Building a $200M Bootstrapped Chess Empire with Chess.com CEO Erik Allebest
What was said
"We recently launched Gambit at gambit.com, which is our poker um site, and you can play Gambit on your phone as well. But we're doing poker in a different way, too. We're bringing the chess playbook, which is like poker for ratings. How good are you really?"
Erik Allebest says Chess.com has launched Gambit, a poker product, and is applying chess-style ratings to emphasise skill measurement beyond buy-ins. He adds the company is developing other classic games with a small team alongside the core chess platform.
