Joe “Stapes” Stapleton

Now I’m seeing this post in the clear light of day, I want to recognize what an honor it is and how excited I am to be a part of this world class brand and team. We’re going to have a lot of fun on poker’s biggest stage and hopefully make it even bigger.

@Amo4sho @WSOP 💜

@Stapes @WSOP Loved your commentary. For sure need to get you back!

Just wanted to say thanks to the @WSOP for giving me a shot this summer, the players, the viewers, and especially all the people working behind the scenes all endeavoring to make me look less bad.

@ScottBonzDMI @WSOP Scotty!

@Stapes @WSOP It's never been a better time to be a fan. Beautiful coverage for days on end.... ON ESPN!

@Chelsearory @WSOP Thank you, my friend.

@Stapes @WSOP You shone, mate. Coverage was elite throughout but I especially enjoyed your contribution.

@LexyGavinPoker @WSOP Thanks, Lexy!!

@PokerCapone @WSOP Ha! More work for me! 😭

@Stapes @WSOP Great job and the only thing it was missing was during the empty short commercial breaks they should have had you either tell a stand up joke or do a card trick for the 1 min!

@LanceMarner @WSOP No need to tear others down!!

@Stapes @WSOP You did better than Blez

@PuffDG456 @kenndogg_1 @TeamPokerFlops @WSOP Thanks, boss!! Is ol KenDogg still ranting into the abyss? 😂

@kenndogg_1 @Stapes @TeamPokerFlops @WSOP And a funny joke at that - which is highly useful for a comedian. Joe thanks for all the entertainment this summer ; I personally thought it was a great summer for WSOP commentary and coverage and I know will comeback even stronger.

Kevin Ordet hears “call” instead of “count” and exposes aces in a six-bet pot. Tanya Zhang now knows exactly where her kings stand—and folds. Tournament poker chaos. via @WSOP

@hellamuzzarella @WSOP I’ve had to have several voice procedures due to some growths, yes, you weren’t imagining it. Has to happen from time to time when things get bad. Been a few years now, so hopefully I’m in the clear.

@Stapes @WSOP You did a great job as always! Was wondering if you used to smoke then quit? A few years ago I remember your voice sounding really rough even though way back in your earliest days it was fine. But now this year it’s much less rough! If you did quite smoking congrats

@Materdoo @trader_mist @WSOP I couldn’t imagine being that unhappy, no. It’s something to be pitied, I think.

@Stapes @trader_mist @WSOP Could you imagine being as big a dick as he is to go out of your way to say something shitty.

@TheEdman @WSOP Randaaayyyy

@Stapes @WSOP RANDY!

@Materdoo @WSOP Thank you, friend. 💜

@Stapes @WSOP Great job!

@ScottEllio21008 @WSOP They (legally) have several more cracks at it. Catch you next year. 😉

@Stapes @WSOP They made a noble, albeit failed attempt.

@MannyDaxwell @ShaneSchleger @WSOP Aye. Much appreciated. 🫡

@Stapes @ShaneSchleger @WSOP Was watching some of the coverage the last two nights and it was good to hear you behind the mic. One of the good people Joe 🫡☘️

All the very best people on this website are going to be very disappointed. 😂

@Materdoo @trader_mist @WSOP Dick, sure. Loser, more accurate. And flat out incorrect. 😂

@trader_mist @Stapes @WSOP Dick

@SlowPokerTime @WSOP It’s in their charter.

@Collybear1990 @WSOP @nanonoko @MariaHo @dwpoker I think we’re all good on that! 😂

@Stapes @WSOP If your not back next year we riot, you added your level of brilliance and wit as always and had some great dance partners, esp with @nanonoko @MariaHo and @dwpoker,

@vibhu @WSOP Thank youuuuuuu! (Sendu)

@Stapes @WSOP you crushed it

@PshawP @WSOP I was talking about getting handsy with myself and if that still offends you I don’t really care.

@Stapes @WSOP Joe you were great.Thanks for all the time grinding the commentary.Gentle critique though-for next time k? Early on in the series you made a joke about a player getting "handsy"just like you do when your fiance falls asleep. Not cool. Make sense?
