The Mental Game Podcast

Today on The Mental Game Radio Show, I give a live on-air session to a listener of the show. Garrett is a semi pro who’s been slogging through a downswing since the start of the year. As often happens when variance wrecks havoc with your game, Garrett is losing a lot more money because of tilt, fear, and loss of confidence. Listen in as I dissect Garrett’s mental game problems and give him a roadmap to correct them. The cause of Garrett’s problems wasn’t what he thought and it’s one that many, many poker players struggle with and don’t even realize it. Learn the real cause of why Garrett and many of you struggle so much with downswing. Plus, this session full of these other lessons that can immediately help your game: • How fear, motivation, and confidence problems can all be caused by tilt. • Understand how to dissect mental game problems using the “Mental Hand History.” • Learn why greater awareness is the FIRST sign of progress. Every poker player experiences downswings, but not every poker player tilt

The Mental Game of Poker show today featured Mike Wolf as my guest, or rather, my first on-air client. Today he and I focused on the more serious issue of confidence and fear in his game, which was twice as importance to him given his poker lifestyle. Wolf is famous for having lived straight out of his car, playing poker, living off of what he could score and never knowing what the next week would bring. In order to remain the good-natured, well-adjusted and above all successful poker player that he is today, Wolf had to exercise remarkable mental game discipline, most of it very self-taught. He explains some of the techniques he used, while we also dig deeper and find solutions to his current problems.

The Mental Game show is back for 2012, and resumes in great stride today, with special guest Barry Carter.
