Los Angeles high-stakes poker player Gal Yifrach is facing two felony counts related to, as the feds say, running an illegal gambling operation.
Yifrach has been a regular on Southern California live-streamed poker shows such as Live at the Bike for quite some time. He won a World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet in 2018 and finished third last year in Event #38: $50,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold'em for $495,305.
According to an indictment filed March 3 in the United States District Court Eastern District of California, he's also allegedly been making money in an illegal manner.
