When we get better at poker, we get better at life. Poker teaches us to be more realistic, more strategic, more patient. When we carry these qualities from the table into life, life gets easier. And then, poker gets easier. Here’s to getting better. At everything.
What kind of meditation should you do? The kind where you stop whatever you’re doing and sit still.
It’s the easiest thing in the world, to become a professional poker player. All you have to do is quit your job.
Tilted poker is like crooked teeth. It's not your fault, and it can be fixed.
You can train for poker while waiting in line, and you can train for waiting in line while playing poker.
People ask me how to end tilt and I say you can’t. Even a billion dollars wouldn’t do it. You’d still be upset if you were stuck in traffic and late.
If you bet, and your opponent tanks, and then he shoves, and then you tank, well, I can’t help but wonder what you were thinking about during his tank.
Your poker bankroll is an imaginary wall between some of your money and the rest of it.
If you want to stop your car, you don’t need to hit the brakes. All you have to do is take your foot off the gas and wait. Eventually you’ll coast to a stop. It’s the same with your mind.
If there were no humans on earth, would there be any weeds?

Your A-game doesn’t need to lapse just because you’re card dead.
There are no rules that require the muscles of the mouth to move while playing poker. You have the right to remain silent.
Among the reasons I want two tame grinders on my left is to plug those vital seats for hours so that when maniacs join the game, they can't sit behind me.
Like waterskiing, throwing a frisbee or playing the bassoon, simply staying still at the poker table is a skill that's weird... until it's wonderful. @TheTommyAngelo poker.org/poker-strategy…
