    Chapter 2 Ep. 13 Texas Hold ‘Em

    Chapter 2 Ep. 13 Texas Hold ‘Em

    This week Elle and I talk about a rise in Canadian listeners. We introduce our new sponsor... Maker's Mark. Then we recap the Patreon Game where we talked about the Beyonce song Texas Hold 'Em that was re-worked with Hank Williams Sr.'s voice thanks to AI. Here is the link to the song.  Then we wrapped up the "Table Talk" segment with a discussion about Camp One Step. That trip starts on Monday.

    This week on "Call the Floor" Elliott rules on a player that removes chips from the table to pay for their meal while in a hand.

    "HOTW" is A 8 off suit in the small blind with 3 limpers.

    I wrap up the show in "Joe's One Outer" talking about someone marking cards at the Battle of Malta. Here is a link to the article from David Lappin.

Ante Up is back!

Very glad and surprised to see the podcast revived. Like Lazarus you just can’t keep ‘em down. Looking forward to the next chapter of Ante Up!

Love the show

Too many poker podcasts are gears toward pro’s or semi pro’s. These guys are geared toward the casual player.
