In 2017, Justin Saliba was a recreational grinder studying poker alongside two friends. Now he's an $11M tournament pro coming back to coach those same two players through a $100K challenge, with crusher Brock Wilson in his corner.
The Origin Story
Back in 2017, Justin Saliba was a recreational player grinding low and mid-stakes online alongside two friends, Jarred “GodsBigToe” Gabin and Shaundle “CrazySixes” Pruitt. They studied together, sweated hands together, and pushed each other to get better.
Then Justin's career took off. Two WSOP bracelets. An $11M live earnings record. One of the top analytical tournament players in the world. But he never forgot where he came from, or who he came up with.
Hero's Journey Season 2 is the reunion. Justin and Brock Wilson take Jarred and Shaundle through a structured $100K profit challenge, and the cameras capture every session, every breakthrough, and every moment where the real work happens.
What moving up stakes actually looks like, in real time:
I think my motivation mostly comes from wanting to give back to two guys who helped me a lot early in my career.

The Players
Two mid-stakes grinders with real ambition and a $100K goal. This is their story.
A full-time IT professional grinding online MTTs on the side, building toward something bigger. Jarred has been one of the most dedicated students in Justin’s orbit, putting in the volume and study time to compete at a level most players only imagine.
His goal isn’t small: build a bankroll and a skill set that lets him step away from the 9-to-5 and compete in the game he loves full time.
Being able to step away from my IT career and still compete in a game I love would be a dream scenario.
Shaundle has been part of Justin’s inner circle since the early days, and the coaching relationship has already produced results. He’s recorded his first profitable chop, moved into higher-stakes events, and is rebuilding his game around the GTO principles Brock and Justin are installing.
The process hasn’t been comfortable, because the best coaching never is. But it’s working.
Having some of the best players in the world review your play is humbling. They see leaks you didn’t even know you had.
