Poker Pro. Went Broke. Built a Game Anyway.

In this episode, we sit down with DGAF — the man behind one of LA’s most legendary poker lineups — and unpack the real story behind the chips.

From learning five-card draw at age 7 to losing it all (twice) to building a daily 5/5/10 at Hustler, this is a story of resilience, regret, and rebuilding.

💬 We talk:
– Why being “good for the game” beats being the best
– Going broke even while winning
– How to host games that actually last
– And the mental traps most poker pros never escape

This is not a strategy episode. It’s a story episode. A “why the hell am I still doing this?” episode.

🎧 Listen in — and maybe rethink what a winning poker life really looks like.

🎧 Episode 71 - Table 1 Has Some Fun

This week’s episode is what happens when you mix high-stakes poker with low-stakes nonsense — and we mean that as a compliment.

We start with Art comparing himself to the Incredible Hulk, recent results on PokerGO (a little bragging, a little bankroll update). Then we dive into:

• New faces coming to Table 1
• A dash of exposure (giggity)
• The wild world of live poker at Venetian

Midway through? We invent a new game (CookamaBUNGO™), share the secret to a great marriage (spoiler: it’s not therapy), and brainstorm how to turn cat-sitting into a profitable side hustle during the WSOP.

And yes — there’s butt stuff. And concierge doctors. You know… normal Table 1 stuff.
