216: Making Smarter Financial Decisions with Annie Duke

Today, I’m speaking with Annie Duke. Annie is an author, speaker, and decision strategist. She is also known as the Duchess of Poker, and won a World Series of Poker gold bracelet in 2004 and was the leading money winner among women in WSOP history when she retired from the game in 2012. 

She’s written a number of books on poker strategy and decision making, as well as an autobiography. In her newest book, Thinking in Bets: Making Smarter Decisions When You Don’t Have All The Facts, she uses examples from sports, politics, business, and poker to help people understand how to make better decisions and embrace uncertainty–and make sense of the disconnect between outcomes and decisions.

Today, Annie joins the podcast to talk about her astounding career in professional poker, and how it translates to making decisions in real life. We’ll also talk about the reasons why good decisions don’t always lead to good outcomes (and vice-versa), and how this can apply to your portfolio at any stage of life.
