Excited for that one!

Interested in hearing his opinion about the current state of poker, pokerstars/amaya, the online ecosystem and all sorts of that.

Papi ask Talal about the history of Pstars and when he thought things really started to change. Was it just Amaya? Or had negative changes occurred before that and we'd still be seeing the negative changes if Amaya hadn't purchased the company.

Ask him if he'd ever invest in an online poker site?

Ask him for his favourite posters on 2+2?

Ask him to offer advice to younger players who are trying to break into online poker for a living? Is it worth it etc?

Really looking forward to this one.

Ask about what steps he takes in his life to maintain concentration during SCOOP, WCOOP, WSOP.
Ask if his employees at the office think of this time as vacation time etc?

Ask if he was a significant shareholder of Amaya, would he be in favour of the approach they are taking?

Ask what got him into poker in the first place?

Ask his opinion on what online poker will look like in 3 years time?

I'd be interested to hear some of his thoughts on bitcoin/cryptocurrencies.

ETA: a few examples to be a bit more specific since it's a large subject:

as an investment
as a store of value
as a hedge against a fiat disaster
as a future highly-used method of payment (like credit cards today)

How did Talal rise to the top of the hedge fund world? Can he give any advice for people trying to get into the hedge fund world?

Prob the best podcast ever.

On the offchance talal reads this thread, as you kinda went quickly over the favourite book part in the pod (never really got the name of the book afaik), could you give your list of top5 books, ranging from finance to psychology to philosophy, not really novels but more of a "learning/selfhelp" type of books.

Talal was very likable and intelligent. He even was classy enough to sit next to Joey on a couch for 2 hours while Joey resembled a gay sailor on a weekend pass. Best guest ever talk is just ridiculous. Guys are just saying that, fantasizing of befriending a billionaire so he can throw them some crumbs.

Got me... ;____;


D But like, atleast I really enjoyed the type of guest that is expert also in other areas than poker, maybe it's because Joey has had so many poker endbosses on that it decreases the value of pokerendboss, compared to hedgefundendboss.

its about an exit strategy from poker,, helmets get moist at the thought of being worth a few hundro milley and the freedom that comes with that imo

scammers thinkin about scamming a billy for some crumbs are doin life wrong. And i havent watched the podcast yet but I am pretty sure the majoirty of viewers who watched the Talel cast want to emulate his financial success post poker not leach a buck off him... and grind it into rake at amayarape

Moist Regards,

Teh world would be a better place w/o leftist clowns.

Always amazes how teh moral highground people end up in a pokerforum? I mean wtf.



Was very happy to see you getting axelrod himself on the pod. Very interesting guy and seemed very down to earth given how big he allegedly is!
