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.
Poker in the Ears is a mostly uncensored take on the world of poker, with special guests, and chances for you to join the hosts on tour.
The Poker in the Ears Freeroll League has ended on November 19. Player ‘rshrenk’ grabbed a Platinum Pass by knocking out 38 opponents throughout the League. Final standings can be found here.
Player ‘ST1.Torero’ was the lucky winner of the other Platinum Pass, awarded via the ‘Second Chance All-in Shootout’ which took place on November 25.

Alan Keating, Jeffe Boats, Big Game on Tour Uncut, Blood Game, Superfan Daniel Posey
James and Joe are in an actual studio, as they prepare for 'Big Game on Tour Uncut’.

The enigmatic Alan Keating - one of the stars of both seasons - will be making a guest appearance on the stream and joins the guys on the podcast to discuss what ‘Big Game’ fans can expect to see this weekend. He also reveals how his rivalry with Lex Veldhuis develops in the next series of TV shows. Plus, Alan reacts to a hand that Joe played on PokerGo in ‘Hand of the Century of the Day’. Then, it’s the return of the Poker in the Ears Book Club, as James and Joe delve into the poker-themed spy thriller ‘Blood Game’ and talk to the novel’s author Jeffe Boats. Daniel Posey from the USA has also read the book, because it’s the topic of ‘Superfan vs Stapes’ this week.
