Daniel Negreanu (@realkidpoker) is fresh off a $3.3 million win in the Super High Roller Bowl. Perhaps the most famous poker player on the planet, he is ranked #3 on the all-time money list. We start with a discussion of the new era in poker ("the Solver era") and some recent adjustments he's made in his game. We move on to some deep history - his move from Canada to Vegas; his early years with Phil Ivey, Allen Cunningham, and John Juanda; some very big gambling in the early years; and the "pump-up years" in the poker economy after WSOP 2003, Rounders, and the Andy Beal games. He tells some great golf-gambling stories from the late 2000s, and he explains how his competitive goals shifted from cash games to tournaments. Daniel goes through his WSOP routine each year, which includes a prep period, followed by extreme intensity during the WSOP (where he often gains ten to fifteen pounds), and then a long rest period.…

David Benefield (@DWBenefield) is a poker legend with an incredible story. He started poker at age 16 after watching the movie Rounders. He dominated the biggest games online from ages 21-26.

He then worked in investment management for a decade, before starting a content community at www.epsilontheory.com in 2013. Epsilon Theory quickly found a large audience of over 100,000 email subscribers. For the past several years, Epsilon Theory has been a vibrant, paywalled content community. We discuss three primary topics in this podcast. In the first 50 minutes, we discuss Ben's recent long piece on Fed policy, "NGMI". Ben makes it clear that his stance on risk assets has mostly changed from one of bullishness to one of bearishness, based on his view that there has been a sustained change in the Fed narrative. We then move on to discuss Ben's long piece on cryptocurrency, "The MacGuffin, Part 1". We end with fifteen minutes on the current state of the paid content space (Ben surprised me by being bearish on Substack and the micropayments model).…
