Life Outside Poker is a new podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 18th episode, Connor speaks with author and psychologist Maria Konnikova about her family leaving Russia to come to the US, writing her first story in kindergarten, being mentored by Steven Pinker at Harvard, meeting Erik Seidel for the first time and her 2020 bestseller The Biggest Bluff that explored her poker journey.
Konnikova, a PokerStars ambassador, also talked about her research for an upcoming book into cheating in poker and other games, as well as game integrity rule changes implemented at EPT Barcelona that Konnikova said needed to go even further.
"I think what PokerStars has done is amazing. I think you need to go a step further and not have any electronics anywhere on the table," said Konnikova. "Like, I think phones need to be on the floor, in your bag."
"I would actually also ban sunglasses because ... there's so much technology that (that can enable cheating)."

Three-ways to a turn with the board reading K♦8♠6♠4♣, Luther Tran led for 9,500 from the big blind. Byung Shin, who opened the pot from under the gun, put in the call next to act. With the action on Jonathan Newman in the cutoff, he decided to raise to 40,000. Tran tanked for some time before he decided to lay it down, while Shin called again.
On the 7♠ river, Shin deliberated for a while before he decided to lead for 40,000 and Newman did not take long before he put in the call. Shin tabled A♠4♠ for the rivered nut flush as he dragged a large pot multiway.
