On the latest PokerNews Podcast episode, Chad Holloway and Jesse Fullen continue The Chad & Jesse Poker Show straight from the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP).

They are joined by renowned Japanese vlogger Masato Yokosawa, AKA ��World Wide Yokosawa.�� While players in the United States might think folks like Brad Owen and Andrew Neeme has the biggest vlog followings in the world, that distinction actually belongs to Masato, who regularly clears 600K views on each of his vlogs!

The Japanese vlogging sensation opens up about his start in poker, what inspired him to start a vlog, and how he��s managed to turn it into a smashing success with the help of a creative team. He also talks about his desire to win a WSOP gold bracelet, how Daniel Negreanu and Phil Hellmuth are perceived in his home country, and what the future looks like for poker in Japan.

Chad and Jesse then do a new "Calling the Clock" segment in which they offer quick two-minute dialogues for topics on ��The Board.��

Mike Linster limped in the cutoff, as did William Kopp on the button. John Goyette checked his big blind.

The flop came J?5?5? and action checked to Kopp who bet 125,000. Goyette folded, but perennial nemesis Linster called.

On the 9? turn, Linster check-called a bet of 500,000 from Kopp, and another sizeable pot between the duo was being.

The river was the 8? and after a final check from Linster, Kopp slid out a bet of 1,200,000. Linster flicked in a call and was disappointed by what he saw.

Kopp showed K?Q?9?9? for a turned full house. Linster showed his A?A?Q?Q? for a losing ace-high flush to send a big pot back to Kopp.
