Since recording this episode back in 2018, Phil Hellmuth has won two more World Series of Poker Championships increasing his total to 17. When we talked to him, he was already well ahead of all other players in the history of the game. He has now further distanced himself from the competition easily answering the question of who is the greatest tournament poker player of all-time. This was one of our all-time most listened to interviews and we hope you enjoy listening to the "Poker Brat" as much as we enjoyed talking with him. See the show notes below ...   ORIGINAL SHOW NOTES Nobody has won more World Series of Poker championships than Phil Hellmuth Jr.  He won his 15th WSOP Bracelet in the summer of 2018, which puts him far ahead of Phil Ivey, Johnny Chan, and Doyle Brunson (who all have 10 bracelets). Hellmuth also holds the record for most cash finishes and most final table appearances at the World Series of Poker. In 1989, the 24-year old Hellmuth became the youngest person ever to win the WSOP Main Event when he defeated legendary Johnny Chan. “The Poker” Brat as he is known for his colorful and competitive personality, was elected to the Poker Hall of Fame in 2007. He has also written a New York Times best-seller (“Play Poker Like the Pros”), as well as his autobiography (“Poker Brat”). Hellmuth also is very active in raising funds for charities. He has raised more than $50 million in his lifetime for charitable causes and organizations.

Annie Duke is a World Series of Poker champion, having won more than $4 million in tournament poker. In 2004, she won the World Series of Poker bracelet and is the only woman to have won the World Series of Poker Tournament of Champions.  In 2009, Annie was a contestant on Celebrity Apprentice, where she took 2nd and raised more than $700,000 for her chosen charity. She is the author of Thinking in Bets, a national bestseller, and Quit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away. Annie was awarded a National Science Foundation Fellowship to study Cognitive Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, and she recently completed her PhD. She is also the co-founder of The Alliance for Decision Education, a non-profit whose mission is to improve lives by empowering students through decision skills education.  In this episode, we discuss the following: Quitting isn't a bad thing. With whatever we're doing, don't be afraid to say, “I don't love it” or “I loved it, but I no longer do” or “I still love it, but I think there might be this other thing that I love more.” All decisions are probabilistic, so it's important to continually sample.Try a bunch of stuff, figure out what you like, and then keep trying a bunch of stuff. It's hard for us to leave paths without feeling like we've failed. Luckily for Annie, she was forced to try other things when she got sick during her PhD program. And then sampling poker led her to becoming a world champion. Then she realized she liked writing books, giving talks, and running a foundation. Just because something survives a fact check doesn't mean it's true…true in the sense that it's the right model of the facts. If the stock market drops 3,000 points in one day, people might say it's the largest drop in history. But that would only be true in terms of total points, not true in terms of percentage. Given that every decision we make is a forecast, the quality of our decisions are only as good as the way that we've modeled the information that is inputted into the forecast. Annie has developed two questions that are fantastic for modeling facts:  “Out of how many?” and “In comparison to what?” By asking ourselves these two questions we will improve our models and make Annie happy.

As a high school student, in the next few years, I'll make some major life decisions about where I'll go to college and whether I'll riddle myself with decades of student debt. How will I make the best decision? My guest today, Dr. Maria Konnikova, had a similar question about her own life. How do you assess a situation and decide the best option for yourself? And, if Fate pulls a fast one on you, how do you react accordingly? In search of answers to these questions, Dr. Konnikova, a journalist and Ph.D. in psychology, tackled the game that best simulates our constant decision-making in life. And what is that game? It might surprise you. It's poker. For her NYT bestselling 2020 book, The Biggest Bluff, Dr. Konnikova took a deep dive into poker and ended up becoming an international poker champion and winner of over $300,000 in tournament earnings. In this episode of Aiming for the Moon, we'll discuss what this taught her about decision-making and how we can apply these skills to our own lives.Topics -Why poker?Games of complete information vs games of incomplete information and how they simulate lifeLife skills gleaned from pokerThe process of decision-making vs the result of the decisionWhat is the biggest bluff?What books have had an impact on you?What advice do you have for teenagers?Dr. Maria Konnikova is the author of Mastermind and The Confidence Game. She is a regular contributing writer for The New Yorker, and has written for The Atlantic, The New York Times, Slate, The New Republic, The Paris Review, The Wall Street Journal, Salon, The Boston Globe, Scientific American, Wired, and Smithsonian, among many other publications. Her writing has won numerous awards, including the 2019 Excellence in Science Journalism Award from the Society of Personality and Social Psychology. While researching The Biggest Bluff, Maria became an international poker champion and the winner of over $300,000 in tournament earnings. Maria also hosts the podcast The Grift from Panoply Media and is currently a visiting fellow at NYU's School of Journalism. Her podcasting work earned her a National Magazine Award nomination in 2019. Maria graduated from Harvard University and received her Ph.D. in Psychology from Columbia University.

The sunglasses are coming off. Pro poker player Danieal Negreanu is unapologetically transparent from his game strategy to his vegan diet. He’s won over $42 million in two decades of poker playing, and he’s not even close to folding. Daniel made the switch first to a vegetarian and eventually to a vegan diet in his early twenties when his casino lifestyle started to catch up with him. He claims the way he eats now gives him the focus and stamina to endure twelve to fourteen-hour games and multi-day tournaments. He also challenges others to shift their perspective about eating animals—why do we love dogs and eat cows? From psychology to poker strategy, Las Vegas eats to travel foods, this conversion is a delight.   What we discuss in this episode:   - The importance of making a gradual transition to plant-based   - How he started playing poker at 16 years old    - Fundamentals and strategy of poker   - Changing perspectives around the “traditional” way of eating   - What he eats to stay energized and alert during long games   - GTFO It’s Vegan online market   - HappyCow app   - Melanie Joy’s book, Why We Love Dogs, Eat Pigs, and Wear Cows   Connect with Switch4Good - YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ2toqAmlQpwR1HDF_KKfGg   - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/Switch4Good/   - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/switch4good/   - Twitter - https://twitter.com/Switch4GoodOrg   - Website - https://switch4good.org/

(04:51) - Explaining what makes a decision good or bad (6:36) - On how memory creep impacts our view of Hilary Clinton’s 2016 campaign (11:30) - On the use of a knowledge tree to inform decision making (16:59) - Looking at Pete Carrol’s controversial decision in the Super Bowl   (26:16) - On founders falling into a trap around pricing their product (38:08) - When to make informed decisions and follow a process

My guest today is Annie Duke, who was previously one of the best poker players in the world and is now a renowned public speaker and best-selling author. If anyone has the perfect background to discuss decision-making, it’s Annie. She pursued a Ph.D. in psychology at UPenn before starting her poker career, and when she stepped away from poker in 2012, she was the leading money winner among women in the World Series of Poker. Our conversation today focuses on both her books, Thinking in Bets and How to Decide: Simple Tools for Making Better Choices. We discuss both causes of bad decisions and ways to make better ones.  She explains the issue with analyzing decisions based on outcome (which she calls resulting) and uses real decisions made by Pete Carroll, Nick Saban, and Bill Belichick as examples. We also discuss best practices for group decision making from the standpoint of a coaching staff or front office when scouting or drafting a player. Show Notes: (1:20) — Episode begins with Annie’s background from UPenn to becoming a professional poker player (7:30) — Explanation of resulting, her term for focusing on the outcome over the process, with the Pete Carroll play call in the Super Bowl that led to Russell Wilson’s game-losing interception as an example (28:50) — Best habits for group decision-making from the point-of-view of a Head Coach or General Manager (46:40) — The importance of using precise verbiage and percentages when making forecasts (56:30) — End of episode questions End of Episode Questions: 1. What’s 1 book every coach should read? The Success Equation: Untangling Skill and Luck in Business, Sports, and Investing by Michael Mauboussin 2. Who is one person you’d want to hear as a guest on this podcast? Michael Mauboussin 3. What’s one area you’re looking to improve in over the next year? Limit negative self-talk and be kinder to herself 4. What’s popular advice you hear people say that you think is wrong? You make your own luck 5. What advice do you have for young coaches who are listening to this? Focus on improving your decision-making process 6. What’s the darkest moment you experienced professionally and how did you overcome it? Being sick while finishing her graduate program at UPenn Favorite Quotes: “Whenever you do something that’s unusual, you’re risking idiot, and most people would prefer to risk bad luck than idiot. If I hand it off to Marshawn Lynch, my risk is people say I have bad luck. If I choose a pass play and it doesn’t work out, even if it’s the better decision, and it doesn’t work out, I’m risking idiot. People don’t want to risk that because that’s career risk.” “Here’s the interesting thing about Belichick: When you look at the early part of his career, he wasn’t doing those things on fourth down. He’s really famous for going for it on fourth down in places people don’t understand. Guess what? The first few years of his career, he wasn’t doing that. It wasn’t until he had a ring when his job wasn’t at risk anymore…that he started to make those fourth down calls.”  “The goal of having a bunch of people to come in and give their perspectives is to inform everybody of the different ways you can model the data you have, the different ways that you can think about it and view it and the different perspectives you have. And then the person who can ultimately decide (like the GM) then is now the best informed to make a decision.” “This is step one: when you’re thinking about do you want to recruit a player, and you’re eliciting the opinions of those on the coaching staff, make sure they’re giving them to you independently and that they don’t know your opinion.” “The things that matter is not so much the things you agree on, but the differences of opinion. To be a good part of a team, it doesn’t mean that being on the same page means agreeing.”

Flipping 100 houses is less “risky” than flipping 1 house.The first time I heard this a few years ago, it blew my mind.But it’s 100% true.And it’s just one crazy takeaway from this 2-hour interview I held with Annie Duke.Annie is a World Series Poker champion with a Ph.D. in cognitive science.She’s an author, a decision strategist, and a consultant.And I only meant to spend 45 minutes talking with her.But the stuff she was sharing was just too good.We dug into questions like…How do you know if you’ve made a GOOD decision? (Spoiler alert… it has nothing to do with the OUTCOME of the decision…)What’s the CORRECT way to think about risk and probability? (This is HUGE for real estate investors…)How do you ACTUALLY learn from your mistakes? (Most of us are learning the WRONG lessons…)And those are just a few examples.You’re also going to learn…Why a lot of the things we think are mistakes actually aren’t, and a lot of things we think aren’t mistakes actually are...The “poker concept” that explains why appraisers hassle flippers on resale values…Why losing money on a deal messes us up mentally (and how to resolve it)…How to break out of analysis paralysis (by the end of this episode)…The 2 things that determine how your life turns out…Why it’s important to focus on the “set” rather than the “individual….”Why “winning or losing” is irrelevant to good decision making…And more.This episode will change HOW YOU THINK.And there's a HUGE surprise at the end...

Maria is the author of two New York Times best-sellers, The Confidence Game (Viking/Penguin 2016), winner of the 2016 Robert P. Balles Prize in Critical Thinking, and Mastermind: How to Think Like Sherlock Holmes (Viking/Penguin, 2013), an Anthony and Agatha Award finalist. She is a regular contributing writer for The New Yorker, and has written for the Atlantic, the New York Times, Slate, the New Republic, the Paris Review, the Wall Street Journal, Salon, the Boston Globe, the Scientific American, WIRED, and Smithsonian, among many other publications. Her writing has won numerous awards, including the 2019 Excellence in Science Journalism Award from the Society of Personality and Social Psychology. While researching The Biggest Bluff, Maria became an international poker champion and the winner of over $300,000 in tournament earnings. This was a fascinating conversation, unpacking Maria’s rise from somebody who didn’t know the basics of poker to national poker champion, and what she learned along the way about not only poker but life more broadly. We unpack lots in this conversation, including: 1 - the role of chance and skill in life 2 - the learning process Maria followed to go from zero to hero on the poker circuit in under a year 3 - the benefit of tackling problems or pursuits with a different perspective and tool-set Topics Discussed: How a run of bad luck inspired the book John von Neumann’s Theory of Game and Economic Behaviour Parallels between poker and life Stoicism Chance v skill Working with poker legend, Erik Seidel Bringing a unique toolset to poker What Maria’s grandmother thought about her becoming a poker player Maria’s first roll of the dice What she learned to go from zero to hero How Maria learns The value of a beginner’s mind, and “I don’t know” High leverage meta-skills for life and poker Dealing with the sudden spotlight and magazine covers What Maria learned about herself from playing poker The role of deliberate practice Following your passions The ludic fallacy The value of fiction Show Notes: Twitter: @mkonnikova Instagram: @grlnamedmaria Web: mariakonnikova.com Get the book: https://amzn.to/2V7ML3V NOFilter Media: www.nofilter.media K-Startup Grand Challenge: https://www.k-startupgc.org/ --- Listen to Future Squared on Apple Podcasts  goo.gl/sMnEa0 Also available on: Spotify, Google Podcasts, TuneIn, Stitcher and Soundcloud Twitter: twitter.com/steveglaveski Instagram: instagram.com/@thesteveglaveski Future Squared: futuresquared.xyz Steve Glaveski: steveglaveski.com Medium: medium.com/@steveglaveski Steve's book: employeetoentrepreneur.io NEW Facebook group:facebook.com/groups/futuresquared/ Watch on YouTube: bit.ly/2N77FLx

I can't believe I'm publishing the 100th Episode of this podcast that I started in the summer of 2017. My first guest ever was Ralph Acampora! I mean, how could it not be right? Since then I've had the privilege of interviewing Portfolio Managers, Traders, Analysts, Best Selling Authors and even a World Series of Poker Champion! People all over the world have approached me how much they've learned from listening to the podcasts. It's been an amazing experience for me all around. Since it's Episode 100, how can I not invite Ralph back on the show to talk markets? In this episode Ralph describes the recent trip that him and I took to India. We both had an awesome time and are blown away by the interest out there for Technical Analysis. It really is incredible. He thinks we're going to see breakouts in Gold and Silver soon but that's not necessarily bad for stocks. Both can rise together.  I always enjoy my conversations with Ralph. He has great old stories about technicians that we're too young to remember or even know about. He's good with giving credit to some of his predecessors that probably don't get the recognition these days that they deserve. Louise Yamada for example gets a lot of credit for the phrase, "The bigger the base, the higher in space". But she'll tell you that she got that from her boss and mentor Alan Shaw. And Alan will tell you that he learned it from his boss.  So I think it's important to remember the ones who came before us. I would argue that over 95% of what you see me do, say and talk about comes from something I learned from my colleagues and/or predecessors. I didn't make any of this stuff up. The credit goes to all of them and in most cases they have all been guests on this podcast. I want the world to be able to learn from the people that I learned from and continue to learn from every day. Ralph is a great example, obviously!

In a week where markets hit new all-time highs, Dan gets to the question everyone asks with each new record. “You all know where I'm gonna come down on this.” With this high-water mark, it's a good time to reflect on the principles of investing, from risk management, to value, to growth. Dan gets into the weeds on the literature of investor behavior – and the findings by DALBAR on individual investing performance, which while never changing year after year, are always shocking.

''Life is more like Poker than chess.'' - @annieduke What's going on guys? Back once again for a very special episode! We've been speaking to former world series of Poker champion Annie Duke. Annie's story is so fascinating. Originally Annie began her journey flourishing academically. Majoring in english and psychology, before pursuing a doctorate in cognitive linguistics. It all looked set for a nice life in academic circles... But everything changed for Annie, when she got sick and needed to find a way to make some money. This led her to poker. The combination of a cognitive psychology base, Annie's own characteristics and ''luck'' as Annie says, led her to become the 2004 World series of Poker champion. Annie's book is called 'Thinking in bets: Making Smarter Decisions when you don't have all the facts.' And I can testify and say it's a fantastic read.

In 2004, she bested a field of 234 players to win her first World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet. The same year, she triumphed in the $2 million winner-take-all, invitation-only WSOP Tournament of Champions. Prior to becoming a professional poker player, Annie was awarded the National Science Foundation Fellowship.

On this week's show, James and Aaron Brabham chat with Ylon Schwartz: poker champion, chess master, and gamer extraordinaire.   He is without a doubt one of the most intriguing characters you're ever likely to encounter...   College Dropout Who Has Never Had a Real Job Wins $8 Million in Cash at the Poker Table...   If you watched the 2008 World Series of Poker, you may remember Ylon Schwartz and his trademark curly locks...   The day before the championship, Ylon was drowning in debt and in trouble with the law back in his hometown of New York City. From rock bottom, he redirected years of frustrations about money and women, channeling it towards winning the game...   ... and walked out of the Las Vegas Rio Casino with a cool $3.7 million in his pocket.   In fact, Ylon has won an estimated $8 million in cash, just from playing poker. Not bad for a college dropout who has never held a job.     Today, he's one of the most widely recognized and well-respected poker players in the world.  ------------What do YOU think of the show?
