Check it out, now.

No doubt now.

It's the beating of the book podcast, Kill Alexander.

Hope you and your family are staying safe during the global pandemic.

Today on the podcast, Advantage Play.

First, Michael Kaplan, who is the author of several books

and has written a myriad of gambling pieces

for publications like The New York Times,

New York Post, Cigar, aficionado, and Thrillist, among others,

joins me and Bill Krakkenberger to talk about some of the stories that he's

covered, including his latest about the Hollywood poker game that Toby McGuire was a part of.

We'll get into that with Michael, followed by an interview I did a couple years ago that we touched

upon with Michael. This time, Rose Eveleth joins me.

Rose Eveleth was the producer of the 30 for 30 called A Queen of Sorts.

Has everything to do with Phil Ivy and his mysterious Asian counterpart who goes by the name of Kelly.

Fascinating stories.

A little different.

Hope you enjoy it.

Advantage play on today's beating the book podcast.

It's a numbers game with your host, Gil Alexander.

So on those idiots who believe in analytics?

Yes, I am. It is Gil Alexander, live from San Francisco.
