Ep 635 - Chats: LoriAnn Persigner joins the RECing Crew!

This week Jim Reid and the RecPoker RECing Crew welcome back to the show new Crew member LoriAnn Persinger! As a Las Vegas resident, LoriAnn shares some details about how she chooses what tournaments to play, and what cardrooms she prefers to play in. We also discuss field sizes, prizepool guarantees, structures, re-entry formats and more. Plus LoriAnn shares some stories from working in the poker industry over the years, as well as some entertaining exploits she’s encountered as a player! The group talks about their favourite places to play poker in Vegas, what makes for a fun cardroom, how we can all make the poker world a better place, and what LoriAnn is looking forward to doing with RecPoker.

We also play Stake/Study Stack with Jen Shahade, Mario Ho and Jamie Kerstetter and we Close The Action with our speed round! Plus of course we raffle away a free prize at the end for folks in the YouTube chat, to help support a local food bank. Join us LIVE on YouTube next Monday at 7:30 ET for free to ask our guests questions in real time, and you can win too!
