Summary

As the 2025 World Series of Poker heats up Las Vegas and leaves Nikki Limo otherwise detained this week, we revisit that crazy Monday in June of 2022 when Nikki competed in the 53rd Annual World Series of Poker, her first-ever World Series of Poker competition. By the end of the tournament, she placed 4th in a pool of 5,715 entries, winning $116,568.00 and setting the poker world on fire. How, you may ask, did she arrive at this astonishing accomplishment just a year after starting to take poker seriously? This week's classic episode of Sh*t is all about that amazing journey. Enjoy.
