    Everyone Wanted Daniel Negreanu to Win…He Ended That. Rare Interview With Joe McKeehen!

Sign up here:https://play.phenompoker.com/register?r=Table1 OR… come play with us in Las Vegas at Table 1https://table1.vegas Joe McKeehen didn’t set out to become a poker player. He was just a normal kid from Philly. Played baseball.Played basketball.Wasn’t particularly great at either. Then poker showed up. Not with a big deposit. Not with a secret bankroll. He built it from nothing. Freerolls.Forums.Random people staking him online. No grand master plan. Just clicking buttons and trying to win money. At one point, he was over six figures in makeup playing tournaments with a backer. Still young. Still learning. Still in college. Then things started to turn. He won a major score his senior year of college — about $175,000. Enough to pay off loans. Enough to believe this might actually work. Then came the summer that changed everything. He had basically bricked the WSOP. No momentum.No heater.Just another grind. Then the Main Event started. Joe says he doesn’t remember much from Day 1 — except leaving to go to the bathroom. By Day 3, he had all the chips. The cards came.People got scared.Everything just worked. Then came the moment everyone remembers. Daniel Negreanu. Cameras everywhere. The whole poker world rooting for the story. They got it in. It was a flip. And Joe won. From there, he ran over the final tables and won the WSOP Main Event. But the story didn’t end there. After the win, people started gunning for him. Pots got bigger. Expectations got louder. And tournament poker kept doing what tournament poker does: You can lose for months. Then the sun shines on you again. In this episode of The Table 1 Podcast, Joe joins Art Parmann and Justin Young to talk about: ♠️ Starting from freerolls and getting staked online♠️ Being six figures in makeup early in his career♠️ Winning $175K while still in college♠️ The WSOP Main Event run — and what he actually remembers♠️ Busting Daniel Negreanu with the whole world watching♠️ Why tournament poker is mostly about surviving variance♠️ Life after winning the Main Event♠️ Why he still approaches poker the same way today If you want to hear what it really feels like to win the biggest tournament in poker — and how random, brutal, and absurd the path can be — this episode is a must-listen.

    He Made Millions Playing Poker…Then His Side Hustle Did Even Better

    Play Poker With the Table 1 Community New players on Phenom Poker can get a 200% deposit bonus up to $2,000. Sign up here:https://play.phenompoker.com/register?r=Table1 OR… come play with us in Las Vegas at Table 1https://table1.vegas Taylor Caby didn’t set out to change poker. He set out to get a job. Finance degree.University of Illinois.Do well in school → get hired → make money. That was the plan. Poker was just something on the side. A few home games.$20 buy-ins.Messing around with friends. Then online poker showed up. And the first problem? He couldn’t even deposit. He asked his dad to use the credit card.Dad said yes.Mom said no. So for six months… he played freerolls. Grinding for pennies. Eventually he figured it out and loaded about $30–$35 online. That was the bankroll. Six months later? He wins a tournament for $3,000. By the end of the year: He’s made $50,000 playing online poker. In college. And within another year… He’s playing some of the biggest games on the internet. Then something bigger happened. He realized something nobody else had figured out yet: People weren’t losing because they were unlucky. They were losing because they didn’t understand the game. So he started recording how he played. Not as a business. Just something to put on a resume. That became CardRunners. The first real poker training site. And almost overnight… Players got better.Games got tougher.And suddenly… People started saying he was ruining poker. From there: ♠️ Built one of the most influential poker businesses ever♥️ Played high-stakes online against the best in the world♦️ Partnered with Full Tilt during the poker boom♣️ Watched it all collapse on Black Friday And here’s the part most people miss: He saw it coming. The whole thing, in his words, “felt like a mirage.” Then he did something most poker players never do. He walked away. Built a DFS company.Lost money.Went back to gambling.Then built another business… Establish The Run. Same idea as CardRunners. Different game. In this episode of The Table 1 Podcast, Taylor joins Art Parmann and Justin Young to break down: ♠️ Turning $35 into $50K (and beyond)♠️ The early days of online poker (and how soft it was)♠️ Building CardRunners from a dorm room♠️ Why players said he “ruined the game”♠️ The truth about Black Friday♠️ Starting (and losing money on) a DFS company♠️ What he learned about business vs poker♠️ How Establish The Run was built If you want to understand how poker evolved from chaos… to strategy… and what it actually takes to build an edge twice… this episode is a must-listen.

Sign up here: https://play.phenompoker.com/register?r=Table1 OR…Come play with us in Las Vegas at Table 1! https://table1.vegas Before poker ever entered the picture, Kenna had already lived a few lifetimes. Actor. Mime. Clown. Waiter on Rodeo Drive. Then somehow…a traveling poker pro sitting next to legends during the early poker boom. In this episode of The Table 1 Podcast, Art (https://x.com/artparmann) and Justin (https://x.com/justinyoung07) sit down with one of poker’s true originals — Kenna James. From deep runs during the Moneymaker era to wild prop bets with Mike Sexton, Kenna’s journey through poker is unlike anyone else’s. But this episode goes deeper than results. Kenna opens up about the emotional highs and brutal lows of the game — losing everything, rebuilding his life, and eventually turning his experience into a philosophy of coaching that blends poker, psychology, and personal growth. It’s a story about ambition, ego, mistakes, second chances… and learning how to win the game beyond the felt.
