Casting 6–8 Players for a New Poker Docu-Series

Casting 6–8 Players for a New Poker Docu-Series

Hey 2p2,

I’m launching a YouTube docu-series designed to bring something back to poker content that’s been missing for a long time:
human stories, real emotion, and the feeling that poker is fun to watch again.

To do that, I’m casting 6–8 poker players for Season 1, which will be 12 episodes long.
Each player will get 10–20 minutes of screen time per episode so viewers can follow their journey in depth.

Poker is the backdrop.
But the show is about people.

The Vision: Make Poker Fun to Watch Again

We want to create a series that even non-poker fans get hooked on.

Not because they understand ranges, but because they understand people:

People chasing dreams

People rebuilding

People balancing family, work, and ambition

People dealing with fear, setbacks, and breakthroughs

People trying to grow into the best version of themselves

Poker is the arena where all that plays out.

This isn’t about solver talk or “look at this sick bluff.”
It’s about the journey, the personalities, the struggles, the wins, and the heart behind the game.

Something real.
Something relatable.
Something fun.

Filming Style

Entirely self-shot (phone is perfect)

I’ll guide exactly what to film

I’ll handle editing, storytelling, and shaping each arc

Authentic > polished

Real > scripted

Each episode will weave together multiple player stories in a way that feels emotional, exciting, and bingeable.

Who I’m Looking For

You can be:

A cash grinder

An MTT warrior

A PLO sicko

A live reg

An online hermit

A part-timer chasing a dream

A pro, an up-and-comer, or a serious hobbyist

Skill level doesn’t matter.
Your story does.

You should be:

Relatable

Honest

Comfortable sharing your life outside poker

Willing to show your highs, lows, grind, and growth

Someone viewers can root for

---

What the Show Will Highlight

Your goals

Your routines

Your lifestyle

Your fears and challenges

Your mindset

Your identity outside the game

Your journey across all 12 episodes

Poker is the hook.
You are the reason they watch.

How to Apply

Reply here or PM me with:

Who you are

What you play

Why your story is relatable

Why people might root for you

What makes you a piece of “fun poker” again

I don't care if you're a 18 table 12 hour grinder, or a 6 table 4 hour grinder who hits the clubs every night!

Let’s create something that puts life back into poker content — something real, entertaining, emotional, and human.

Something that reminds people why we fell in love with this game in the first place.

I think you missed the - sign in front of the $100. I'm paying out of my pocket to make this happen for the poker community with 0 guarantee of ever seeing a return on my money or time invested. In doing this because I think poker needs better content
