#162 Sean Snyder: High Stakes Mixed-Game Beast & Loser of Many MTTs Jul 23, 2021

Show notes

Today’s guest on CPG is high stakes mixed game crusher and tournament crushee Sean Snyder.
There’s really no way to measure this but I’d bet money Sean holds the title of being the best overall poker player who has the worst lifetime results in MTTs. Somebody has to hold that mantle, right?
The good news is that Sean is exceptionally well-equipped to bear that burden.
When I think of the grittiness and superhuman mental toughness needed to sustain the massively high levels of success Sean has had in poker over many, many years it’s very easy for me to feel jealous.
The man is a pro’s pro and the kind of poker player we should all aspire to be.
Oh yeah, he’s pretty awesome at telling amazing stories, too which you’re about to find all about.
In today’s episode with Sean Snyder, you’re going to learn:
- An unexpected way inactivity can be really, really bad for live poker players.
- The downsides of the autonomy and freedom poker offers.
- Some no-brainer tips for getting invites to private games.
- And much, much more!
So, without any further ado I bring to you a pro’s pro... The always hilarious and witty elite mixed-game outcast Sean Snyder.

#158 Adam Kreek: High Performance Jedi, Olympic Gold Medalist, and Bestselling Author Jul 09, 2021

Show notes

Today’s show welcomes back one of my good friends, the always brilliant, gripping, and inspiring high performance Jedi, Adam Kreek.
Adam’s a Stanford educated, highly decorated multiple time world-champion, and Olympic gold medalist rower who has multiple Hall of Fame busts on his mantle.
He’s a human being that lives to push the envelope and always seeks out his limits.
Sometimes that has meant victory and glory and other times that’s meant gut wrenching defeat... Like the time he was part of a crew that sought to become the first humans ever cross the Atlantic Ocean in a rowboat but capsized in the Bermuda triangle right at the finish line.
But Adam Kreek is not a man who will ever be defined by victory or defeat. He’s someone who will always be defined by grittiness, persistence, and sheer power of will....
And, to your favorite podcast host, that makes him the epitome of greatness.
These days Adam’s a powerful guide and world-class teacher with a wealth of knowledge to share with you on how you can realize your full potential at any stage of your life.
He’s also an executive coach, an elite corporate trainer and an A-list keynote speaker. And in 2019, he published his first book that is one of my personal favorites of all time “The Responsibility Ethic”.
And, if you really wanna get fired up, head directly to YouTube after listening to this episode and check out Adam’s TED talk, “I Seek Failure.” I promise you won’t regret it.
Greatness Bombs you’re about to hear in this episode of Chasing Poker Greatness include:
- How to get back on track when dealing with your inevitable poker failures.
- Why happiness is not guaranteed after any of your life successes.
- How to embrace boldness in your poker career.
- How the power of belief is imperative to your poker game.
- And much, much more!
So without any further ado, I bring to you one of my favorite humans in the world, awe inspiring performance coach, Olympic champion, and author Adam Kreek.

#157 Andrew Brokos: Host of "Thinking Poker" & Author of "Play Optimal Poker 1 & 2" Jul 07, 2021

Show notes

Today’s guest on Chasing Poker Greatness is the author of “Play Optimal Poker 1 & 2” and the host of the Thinking Poker podcast, the bearded wonder himself Andrew Brokos.
Brokos’ resume includes being a coach at both Red Chip Poker & Tournament Poker Edge, writing regularly for Two Plus Two magazine, and was also a past contributor to CardPlayer magazine as well as a sponsored PokerStars pro.
Oh yeah, he’s also pretty good at playing cards as well. He has close to $1 million in cashes in the live MTT arena but his bread and butter has been terrorizing the fine citizens in the cash game streets of online poker.
Brokos is one of the genuine good human beings in the world of poker who, as far as I can tell, always tries to create as much value as he possibly can for anyone who consumes his content.
In today’s conversation, Brokos and I are going to dive deep into a whole host subjects including:
- Our deep love for Thinking Poker co-host and CPG regular Carlos Welch.
- Solvers, tells, and cbets ... oh my!
- Being at peace with making decisions despite feeling loads of uncertainty.
- And much, MUCH more!
So without any further ado, I bring to you world-class podcaster, author, teacher, and poker player… the great Andrew Brokos.
