Talk about a close race!

The TPT Live Show featured special guest Joe Navarro and Paul did an incredible job on the interview. We covered a lot of ground in the area of poker tells and it’s a must-listen-to show. You can listen above or hear just the interview portion here.

We were also able to get a long time friend of the TPT on live, @The_Gov! This interview was wide ranging including a follow up discussion to the Navarro interview, poker personalities, hair dressers, Southie movies and Vegas indiscretions.
