Episode notes

A lot of times you were called lucky. Just I think being a woman in the company of men out there playing poker. You know, nobody had any control over like whether I was promoted or not. Now on the flip side, there's no HR department in poker. So particularly when I was starting out, you know, I can't speak to the last 10 years.

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.
