Episode 100: Tony Dunst

Before he was behind the mic on the World Poker Tour, Tony was just another online grinder trying to survive. He went from living broke in China with a $2,800 bankroll, to getting banned from Australia, to waking up one morning after Black Friday completely broke — and somehow, turned it all around.

This episode dives into the real story behind the suit:

🎙 How Tony went from staking makeup to hair & makeup on the WPT
💸 What it feels like to be $300K in makeup — and finally dig out
🧳 The insane story of getting banned from Australia
♠️ Why “not caring too much” resulted in a breakout 2016

Now he’s one of poker’s most recognizable voices... but the journey there is anything but smooth.

If you love stories about redemption, risk, and what it really takes to make it in poker, this one’s a must-watch.
