With more than 62 million households watching over the first 28 days, The Queen's Gambit is Netflix's biggest scripted limited series to date.
Searches for 'How to play chess' have hit a nine-year peak, and actress Anya Taylor‑Joy has shot to prominence with her portrayal of chess protégé Beth Harmon.
The show's simplistic yet enthralling approach to the game by director Scott Frank has led many to speculate as to what a poker version of the show could achieve.
PokerNews spoke with Woman Grandmaster, two-time United States Women's Champion and poker player Jennifer Shahade who told us what she made of the show.

So could a poker version of The Queen's Gambit boost poker's popularity?
'Absolutely!' said Shahade. 'I think a well-written show around poker would be an amazing tool to boost the popularity of poker. I hope the success of The Queen's Gambit inspires writers to try to work on more content around games.'

Various film depictions of poker often have the legality of poker at their core. Films like Molly's Game and Rounders show poker players evading the police and law enforcement authorities. If a film portrayed poker as legal and regulate, as opposed to underground and illicit, does Shahade think it would be a 'box-office flop'?
'Not necessarily,' said Shahade. 'Maria Konnikova's, 'The Biggest Bluff' is a best selling poker book that centers on intellectual discovery, struggle, and triumph. I think there are lots of ways to create 'stakes' in a poker story that don't center on legality.'

'In poker, having the luxury of a safety net and/or gifted bankroll can be a much more significant boost since money is literally the currency of the game, not just a way to get to tournaments and train.'
The Learning Process
In the show, Beth Harmon learns chess from a very early age in the basement of an orphanage. A she grows up, she learns more and more about the game. She plays against others, studies scenarios, reads strategy books, and discusses particular situations with other players - often those who are better than her - in order to learn how to play and advance her skills.
It was Mike Sexton who famously coined the phrase 'Texas Hold 'Em: the game that takes five minutes to learn and a lifetime to master,' and poker fans will be familiar with all of the methods Harmon uses in order to further her poker career. Could these similarities in the learning process help poker's on-screen portrayal?
'I think it's faster for a new player to reach a competence in poker that allows them to excel in many mixed fields,' said Shahade. 'But to reach a very high level, I think they both require much of the same commitment: play, computer training, rigorous self-analysis, and study of top player games.'

Poker is no stranger to chess, with many poker players having played chess en route to their first tournament win such as Konstantin Maslak, Ivo Donev, Ylon Schwartz, Dominik Panka and Alex Livingston to name but a few. But would these famous faces need to be visible in any poker version of The Queen's Gambit?
'Queen's Gambit left out famous player names for the most part but there were many composite characters. I think some cameos by poker's greatest faces would be amazing.'
