This Week In Poker: Episode 4


Fourth Episode of This Week In Poker Now Up and Archived

Guests last Tuesday included 2010 WSOP Ante Up For Africa winner Phil Gordon, UFC ring announcer and Full Tilt Poker red pro Bruce Buffer, 2009 WSOP Main Event Champion Joe Cada, and former Last Woman StandingTM champs and Amazing Race contestants Tiffany Michelle and Maria Ho. If you missed it, watch it above or go to the official This Week In Poker page here.

The ep was longer than a James Cameron flick in slo-mo, so here’s a breakdown of where the guests joined the show.

2:20 – Phil Gordon talks about his Ante Up For Africa win, prop bets with his kids, Dennis Rodman’s ridiculous laydown on Celebrity Poker Showdown, the state of online poker legislation and how freakin’ good the new breed of poker players are.

30:00 – Bruce Buffer dishes on UFC 116, Brock Lesnar, trademarking his catchphrase, the convergence of poker and MMA and his new poker room at the Luxor.

47:00 – Joe Cada opens up about how hectic life’s been since winning $8.55 million last November and is put on the clock during our Poker Metaphor Signifying You Have to Act Quickly Round.

1:01:00 – Maria Ho and Tiffany Michelle make out with each other for the remainder of the show.

This Week in Poker is broadcasting live from the WSOP every Tuesday at 4:00pm PST. It’s an interactive format where viewers can ask guests questions live in the Ustream chat box or via Twitter and Facebook. Once the WSOP is over, we’ll be doing the show from the This Week Instudios in LA with their slick set up and production crew. With the set up at the Rio, the production/show format’s obviously rough right now, thanks for baring with us over the next few weeks.

Thanks again to our sponsor, Victory Poker

Joe Cada Has A New Girlfriend


We're starting to like this Cada kid...

According to pictures posted on his Facebook page, Joe Cada has moved on from his previous hot girlfriend to a new, different hot girlfriend.

And no, it’s not Jayde Nicole.

While we don’t know who this one is, we do know it’s good to be a 21 year-old millionaire. Live the good life, young Cada.

Really, Cada is setting a good example for all young guys out there. Don’t settle down. Seriously. Girls are a dime a dozen. But one night stands? They last forever.

Joe Cada Not Dating Jayde Nicole Everyone


Nothing to see here. Please move on. Nothing to see here.

Photos like the above (snapped at the PCA party a few nights ago) and this one have cause all sorts of forum chatter about WSOP champ Joe Cada potentially dating Jayde Nicole.

Like most rumors, this one is completely and utterly true not true.

First of all, Cada already has a hot girlfriend. Secondly, Cada told PokerRoad that he and Nicole are “just friends.” And C, Nicole apparently was at the PCA with Entourage star Vincent Chase (we agree with the Sports Guy that Grenier should just permanently change his name to that).

Read more about this non-story here.

In somewhat related PCA news, Dario Minieri leads after Day 2 of the $25k High Rollers event. Get full chip counts here.

Joe Cada Is Good at Uno Too


2009 WSOP Main Event champ Joe Cada is still making the media rounds. Recently he was on a local (local to him at least) Detroit radio station where he brought his hot girlfriend and played some Uno.

And he won the Uno game too.

Kid is still running good.

Joe Cada on The Late Show with David Letterman (VIDEO)


Here’s the clip of 2009 WSOP Main Event champ Joe Cada on The Late Show with David Letterman last night.

Cada managed to get in his Poker Stars plug, admit that he lost $100k in a day after he made the final table…and Letterman showed that poker still has a long way to go (perceptionally) by talking about losing a big pot and being found dead in the back of a rental car.

Editor’s Note: We expect this video to come off YouTube at some point today but hopefully by then CBS will have put up their clip.
