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.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
