Giorni 1
The start time of the PLO Championship has been slightly delayed.
In the sixth episode of The Chad & Jesse Poker Show, Chad Holloway and Jesse Fullen are joined by GGPoker Ambassador Jason Koon, who took some time before jumping into the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP) $250,000 Super High Roller.
Koon talks about expecting his second child, and as fate would have it, the day after recording his wife went into labor and he had to pull out of the aforementioned tournament. In addition to sharing what it's like being a family man, Koon discusses integrity in poker, his personal goals, and a never-before-shared prop bet he has with Bill Perkins.
Koon, who currently sits fifth on the all-time poker money list according to The Hendon Mob with nearly $48 million, also discusses his love of poker history, shares a Doyle Brunson story, and just opens up about poker and life. Don't miss your chance to hear from one of the best.
Its another new day at the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP) and with that, a new event is preparing to get underway.
Four-card aficionados are starting to get ready as Event 50: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship kicks off at 3 p.m. local time inside Horseshoe and Paris, Las Vegas. The tournament is an apt four-day affair, with the winner being crowned on Saturday, June 24.
Sean Troha is the defending champion, having gone the distance last year. He defeated Shiva Dudani in heads-up play to claim his first WSOP gold bracelet and the $1,246,770 first prize.
The 2022 edition of the PLO Championship was the biggest in WSOP history and attracted a record attendance of 683 unique entries.
Troha has already tasted PLO victory this summer in Event #34: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha (pictured), where he took home the top prize of $298,192.
Can the player from North Olmstead, Ohio make it a hat-trick of PLO bracelets in just a year?
