Episode 96 - Conflicting Goals, Satellite Bubble Strategy and (Not) Second Guessing Yourself

Author: Poker On The Mind Podcast February 23, 2021 Duration: 39:55
Welcome to Episode 96! MTT Coach Gareth James and Peak Performance Mindset Coach & Educator Dr. Tricia Cardner are back discussing all things poker strategy & mindset. After catching up on their latest activities, Gareth talked about some of the changes he’s made to his playing schedule. He has decided to accept the fact that sometimes his goals are in conflict with each other.

Then, they answered Larry’s question regarding a hand he played on the bubble in a satellite.

Topics covered include:

• The different types of goals and how they can lead to stress
• How bubble strategy in a satellite differs from general MTT strategy
• Why folding hands as good as AA and KK is sometimes necessary in a satellite
• Why it’s important not to second guess yourself when you’ve made the correct play
