What did Eisenhower, Bradley, Patton, Macarthur, . . . and many other World War 2, United States Army Generals have in common?
They were all winning poker players.
It is not surprising that people who could come out on top in a military battle, or war, could also come out on top in a poker game.
Both involve competing in fields of constantly changing uncertainty in which your opponents can lie, deceive and cheat.
Both involve intense mental concentration and endurance for several hours or more at a time; constantly calculating probabilities about uncertainties; reading your opponents; deceiving your opponents; and, always knowing that your opponents could be deceiving and even cheating you.
WINNING GAMBLERS
To be a winning gambler you need to know 4 things.
1: When you are being
deceived or cheated.
2: When the odds
are in your favour.
3: Money management.
4: Yourself.
Or, alternatively, only gamble against people who you do win against – people worse than you.
