273. Irish Poker Open 2023 champion David Docherty

The guys are back from Dublin, where they worked on the live stream and played at the tables at the Irish Poker Open. Joe entered a couple of small side events, while James fired three bullets (courtesy of PokerStars) in the €1k Main Event, earning nothing more than some time at the #PokerStarsTV table and a trilogy of brutal bust-out stories, one of which gets recounted and analysed. But the main focus of the podcast is the man who WON the #IrishOpen Main Event for €365,000: Scottish pro David Docherty. He talks about his early years in poker, his recent near-miss at #EPTLondon, and his experience playing in, and taking down Europe's longest running No Limit Hold'em tournament. Plus, in keeping with the theme of the show, Irish #PITE listener Trish Howard answers questions about her home country in 'Superfan vs Stapes', with a #SundayMillion ticket on the line.

Om Podcasten

Every week, the hosts of PokerStars TV (James Hartigan and Joe Stapleton) bring you a behind-the-scenes look at what it's like being two regular folks on the international poker circuit. Told from the perspective of a cranky British dad (Hartigan) and an undateable American bachelor (Stapes), Poker in the Ears is a mostly uncensored take on the world of professional poker. The hosts also regularly call in favours, in the form of guest spots from their big-shot celebrity poker-playing friends. And they routinely hold on-air competitions, providing chances for listeners to join them on tour.
