0:00:09Welcome Doug Polk, and congratulations on your $1.2million win vs Daniel Negreanu!
0:00:49Apparently Ben has owed Doug $1,000 for several years. They share the story of how this happened.
0:03:00Arbitrary bank fees suck.
0:04:32Did Doug actually lose money in the Negreanu challenge because of Bitcoin?
0:05:30Doug does not enjoy playing poker. Is there any chance he might take on another challenge despite this?
0:07:26Doug never sat out first in the Negreanu challenge. What was the motivation behind that?
0:08:51Would Doug have kept sitting regardless of how long Negreanu stayed in it, and regardless of his own personal circumstances?
0:12:17Back to Phil Hellmuth for a moment. His overconfidence is hilarious.
0:12:40What was going on behind the scenes of Doug’s challenge vs Negreanu in terms of studying and preparation? It sounds like he had a massive team at his side.
0:17:02Doug publicly mentioned needing to rebuild his game from the ground up in preparation for this challenge, due to how much the game has changed. Can he speak on that a bit?
0:22:02Given the fact that Doug had to rebuild his entire heads-up strategy from scratch, were some of the high odds given in his favour a bit misguided? More thoughts on study, solvers, and how the game has changed.
0:29:23Doug reveals some secrets from his early study methods.
0:30:49Does he think that the modern-day focus on GTO and having the “right” answer at each turn is ultimately good or bad for poker?
0:35:21It’s cool that Doug & Phil both wanted this episode of the podcast to happen, despite being direct competitors.
0:36:09Doug talks about how Phil was an obvious choice to act as arbitrator in the Negreanu challenge because of his sterling reputation and near-universal respect in the poker community.
0:37:54Commercial break from our sponsors at Run It Once.
0:38:52Doug talks about the content creation streets, specifically YouTube. What does he love about it? What does he not love about it? His thoughts on working with editor Thomas Keeling, and Jamie as a joke writer.
0:43:19Doug explains the team process behind his YouTube poker content.
0:45:51Was there ever a joke that they decided was too out of line to include in a video?
0:47:53Doug gives some love to YouTuber, Greg Goes All In.
0:49:03Doug and Negreanu dressed almost identically for their Christmas photos. What’s up with that?
0:50:30Some jokes about popular memes from Doug’s YouTube days.
0:51:14Doug talks about what his plans are moving forward.
0:54:24What motivates Doug to pursue a new activity or vocation? Thoughts on passion vs profit.
1:00:07Wrapping up. Thanks for joining us Doug!
