    Never seen or even heard of Lex Fridman, but I do appreciate his interview style. Straight to the point questions, and ALLOWS the person to fully answer. So many times in these sort of interviews the host tries to control the convo or allows their ego to chime in too much. Instead he allowed a poker legend share more than he has in the past 20+ years. Great job!

    This was one of my favorite podcasts/interviews. I've been playing poker for over 20 years and used to play full time. I always thought Daniel did a great job of explaining the game and concepts in layman's terms for the sake of teaching or conveying ideas, much like he did here. Then you have Lex who knows little to nothing about the gam, but is a critical and analytical thinker and even without knowing the game is able to discern and ask astute questions. It ended up being a high level thinking component with regards to poker talk and theory/ideology, and I found that fascinating. At the same time, one can ascertain parallels from the critical thinking required for poker to general life and using those same thinking skills.

    Amazing Podcast! It's such a pleasure to listen to Daniel talk Poker - the passion with which he speaks on the game, carefully choosing his words, so beginners and intermediate players alike can understand where he is coming from, it's just awesome to see. A true legend of the game, and it wouldn't be the same without him. Just so fun to listen to at the tables or at a podcast - one of the greatest ambassadors we have in the game (even to this day).

    Hey Lex, as a Poker Player for the past 55 years, I am 67 and playing for cash since I'm 12 years old, having this young man on is great! I have watched Dan play since he came on the poker scene. When I would watch him a decade ago, he would call guys hands, J Q he'd say... And the fucking guy had J Q!! Or the next best either way... Always blew me away. He has a gift that not too many will ever figure out or get a piece of. The game of Poker is ever evolving in what strategies are available to a player. Remember, one night, you clean up, the next, you get cleaned out. LOL I prefer playing only tournaments these days. Pay the entry for a great payoff. Cash games anymore are too volitile and anyone can make stupid all in bets and hit on the river and take your straight to the cleaners when he hits the flush on the river. Good luck, Lex. Let's play. I'm in NYC!! Greenwich Village!

I was part of the self help group in Vegas (Choice Center) were I got to meet him and several other poker players who also took that course as well as many people from other walks of life. I'm not into the game so I didn't know who he was but after getting to know him and doing to of the "stretches" we all had to do I became a fan of the man. Great guy and really funny. Glad to hear he's happy in love. Wonder if he ever got the six pack abs yet;)
