Episode 116 - Kindness, Compassion and Bounty Spots

Author: Poker On The Mind Podcast August 17, 2021 Duration: 41:40
After some reflection on Gareth’s early training videos and how cringeworthy he now thinks they are, the hosts talked about how it’s important to give yourself kindness and compassion! Everyone is changing and growing over time and it’s important to acknowledge that.

Then they turned their attention to a question sent in by a listener who wants to know if he made a mistake in a bounty spot.

Topics covered include:

● A brief summary of how decisions change based on available bounties
● How to evaluate chip EV versus bounty EV
● Why it’s important not to call too tight when bounties are involved
● Why sometimes the “mistakes” we get hung up on are actually a form of mental game leak
