Episode 176 - Is This Card Distribution Or Do I Suck?

Welcome to Episode 176! In this episode, MTT Coach Gareth James and Peak Performance Mindset Coach Dr. Tricia Cardner are back discussing all things poker strategy & mindset. In this episode, the hosts discussed their recent poker escapades including Gareth’s time playing SCOOP and Tricia’s recent visit to The Lodge. Topics discussed include:

• The role of variance in results and how it can be hard to tell if it was just bad luck or if poor play was to blame
• Whether or not Hendon Mob results are an accurate representation of how good & profitable a player is
• Why mental game work is never one and done and why mental toughness is paramount to long-term success
