The Poker Life and HSPLO Podcasts

Jessica is a 2/5 5/10 10/20 live NL cash game player who has been playing poker longer than I have. We discuss her recent 90k score at the Borgata, how she hates people, her health issues over the years, being a women in poker and more

My old small stakes full ring nemesis and now friend TYromper joins me on this episode. We used to play a ton together back when I was a NL full ring guy and he would own my soul. His graph went straight up. We talk about those old poker times, how he dealt with playing live poker and his relationship post black friday, meeting his new wife, taking trips to Africa for his wifes charity, going back to school and more. 

Max joins me to discuss the upcoming November 9 final table for the WSOP Main Event that he is at and also discusses daily fantasy sports/his DFS website.

Sarah is a producer and presenter for Poker News. In this episode we learned about Sarahs background in Hollywood, how meeting a MMA fighter lead to her working in the poker industry and much more. I've been told by mutual friends that we would get along great and have a very similar style when it comes to having conversations with people and that became obvious right away. I really enjoyed this one :)

Also I picked up a new Mic for my setup.
