This week, Matt Berkey is locked in and dishing out some excellent advice and thoughtful takes on the hot topics in poker.

Joining our hosts Dara and David, Matt weighs in on the bizarre decision by WSOP to hold an online/live hybrid Main Event in December, despite the raging pandemic. The conversation then switches to the recent squabble between Polk and Dnegs over manually note-taking during their heads-up match and Bill Perkins tweets on the subject. After that, there is a broad discussion on competition in poker against the backdrop of betting company mergers.

David asks Matt about his role in helping Landon Tice win the MSPT Main Event which morphs into a broader chat on mindset coaching which in turn morphs into a chat on coaching in general. Dara gives his insights on a GTO Vs Exploit approach to the game. The conversation finishes off with a call-back to the previous show when the lads analysed the polling data and betting markets ahead of the US election. This time, they look at the strange anomaly of people still betting on Trump despite the election being called in Biden's favour.
