Gabe Kaplan back as High Stakes Poker host
We recap some stories you may have missed including durrrr on the future of the game and Trump hits out at the people who bet on him.
Gabe and AJ are back
If you were not excited about the return of High Stakes Poker next week, this might finally push you over the edge.
Gape Kaplan and AJ Benza will be returning to commentary duty for the new series which starts on April 16 on PokerGO.
The set might be a bit different and some of the players are new, but with the commentary duo added this trailer below really does feel like the old show:
Tom Dwan on the future of poker
Two people expected on that very show, Brandon Adams and Tom Dwan, caught up to talk on Adams's podcast this week.
It is rare to get any kind of interview at all from Tom Dwan, but just like Phil Ivey, it looks like we might be seeing more of him next year.
Dwan discussed the future for the online game in the US, which he thinks is heading for a renaissance in 2021.
Trump blames the bookies
As most of the poker world had a bet on the US Election, we could not ignore this one.
After seemingly blaming everyone else for his loss last month, Donald Trump has now hit out at the sports betting community who had him as a favourite to win.
You only need to take a brief glance at poker Twitter to see that there are still a lot of people who think he has a chance. Several markets are still open and a lot of players are willing to bet on The Donald despite everything.
At 10:00 P.M. on Election Evening, we were at 97% win with the so-called “bookies”.

Another KidPoker classic
Finally, it may have cost him $800,000 to make this video but there was another classic 'Tuff Fish' style offering from Daniel Negreanu this week following a massive losing session to Doug Polk. You have to give it to him, he is pretty funny on a downswing.
