Meet Alec Torelli
I’m a professional poker player with $2.7M+ in live tournament winnings, as well as an investor, entrepreneur, and keynote speaker.
After 20 years competing in the world’s biggest games, I’ve learned that poker is more than a card game — it’s a laboratory for decision-making.
Now I share those lessons with others who want to think more clearly, manage risk, and use practical frameworks to make better choices.
