Listen now
Description
This week Rob Washam and the RecPoker RECing Crew interview Christin Maschmann! Although there are some audio connection issues throughout the interview, this is a fun one. Christin has worn many hats over the years within the poker industry, and shares several stories about some of the roles she has played. Whether it is advocating for the experience of players in live events, helping to evaluate the caliber of floor staff, her experience of writing a book about her travels, her Hendenmob flag collection, creating and co-ordinating promotional material and events, meeting Jim in Vegas, her struggles with Multiple Sclerosis, her favourite mixed games, and what it’s like to travel the world without a home, Christin brings a refreshing perspective to the life of an industry grinder! We also play Stake/Study Stack with Feder Holz, Christoff Vogelsang, and Karei Ademir 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.
