Since becoming a coach in 2012, I have worked with over 50 students on developing their games. One of them went on to chop the Sunday Million for over $165,000 and in 2016 I worked with Matt Berkey during his preparation for the 2016 Super High Roller Bowl at the Aria, Las Vegas where he went on to finish 5th for $1,1m. Matt Berkey shares his remarkable story of growing up in a small steel town with a drug addicted mother, pouring himself first into baseball and then into poker, and ultimately rising through the ranks to play as big as $300/$600/$1200 no-limit in Ivey’s room. We also discuss the Solve For Why coaching academy and Infinite Jest!
