Episode 220 – 27/08/2021 – WCOOP 2021 champs 'pvigar' and 'Proudflop' + Howard Swains

James and Joe are fully immersed in #WCOOP2021, streaming three nights a week on Twitch and YouTube and following the headlines on the PokerStars Blog. The boys are joined by their WCOOP Correspondent Howard Swains to pore over the latest facts and figures and celebrate the multiple successes of Patrick Leonard and the country of Brazil! There are also interviews with two WCOOP champions: Pedro 'pvigar' Garagnani and Jonathan 'Proudflop' Proudfoot. Plus, "shout outs” to the #PITE Discord community (join the conversation: psta.rs/Discord) and a nail-biting, 'Jarhead'-themed edition of 'Superfan vs Stapes', with Luke Maskell from the UK hoping to win a WCOOP ticket.

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.
