In the world of poker and entertainment, there's always something exciting happening. Here's a roundup of some recent noteworthy events that have caught our attention.
Poker Action
Ossi Ketola, a well-known poker player, has had a series of high-stakes matches. Ketola played against Alex Foxen, winning the first $2 million match but unfortunately losing the rematch, which had a $5 million buy-in. In another exciting encounter, Ketola and Foxen played a memorable hand where both players were dealt trips, but the match didn't end there.
Victor Malinovsky has been making waves in the poker scene. He recently won two consecutive heads-up matches against Ketola, with the stakes escalating from $2 million to $5 million. In one hand, the players played for $5.7 million; Ketola called a 3-bet, a continuation bet, and bet on the turn and river, but Malinovsky bluffed him on the river.
Roman Emelianov, another prominent player, made headlines for folding queens preflop in a recent GG Millions $10k tournament, leaving a lasting impression on Beriuzy. There was also an incident where Emelianov accidentally didn't act on his queens due to being distracted, as clarified by Dmitry Shakho in his telegram channel.

In the realm of entertainment, the film "My Sunshine" has been receiving rave reviews. On RottenTomatoes, the film has a 96% critic approval rating and an 82% audience score. Scott Seiver was among those impressed by the movie.
Liv Boeree and Igor Kurganov, two renowned figures in the poker world, tied the knot at Burning Man in 2017. They officially announced their relationship in the same year. Boeree and Kurganov have also expressed dissatisfaction with modern poker streams, finding them less appealing compared to High Stakes Poker.
