If you’re in Las Vegas or visiting, Spinetti’s is always worth a stop.

Now toss in that they’ve added a WSOP display and it’s a must!

📺 | In the latest PokerNews Podcast, I laughed so hard at the 15:03 mark when Phil Hellmuth says, “Chad, you played with us and you actually won money today,” and then it cuts to him losing a hand and saying, “Son of a bitch. F***!”

A look at my latest #pokerthrift find, which was actually at Half Price Books. Rare I come across something I’ve never seen before.

Never heard of this fella but even magicians got in on that Poker Boom craze!

🥳 | Really excited to announce that next week, we're adding a biweekly show to the PokerNews podcast family!

Kyna England & I will co-host the new MSPT Podcast Presented By PokerNews!

Think LFG Podcast that Jamie Kerstetter & I did years ago, but to cover all things MSPT!

Should be a lot of fun!

Most people only see Phil Hellmuth on TV, but off it he’s one of the most sincere and giving people.

On a recent break, he made sure to connect with fellow Poker Hall of Famer & 1986 Main Event champ Berry Johnston.

He also stayed behind and took pictures with every single fan that asked.

Some goodies I found this summer during my annual trip to Spinnetti’s.

Not quite #pokerthrift but close enough! Gotta fire up my old VCR to play the those old WSOP VHS tapes!

🎂🥳🎉🎁 | Celebrated Jeff Madsen’s 40th birthday last night before WSOP madness starts! He’s now Poker Hall of Fame eligible.

PokerNews Podcast crew out in force as Mike & Kyna were in attendance.

Some PG pics from the shindig. Jeff’s house was pretty cool, loved the Rounders Mike McDermott art.

As you know I’m a big comic book guy, and today at a local con I got to meet Mark Stegbauer, who worked on Nova, one of my favorite series from the 90s. I even have a Nova tattoo.

Super nice and had no idea he’s from the same neck of the woods as me in Wisconsin!

Free Comic Book Day only comes once a year (the first Saturday of May). If you have kids, it’s a fun, free thing and a great way to introduce them to comic books.

Check out your local comic book store (there are several in Madison, WI) and get some free stuff today!

🏈 I had a great time last night in Green Bay for Round 1 of the NFL Draft. Went with my dad & two of my oldest friends. Represented the Miami Dolphins and I’m happy with their pick.

It was a fun experience and quite the spectacle. The Fins have 9 more picks and need to hit! #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2025

One week ago was poker’s Black Friday, which took place on April 15, 2011. I was still early in my career with @pokernewsdotcom.bsky.social.

I reflected back on that day 14 years later in the latest PokerNews Podcast 👇

My latest #pokerthrift store find. I had to google “skittle.” This is from 1972, the year Amarillo Slim won the WSOP.

It was $12.50 and I bought it. Why? Because I’d like to get it to Las Vegas this summer and see about getting Kyna & Mike to square off for the PokerNews Podcast!

I recently finished Atomic Habits by James Clear. Easily one of the most enlightening and impactful books I’ve ever read. If you’re looking to make changes in your life, whatever they may be, I can’t help but think that reading this book will help. Highly recommended.

Good news! I made Day 2 and the money in the MSPT Riverside $1,110 Main Event. I’m on the shorter side of things but anything can happen, and lucky to be there as late I got all in preflop with AQ against AK and flopped a queen. Back at 11am tomorrow (Sunday) with 67 players returning to action.

Earlier this week, Sam Laskowitz topped a field of 126 entries to win the WSOP Circuit Horseshoe Las Vegas Event 10: $2,200 High Roller for $63,866 & his first gold ring.

It came just five weeks after the birth of his son! Love to see it!

What high stakes!

And Superboy wanted to cheat to win.

One of the earliest gambling/card game comic book covers I’ve come across.
