Today’s guest on the Chasing Poker Greatness podcast has over $4.2 million in live MTT cashes and is the founder of the Charity Series of Poker, Matt Stout.

Matt’s origin story into the world of poker began as a 19-year-old college student and has taken the man around the world.

And not just for travel but also for you know… living, as Black Friday forced Matt to seek out places where he could continue his online poker career. He’s lived in places like Costa Rica, Amsterdam, and Rosarita, Mexico.

If you’ve ever been curious about living the life of a traveling online poker player, you’re about to learn which of those locales was Matt’s favorite and which one almost killed him.

And, like I say pretty much in every single CPG intro, you’re also going to learn example #1021 of why I believe the poker world is chock-full of amazing human beings who not only chase poker greatness, but also chase what it means to be a great human being as well.

In today’s episode with Matt Stout, you’re going to learn:

- The events that led to Matt running charity poker tournaments for the Vegas Golden Knights.
- Why college ended a bit early for Matt and a hilarious story about paying his tuition.
- Matt’s trials and tribulations dealing with the aftermath of Black Friday.
- And much, MUCH more!

Now, without any further ado, I bring to you an all-time great poker player who lives to serve his fellow man… the great Matt Stout.
