I read PokerMindset few years ago and now I finished Mental Game 1, so probably the first book was the propedeutic to the second ... Keep calm , play when you are not angry, sad , tired etc... most of common mental status of player it's on first book, but the second one just let you know how you can manage it, why you have to approach differently, in tilt , in scare , etc...

The motivation, the illussion of control, the scare, the security . I have probably a problem of motivation and trying to change it , just studying or approaching better .

I really like this video. Because Bill Perkins is someone who was not born as a rich guy like Dan Bilzerian for example. Bill has worked hard for that what he is now.
Awesome guy.

For the people how dont know him:

If you insult your opponents because you are upset, you have a mental game flaw. It doesn't make sense to be rude to your best customers.

Yeah, it's always funny to hear somebody saying something along the lines of "I'm not tilting, I'm just doing something totally stupid because I'm angry is all".

Yes I agree and I know that but I dont care.

Tilt for me is if I start to play bad because im mad. But I dont start to spew around with my chips so I dont care.
But yes it´s also a form of tilt if I insult my opponent. But this "tilt" does not cost me any money so I dont define it as tilt.

I think mental game includes a lot more than just controlling the traditional tilt where we get mad and start spewing, and these TMGP books could help with other areas too. For example trying to justify some slightly bad moves just because we want to make that move, and then thinking we played fine, is also a mental leak.

Beginning poker players might not even realize the affect of mental stuff to their performance, and therefore reading those books could help them a lot. They might learn to recognize some mental leak/bias patterns in their game that they didn't even know existed.

The Mental Game of Poker

When you insult your good customers, it costs you money. When you have strong emotions, it affects your rational thinking. It costs you money.

Poker is like Casino' if your customer doesn't win doesn't come back lol

I have a theory that is: if you can maintain discipline on the long run you'll win, because 100% of the players can't.

So in short doing something mysterious nobody can would do the trick. Interesting idea.
And so simple too. Wonder why nobody has thought about it before.

Hi Malkistudeniushi,
