Jungleman Wins $232k Pot Against Mariano in Epic Poker Showdown
Daniel 'Jungleman' Cates won a $232k pot against Mariano Grandoli. The pot was won with a superior side card of A♠Q♦ against A♣5♦. The game was played with $50-$100-$200 blinds and multiple straddles.
Cates was virtually tied with 'Harut' as the biggest winner by the end of the session, each taking home over $190,000 in profit. Grandoli, on the other hand, was stuck $229,000 on the day.
The action unfolded during the Hustler Casino Live broadcast, where the two high-stakes cash game regulars faced off in an intense showdown. The broadcast ran for about an hour more after that.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
