Re: The Theory of Poker
[ QUOTE ]
To be successful at poker you have to be humble, have a disregard for money and always do the right thing regardless of the outcome (because ultimately if you do the right thing you will be a winner).

I dont see why you have to be humble (and can think of several counterexamples including at least one pro who thinks an arrogant belief in your own abilities is essential to survive downswings) Having a disregard for money seems an equally bizarre requirement - I think if you place no value on money, you have no reason to maximise EV. I dont think it's a particularly good analogy for either, to be frank.
