That is where a special $400 buy-in, $250K GTD PokerNews Cup was held over the weekend. Not only did Chad play, but he also interviewed several of the players there, including one fresh off making a deep run in the 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event and another who won the first-ever major reentry tournament back in 2010. Chad then sat down with Thunder Valley Director of Poker Operations Ben Erwin to talk about the stop, followed by a chat with PokerNews Cup champ Peter Thao , who put on an impressive performance on his way to victory. Chad then headed with the PokerNews and RGPS crews to the California State Fair in Sacramento, where they had a little off-the-felt fun. That included betting on pig races , where Chad made it all the way to the finals and had his hopes riding on a little piggie named \"Ace.\" A new PokerNews Podcast drops four times a week in July!
