Espen Jorstad at the 2022 WSOP Main Event

Before he was Norway's first World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event champion, Espen Uhlen Jorstad was a gamer and part-time poker player who cared more about playing video games and partying than he did chasing his dreams and aspirations.

Now a world poker champion, the 34-year-old says he wants to be a good ambassador for the game, encourage a healthy lifestyle, and show his country the positive aspects of professional poker.

PokerNews' Jesse Fullen recently interviewed the 2022 WSOP Main Event champion one-on-one in an intimate conversation that can be heard on the PokerNews podcast.

Drawing on that interview, this two-part series will look at Jorstad's life before and after the $10 million score that made him a household name and catapulted him to the top of Norway's all-time money list according to The Hendon Mob.
