What's the most "oh no, my steak too juicy, my lobster too buttery" complaint you see people make?



Get ready for what’s gonna be a VERY unpopular opinion. If it’s true that Maurice’s backer chose (or was forced ) to stop backing him, Maurice’s makeup figure should have been wiped clean. I’ve been in both sides of staking for 30 years. If the backer chooses to stop backing the player, the makeup figure is washed clean. This is regular practice in the poker world.




When a girl flakes and shows back up. You don’t have to ask about it.


I think the worst advice mid stakes pros give is on bankroll management. They are too conservative Take shots, take a little more of yourself in a big spot tourney. Play a little bigger. You won’t always be successful but you will be better the next time you shot take. You will be better in your normal stakes. Your body and your brain should learn from these experiences so you are more prepared for them the next time. Being scared to fail means you are usually afraid to succeed Obviously, you have to have discipline to stop at a point and have a fail back plan (fall back plan) This doesn’t mean go all in on a tournament or nose bleeds, but take shots at climbing the ladder.



this guy won a World Series of Poker bracelet, then became a quant at Susquehanna (a firm with over $500B in market making). here he breaks down the decision process behind every trade of theirs: incomplete information, time, and EV. this clip is worth 3 minutes of your day.
