Igor Kurganov is one of the most successful live tournament players of the last five years, and with more than $12 million in tournament earnings he ranks 1st on the Russian all-time money list. Spending the majority of his life in Germany, the now London resident would be placed second on the same list in his second home country.

On this podcast Kurganov opens up for the very first time about "The Germans" on the Super High Roller scene, backing, staking and swapping, and the different approaches to becoming successful in poker. 

Aside from poker, Kurganov dives deep into philosophy, and shares highly interesting takes with us on how he views the world.
