## Resource

In the 985th episode of the PokerNews Podcast , which is sponsored by FanDuel Poker, Chad Holloway is joined by Mike Holtz and Ben Ludlow at the 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP) , where they welcome T exas Card House (TCH) CEO Ryan Crow to the show. Crow sits down for an in-depth chat about the current state of Texas poker amid the recent raid at The Lodge and subsequent resolution. Where do things currently stand in the Lone Star State ? Perhaps no one is better suited to answer that question than Crow, who also discusses the success of the first WSOP Circuit stop at TCH , as well as a look ahead to the next one. Finally, Crow shares details on the upcoming docuseries, The Battle for Texas Poker , which poker fans are sure to love. You'll get to see a couple of clips from the documentary, which will no doubt get you excited for what's to come. A new PokerNews Podcast drops four times a week in July during the 2026 WSOP!
