{img_alt}

In episode 309 of the Top Pair Home Game Poker Podcast, Bruce Briggs and Robbie Strazynski take a deep dive into a couple of home game questions that come up all the time: who should do the dealing and is there a need to tip the dealers and hosts?

The guys also catch you up on all their own home game happenings, with Robbie getting spewy, while Bruce develops a new/old appreciation for the ��Rubik��s Cube of Poker.��

Plus, in honor of the NBA Playoffs, a One Outer that��ll make you want to hedge your bets, at least a little.

Top Pair thanks their sponsors, J Design Cards, the Poker Notes Live mobile app, and BusinessInfoNews, for their support. Be sure to check ��em out!
