Card Player's High Stakes Poker Spotlight is a podcast that takes an in-depth look at some of the game’s best and richest players. In this episode Brian Pempus interviews heads-up no-limit hold’em legend Doug Polk. Polk has two WSOP bracelets and more than $5 million in lifetime tournament earnings, but he’s best known for being one of the toughest heads-up NLH player alive. In this interview, Polk talks about last year playing the world’s top poker bot and some of the ways the online game has changed over the years. He also gives some insight into how he climbed the ladder in the online poker world and what it’s like to attempt that these days.
