The key to being a good poker player is to not get emotional so frequently.

Your statement is almost akin to saying, "he's a winning player when he's getting good cards."


While only having read this thread it sounds like the content might be slightly reminiscnet of that classic 'Shut up and Deal' by Jesse May...which wasn't the greatest pice of literature I ever stumbled upon but somehow I actually DID find it to be an enjoyable read.


I don't think I'm going to be rushing to the store to pick up this one though.
It sounds kind of stupid (paying 'the rush', playing badly while in France and knowing it).

The enthusiastic reviews in this thread seem a bit forced to me as well.
