Episode notes

On summit day, that would be 1 p.m. You have to get down from the summit in daylight. If you descend in darkness, the chances of death are just too great. They were going up and it was really crowded. There's over 30 people trying to get up the mountain at the same time. So they're in that book and they're talked about quite a bit as the best decision makers on the mountain because they turned around.

Annie Duke is author, corporate speaker, and consultant in the decision-making space. For two decades, Annie was one of the top poker players in the world. In 2004, she bested a field of 234 players to win her first World Series of Poker bracelet. The same year, she triumphed in the $2 million winner-take-all, invitation-only World Series of Poker Tournament of Champions. She retired from the game in 2012. Annie is author of multiple wonderful books, including Thinking in Bets, How We Decide, and her latest being Quit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away.

In this episode, Annie talks about why life is like poker and not chess, how to make sound decisions, the power of quitting, and much more.
