A trio of poker greats is the latest addition to the VSiN (Vegas Sports and Information Network) roster.
Phil Hellmuth, along with Mike Matusow and Brandon Cantu, launched a new sports betting podcast on the network dubbed “Fade Us Sports.” Between the three players, they own a combined 23 World Series of Poker bracelets and $50 million in earnings.
David Woodley will join them as the fourth host. Woodley is a sports media executive without a WSOP bracelet. However, he does own four WSOP Circuit titles.
The show gives the players the chance not to talk poker, but to offer up their insight on sports betting. The weekly podcast kicked off on Wednesday. Starting in September, they will film the episodes live from the VSiN studio at Circa Resort Casino in Downtown Las Vegas.
“Fade Us captures the conversations every bettor has with friends on game day,” Hellmuth said. “Partnering with VSiN is a natural fit, pairing our everyman perspective with the sharp insights of the industry’s true experts. Our show is built on the same banter and strategy talks that happen in the living rooms and sportsbooks everywhere. VSiN is the perfect home, connecting everyday bettors with the best minds in the game.”
From Poker To Prognostication
Hellmuth, Matusow, and Cantu aren’t strangers to online sports betting. They regularly publicize their picks on social media throughout the NFL season.
VSiN said the four hosts will apply their “championship mindset” and “sharp perspectives” to sports betting. That includes NFL breakdowns, sharing strategies for finding an edge, and delivering insider stories from poker’s biggest stages.

Additionally, the crew will offer their survivor strategies for the upcoming week. They’ll give an inside look at how seasoned pros and insiders approach the popular betting contest.
“This new podcast represents a collection of some of the greatest minds in the history of gambling, and we’re thrilled to add this title to our network of premier sports betting podcasts,” said VSiN’s presdient and chief business officer Brian Musburger. “While they’re poker royalty, Phil, Mike, Brandon, and David may not be as well known for their sports betting prowess, but it’s clear that they don’t like to lose. Every gambler can learn from these guys.”
Despite the partnership on the new shoe, Hellmuth had harsh words for Matusow on a recent Poker Night in America episode.
