Ante Up Poker Magazine

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, we sit down for Table Talk with Joe Mackin of Sycuan Casino Resort, three years running as Southern California’s Best Poker Room. We talk San Diego vibes, and the upcoming Ante Up Poker Tour Stop in conjunction with the SoCal Classic. On Call the Floor, a bettor pushes chips and announces “one hundred” at the same time, but the stack comes up short. Was the floor right to lock him in at $85, or should verbal govern? Our Hand of the Week breaks down a $1/$3 spot with AQ suited, then I close with a One Outer on protecting your blinds, and why folding isn’t flinching. See you at the tables, A-Team.

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, we’ve got a full table and plenty to talk about. On Table Talk, Elle and I welcome Tia Bacon from Gila River to the show as we take a deep dive into the upcoming Ante Up Poker Tour stop at Gila River Lone Butte. We talk about what players can expect, the excitement building around the series, and why this is shaping up to be a can’t-miss event. We also spotlight the incredible work being done through Camp One Step’s charity poker efforts, and how this community continues to show up when it matters most. If you would like to sign up for Camp One Step here is the link. We also recap Sunday’s prop bets — some wins, some losses, and maybe a little humility thrown in for good measure. On Call the Floor, Elliott weighs in on a tournament situation where a player didn’t get their rebuy in on time. Was it a tough break or just part of the rules? You know Elliott will break it down from the tournament director’s perspective. In this week’s Hand of the Week, Patrick and I analyze a hand featuring AQ and dig into the decision points street by street. And I close things out with Joe’s One Outer, talking about superstition in poker — because it’s Friday the 13th, and whether you believe in lucky charms or not, the mental game is always real. It’s strategy, stories, rulings, laughs, and a little bit of luck — just the way we like it. Click here for our Linktree.
