Today’s return guest on CPG is the author of “A Girl’s Guide to Poker”, the always brilliant and engaging Amanda Botfeld.

Despite her book tour being on ice because of a global pandemic, Amanda hasn’t been sitting around resting on her laurels. Not only has she been studying and growing as a poker player, she’s also been creating and teaching a college level poker course for the next generation of card players.

In the following conversation, you’re gonna hear me get fired up at some despicable internet trolls who are so miserable and have so little going on in their lives that they feel the need to tear someone down who's doing everything in her power to grow and popularize this game.

The reason why that touched a nerve with me is because if the next poker boom is meant to come from a large influx of women entering the poker world, it will be exactly because of folks like Amanda Botfeld and in SPITE of the slimy trolls who exist only to ooze out of the sewers to spread their awfulness.

And if you’re as passionate about growing this beautiful game as much as Amanda and I, and want to see it thriving for many, many years to come… highly consider either scooping up a copy of Amanda’s book or directing a human being you love in your life to pokerpowher.com.

In today’s episode with Amanda Botfeld, you’re going to learn:

- Amanda’s path to teaching a college poker course.
- How poker has touched almost every aspect of Amanda’s life.
- And much, MUCH more!

Now, without any further ado, I bring to you poker pro, author, and teacher… the thoughtful and articulate grower of poker, Amanda Botfeld.
