Faraz Jaka Expands Poker Knowledge to Options Trading

One of the poker players known best for taking poker winnings and investing in new businesses is Faraz Jaka. He is always looking for opportunities to invest and grow his poker earnings in the diverse business world.

His latest venture is the participation in Dough.com. Jaka is a featured trader on the site.

Dough is a trading platform designed to teach newcomers to the industry how to trade options. Those with an interest in trading but no experience will find a tutorial-based website that features the very basics of the industry, a trade interface to help with strategizing and viewing profit/loss figures, and traders of all levels who teach as they trade.

The company understands that many of the same features required of a successful poker player also make a good trader. Dough took that information and marketed its new company to the World Series of Poker Main Event this year, offering an “Invest in Your Summer” promotion and giveaway. Entrants had the chance to win $10,000, iPad Minis, and other prizes.
