What Did You Do Yesterday? with Max Rushden & David O'Doherty · S4 EP5: Richard Herring · 1 Feb 2026 podcast

I once had 5,000 pounds or something in my box, but I didn't win that game.

I stopped playing for about three years after that because it was so disappointing.

But, you know, so sometimes you can have a couple of big wins and then you play a couple of high stakes and you can win 100 quid in a day.

But you can equally, you know, in the last three or four days, I've just...

there was definitely some bad luck and there was a lot of hit, runner, runner, you know, you're going at the right time and then it's Texas Hold'em.

So if they get the two, the two cards they need is the last two cards or two hearts or, you know, eight and four and make a straight or whatever.

I had a lot of that happening against me, but I think also maybe I started chasing a bit and maybe started getting annoyed and started playing a bit differently.

And it's interesting how you can win a lot and then lose a lot, but I'm, you know, I'm still on 120 pounds starting from one pound and,

Yeah, I mean, I think it is that.

I think, you know, for poker and the level of poker I'm at at the moment, the only issue is time, I guess, if you end up wasting loads of your working time on it.

It's, you know, I'm not losing money.

I'm not making loads of money.

I'm enjoying it.

It was a little bit about this, what I just talked about, this kind of early year period where I'm thinking, do I want to push myself back into writing or do I want to, you know... Just die, just die in a few years, yeah.

You know, I can probably, I can make enough money from doing the podcast to keep me going for the moment.

You know, I don't know how long the podcast, the podcast has been going a long time.

We've been making money on it in the last five or six years.

It feels like we're going down on listeners and earning money, but it's still earning nice money.

And so I could probably carry on doing that forever if I want to.

And as a comedian, especially as a creator, you never really have a guaranteed income.
