In the 951st episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway is at the 2026 World Series of Poker Europe (WSOPE) in Prague where he is joined by special guest cohost Nick “Nicky P” Palma, who is fresh off a big online Sunday where he took down two major tournaments. Plus, he’s debuted a new vlog at the WSOPE, talks about his online bracelet win from last fall, and shares his candid thoughts on Shaun Deeb and Maurice Hawkins.
If you’re not familiar with Nicky P, here’s your chance to get a genuine look at the poker pro from the Bronx.
Plus, the duo recap the bracelet winners thus far, including Corel Theuma and Anca Eggenberger, talk about Shaun Deeb’s two runner-up finishes after losing to quads in both, and the current 2026 WSOP Player of the Year standings. The man on top might not be who you expect.
Plus, Etay made a final table, the Main Event set a record, and Nicky P played a viral hand on stream after flopping a set of jacks. See the hand and hear from the man himself as to what he was thinking and why he ultimately decided to do what he did.
