Episode notes

In this episode, we will chat with long-time high-stakes poker player Matt Berkey. Matt will share his 20-year journey in poker, which found him reflecting on if this is something worth pursuing ten years after having gone broke several times. At some point, he was down $5,000,000 playing 300/600/1200 in Ivey's room while simultaneously dealing with a personal loss. In the pod, he will share with us the mindset and technical abilities he had to develop to turn things around. Enjoy!
