Hello friends, welcome back to the show. My guest today is Stephen Bridges. He's a professional

gambler and mostly legal card counter. If you've seen the movie 21, you'll know that it's

possible to count cards whilst playing Blackjack in a casino to actually beat the house.

But this isn't just limited to the movies, Stephen is part of a team who takes on the biggest

casinos in the world, using hardcore maths, disguises and secret signals to win big.

Expect to learn the details of how a team of players is needed to take on a casino,

how Stephen chooses which casinos to count at, which are the best and worst places to play Blackjack

in Vegas, the most money Stephen has made and lost in a single session, how he deals with losing

absurd amounts of money, just how difficult it is to actually count cards without getting caught.

And much more. I love Stephen's YouTube channel and the algorithm

served it up to me and I full on God Addicted and invested into his team's little missions

that they do out all over the world to try and win hundreds of thousands of dollars.

And I like the fact that we get to see behind the scenes of what it's actually like today.

Very different sort of episode, but this is super, super fun. So yeah, enjoy this one.

This episode is brought to you by Nomatic. No, literally it's actually brought to you by Nomatic.

Whenever I'm on the road, Nomatic is the luggage that I use. It's got a lifetime warranty

and some of the best technology I've ever seen. It's so crazy what happens when you upgrade to

proper good quality, highly engineered luggage, whether you're taking a holiday or a weekend trip,

they have everything that you need. For short trips, when you're taking a laptop with you,

their carry on pro is an absolute game changer. It keeps your laptop safe and secure whilst also

giving you enough room for all the clothes you've got. The bags aren't just sexy looking,

they're simply designed, not over engineered and will literally last you a lifetime
