Sessions

High Stakes poker vet DGAF hit rock bottom in 2017, after twice rising to the top of the poker world. He embarks on his "3rd Rise" homeless, buried in debt, with no bankroll, and with bills piling up by the day. He also has "Poker PTSD" after too many years in the game and one entire year filled with coolers and bad beats... Ride along as he attempts to do the impossible--make one last comeback under extreme duress, while wrestling his demons and working on himself everyday, and also, being the very best single dad he can be! This podcast is a documentary for the open-minded who love comeback stories, crazy journeys, human nature, self-examination, brutal honesty, and POKER. Hosted on Acast.

Great poker content even better life content
01/05/2021
This pod is a great listen for anyone even mildly interested in poker or has kids or likes sports or has a job or is looking for an escape. Pretty much anyone with a pulse should give this a listen and you will be drawn into the story. The sweat listening to the poker sessions is engaging and insightful with the best player descriptions anywhere! The inclusion of everything non-poker like coaching his kids basketball teams or the restaurants he visits really help to make this a pod about much more than poker. DGAF is a great story teller and is creating an amazing community for those who want to engage with other communal folks. With each episode I am excited to see where we will go, it could be a 2-5 poker session, a 10-20 session or a high roller story or a recap of the last basketball practice no matter what it will be a fun and entertaining listen! DGAF provides a positive outlook on a variety of circumstances. Wether it’s addressing mental health, sharing an uplifting story or finding understanding for everyone this pod consistently helps me gain perspective in my own life. This is an amazing podcast!
Rehashed content weeks late

All this podcast is consists of audio from YouTube videos that were released a week earlier. How lazy can you be as a podcaster? We can just watch the YouTube videos and get this content a week earlier. Lame. What a hack
Easily a 5 star sans the psych psych

A Poker Lifer's Life Story - What a Journey
01/04/2021
This podcast is about being a human first, and a poker pro second. The most important things in DGAF's life are his kids, his girlfriend, his podcast, and his life story. Only after that in importance comes the poker. You get to learn the man behind the mic: his humor, his foibles, his rage, and his huge heart. Just as all movies aren't about the plot, all poker content isn't about the poker. If you find yourself enjoying movies, books, and shows for the character development and growth and human hilarity, you'll probably enjoy this podcast. If poker is all you think about and all you care about, well there are plenty of other podcasts out there for you. Don't get it twisted though - the poker sessions described in the podcast are a big part and are always very entertaining too. DGAF's amazing ability to weave a wonderful tapestry out of everyday life is what makes this podcast amazing. He draws wonderful people to him by sheer force of will. If you're drawn to this podcast like I was, you're cut from the same wonderful cloth as the people in this community.

I didn’t know what to expect from this pod cast and it is everything I didn’t expect. If that makes sense. DGAF invites you into his life, the ups and downs, the good the bad, the pretty and the ugly. I have grown to respect the man behind the mic. I jumped aboard for the porker content from who I have learned is one of the greatest of all times. I have learned so much from his unique insight into the game and look forward to when I can play live poker again. But the surprise is I have learned life experience as well. The honesty DGAF spews about his life and hardships and dealing with those two things is not only sad at times but encouraging and hopeful. The love he has for LMF and LF and the sacrifices he makes to keep their lives running smooth along the tracks is just pure love! I’m completely hooked and have a lot of catching up to do and I look forward to every time the whistle blows!! Steam on brother and may you achieve this third rise with dignity and grace. Thank you for bringing us all along to learn and grow with you. Peace! Lisa S.
Stunning, Brilliant, and Transformative
11/07/2020
This outstanding podcast by the legendary poker player DGAF who has earned the respect of top poker players like Garrett Adelstein, Matt Berkey, Tervor Savage, and Matt Moore, has produced a Podcast that towers above all other poker podcasts. What you get is a glimpse into the nature of human life, with all its beauty, struggles, and triumphs. The poker stories, and the details of the poker sessions and hand history are awesome, but what sets Sessions apart is that DGAF provides a profound glimpse into the deepest features of the human heart, in ways that resonates with us, but that most of us are too afraid to reveal. He tells us exactly how he feels, thinks, and behaves, sometimes to the shock of the listener, because he’s willing to share motives or actions that are less than flattering or pretty, which most of us try to conceal. There is no podcast like this in which a real, flesh and blood human being, is willing to be so brutally honest with himself and with us, as he takes us on a journey that, despite all its sweat, pain, and toil, will ultimately result in success, joy, and deep happiness.
Great Pod!

Just discovered this pod. What a gem! Love following his reentry into poker and his honest and raw look into his life. I can relate to balancing life/kids with playing poker. Now all I have to do is finish the 2018/2019 stories so I can get up to date!
Listen once, you’ll be hooked!

I dare anyone to listen to only one episode of this podcast! There’s something addictive about the story, the way he tells it, the interweaving of poker, kids, Vegas life etc that will not let you go! Sometimes it feels like a car crash, but you’re hoping against hope he’ll jump out of the car and say ‘I’m fine, folks’. Truly a captivating podcast, highly recommended. YmcQ
