PokerNews is currently looking to collaborate with the popular Twitch.tv poker channel to increase its audience size and spread its brand.
In a statement, Remko said “Every year since 2009, I’ve covered the WSOP, and this year I’ve landed the sweetest gig of all! It’s awesome to be the host of the PNPod, and I look forward to bringing you all the best and most fun summer coverage. I’ve got some big shoes to fill, but hopefully I can press the right buttons every once in a while. I especially look forward to getting some great guests on the show, and while we’re not on the air you can all count on me chasing Phil Ivey down the hallways. Well, at least I’ll try to get him on.”
Somerville who represents Team PokerStars will play an active role as a player at the 2015 WSOP and will be looking to win one of those coveted WSOP bracelets and then share his perspective and experience with his fans via the PokerNews Podcast.
