This week Jim Reid and the RecPoker RECing Crew interview poker author Alex O’Brien, who shares some stories about her career as a writer and player, the difference between science writing and poker writing, balancing time for projects she is passionate about, life lessons from poker and from writing, playing in the 2024 WSOP and the role of one’s rail, and a lot more!

We also play Stake/Study Stack with Dara O’Kearney, Jen Shahade and Maria Konnikova and we Close The Action with our speed round.

Plus of course we raffle away a free prize at the end for folks in the YouTube chat, to help support a local food bank. Join us LIVE on YouTube next Monday at 7:30 ET for free to ask our guests questions in real time, and you can win too!
