'We believed in ourselves that we could put together the best show in poker and that we would crush the competition.' 'To be honest, we didn't really set any specific goals because we didn't know what was realistic and what we could expect,' Feldman said when asked what goals he set prior to the 2021 launch. There were many challenges along the way, none more daunting than competing locally, and inevitably outside SoCal, against the industry's most established brand - Live at the Bike, a show Feldman helped build. The road to building a YouTube subscriber list of over 150,000 in one year wasn't easy and certainly never was guaranteed.
Exactly 365 days ago, Ryan Feldman and Nick Vertucci launched a new cash game poker show in Los Angeles called Hustler Casino Live that has since completely changed the livestreamed poker landscape.
