The Poker Beat: Hour of Power

So we\’re really kinda having some fun over at The Poker Beat. Turns out the shop a bunch of us media types talk amongst ourselves is kinda interesting to at least a few people … and dare I say even more captivating than an hour-long episode of ClubWPT? What\’s really making the show work, I think, is that all of us panelists actually wanna listen to the segments we\’re not on … it\’s turning out to be a great way to find out reliable info about important stuff we may not cover closely, which all turns out to really be just a 57-minute set-up for Joe Stapleton jokes (which really are kinda funny).

On this week\’s episode, BJ reports from the LAPC about field sizes and Scotty Nguyen\’s repeat performance in the $10k HORSE Event; I chime in to discuss WPT Season 8 and try to fill BJ with job insecurity; Parvis and Gary Wise get all Durrr Challengy vs. Patrik Antonius; and podcast newbie Chops joins the fray to break down the Erick Lindgren vs. Dane Cook comedy feud and Mike Matusow\’s fiddna to go ballistic on Russ Hamilton.

NOTE: The five guilty in South Carolina just got fines, not jail time.
