This Week In Poker: Episode 5


Fifth Episode of This Week In Poker Now Up and Archived

Guests this past Tuesday included David “The Maven” Chicotsky, Lauren Kling, a woman, 2008 WCP’s Hottest Girl in Poker Lacey Jones, and host of ESPN’s Inside Deal and reporter for OK! Magazine, Laura Lane. If you missed it, watch it above or go to the official This Week In Poker page here.

The ep was longer than it’d take Greg Raymer to call it quits at an all-you-can eat buffet, so here’s a breakdown of where the guests joined the show.

2:55 – Double RainbowTM

7:04 – Victory Poker pro The Maven joins us to talk about his epic Day In The Life video, his training center with Bodog Ari, teaching Playboy Playmates how to play poker and what he thinks it will take for poker to get some real mainstream sponsors.

14:10 – We talk about CiCi’s pizza.

33:40 – Poker hottie Lauren Kling stops by briefly during a break at the 2010 WSOP Main Event.

43:00 – FOWCP Lacey Jones joins us for what she described as her favorite interview ever.

1:08:00 – ESPN’s Laura Lane dishes on celebrities, Lebron James, strip poker with Andrew Feldman and Bernard Lee and how her dad had to read an article where we discuss her vagina.

This Week In Poker is a live, interactive show where viewers submit question via Ustream, Facebook and Twitter. This is our final broadcast at the Rio. Starting next week, we’ll be doing the show from the This Week In studios 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.

Thanks again to our sponsor, Victory Poker

A Day In the Life Of The Maven



A day in the life of JaspudUF
Regular WCP readers know we’re pretty big fans of The Maven (see this or his ominous presence here).

So we were pretty stoked to see that The Maven put out a video about a day in the life of The Maven. Because if there’s one thing everyone in poker should know, it’s how The Maven rolls.

Unfortunately we’re bordering on retarded today and can’t figure out how to embed The Maven day-in-the-life-of vid, so above is a parody made of The Maven video (which you should watch AFTER you watch The Maven video). If you want to watch the day in the life of The Maven video that chronicles a day in the life of The Maven (which you should watch before you watch the above video), then go here.

The Maven Is Very Excitable


In theory you’d think we wouldn’t like a guy like The MavenTM.

But for some reason we do. Can’t explain why we like The Maven. But we like The Maven.

And after watching the above clip of Joe Cada eliminating Antoine Saout from the 2009 WSOP Main Event, we also think it should be mandatory that The Maven now do every last single poker broadcast. Goodbye, Lon McEachern. Hello, The Maven.

The Maven.
