Today’s guest on CPG is the co-host of DAT Poker Podcast and one of the OG online nosebleed end bosses, Terrence Chan. After finding himself in the world of gambling as a middle schooler and then running his own bookmaking business in high school, you could say it was almost destiny that Terrence fell into the world of poker.

Today’s guest is, quite frankly, one of the current best overall poker players on the face of the planet, Dan Zack. Dan’s pursuit of greatness in the world of poker reminds me of a Russian proverb: “If you chase two rabbits, you will not catch either one.” When I put on my research hat while preparing for today’s show, one thing immediately became apparent: Dan Zack, an ELITE and brilliant poker mind, has basically zero presence on the internet besides his Twitter account. This, to me, was a ref...

Today’s guest on Chasing Poker Greatness is a blast from the past… Jimmy “Gobboboy” Fricke. Sometimes when you don't hear a poker player’s name for a while in poker media, you can’t help but wonder “What happened to them?” with the typical follow-up thought being, “I really hope they’re okay”. In today’s show you’ll be happy to learn that not only is Jimmy okay, but he’s thriving in a world totally outside of poker which, to those of us who have felt locked inside the game with no way out, is a ...

Today’s guest on CPG is one of the premiere live & online poker tournament players in the world (With over 9.3 million in live MTT cashes), Shannon Shorr. It makes sense that Shannon would be special guest number 200 because his first CPG appearance is still, to this day, one of the top-3 most listened to episodes in CPG history. If you haven’t yet checked that one out, I highly suggest hitting the back catalog directly after today’s show. In my experience with Shannon, he’s a model of thoug...

When I was little, my late-grandmother used to tell me "We tease the people we really care about" and, in the case of Jamie Beeman, that wisdom holds true. Jamie has been an amazingly genuine and honorable member of Greatness Village since the first day he joined. That still isn't gonna stop me from giving him grief over the time his mother-in-law accidentally reported me to the credit card police. Hear that hilarious story and much, much more in today's Villager-centered episode on the Chasing ...

Who says the CPG rungood isn’t the real-deal? If you’re not familiar with Mike, he’s a longtime high-stakes mixed game crusher and this will be his second appearance on the show. S...
