    From First Hand to Final Table: How Tournament Pros Really Win

    In this episode of In the Money Poker Podcast, host sits down with professional tournament poker player Michael Gabriel to break down what actually separates players who survive from players who cash. Michael walks through the three critical phases of tournament poker: how to approach the early stages without burning chips, how to shift gears in the middle to avoid getting blinded out, and how to stay aggressive and apply pressure when it matters most near the final table. This is not about flashy plays or unnecessary risks. It’s about discipline, position, reading opponents, and knowing when to press and when to wait. Michael shares real-world tournament insights, practical decision-making strategies, and the mindset required to stay ahead as the blinds rise and the pressure increases. If you play tournament poker or want to think like someone who consistently makes deep runs, this episode will change how you approach the game.

    Episode 10 - Good Poker vs. Evil Poker

    In this week's episode of the In the Money Poker podcast, host Michael Gabriel dives into the concepts of "good poker" versus "evil poker" and how a player's mindset and decision-making can go from skillful to reckless. He shares his personal experience over the last few months grinding free poker tournaments and building his bankroll from $0 with the goal of making it to the World Series of Poker. Michael explains how he started out playing disciplined, winning poker, but after some bad beats he slowly adapted the careless style of weaker players around him, calling it his "evil poker." Michael stresses the importance of knowing your own optimal style of play, and catching yourself when you go on tilt or make gambles outside your strategy. He asks listeners to think about what constitutes their own "good" versus "evil" poker and not allow themselves to be sucked into the dark side. With insightful poker strategy analysis and an engaging personal story, this episode reminds players to stick to their A-game and resist the urge to chase losses with overly loose, passive play.
