Greg Vail: Why Not Learning Split Pot Games Is Costing You Money
Chasing Poker Greatness Podcast Episode 117
Today’s guest on the Chasing Poker Greatness podcast is the author of SCOOP! Winning High Low Concepts for the Hold’em Mind volumes 1, 2, & 3 Greg Vail.
Greg’s a Red Chip Poker Coach and cash game pro who specializes in the world of Big O and Omaha Hi-Lo.
Greg’s poker career is split into two acts:
The first act was from 2005-2010. He was a young, immature kid with horrible spending habits and no discipline trying to figure out how to navigate the world.
Spoiler alert: That didn’t end so well.
So, recognizing he needed to disrupt his lifestyle, Greg joined the Army in 2010 until he was medically discharged in 2015.
Act 2 began in 2015 when Greg fell back into the poker world except this time he was a totally different human being. Strong discipline has a way of doing that.
Since then he’s written 3 books, has helped student after student learn how to improve their split pot skills, and lives for providing and raising his daughter.
In today’s episode, you’re going to learn:
Why Greg chooses to both play and teach split-pot games.
The lessons & wisdom Greg took with him from the Army into poker.
How teaching has helped Greg and myself become better players.
And much, MUCH more!
