Behind the Curtain: The Russian Bots Taking Over Online Poker
It was a “glimpse behind the curtain”. That’s what Bloomberg Senior Writer Kit Chellel told PokerNews about his latest article published late last week.

It also offered bots to poker sites to artificially inflate their liquidity.
Unreal Bad Beat in WSOP Online Main Event Potentially Costs Player Millions
Ask any poker player about bad beats and they will likely tell you they have taken the worst of them imaginable. But the beat taken by Isaac Baron during the 2024 WSOP Online International Main Event may actually take the cake. The hand in question took place at the final table of the $5,000 buy-in event, which drew 6,146 entries over 17 flights to leave just over $4 million up top for the champion.
Game Set and Match: James Obst Triumphs in WPT Australia Championship
After busting the 2018 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event in 46th place when Michael Dyer cracked his pocket aces with pocket tens, James Obst began questioning whether he wanted to remain a professional poker player. In July of 2018, Obst revealed he was leaving poker and turning his attention to professional tennis. Obst played at the 2019 WSOP in Las Vegas but then wasn’t seen at the poker tables until he returned to “Sin City” for the 2023 WSOP.
Fourth Title of the Year for Tonka But WCOOP League Victory Looks Out of Reach
The titles keep coming for Parker “tonkaaaa” Talbot in the 2024 World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) after the PokerStars Ambassador picked up his fourth of the series last night. His victory in Event 85-M secured him $6,392 and the eighth WCOOP title of his career, drawing him level with Shaun “shaundeeb” Deeb and Rui “RuiNF” Ferreira in the all-time standings. However, it still wasn’t enough for his WCOOP League team to put a dent in Team peace&loove, who narrowly extended their lead over Team tonkaaaa at the top of the counts.
Monster Heads-Up Comeback Sees Dietrich Wins Online Pokers Biggest Prize
After 17 flights and 6,146 entries, the 2024 WSOP Online International Main Event has crowned its champion.

The star-studded final table took place on September 24 with Evgenii Akimov leading the way with 86 big blinds, followed by Rui Ferreira (67 big blinds) and Dietrich in third (57 big blinds).
Evansville Poker Player & Sports Legend Clint Keown Passes Away in Automobile Accident

High Stakes Player Tanks for 11 Minutes During Livestream; Was it Excessive?
Hustler Casino Live returned to YouTube Monday night following a one-week suspension for the first night of High Stakes Week. The stream will likely be remembered for some big pots and one player going into the tank in a hand for about half the five-hour session. That comment was hyperbolic and a bit excessive, perhaps even more so than the 11 minutes and 20 seconds it took Linglin Zeng to make her decision in a $180,000 pot with pocket jacks.
Volodymyr Kokoulin Helped By a Miracle to Win WSOPE Event #2: €550 Pot-Limit Omaha

The XL Autumn Series has exploded into action at 888poker, with six of 29 scheduled events crowning their worthy champions.

DoorDash Founder Delivers an Incredible Play on High Stakes Poker
High Stakes Poker returned to PokerGO Monday night following a two-week hiatus due to the Poker Masters coverage, and Episode 7 of Season 13 was worth the wait. Stanley Tang was the star of the newest episode. He pushed around some accomplished poker players such as Andrew Robl and Jennifer Tilly, and hit two lucky river cards in the same hand against Humboldt Mike. There were four other players in the $500/$1,000 no-limit hold’em cash game, including Nikhil “Nik Airball” Arcot, Justin Gavri, Sameh Elamawy, and Brandon Steven.
Renan Bruschi Completes Weekend WCOOP Double for Sixth Title
What’s better than winning a World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) title over the weekend? How about claiming two? That’s exactly what Renan Bruschi did, following up his Saturday victory with another first-place finish just last night. The Brazilian sensation took down WCOOP 65-H: $1,050 NLHE Deep Stack, earning his sixth overall WCOOP title. However, despite Bruschi’s impressive double, it hasn’t shifted the standings in the WCOOP league, where Team peace&loove continue to fend off all challengers.
Seb Crane Prevents History Being Made in the GUKPT Luton Main Event
The Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT) first ran in January 2007; Praz Bansi emerged victoriously in the GUKPT Bolton Main Event. In the 17 years since every GUKPT Main Event champion has been male, but that almost changed this weekend in Luton. However, almost is the operative word. The £1,250 buy-in GUKPT Luton Main Event saw 284 entrants create a £299,910 prize pool that the top 33 finishers shared. Katie Swift, a member of Team Grosvenor, was one of those entrants.
Ari Engel Extends Record with 18th WSOP Circuit Ring
Ari Engel broke the World Series of Poker Circuit (WSOPC) ring record on Saturday. His own record. The Canadian born poker legend took down an $888 buy-in No-Limit Hold’em Crazy 8’s tournament on WSOP Online Pennsylvania, a Circuit event. He beat out a field of 61 entrants on his second bullet to take home $16,732, defeating “D.Lafferty” heads-up for the ring. And it was a big ring for Engel as it gave him a bit of separation from the close competition.

Team tonkaaaa Closes WCOOP League Gap After Talbots SEVENTH WCOOP Title
The WCOOP League race is heating up as we enter the final week of WCOOP action on PokerStars. It looks to be heading down to the wire with Team peace&loove and Team tonkaaaa trading titles on Saturday night, including a title for Team tonkaaaa captain Parker “tonkaaaa” Talbot — the seventh WCOOP title of his career, and third so far this year. However, Team peace&loove saw “FAL1st” score their third WCOOP title of the year, and the sixth of their career, to ensure their team remained top of the standings.
Gaëlle Baumann Reflects on Womens Poker Progress Ahead of WPO Bratislava
The landscape of women’s poker has evolved significantly over the years, marked by the inspiring performances of female players.

Nik Airball Reveals How He Made His Money; Rival Matt Berkey Isnt Buying It
Where did Nikhil “Nik Airball” Arcot get his high-stakes poker bankroll? That’s been a topic of discussion among the poker community for a couple years, and the answer hasn’t been clear.

Playing the Opponent Not the Cards: Alexandra Prado on Chess Streaming and Strategy

Jim Collopy wasn’t among the 10 players who cashed in the 2024 Poker Masters Presented by PokerStars NAPT series finale.
