Summary: Today, we are going to talk about one of my favorite hobbies, Poker!, and how that relates to investing and finance. I’ve recently been watching a lot of poker online as well as reading Phil Hellmuth’s autobiography, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Poker-Brat-Phil-Hellmuths-Autobiography/dp/1909457744" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Poker Brat</a>, which gives a great insight into how Phil got so good at poker, and some of the risks he had to take to where got today. Today’s episode I will briefly go over one of the most famous types of poker games, Texas Hold’em, and then talk about what I think are transferable skills between playing poker and investing!
