This week Rob Washam and the RecPoker RECing Crew interview new member Scott Lum! Recently retired from his day job and focusing on ways to help people learn about poker, Scott talks about the importance to the ecosystem of bar leagues, how they can be feeders for underrepresented player groups like women, what it's like to adjust to different player pools, and why he's excited to join the RECing Crew. We also play Stake/Study Stack with Joe Kulas, Jim Reid, and Kim Kilroy 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!
