One of my favourite poker podcasts had an
interview with ryanghall this year. While some pros that threw away everything to do nothing but make money from other poker players later had regrets about how little they contribute to society, Ryan has managed to have the best of both worlds. He has won several million in playing poker part-time while making an impact teaching young people for years, and having a wife and child.
