy, they welcome back former Irish open champion and former Chip Race newsman Ian Simpson. Baard Dahl stops by to talk about online poker security. Plus, Barry Carter takes his usual funny look at this week’s news.

This week, we are locked in and hanging out with Grosvenor Ambassador Katie Swift.

Over the course of this wide ranging conversation, the trio discuss Robbi Jade Lew’s lie detector text, Garrett Adelstein’s LA Times articles and Thomas Kremser’s controversial return to tournament directing at the Battle of Malta.

Katie talks about her role as host at the upcoming Malta Poker Festival while David and Dara weigh in on the different needs of the recreational poker player to those of the pro.

The upcoming Unibet IPO Dublin is previewed and there is also some chat about the new Unibet Poker schedule which boasts the lowest rake in the industry, more PKOs and bigger guarantees.

This week, we welcome to the show poker player, YouTuber, poker room owner and WPT ambassador Andrew Neeme. We are also joined by author, podcaster and live tells expert Zach Elwood. For strategy, we do a fun crossover with fellow GPI Global poker award winner ‘The Grid’ as we look at a hand of Jen Shahade’s from the EPT Barcelona Mystery Bounty. The executive director of poker operations at the Wynn Ryan Beauregard stops by to discuss the record breaking $15 million WPT event in December. Plus, Barry Carter is at the news desk!

This week, we are on location in Malta paying tribute to our great friend Jan Suchanek who was booked to appear on this episode but sadly passed away a fortnight ago.

Dara and David venture to various spots, some closer to the sea than others, as they discuss the media coverage since Robbi Lew made that questionable Jack-High call versus Garrett Adelstein. They also brag shamelessly about the hugely successful Chip Race Mystery Bounty at the Unibet Open. Dara is on the Doke Diet, also known as an accidental diet to which you fully commit afterwards.

In the final segment, the lads reminisce about their friend Jan, sharing personal memories and the tributes of some of Jan’s sports-betting work buddies, poker friends and poker daughter Paulina Loeliger.
