The people behind DCP

MEET THE DADS.

Three dads from Alberta, Canada. We are not poker pros. We are longtime players with families, jobs and real lives who wanted a better place to talk poker, study together and enjoy the game with people who get it.

Dads Crush Poker founders Doug, Adam and Danny
DCP Founder

Doug

The Live Veteran
15+ years around poker

A longtime live and online player balancing poker with life as a dad. Doug brings years of table experience, a calm perspective and the kind of real-world poker conversations DCP was built around.

Away from the tables

If Doug is not working or playing poker, you can usually catch him spending time with his young family, watching college football or the NFL, or zipping around Alberta on his motorbike.

DCP Founder

Adam

The Online Grinder
20+ years around poker

Primarily an online player with roughly two decades of live and online experience. Adam helped build DCP around a simple idea: poker players with jobs, families and limited time should still have a serious community to study, compete and improve with.

Away from the tables

Adam has two young boys at home, so if he is not playing poker he is most likely spending time with them — at the park, teaching them how to ice-skate (hockey is big in Alberta — Go Oilers!), or watching the NFL while crushing fantasy football.

DCP Founder

Danny

All-In on the Game
20+ years on and off

Danny has played poker on and off for roughly two decades and is currently the most active grinder of the three. Mainly an online player, he brings energy, hand discussion and a constant drive to keep learning and pushing the group forward.

Away from the tables

When Danny is not playing poker, he is spending time with his family or diving into the other hobbies he is passionate about — golfing, hunting and smoking meat.

Why we built DCP

Poker is better with a team.

Dads Crush Poker is for recreational players and grinders who want to improve without the ego. Talk hands, debate strategy, join study sessions, climb the DCP ranks and share the ride with a community that understands poker has to fit around real life.
