N(ational) P(oker) R(adio)

“Today on All Things Considered we delve deep into the mindset of a small yet radical assembly of individuals from Salinas, Kansas who advocate always slowplaying pocket aces.”

Okay, so we don’t necessarily see NPR listeners being the poker types, but its Day to Day program recently did an interesting piece on online poker, focusing on an entertainment industry couple in Laurel Canyon who pay their rent from $100 Sit-n-Go’s. By the sound of the audio, Wicked Chops is guessing they’re regulars at Party Poker.

An interesting figure from the broadcast: $187 million wagered over the past 24 hours online.
