Doug Polk News
Doug Polk is a professional poker player, content creator, and cardroom owner. He has an impressive legacy as a poker player, working his way up from low stakes to become one of the best heads-up No-Limit Hold’em players in the world. Despite only dabbling in tournaments, he also counts three World Series of Poker bracelets among his accomplishments.
However, he’s become even more famous in the poker world for his content creation than his sterling playing skills. With more than 400,000 followers and counting on his YouTube channel, Polk has become a go-to source for analysis of any major poker story. Polk’s deep knowledge of the industry and willingness to call out anyone or anything he sees as a bad actor makes him a trusted source for many.
He is also the founder of Upswing Poker (now owned by ClubWPT Gold) and co-owner of The Lodge, a social poker club in Round Rock, Texas.
