EXCLUSIVE: Jeffrey Pollack Parting Interview – Part I, II, III (UPDATE)


Watch Interview With Former WSOP Commissioner Jeffrey Pollack Part 1 on RawVegas.tv

We caught up with Jeffrey Pollack for what was supposed to be a final vlog but quickly turned into a 60 Minutes style interview. Turns out after four years as WSOP commish, there was a lot of ground to cover.

So we headed to the new home of the WSOP (breaking news here), the Pavilion Center in the Rio, where Pollack, who has always been good to the so-called poker “media,” was cool enough to give us his only video interview. Part I (above) covers why he decided to leave and what role (if any) new boss Mitch Garber played in that decision.

Parts II & III (coming soon) cover accomplishments, disappointments, wtf he would’ve done had both Shulman’s captured the Main Event crowns, and of course, what he’s going to do with all of this free time on his hands.

UPDATE: WITH PART II
