Weekend Binge Watch - All The Stories from the Felt

Another weekend lies ahead, so let’s get caught up on one of my favorite shows on PokerGO: Stories from the Felt. Through six episodes, you get to learn more about the players and their stories than ever before, making it must-watch TV for every poker fan.

Picking one episode from this collection of six is really hard, given how they all bring something special to the table. The story of Greg Merson, however, is one that really speaks to more than just the game of cards we all love.

Dealing with addiction, relapsing, and finding a way to manage it with the help of his friends, family, and poker makes The Wake-Up Call an inspiring story of hope and perseverance that lead Merson to become one of the most successful and celebrated WSOP Main Event champions ever.
