Winamax, a prominent poker platform, faced significant backlash and lost its three-year contract with the football club Bordeaux. The contract was terminated due to a series of offensive tweets posted by Winamax's social media team. The tweets, which included derogatory comments about Bordeaux's performance, led to a public outcry and the termination of the partnership.

In Texas, Doug Polk, a well-known poker player, bought a stake in The Lodge, the largest poker club in the state. This move has sparked renewed interest in the Texas poker scene.
