Clubs Poker with Taylor Crane

Online poker was deemed illegal in the United States ten years ago. Since then, poker has decreased in popularity, then found new invigoration thanks to live streaming and a large volume of bored gamers looking for something to do during the pandemic. Poker is a strategy game that can be played even without the financial element, and Clubs Poker is a free-to-play web-based poker client that grew significantly over the past year.

Taylor Crane is the founder of Clubs Poker, and he joins the show to talk about the past, present, and future of online poker, as well as the engineering around the platform.
