Into all sorts of territory around what it takes to play to your highest levels in poker and life, because it’s all one and the same.

He was kind enough to come on the show which aired this morning. My first interview guest on the podcast, Andrew Lichtenberger, known throughout the poker land as Luck圜hewy. You can spend more time digging deep into what it means to truly play with presence-to feel all the emotions as they come, to relax deeply into your nervous system in times of stress, to bring your unique talents and intuitions to each session you play. You can learn more about how to play aces after the flop to maximize how much money they’ll make, or read more about world affairs if you want to go beyond parroting something you saw a talking head screaming about on a pundit show.Īnd, if you want to perform at your highest levels in poker: No matter what you’re up to, you can always go deeper.

Regardless of the response, it leads to very simple responses with a lack of nuance-the fighter starts bluffing and calling, the runner starts folding and racking up chips, and so on. In the performance realm, you’ll see people all the time resorting to quick hitting tactics at the first sign of emotion. Like when the rec player who is scared of having pocket aces cracked shoves all in for ten times the pot on the flop because they don’t want to make a normal bet and have to play turns and rivers.īut when it doesn’t, a whole lot of money gets torched-and fast. When someone is out of their depth talking about some world issue, but they still feel like they need to say something to make a good showing, they’ll repeat the basic talking points they’ve heard over and over without being able to explain with any nuance what the hell they’re trying to say.

When faced with a situation where they don’t feel adequately prepared to go deep into the topic, they’ll adjust by taking action that will abruptly end the game so as to give themselves the best chance to “win.”
