Episode notes

Playing live poker in a casino allows you to observe a diverse range of people. To improve my reading skills, I developed a strategy called 'jet i poker' where I would cover my cards and make a show of looking at them. I would only play based on my observations of the person. I also enjoy representing hands I don't have to confuse opponents. It's important to tell a consistent story through your bets. However, you must be prepared to fold if your opponent actually has the hand you're representing.
