it was ok

This supposed to be a nice book about poker, with some science behind.

But Author just pointed out that poker is mixed luck and skill, and you should focus on skill part. That's all, honestly.

There was a lot of smart things from over 100 self-help books, but reading them all put together and tide to poker was painful.

Pranay "you should focus on skill part" ?? The whole book is about decision making in uncertainty. Were you trying to tell something else? Because it sure doesn't look this book is about focussing on the skill part of poker.


Travis The title of the introduction is literally “Why This Isn’t a Poker Book.”

Rob Where does it says is a book about poker?
Speaking of Science of Success decision making is crucial and the book has a lot of material in that regards
