The trio discusses the deadly shooting that took place across the street from the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) in front of the Bellagio Fountains, and then dives into the color-up controversy involving Tyler Brown, who shared his story with PokerNews.

Mackelprang bet the 6♥ turn. Tate raised, Rakuss check-called and Mackelprang made the call.
The 8♥ completed the board. Rakuss and Mackelprang started to raise each other, prompting Tate to fold.
