Two stories with the flavour of India as the Poker Sports League partners with Discovery Channel Asia-Pacific’s DSports to broadcast the Season 2 finals, and Match Indian Poker League founder, Raj Kundra, is brought in for questioning as part of an investigation into a Bitcoin Ponzi scheme.
Sofia Lovgren told me that Goa is the nuts, which is interesting considering Goan Nuts won Season 2 of India’s Poker Sports League (PSL) in May.
The Swedish star knows that Goa is the nuts because she was handpicked by the Team Manager of Punjabi Bluffers as a wildcard entry and competed in the finals on the Deltin Casino floating in the seas surrounding Goan seashells.
“I was positively surprised by poker in India,” Lovgren tells me over a purple looking cocktail. “There was a great atmosphere; wonderful energy; everyone knew everyone; it was like a home game.”
