Chapter 1: What is Robbie Jade Lew's sleep schedule like?
I don't want the day to end.
Chapter 2: How did Robbie Jade Lew fall in love with poker?
All right, guys, Robbie J. Liu here today. The latest podcast I've ever filmed.
Really? Yeah. That's actually really interesting because it's pretty early for me.
8 p.m. is early for you?
Chapter 3: What does Robbie Jade Lew think about cash games vs tournaments?
Yeah, it's pretty early for me. I'm like, oh, let's get this night started or the day, really.
So you're a partier. You're a night owl.
I'm just a night owl. I've always known that since I've been young. I was told that it was really hard to get me to bed. And it was one of those things like I just love living, I guess. In a way, this is what I've told myself. I love living. I don't want the day to be over.
I feel that.
Chapter 4: What are Robbie Jade Lew's insights on the future of poker?
So I do this thing where I like go into my day bed as like the segue into the final bed. And then I end up crashing there anyways, because I don't actually like going to bed. I do enjoy sleep once I get to sleep, because it's also kind of hard to get me up. But it's just it's a weird thing. I don't want the day to end.
Wow. So what's the average time you're sleeping like?
Um, I have like this, I've decided I'm on a different sleep cycle. I've actually gone to sleep therapy for this, like where you actually have to sleep inside of a sleep clinic and be like connected to all these notes to figure out what the hell's wrong with you.
And according to that sleep expert, a physician, actually, he actually informed me that some people are just on a different cyclical cycle. Um, I don't even know if that's proper English that I said right there, but that like not every human was meant to be in a 24 hour cycle. And for me, he said, mine's it's like more closer to like a 34. Yeah.
Whoa.
So it's just, it's completely off. Like I'll go through like periods of time where I can sleep from like nine to 11 hours. I'm not kidding. And then just be awake for like 25.
Holy crap.
Not be tired at all when I'm awake.
They say like when you're awake for 24 hours, you lose some brain function.

Chapter 5: How does AI influence poker and job creation?
But yeah, I think with cash games, there's a certain type that prefers that over tournament play, but really the best players are the ones that can do both.
Yeah. How do you feel about people that win a big hand and then they dip out of the table? Because I see people get pissed off about that.
I mean, those type of people just won't be invited back as often as they want to be. And I think that there is a certain type of like hidden sort of level of respect that everybody has to kind of, they're secretly signing up for when they're invited to a game. And look, if you want a lot of money and you have no expectations of being back, you can be that guy.
But one thing I have learned about the poker community, because it is relatively small versus other industries, is that word gets around. So, you know, whether you owe someone money,
or you you made like a like a disrespectful move against somebody like people do hear about it people talk and you know there's a lot of rumors of course they're not always accurately yeah um you know portrayed you're not always accurately portrayed there's a lot of like lies out there but there's just enough smoke where um you might have to explain yourself and in another game or you just might realize that you're not getting the invitation that you were getting before um and and that's really shitty if this is your profession
Yeah, well, there's a lot of big YouTube channels that cover drama, poker drama.
Yeah, they do.
And they have a lot of power and influence.
Yeah, I had my moments with them, and I would see them at a certain meet and greet or something, and I've had Alex Duvall come up and kind of apologize and sort of explain to me that that's just his MO, and that's how he navigates through the poker world. And look, we are all kind of like... I mean, we're all a victim to it a little bit, but we also are...

Chapter 6: What challenges do women face in the poker industry?
Chapter 7: How does Robbie Jade Lew's biopharmaceutical background influence her poker career?
So you probably hit the tables late while everyone else is tired and you're wide awake.
I'm actually the person that's always the last to leave. I really am. I'm like, I hate to say this and you know, you'd never want to be the last person to leave a party. Like I'm always the last person. I probably am the only reason the game ends when I decide to leave. Cause I'll never leave when I'm winning. But I also won't leave when I'm losing because that's like a known thing.
You don't usually leave when you're losing if you're like stuck or whatnot. It's usually the people that are stuck that are still hanging with me. But I will – it has nothing to do with how much I win. I will win. I will get lucky in three pots and most like – intelligent and disciplined human beings will leave. I won't, I'll just stay.
Because for me, it's not about like how much I leave with, it's just for love of the game. And if there's one thing I realized about me, I just love poker so much, it's hard to get me out.
Wow, so you're just a fan of the actual game.
I just am. And it's one of those really weird things where like, You know, I lived a and I guess most people know this now. I'm not like your typical like just I've been playing poker since I was like in my teens and now I'm in my 20s and I've decided to drop out of college and become like this poker player. I mean, those guys have like the years of experience behind them.
I'm the type of person that actually had a completely different career in this biopharmaceutical field. biotech industry where I thrived enough to have enough of a bankroll where I could finally see what I do that I love. And really, if the pandemic never happened, I wouldn't even be playing poker full time like I do right now.
It really was that it gave me the opportunity to kind of hone in on my hobby, one being poker. And I realized that, like, I've lived most of my life doing, you know, what made me money, which I actually did enjoy. I mean, I did pick a career. I did enjoy. It's always fun to be doing really well in a career. So like you, it's, it's hard, but ultimately it was a golden handcuffs type of situation.
You know, it's really nice once you buy your house and you have everything you need, like, you're kind of like, okay. I felt a little stuck and the pandemic happened at the right time for me where I realized that like, huh, well, you know what they always say, if you're doing what you love, there's a way to monetize it. And I wasn't really thinking about monetizing it.
