"These particular poker games were happening in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.. I had gotten multiple invites as well as a lot of friends who don't really have access to these private games.. It just seemed quite suspicious to me" Matt Berkey #PMSLive

"At the high stakes level these poker games are private.. You always hear rumors but this is the first actualy confirmation in my 22 years of playing poker that I've seen" ~ Matt Berkey #PMSLive

Tremendous job to Matt Berkey during his interview on the Pat McAfee. Way to represent our community! And thank you to Pat for having the back of the poker industry sharing that this situation is an outlier & not a true representation of our space.

"These methods that they used are very complicated.. You need a middleman who's able to get these decks into the game and orchestrate the entire thing" ~ Matt Berkey #PMSLive

"These games are happening coast to coast.. They're not illegal to run or play in.. It's illegal to take a rake in these poker games" Matt Berkey #PMSLive

Love this activation from BorgataPoker BetMGM Poker MGM National Harbor Poker. Lions of Atlantic was a MTT where players could play from online, AC or DC. They combined in AC. Sets the trend of connecting multiple properties & players for bigger prize pools & brand momentum. Darren Elias

Wild how WWE can drop a 15-sec mystery clip & stir up massive engagement on a Sun morning. It's not Gunther, Jericho or Bautista imo. I'm calling a Tony D’Angelo main roster debut. Poker could learn a lot from pro wrestling. SiriusXM Busted Open Bully Ray Dave LaGreca

The WSOP - World Series of Poker Paradise schedule is stacked. That Super Main will be massive & 1K+ online qualifiers is no joke. I’m not big on operator overlap in December, but the competition drives insane player value. Makes me wonder if we’d see the same w/o it. Speedy recovery Jeff Platt

Lost a deal this week I thought I’d won for all the right reasons. It’s part of the game but this one stung more than most. Trying to remember that in poker, biz & life not every loss is a bad hand. Some are just lessons disguised as disappointment. Onto the next hand. We rise!

Wish I could make it to PokerStars NAPT this week. It always lands right between my anniversary & wife’s birthday, so it’s a tough one to swing! I’ve been to an EPT stop before though & can imagine how sharp Resorts World Poker Room must look as a major tournament festival venue.

Heading out on a long overdue guys golf trip with friends. Can’t wait to compete, laugh & just be dads connecting outside the grind. Funny how golf & poker overlap patience, discipline, decision making & managing tilt 😆. Two games that shape me as much as they challenge me!

I've been traveling with my family & catching up on the recent poker news. Damn. I have a love & passion for this game like so many who dedicate our careers to it. So I say this from a purposeful place: We as a poker community are often the poker industry's own worst enemy 💭

While brand patches have been a part of the game for over two decades, the landscape has evolved for poker's most marketable faces. Read the full article linked in the replies!

It's January 🥶 in Atlantic City & still my favorite stop of the year BorgataPoker for the winter BetMGM Poker championship to see friends, handle business & play some poker!

I couldn't be happier for Jeff Platt & the WSOP - World Series of Poker. It's the right move at the right time. Jeff's work in our space has been second to none for many top tier organizations. Now he gets to impact our industry & arguably its most iconic brand as a producer, broadcaster & leader 🚀.

I appreciate the sentiment but I promise ya would have in your own way at some point. Thanks for your trust you jabroni beating, pie eating, trail-blazin', eyebrow raisin', all around, smack it down broadcasting & producing champ!

An honor to be part of a team that understands who I am, and how I have tried to represent poker authentically. I am nowhere near perfect with a lot of mistakes along the way, but I will always try to be the best example possible, while having fun and creating an environment
