In this episode, I sit down with my friend James, aka PMan, to dive into his journey as a professional poker player. We talk about the highs and lows of grinding at the tables, the mindset needed to go pro, and the real challenges that come with the lifestyle.
Early poker players often share insights about bankroll management, the importance of discipline, and how to deal with variance. Many newcomers think poker is all about luck or flashy tournament wins, but the reality is a lot less glamorous—long hours, emotional control, and constant study are key to success. We also break down common misconceptions, like the idea that pros win every session or that online poker is rigged.
If you’ve ever thought about going pro or just want to hear the inside story from someone who’s lived it, this episode is for you.
