Summary
In the 995th episode of the PokerNews Podcast , which is sponsored by FanDuel Poker, Chad Holloway , Mike Holtz , and Ben Ludlow welcome Darren Rabinowitz to Level 9 Studio in Las Vegas. Rabinowitz was fresh off winning his second gold bracelet by defeating Phil Hellmuth in heads-up play. The big story this week is that of Jared Griener , who was allegedly robbed by two masked men of $45,000 after cashing out from the WSOP. It's a wild tale that involved being hog-tied at his rental property, escaping to a neighbor's property, and two suspects captured on surveillance video. The quartet then wraps up the last bracelet winners from the 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP), including Alexander Kostritsyn and David Peters , takes a look at the Main Event final table, and the current 2026 WSOP Player of the Year standings . Finally, hear from Daniel Negreanu and Josh Arieh , who took down the 25K Fantasy League as a part of Team DNegs. A new PokerNews Podcast drops four times a week in July!
