Ante Up Poker Magazine

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, Joe and Elle pull up a chair with poker media veteran Eric Morris for an extended Table Talk that goes way beyond the usual headlines. Eric shares stories from the golden era of poker media, Bluff Magazine, how his partnership with Mike Leah came together, and Ante Up/Bluffers satellite path to the Alaska Cruise this August.

In Call the Floor, Elliott tackles a messy double-board bomb pot situation Is “Pot” even a legal declaration in no-limit hold’em?

For HOTW, Patrick gets dragged out of his hold’em comfort zone and into a wild Omaha Hi-Lo hand. Nut low draws, top pair, scoop potential, quartering fears, and a river card that completely changes the outcome.

Then Joe closes the show with a One Outer inspired by the darts scene from Ted Lasso and the quote “Be curious, not judgmental.” If you haven’t seen the clip or don’t remember here’s a link to it.

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, we’ve got a packed show that hits the heart and the hard decisions.

Elle and I kick things of on Table Talk by diving into the WSOP rule controversy. Then we shift gears to some good news with all charges against The Lodge were dropped, and highlight the newest issue of Ante Up Magazine. We also lean into the “Bet on Better” movement, spotlighting incredible charity efforts like the Baller Dream event at Circa Resort & Casino and the upcoming Gaming for Green tournament.

In Call the Floor, Elliott tackles a wild limit Omaha situation involving a supposed “all-in” declaration that sparks debate over whether it’s a call, or a raise. It’s a great look at how intent, action, and rules collide at the table.

For Hand of the Week, we break down a tricky spot with pocket jacks, facing aggression, and navigating a scary turn card, and ultimately making a big river decision.

I wrap things up with Joe’s One Outer, where I talk about the sunk-cost fallacy. Why the chips you’ve already put in don’t matter, and how letting go at the right time can save your stack (and your mindset)

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, Dustin King joins Table Talk with a Rivers recap, and a look ahead to the September Ante Up Poker Tour stop. We highlight poker doing good with Ante Up for Autism and a $105K Camp One Step fundraiser.

In Call the Floor, Elliott breaks down a tricky all-in showdown ruling, and in HOTW, we debate whether a three-barrel bluff went too far.

Plus, a Patreon Badugi recap, leaderboard shakeups, cruise satellites, and a One Outer that hits home about turning life’s bad beats into your next step forward.

Elle and I kick things off on Table Talk by diving into poker couples, how relationships handle the swings, and what it’s like sharing the felt with your significant other. Then we recap the latest Patreon game, where the action didn’t disappoint and a few familiar names found their way back into the spotlight.

On Call the Floor, Elliott breaks down a wild home game situation that had just about everything go wrong. If you’ve ever wondered how messy things can get when the rules aren’t clear (or followed), this one’s for you.

Patrick joins me for Hand of the Week, where we break down a tricky spot featuring QJ suited, and discuss the decisions, the dynamics, and what could have been done differently.

And I wrap things up with Joe’s One Outer about not letting one player control your emotions, because sometimes the biggest edge in poker (and life) is keeping your cool when someone else is trying to take it from you.

As always, it’s another winning experience for the A-Team.

Elle is back around the table this week for Table Talk, and we’ve got plenty to dive into. We highlight some exciting Bet on Better opportunities, celebrate Stephen Jones continuing his Ante Up Run Good, and take a look at what’s happening at Rivers Casino in Schenectady.

In Call the Floor, Elliott tackles a tricky situation where a listener’s hand was ruled dead after being dealt too many cards. Was the ruling correct? Patrick and I jump into a HOTW that starts off looking like a dream scenario… until it doesn’t.

To wrap things up, I bring you this week’s One Outer, where I talk about how poker prepares us for life’s curveballs, and what to do when things don’t go according to plan.

As always, every hand is an opportunity, every player is a friend… and every episode is a winning experience.
