This week Elle and I break down the Patreon game on "Table Talk". The game continues to grow and we had such a good time with that. Click the link below to sign up for the next one. We also talk about Doug Polk's struggles to get a new poker room open in Texas, and what has Elle contributed to her improvement in poker recently. "Call the Floor" this week is all about collusion and Patrick and I break down a "Hand of the Week" this week that starts a discussion about how to play each street as well as making sure that you tell a consistent story. I wrap the show with my "One-Outer" talking about different personalities in a home game.
