049 Bryan "bparis" Paris on Evolving Your Poker Mindset

Bryan “bparis” Paris is one of the most successful MTT players in online poker history.

With $9,671,716.97 in earnings (at the time this episode was released), he ranks 3rd in the all time online earnings leaderboard.

He also runs a popular Twitch channel, where you can regularly find him playing high stakes online MTTs.

Poker success came relatively easily for Bryan. He built his bankroll when the games were soft and was able to maintain a solid win rate without the need for much study.

That all changed in late 2014/early 2015 when he found himself in the biggest downswing of his career.

In a spot where many players would consider leaving the game, Bryan doubled down and decided to work hard to reclaim his spot as one of the top online MTT players in the world.
