🎲♠️ Backgammon & Poker: A Long Love Affair – Part 1
What do Zdenek Zizka, the WSOP, and ancient Mesopotamia have in common? Backgammon.

From 3000 BCE tombs to 2025 WSOP bracelets, backgammon’s journey has run alongside poker more than you think. Both games demand strategy, embrace risk, and reward nerve.

🎖 Salute to Warriors – Honouring Heroes Through Poker 🇺🇸 🎖

Since 2019, the WSOP $500 Salute to Warriors event has stood out as a powerful tribute to the brave men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces. More than just a poker tournament, this annual event raises funds for military-related charities like the USO, with over $700,000 donated in six years!

Started with the vision of the late poker legend Mike Sexton (RIP), a Vietnam War veteran, the event combines passion for poker with support for those who served. 🇺🇸💙

Here’s a look at the Salute to Warriors Champions:

🏆 2019 — 🇺🇸 Susan Faber – $121,161
🏆 2021 — 🇺🇸 Eric Zhang – $102,465
🏆 2022 — 🇺🇸 James Todd – $161,256
🏆 2023 — 🇺🇸 Steven Genovese – $217,921
🏆 2024 — 🇬🇧 Ben Collins – $207,486 (First non-U.S. winner!)
🏆 2025 — 🇺🇸 Joey Couden – $187,937

♠️ Thousands of players enter, but it's the cause that truly wins.
💰 Total donations (2019–2025): Over $698,000!

WSOP has an image of a poker festival where people chase their dream of winning big or at least being glorified as a bracelet winner. But its schedule

🎰 Busted Your One Bullet? Here’s How to Deal With the Pain 💔

Every year at the WSOP, EPT, Triton & other major events, hundreds of players fire a single (very expensive) bullet... and miss. Most don’t cash. Even fewer make real money.

The sad truth? The poker world rarely shows empathy — only results matter. But that doesn’t mean your loss doesn’t matter.

👉 That’s why we asked psychologists and mental coaches for real tools to help you cope with the gut-punch of a missed shot. Here’s what we learned:

🖤 1. Give Yourself Permission to Mourn
Don’t minimize it. Don’t pretend it didn’t hurt. You’re allowed to feel the loss. Grieve it. Process it. Let it pass through you — not get stuck inside you.

💡 2. Try Reframing the Narrative
You lost. Fine. But that doesn’t mean you’re broken. Learn to spot your thoughts, challenge them, and replace them with something that keeps your fire burning.

📊 3. Let the Math Speak
Only 68–75% even make Day 2 of the WSOP Main. That’s just survival — not profit. The odds are brutal. But numbers can bring clarity. It wasn’t “just you.”

🤝 If you’re struggling after busting, know this: You’re not alone. Real players feel real things. Let’s normalize that.

🔁 Share this with someone who just busted. They might need to hear it.

Every year hundreds of poker players come to the WSOP, EPT, WPT, Triton, NAPT Main and other major events to fire their single very expensive bullet and ride

🔥 3 Reasons You Have to Watch the Mike Matusow Documentary 🎞️

Now streaming on YouTube, this raw and unpredictable film dives deep into the life of one of poker's most notorious legends. 🎰💥

Here’s why poker fans — and even non-poker fans — are glued to it:

🎭 1. A True Poker Icon:
Matusow was one of the loudest voices of the poker boom. Love him or hate him, you couldn’t ignore him. This film shows how the Mouth continues to fight in a GTO world.

💔 2. Brutal Honesty:
Drug use. Jail time. Family conflict. Addiction. Paralysis. The film lays it all out — and doesn’t ask for your pity. It’s not polished. It’s real.

♠️ 3. It’s About Poker, But It’s More Than That:
Behind the table talk and Main Event bust-outs is a deeper story about surviving failure and trying to find meaning after fame.

🎥 Plus, it features unfiltered behind-the-scenes WSOP footage, emotional moments with Phil Hellmuth, and a one-of-a-kind style that’s as chaotic as Matusow himself.

💬 Have you seen it yet? What did you think of Mike's story? Let us know ⬇️

The documentary about Mike Matusow was released on Amazon Prime in late 2024 and is now available on YouTube. We’ve watched it and highly recommend spending

𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐭𝐳 𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐘 𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐖𝐒𝐎𝐏 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐭! 🏆

After years of crushing high rollers and founding PokerGO, Katz took down Event #83: $2,500 Freezeout NLH at the 2025 WSOP for $449,245!

He battled through a 1,299-player field, dodged danger with 14 big blinds on Day 4, and outlasted Brazil’s Breno Drumond in a rail-war finale that had chants echoing through the Horseshoe. 🇺🇸 vs 🇧🇷, but this time—🇺🇸 took it down!

🔥 From "wasn't supposed to play it" to gold bracelet glory, Katz proved it’s never too late to check in, shuffle up, and ship it!



Cary Katz is a prominent name in poker, both on and off the felt. He is a highly successful individual, as evidenced by the hugely popular PokerGo Streaming

🎭 From Face Mask to Final Table Hero! 🎭

Mike Gorodinsky came back from the dead (OK, from 6 BBs and the flu) to win the $10k Eight-Game Championship in true movie fashion.

He started the final day with crumbs, down 10-to-1 in chips, and looking like he needed soup and sleep, not a bracelet.

But Gordo turned into a mixed-game terminator:
♠️ Chipped up in Razz
♦️ Bluffed like a wizard in NLH
♥️ Outdrew in PLO
♣️ Took Wasserson's soul in Limit

Final hand? Ace-Queen held like a champ. 😤
Final prize? $422,421 and WSOP bracelet number FIVE.

Moral of the story: Never count out a man with DayQuil, experience, and a dream. 💪

Event #82: $10,000 Eight-Game Mixed Championship required an extra day to complete. Only two were left after Day 3, which saw 13 players return to the felt at

💥 Why Are So Many Poker Players Broke? 💥

It's not just bad beats. Most players lose because they treat poker like a dream, not a job.

❌ No bankroll management
❌ No study habits
❌ No backup plan

Variance kills. Ego blinds. The game is tougher than ever — only the pros who treat it like a business survive.

On the outside, poker is portrayed as a game with big wins, gold bracelets, and a glamorous lifestyle. But that’s merely a glimpse of reality.
