   Poker Stories: Scott Seiver WSOP POY

   Scott Seiver called his shot in 2024, making it known that he intended to win World Series of Poker Player of the Year honors. After 17 cashes, nearly $1.5 million in earnings, and three bracelets, he accomplished his goal and will have a banner hanging at the Horseshoe/Paris for future generations of poker players to see. With seven bracelets overall, Seiver now ranks seventh all time and is tied with such greats as Billy Baxter, John Hennigan, and Daniel Negreanu. Despite his focus on high-stakes cash games, the 39-year-old Ivy League grad has still managed to rack up more than $27 million in tournament earnings, including numerous high roller wins and a World Poker Tour title. Highlights from this interview include a first-time full summer grind, abandoning his chips, playing regs vs. unknowns, being recognized by his peers, good enough at Omaha, low-stakes razz over high-stakes hold'em, $2,000 movie tickets, a prestigious deuce, last of the old school, the hall of fame, 10-2 with Doyle Brunson, and dad's D'Brickashaw disbelief.

   Poker Stories: TDA Summit Recap With Matt Savage

   Matt Savage was Tournament Director for the World Series of Poker during the poker boom, and has since spent more than a decade as the Executive Tour Director for the World Poker Tour. But the perennial Poker Hall of Fame nominee is also a co-founder of the Tournament Director's Association, which helped to standardize poker tournament rules. Every two years, poker room representatives from around the world come to Las Vegas for the TDA Summit, where they discuss the biggest issues facing the game and any needed rules changes or amendments. This year's summit was held at the PokerGO studio at Aria, and featured a number of topics including the big blind ante, masks and wearable tech, random card theory, and just how late tournament registration should be open.  You can watch the full 13-hour replay (https://www.youtube.com/live/sg9EY207myA?si=PfzJaLNiVJNUFoFr) of this year's summit on YouTube.
