A 29 minute documentary about Greg Lavery (a.k.a Captain Zeebo), a former McDonald's employee who made millions of dollars playing online poker before suffering a sudden mental breakdown.

This is the first installment of an ongoing web-series meant to explore the underground world of online poker professionals. Each installment will feature a different character and explore a different aspect of the online poker world. For more information, please visit the official site here: deucescracked.com/robusto

Shot by Michael Epple on the Panasonic HDX-900, I acted as producer, director and editor.

    Great Documentary. Did they ever talk about what they think triggered his breakdown? Beautiful cinematography too. I look forward to watching the next episode.

    There was a history of bi-polar in Greg's family, but they never specifically pinpointed the cause of the breakdown. The implication I took was that the isolating lifestyle of an online poker pro was a contributing factor.
