New Poker Show 'The Foldyono vip slots delight' Has Comedians Competing for Money (and Underwear)
Share on Twitter Share on Facebook 2 min read
A new poker show called The Foldpits comedians against each other all competing to win some money ... and a pair of underwear.
Action in the $1/$1 no-limit hold'em cash game takes place at The Lodge Card Club near Austin, Texas, where the show's creator Nadav Itzkowitz finds his players for the games.
Itzkowitz, a YouTuber and producer, spoke with PokerNewsto share some details about the show, and why he chose to enter the poker space.
Bringing Humor to Poker
The Foldhas already released three episodes of Season 1, a season that will wrap next Friday. Two episodes will air this coming week, and the last one will feature poker pro Doug Polk, co-owner of the host venue.
Itzkowitz has been in the comedy space the past nine years and often plays poker online. Naturally, as he explained, The Foldis the perfect fit, and it gives local comedians an opportunity to showcase their comedic skills.
The new show isn't just a content farm for comedians. Itzkowitz strives to create a home game atmosphere that poker fans will enjoy.
“The more home games that I got into, the more I realized it’s just a fun hang," Itzkowitz said. “The game that we’re putting together is a game that you can play at home. It’s relatable.”
The Foldhas already brought out more than 20 comedians through the first season. Some of the players have experience on the felt, while others are just learning how to play poker.
Austin is a prime location for such a show given that, as Iskowitz said, “it feels like a lot of comedians from LA just gravitated" to Texas' capital city, which just so happens to be the fastest growing major city in the U.S.
Itzkowitz isn't just a random producer who saw some financial potential in the poker space. He's been playing cards since high school and is hoping to improve his live poker chops, which he admits aren't that great for one unavoidable reason.
"I have a terrible poker face," he explained.
Itzkowitz has been attempting to fix his poker face while competing in the $100-$300 buy-in cash games. But if a player busts him, they win a seven-day supply of underwear from Sheath, one of the show's sponsors.
Speaking of which, Itzkowitz is busy lining up sponsors for Season 2, which he anticipates will air beginning in about a month or two. Those interested in sponsorship inquiries can email [email protected].
Itzkowitz said he's received nothing but positive response to the first season of The Fold, and his goal is to use his show to get people excited about poker (and comedy).
Episode 4 goes live at 11 a.m. CST on Friday.

- The remaining cards arrange themselves into a draw pile facing down in the middle, and the top card faces up to start the discard pile. At the conclusion of each player's turn, they discard one card and draw from the draw or discard pile in turn-sharing. The draw pile runs out & no more moves can be made, or the game continues until a player successfully forms sets, runs with all of their cards, and exits. Strategic thinking is a key component of successful 777 Rummy play, as players analyze their starting hand and plan out sets and runs. 25-05-31
- To succeed in 777 Rummy, you need to possess perseverance and patience. Players must carefully evaluate their hand, strategically form melds, and adjust their strategy in response to their opponents' moves in order to win. Players may need to play multiple rounds before they can form the sets and runs combinations needed to win the game. Playing until they have a strong enough hand to go out requires patience as players wait for the right cards to finish their melds and persistence in drawing & discarding. 25-05-31
- The classic card game of rummy has a variation called 777 Rummy. It uses a standard 52-card deck and can hold two to six players. Being the first player to remove every card by making sets and runs is the main objective. Sets are made up of three or four cards with the same rank, and runs are groups of three or more cards in the same suit that occur consecutively. Seven cards are dealt to each player at the start of the game. 25-05-31

- It might be a good idea for a player to knock and try to end the game before their opponents have a chance to catch up if they have several completed melds in their hand & only need one or two more cards to go out. Nevertheless, it could be preferable to keep drawing and discarding until a player has a stronger hand if they still have a lot of unmatched cards in their hand & are far from making any valid melds. It takes careful evaluation of one's own hand & consideration of opponents' progress in forming melds to determine when to knock. 25-05-31

- They win the round if each of their melds is successful. But if any of their melds turn out to be invalid, they have to pick up all of their cards once more and play again. A player's hand strength and the likelihood of forming a valid meld should be taken into careful consideration when deciding when to knock. 25-05-31

- Alternatively, if a player observes that no twos have been discarded, they may choose to hold onto any twos they currently have in their hand in the event that they later prove useful for meld formation. Players can learn which cards their rivals are collecting by monitoring their discards. An opponent's intended meld may be predicted by a player if they observe that their opponent is frequently selecting particular suits or ranks from the discard pile. Utilizing this information strategically can help one side form similar melds before the other or prevent the other side from finishing their melds. In general, being aware of discards is a useful ability that can offer players a competitive advantage in 777 Rummy. Jokers are a crucial component of 777 Rummy, and you should use them carefully to get the most out of them. 25-05-31
