In this episode of Beyond The Grind I speak with long time high stakes PLO player and Sports Bettor Jonas 'Liqqa' Gjelstad. 

We discuss a variety of different topics such as moving abroad and playing poker, transitioning from Heads Up to 6 max, the differences of understanding between poker players and sports bettors when it comes to areas such as variance, EV and bankroll management. As well as discussing moving into new opportunities away from poker, advice to poker players looking for new opportunities and finally the more recent scandals around RTA'ing in poker.
