I start the show talking about the Patreon Game from last night and Mal Embarkment or Dis-embarkment syndrome. I literally left after recording the intro to pick Elle up from the airport. She joined me for "Table Talk" where we discuss the Sahara closing their poker room, and a study by BetMGM about online casino games. It looks like we may be making a trip next year to the Irish Poker Open, and we talked about what may be my new playground with Bally's building a hotel/casino connected to the new A's stadium in Vegas. ***Disclaimer*** I said I was going to root for the Yankees in the World Series, but actually I think I'm just going to root for the whole series end in a tie somehow.

Our "HOTW" is a crazy one when we flop a full house with the Big Blind special.

On this Week's "Call the Floor" Elliott talks rules on a situation where the river was put out before the last player acted. Our "HOTW" this week has Patrick and I playing pocket K's from the button.

I start the show talking about the storms the last few days, and the best readers of the magazine to date. I also put an all call out for HOTW and Call the Floor submissions. You can actually hear the rain pelting the windows as Elle and I record "Table Talk". We review "Dead Money", the new poker movie. Elle gives the history of Bourbon Heritage Month, and talks jigsaw puzzle competitions. We also learned that there is a 45 minute flight in Las Vegas equipped to help you join the Mile High Club. On the "Call the Floor" segment a situation comes up where the dealer spreads the deck into or onto the muck and Elliott talks about his ruling there, but also about dealer training. Our "HOTW" has us coming into the SB position but buying the blinds, and facing a big raise pre-flop with QJ off suit. I end the show with "Joe's One Outer" talking about patience.

Elle and I talk Patreon, Hustler Live being suspended on YouTube, and the Charity game we played in on "Table Talk". Elliott rules on a stinky player at the table in "Call the Floor".
