Molly Bloom recently appeared on the popular The Diary of a CEO podcast with host Steven Bartlett where she shared further details about the infamous Hollywood home games that put her freedom and life in jeopardy.

Dubbed the "Poker Princess," Bloom helped run high-stakes poker games a decade ago involving A-list celebrities such as Tobey Maguire and Ben Affleck, along with billionaire entrepreneurs and investors.

Along the way, her life was threatened by mobsters, and she nearly ended up behind bars over how the game was run.
