Michelle Farmer and Natascha Carpenter met 8 years ago in a bar poker league. They founded Royal Queens Poker in Atlanta in 2024 after seeing the lack of diversity in other leagues. They discuss with Andrew, Carlos, and Gloria Jackson the challenges and rewards of running a poker business, their own experiences on the real money circuit, and more.

Thanks to Caitlyn Arnwine for connecting us with them!
