Doug Polk's Poker Poll Sparks Controversy Over Missing Names

Doug Polk organized a poll to determine the greatest poker player in history, starting in February with a list of 100 candidates selected with the help of readers. The top 20 finalists were announced, but none of the Russian-speaking community representatives made it to the final.

Doug Polk, Mike Brady, and Kane Calas discussed the top 20 players in a 3.5-hour podcast, highlighting the absence of Trueteller as a significant oversight. Trueteller is known for his exceptional skills in various poker games, including deep stack, short stack, heads-up, full ring, online, and live play.

The WSOP 2022 schedule includes 88 tournaments, with notable events like the Million Dollar Bounty and the High Roller Bounty. The UK Gambling Commission fined 888 Holdings £9.4 million for failing to protect vulnerable players. Phil Galfond sold Run It Once to Rush Street Interactive, aiming to improve the software and integrate it into their platform.
