Ante Up Poker Magazine

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, we’re looking ahead to the Electric City Poker Series at Rivers Schenectady, talking about some of the unique events on the schedule, Ante Up plans for the stop, and even getting into the great dealer debate: slide or pitch?

Then, Elliott joins me for a Call the Floor involving a player tipping a cocktail waitress, a dealer who moves the action along a little too quickly, and a community card that hits the felt before everyone has acted. What’s the proper ruling?

In the Hand of the Week, KQ suited gets involved in a big multiway pot that turns into one of those uncomfortable spots where the math may be telling you one thing while the action is screaming something else.

And in Joe’s One Outer, sometimes the best people to have in your corner aren’t the ones who always tell you that you played great—they’re the ones willing to tell you when you played it badly.

The Alaska poker cruise is in the books! Elle and I look back at the poker, the ports, and some of the lessons we learned about how we want to do future Ante Up cruises.

Then Call the Floor gets a first. Elliott and I record the segment together in person, with the ocean behind us, as we tackle who is actually responsible for showing their cards when the river checks through. If you want to see that view, and the rest of this week’s episode, the video version will be released on YouTube in a few days.

The Hand of the Week is a little different this time. It’s more of a situation involving a home tournament, a married couple, a questionable poker look and an all-in that apparently wasn’t supposed to be an all-in.

Finally, Joe’s One Outer looks at the part of a long poker trip we rarely plan for, the recovery day after you finally get home.

We’re coming to you from Alaska! Ship wifi couldn’t handle the upload and it is hard to come by in Alaska, but we found it and we have another episode for you this week. We talk about life aboard the Ante Up Poker Cruise, catching up with the A-Team, a little San Francisco fun, and some poker news we missed while at sea. Then, Call the Floor tackles a showdown that goes wrong and gets even messier when the next hand starts. In Hand of the Week, it’s my least favorite hand, and we’ll see if we can finally pull out a win with it. Finally, Joe’s One Outer is about knowing when to take a chance, bet on yourself, and push the chips all-in.

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, Joe and Elle break down the WSOP Main Event finale, celebrate the new World Champion, talk about the class shown heads-up, and get ready to set sail for Alaska! Here is the AI article that was referenced. Then, Call the Floor tackles a tournament situation you almost have to hear to believe, and HOTW features a big draw, an aggressive opponent, and a decision that turns into an even tougher one on the river. Finally, Joe’s One Outer looks at the criticism that follows every World Champion and why poker was never about playing perfectly—it’s about being ready when your opportunity comes.

Elle is on location in Jacksonville for the Ladies International Poker Series at bestbet, and we get her first impressions of the room, the familiar faces she’s already run into, and the rest of the weekend slate. Back home, we recap a wild night of Omaha Hi/Lo in the Patreon game, where Mortis finally broke through for his first win of the season. USC collected the ChicagoJoe bounty, and Ben landed on the points bubble,  which means a certain side bet is still very much alive.

Then we look ahead to the WSOP Main Event final table starting Monday with 22-year-old chip leader Lucas Jumalon leading the final nine, and why Advanced Poker Training’s million-hand simulation is picking Greg Mueller. Plus, Doug Polk steps back from The Lodge, and we run through this year’s Hall of Fame finalists.

Call the Floor: A $1/$2 game at the Golden Nugget where one player silently slides out $15 while the next player simultaneously announces $20. The dealer freezes, the table starts offering opinions, and nobody calls the floor.

Hand of the Week: $2/$5, everyone $800 deep, and our listener has pocket nines. We break down the hand not the player. Did we play it better?

Joe’s One Outer: Nobody gets buried under bad options, you get buried under good ones. Game selection is a life skill, why saying yes to eleven worthy things leaves you with eleven mediocre ones. Pick your table, then play it with all you’ve got.
