I’d love to hear about the moments when poker taught you a life lesson. For me, it’s learning to stay calm under pressure.

I want to see how calm you will be when poker chokes you out of breath, drains the last drop of blood

Poker has taught me to value time and every dollar invested. It has helped me learn to control my ego, stay disciplined both at the table and in everyday life, and to approach decisions thoughtfully. Instead of rushing into action, I’ve learned to carefully consider my next move.

Poker teaches you the value of money, teaches how difficult it is to earn consistently and grow money.

Poker taught me to hate fish, so much so that today I no longer fish or eat fish.😁😆😂🤣

Poker taught me nothing that Ludwig Wittgenstein has not aldready outlined in Tractatus Logicus Philosophicus. Published in 1921.

Can anyone recommend a good book or article on bluffing strategies?

When playing tournaments, I often struggle to stay patient during the early levels. How do you handle this?

I learned all of my life lessons before I even started playing poker. Poker is a game where I can realize my ambitions. I may not always speak well of poker as a game, but I really enjoy it. It's like a wife I've lived with for 16 years (actually I don't have a wife and I'm a fox). :)

Hi :)
Poker has taught me to stay calm, be more patient and take my time when it's not necessary. And it helped me quite well in my personal life too :)

The biggest lesson is learning tilt control
