Episode notes

Annie's favorite books on decision making include Michael Mobison, Phil Tettlock and Perfectly confident by Don Moore. If she had to keep just one book with her permanently which one would you keep and why? To kill a Mockingbird is my favorite book of all time. I mean there's so many but if you start searching in that zone of those books you will find other great books on decisionmaking that will fill in that gap.

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.
