053 Simon Jonas on Finding Passion in Poker

In this week’s episode, Simon Jonas shares how being a poker pro has given him the freedom to travel the world and explore his passions.

You'll hear how the praise he got from becoming a great player made him question if there was more to poker than just getting to the top, what he discovered after reading 120 books in 2 years, and the one thing he’s sure is more important than mastering math and theory if you want to be good at poker and actually enjoy playing.
