Hi! I'm Keith Becker, PokerNewsAmbassador and Pennsylvania native, here with a PA poker update for June 2025. It's an exciting time in America for the game we all know and love, and I'm excited to be bringing you state highlights every month.
What are the big issues and stories on everyone's minds? Let’s get into it.
It's gonna be a quick one this week!
We've got the opposite of a perfect storm ... a perfect drizzle? Perfect nap weather? I don't know, but it's because right now, all eyes are on the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP), which just kicked off in Las Vegas. PokerNewsis THE HUB to visit for everything WSOP this year, as they are the official live reporting partner for the series. And let me tell you, there is some awesome new coverage this year, including a revamped MyPlayer experience where you can follow specific players and get prioritized chip counts and updates for them in series MTTs.
If you're watching this and are gonna be heading to the WSOP, I'll be out there from June 29th to July 12th. Shoot me a DM on socials and let me know if you will be too.
The biggest story this month? No contest: Mike Lavin, PA poker super reg and certified volume beast, just went nuclear.
The Aria BetMGM Poker Championship kicks off June 30th, and PA grinders have been satelliting in all month. I’ve already spotted some familiar Pennsylvania usernames in the lobby—respect to those putting in the work.
This video might be going live while the Championship’s underway, but if you're heading out to Vegas for it, I’ll be out there too from July 1st through the 13th. Let’s connect.
Big moves from BetRivers Poker this month. The site had a successful multi-state poker launch, combining pools and adding Michigan, West Virginia, and Delaware to their existing offering in Pennsylvania.
They've got a great welcome bonus of a 100% deposit match up to $1,000, plus promos for every play style, including:
Add in their Rakeback Revolution rewards program and tournament guarantees that keep trending up—BetRivers is stepping into the spotlight.
For those still holding out hope— no, we haven’t seen any movement from PokerStars PA joining the multi-state pool yet. No official updates, and timelines remain a mystery. Meanwhile, PokerStars made an eyebrow-raising move by streaming WSOP coverage through some kind of new partnership with PokerGO. If you're confused about who’s covering what this year, you’re not alone.
On the online front, PokerStars USA has shifted focus to promoting the NAPT.
Pennsylvania players have been battling it out across the shared WSOP online pool — competing with folks from NJ, MI, and NV. Some events are culminating in live final tables, bridging online and live play. And the action’s not over yet — 12 more bracelet events are scheduled through July. So if you’re hunting hardware, now’s the time.
