Whenever Andrew Neeme drops a new poker video, the flock comes running. As one of the "vlogfathers" within the poker content creation space, Neeme's content occupies a special place in many viewers' hearts and minds.
Neeme's most recent installment takes viewers on a journey across multiple weeks, featuring games at ARIA Las Vegas, aboard the WPT Voyage, and, in the underground streets of the New York City poker world. It's a fantastic watch with the usual high production values and, at 36 minutes, a brilliant episode of real poker life.
There's a particular moment in the video where Neeme addresses comments he received on his last post. The video in question showcases Neeme's first-ever session in the hallowed ground that is Bobby's Room at the Bellagio Las Vegas. After seeing numerous comments addressing the possibility that he was playing in a game too big for his bankroll or out of his comfort zone, Neeme offered his thoughts on the matter.
As always, no spoilers - you should hear from Neeme himself - but let's just say he does not agree with those notions and sets the record straight on where he stands when it comes to stepping out of your comfort zone and how real growth can be found in those moments.
It's a thoughtful moment from someone that clearly has a depth of wisdom when it comes to understanding risk and the need to push yourself beyond what feels comfortable – an outlook that people of all walks of life could benefit from hearing.
