Paul "rungood27" Scaturro opened the action to 5,600 from early position and only "DamnDaniel" made the call in the big blind.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and "DamnDaniel" check-called a bet of 4,100 from Scaturro. On the {j-Spades} turn both players checked their options.

The {8-Hearts} completed the board and "DamnDaniel" led out for 21,150. Without much thought, Scaturro folded.

Now a world poker champion, the 34-year-old says he wants to be a good ambassador for the game, encourage a healthy lifestyle, and show his country the positive aspects of professional poker.

PokerNews' Jesse Fullen recently interviewed the 2022 WSOP Main Event champion one-on-one in an intimate conversation that can be heard on the PokerNews podcast.

Drawing on that interview, this two-part series will look at Jorstad's life before and after the $10 million score that made him a household name and catapulted him to the top of Norway's all-time money list according to The Hendon Mob.
