Episode 109 - What is the Role of Hope in Poker?

Welcome to Episode 109! MTT Coach Gareth James and Peak Performance Mindset Coach & Educator Dr. Tricia Cardner are back discussing all things poker strategy & mindset. The hosts started off by talking about how they’ve been away due to Tricia moving house! Gareth is also on the house hunt, so there will likely be more house moving updates to come.

Then, they turned their attention to answering a mindset question sent in by Thomas where he wanted to know the role of hope in poker as well as the emotional implications of being a hopeful poker player.

Topics covered include:

● The difference between fantasizing, dwelling, and hope
● How to use hope theory constructively to increase motivation and improve mood
● The 3 components of hope
● Why it’s important to have multiple plans (Plan A to Plan Z if you want to be more hopeful)
