November Nine: Up to Speed

We found Dan, which means that Dan and Pauly officially conducted their first episode inside the Penn & Teller Theatre.

N9 - Episode 4: Up to Speed -- After a late night, Dan arrived a little later than he wanted. Pauly catches him up to speed with what he missed including Soi Nguyen's bustout, Filippo Candio's double up with Aces, and Joe Cheong taking a pot off of John Dolan. They also discuss the situation for ticketless fans who want to watch the November Nine.

November Nine: Meeting KevMath

Dan and Pauly return to the Rio on the eve of the November Nine. They headed over to the Hooker Bar to meet Kevin Mathers -- for the first time ever.

N9 - Episode 2: Meeting KevMath -- Dan and Pauly finally met the elusive Kevin Mathers at the Rio (at the Hooker Bar of all places). They confirm that he is not a robot and share their initial thoughts on meeting the legend. Pauly remarked that he hasn't been this excited to meet someone in poker since Annette_15. They're also a bit worried that KevMath won't survive the "AlCantHang Experience" at the Hooker Bar, and might show up wicked hungover to his first day of the November Nine.

November Nine: Power Breakfast - Italian Cock and Eggs

Dan and Pauly return to action for the November Nine after almost a four-month hiatus when the summer session of the WSOP ended in July. On the morning before the November Nine kicks off, the two gathered off the Strip for a pre-game breakfast meeting.

N9 - Episode 1: Power Breakfast - Italian Cock and Eggs -- Dan and Pauly recorded an episode at their favorite breakfast place after a power meeting to prep for the November Nine. They discussed a bit of pre-game strategy and what's to come for upcoming coverage of their third November Nine and sixth WSOP Main Event final table. As per usual, Dan veered off topic and delved into a tangent about cocks again (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Tao of Pokerati - Lost Episode: Party Animals

We have another special installment of Lost Episodes of the Tao of Pokerati podcast. Here's something that we recorded one late night this summer, but never uploaded... until now.

The Lost Episodes from the 2010 WSOP

Episode 2: Party Animals - Your intrepid poker podcasters turn on the recorder at the PokerListings/Lara Miller ranch-house keg-party. Dan's so late and Pauly's so faded that they have almost little to share about a gathering of poker personalities at what has become one of the parties of the summer. This year's festivities came complete with two fights, a guitar-strumming Euro, and surely someone was having sex somewhere. It's been a long haul and Dan's dog picks up a scent in Pauly's pocket.

Tao of Pokerati - Lost Episode: Dan Buys Lost Vegas

Welcome back to a special installment of Tao of Pokerati podcast. We're digging deep into the vaults and found a few episodes that we never posted this summer during the 2010 WSOP. So, we figured that we'd share a few of these.

The Lost Episodes from the 2010 WSOP

Episode 1: Dan Buys Lost Vegas - Dan stops by the press box to buy a copy of Lost Vegas: The Redneck Riviera, Existentialist Conversations with Strippers, and the World Series of Poker. Dan wonders if any incriminating stories were censored and which ones made the cut. He also asks Pauly to sign a copy, but the reluctant author gets anxious about signing it while on air. In the meantime, the two reminisce about the "olden days" when they first got into poker media five years earlier.
