Wicked Chops Podcast: Breaking Down Tilt-Tapie, MGM-Bwin.Party, Industry Action


You'll like our latest podcast almost as much as our guest Dave Behr likes Asians. Almost.

New Wicked Chops Podcast is now up on iTunes and embedded in this post.

We’re joined by Dave “F-Train” Behr. After a quick look at the 2011 WSOP final table and Poker Hall of Fame voting, we breakdown the bevy of industry deals the past few weeks. Some highlights:

  • Why the Tilt acquisition actually makes some economic sense for Groupe Bernard Tapie.
  • Why Boyd Gaming might be involved in the MGM-Bwin.party partnership.
  • Why Fertitta Interactive went for a change in direction by acquiring Cyberarts.
F-Train always makes a good guest, and there’s a lot of information packed in under an hour. As F-Train would say, “Pop pop!”
