I am a huge poker enthusiast. I like poker much more than I am good at it. That is not true of this episode’s guest, American poker player Scott Blumstein.
Blumstein graduated from Temple University with an accounting degree before becoming a professional poker player.
Last summer, he entered his first World Series of Poker Main Event, along with over 7000 other hopeful players.
Outlasting everyone in a week’s plus of poker play, Scott Blumstein won the
World Series of Poker Main Event, a coveted WSOP bracelet and $8,150,000.
He won in dramatic fashion when the Deuce of Hearts landing on the river (which for you non-poker players was one of only 3 cards that could have won him the event).
In this episode we explore Scott’s story and how he went from online player to a poker World Champ.
Not surprisingly his favorite card in the deck is the 2 of Hearts.
