#222 David & Amanda Botfeld: Daddy/Daughter Poker Duo

Today I’m delighted to be joined by dual guests… the exceptionally talented father/daughter duo who finished 3rd in the Tag Team Event at the 2021 Fall WSOP… Amanda and David Botfeld.

Amanda is a multiple time guest on CPG who has been published in the Wall Street Journal, Huffington Post, & the Los Angeles Times and is the author of “A Girl’s Guide to Poker”.

David Botfeld has seemingly been successful at most things he’s tried his hand at… including grinding cards in California back in the legendary 60’s & 70’s.

When Amanda first approached me about having her and her dad on the podcast my first reaction was, “Well, what’s the worst that could happen?”
Ahh.. always priming myself for the downside.

Instead of realizing the downside, instead the conversation you’re about to listen to was exceptionally valuable to myself as a human being.

David is a very generous human being chalk full of wisdom he’s happy to share with you, his daughter is a chip off the old block, and it’s very easy for me to understand why their family has had such outsized success in whatever venture they undertake.

Now, without any further ado, I bring to you the Daddy/Daughter Tag Team of Amanda & David Botfeld.
