Our sponsor, GTO Wizard, is giving away a free 1 month subscription! to win it, like this video and share your main takeaways in the comments down below. Out of the comments we will pick one lucky winner who gets to be a wizard for a month. The winner will be anounced when the next pod is released.
Main takeaways: Stay humble and take the time to plan out your path to higher stakes and higher levels of competition. Then, execute on it daily, routinely. There will be many emotional setbacks (financial too) and you must accept this and have the grit to persevere.
One of my favourite episodes thus far. Great work as usual
Interesting dude. Seems extremely focused and his work ethic seem top notch. Not surprised he's doing really well
Been listening to this pod for a while... This episode was the most useful for me so far! Matt gives a lot of detailed advice! thank you!
main takeaway was about recovery. noticing myself making avoidable mistakes after 6 hours of play consistently, so will force myself to take breaks instead of trucking through. same applies to balancing rest and study time
Great one! Biggest takeaway was the deliberate practice concept overall. Have thought about it previously and will definitely consciously try to implement it into my playing and studying
Perfect interview!Very organized
Always see this guy on acr 10knl and hs no rathole. Fun games and good player, awesome pod

Agreed he’s a legend
This was hands down (pun intended) the best poker podcast I ever listened to.
2:24:00 to 2:24:30 is key to this podcast with executing what you say you are going to do i.e waking up at 6am everyday or going to the gym 5 days a week. Hard work and remain consistent and resilent throughout the hard times and at the end of the journey maybe you too will have that $1,000,000 graph. Really loved this podcast. Going to listen to it a 2nd time and take some notes after passively listening the first time around.

My main takeaway was the 5bb+ pot analysis in Wizard, i'll try to do it too !
1:58:30 Passive Drift! Yes I wrote an article about the concept of Drift and have never heard anybody else speak about this, If you see this Matt could you provide me where you first heard of this concept or did you coin it yourself? Thanks
consistency is key
Here are my main takeaways, I took a bunch of notes for the GTO Wizard contest a while ago but forgot to post them, hope it's not too late to still be in it =P - Figure out what you should be focusing on at the start of every playing session - Study deliberately, not just randomly checking hands - "You are who you choose to be". Build the specific identity you want to have. - It's encouraging when you stick to your process and it yields results. - Be wary of passive tilt, when you're on a downswing you unconsciously end up playing too passively. - Always remember that losing is part of the process. You lose all the time in poker. - Take the time to look back and realize how far you've come.
It's funny at 33mn. Reminds me of my ou own experiments, playing 2nl fast format, Ofc to put that into perspective it was like at the beginning of those format. I noticed that people where fit and fold and were Just overfolding everything so i decided to open every BTN and SB 100% and CB range 75% every flop and then go passive if i were called, because once They were calling They were sticky.and usualy had better, but in another way i put some crazy badbeat with 72o like hands i were not supposed to have. I made 80BI in a month doing that, playing with no hud, on a smartphone and 4 tables. Was a funny moment
interesting interview! He seems to be a very smart guy so no wonder he is crushing high stakes

Why do ALL these rich pokers player do interviews from their bedrooms and cheap looking bedrooms ?? Is it just me or does this all seem like bull crap.? My experience with poker is you run like a monster for a little while then you give it all back later at higher stakes. I really dont believe anyone keeps the money in poker. Its just a short term loan.

@@wallstreetpro4472 the average poker pro is barely scraping by, if they even win at all. That doesn't mean the best aren't making a lot of money though. ~5% of poker players are winners, and only the top few percent of all winning players make a decent living. Only maybe the top 1% of the top 1% make high 6-figure yearly earnings, but it's definitely possible to be good enough to win a lot on a yearly basis.

Having been in the Pro scene in my younger days I can confirm there are plenty of wealthy players. There is an unusual lack of flex culture amongst the top 1% when compared to other industries. I would suspect this casual attitude to money is very useful for playing at a high level.
