Description

Welcome back to the GRID podcast!





Our re-launch kicks off with Hendon mob founder and PokerStars Pro Barny Boatman. Barny relates a pivotal hand in his historic victory at the 2024 European Poker Tour stop in Paris.

With 19 players remaining, Barny was put to the ultimate test by the chip-leader. He held jack-nine suited in the big blind and faced max pressure on a board of J ♦ 8♦ 3♣ 2♣ 2♠. A fold guaranteed survival. A call meant seizing the chip lead, and a fighting chance at all the glory. Boatman recalls the thoughts and intuition that led him to what he calls his “sliding door moment.”





Now that Barny Boatman has checked off Jack-Nine suited, 95 hands remain on the GRID. Use our interactive episode finder to see which hands have been clicked off, and which are waiting to be hunted down.
