drawn to those people here's the chart and we're drawn to the people that are the dots way off the chart right what makes them special and i found it right away and poker um that all these a-list actors and rappers and you know i mean drake came up to me the other day yeah we knew we hung out we played we gambled together for a while and i find that just kind of uh i was like wow why why do they want to hang out with me and i thought yeah i mean i'm doing something which is kind of cool you know yeah and and in a way that the average person will just never even begin to approach you know yeah when i look back okay so that time period when you would put out your first book and everything um poker was rising in popularity at that point but had not yet officially exploded it's always weird for me to look back at that time period too and realize that rounders was many years before the real poker booth that was like NUMBER_TOKEN i think right so it's like it's weirdly uh like prophetic they knew that this PROFANITY_TOKEN was coming and it was gonna be huge because the movie wasn't that big at the time yep and matt damon wasn't a huge actor at the time either yeah yeah but so then the game really starts to explode is your mentality like wow like that's like buying bitcoin early like i became really good at poker before i knew it was going to be this big describe your mental state at watching the game that you dedicated your life into become a frenzy well i knew it i knew in the NUMBER_TOKEN i went on record saying hey eventually we're going to play in stadiums and people are going to watch us so i had a vision for that happening eventually we're going to be on television but it took a lot longer so then after five six years and by the time we hit NUMBER_TOKEN NUMBER_TOKEN i'm like well maybe i'm wrong i guess i didn't think about it and then all of a sudden boom it took off much bigger than i could have imagined even right like it was crazy um i mean like we're treated like we're treated like the top two or three guys are treated like a-list actors everywhere we go you're on tv every minute of the day since NUMBER_TOKEN-NUMBER_TOKEN i've i've been able to just come into any restaurant no matter how big and they somehow somebody if the somehow somebody recognizes me i think the food service industry people are my biggest fans thanks guys it doesn't hurt that you know how are you guys this is the size of PROFANITY_TOKEN minute bowls walking into this place too it's hard to miss they're like wait wait does that who is that tall guy he has a little swagger because i do i do walk with some swagger and then he's like is that a basketball player or is that whatever and then somebody out of the three people at the front desk is like wait wait that's a poker player what's his name phil oh but but but i'm a fan of his and then all of a sudden you have that table it's just kind of a weird yeah dealing it was very weird to just kind of go from you know but from since NUMBER_TOKEN in the poker world whenever i walked into
