This week Jim Reid and Chris Jones interview Jonathan Levy and Grant Denison - otherwise known as The Poker Guys from the popular podcast The Breakdown! They talk about their own working chemistry, other fun projects they've tinkered with, the process of breaking down a hand from a listener, how they would study poker these days, how recreational players can avoid some common mistakes, the future of poker both live and online, and a lot more! Plus we give away a copy of their book "How Can He Fold?" to a lucky YouTube viewer in our weekly contest - join us every week on Monday nights at 6:30 CT for your chance to win!
