How to become a poker millionaire

How would the best in the game get rich if they had to start today? A new video from a self help guru reveals all this week.





Self help guru and former Facebook employee number 30 Noah Kagan flew to the World Series of Poker this year to straight up ask some of the biggest names in the game what their biggest winning and losing days were. 

It's a very cliched question asked by non poker players but it still yielded some interesting answers from some very well known people in the game. 

Jared Bleznick, Matt Berkey, Hac Dang, Chris Moneymaker and Jonathan Little were all among the notable players who shared their biggest winning and losing days. They also shared how they deal mentally with loss, their stories of playing with celebrities and their advice on how to make $1 million at the table.  

Kagan also manages to comically dupe Bleznick into doing a product placement for him which is worth watching the video on its own. 

What would your gameplan be if you had to make $1 million in a year at poker? Let us know in the comments:
