Nathan was 12 years old when he started playing poker in his father's regular game, fast forward less than two decades and now he has 2 WSOP bracelets to his name. His is a fascinating story. We talk about him growing up as a kid playing an adult game, college years, Nathan's 4 years in the military, him being kidnapped as a teen, and of course the WSOP glory. Eventually, we get to the topic of the Galfond Challenge and poker on Twitch. There is a lot in between, I won't give you spoilers. Hope you enjoy it and please leave a comment about your favorite part!
