Today’s guest on the Chasing Poker Greatness podcast is poker coach, author, and the founder of the Post Flop Poker Podcast Ben Hayles.Ben’s path towards poker is a little bit different than most folks, including yours truly, simply because he actually had the foresight to put together a plan of action so that he would give himself the best possible chance of success. I know this might be shocking to you but most folks who entered poker in the early 200’s just saved up $3,000, put everything they owned in their ‘94 Mitsubishi Eclipse, and drove 10 hours away hoping everything would work out…Or maybe that was just me.Anyway 18 months after creating the vision for his poker career, Ben found himself stepping on board a plane to Bangkok, excitement coursing through his body, and his life would never be the same again.I’m super pumped up to share that story along with many others with you in a couple of moments.In today’s episode you’re going to learn:Why being a great poker coach is totally different than just being a great poker player.The pivotal piece Ben was missing in his early poker career.The origin story of the Post Flop Poker podcast.And much, MUCH more!So without any further ado I bring to you author, brilliant poker coach, fellow podcaster, and all-around great guy Ben Hayles.

You don't have to be told that at the final table, your decisions matter. So why don't more tournament players work through the spots they're likely to face, under extreme ICM pressure, with major pay jumps and big cash on the line? To fill that knowledge gap, tournament coach and pro Ben Hayles recently collaborated with James "SplitSuit" Sweeney on the new Poker Workbook: Tournament Final Tables. Hayles stopped by the podcast to share details on their new approach to developing poker skills to dominate final tables.
