'Thinking in Bets' explores the world of decision-making from the perspective of a professional poker player.
Annie Duke argues that life, like poker, is a game of skill and luck.
The book emphasizes the importance of recognizing the role of uncertainty and making decisions based on probabilities rather than certainties.
Duke introduces tools and techniques to help readers assess the quality of their decisions, separate skill from luck, and avoid common cognitive biases.
The core message is that good decisions are not always about achieving the desired outcome, but about making the best possible choice given the available information.
It offers practical strategies for improving decision-making in various aspects of life.
