The Grid 022 ft. Helen Ellis – Seven-Eight suited


Listen Later

Jennifer brings author and poker afficianado Helen Ellis into thepokergrid.com to talk about a hand that symbolized her rebirth in poker and writing in 2015. Helen held 78 suited and was facing a tough line-up at a poker tournament at the Borgata.

Helen is the author of American Housewife (2016) and Southern Lady Code (2019). Jennifer and Helen talk about her long writing draught in her 30s, and how her own story may inspire poker players on a downswing. They also discuss the rudest things to do at the table, how Pulitzer Prize winner Colson Whitehead’s book, “The Noble Hustle” made her brave, and why she likes to feel invisible when she plays.

Follow Helen on Instagram @AmericanHousewife, on twitter @WhatIDoAllDay and find her books on her amazon page.

Now that Helen has discussed 78s, there are 147 hand combos remaining on thepokergrid.com
