Hurt people, hurt people. * It isn't really a life and death situation, as your subconscious has interpreted it to be, after all you have survived. * What is the best you can do today and move forward?

Instantly copy pasting this pointers. Thank you , have a good life. Also, I recommend for exploration reasons for everyone next interesting channels with information that will help you guys to be more self-aware and sane(and etc. value), search next channels/videos into UA-cam: * Lex Fridman * Podcasts/videos with Joscha Bach .
The two coaches who have changed my life in the same video? Amazing! I've been waiting for this video since it was announced. I bought Elliot's A Game masterclass 5 weeks ago and it has totally changed my life and mindset how I look at everything. Not only in poker but a lot in my life. That class is a Trojan horse! Ben changed my life with his Tourney masterclass. Completely changed the way I approach the game. Thanks for all the knowledge in this podcast! #letscrush
Amazing that this has been out for over a year and has had such little views compared to some of the poker pro ones. I find this info to be extremely valuable and in the long run, this content will probably be more valuable.
That was a thoroughly enjoyable and useful episode, definitely my favourite one so far. I have spent a lot of time reflecting about the psychological aspect of poker and just gaming in general, mainly because of my own issues with compulsions and gambling problems and what I see at work. I agree that one of the main culprits is entitlement, alongside victim mentality and complacency. Yeah, I did X that was the right thing to do therefore the universe should conspire and hand me Y (the desired outcome) on a silver plate. That's not how it always works in practice and in life, despite one's best efforts. I can only speak for myself, but for me the most painful and what gets triggered is the experience of loss, which is connected to the experience of death if one digs really deep. I think we each have a unique pattern of traumas, which are not necessarily traumatic events like being molested as a child or something of that nature, and as we go through life these patterns get activated through life events. These are opportunities to revisit and resolve these trapped and buried emotions and clear our system and enhance our quality of life but it takes maturity to see these events as such. Poker, because the way the whole game is designed, provides a ton of these triggers and learning opportunities. So yeah, competition and losing money is a monster trigger, so is intimate relationship and these are the areas where people struggle most (see divorce rates) and also avoid most, basically being open to experience vulnerability. Also a big one in my opinion is putting your worthiness as a human being on the line and making it dependent on whether you are being successful at something, in this case poker. This can add a shit load of pressure to an already stressful and very cutthroat environment and is also a big chunk of the perfection problem. Dropping this mentality is gold and it lets you remain connected to friends and family on a deep level, even when you run terrible despite you best efforts. Usually this is also the main motivator behind entering a competitive arena, seeking self-worthiness through succeeding and when you get there you realise that you get a high for a week or two and then it's just life and all the same shit you have been carrying inside before, all the shit you have been avoiding to deal with. There is no way around the dredge-work if you want to live a happy life. No, not happy, I don't like this word actually, contented is way better! :) Okay, thanks again guys for this fantastic episode. It was so deep and insightful! And for people wanting to dig deep and remove their layers of shite, I highly recommend a therapist's books, his name is John Bradshaw and one of his best books is called Homecoming. Peace!
benc you are a great person !!! so honest so humble I admire you brother. A question which book is the one you recommend at the end of the video? And what topics is it about?
Incredible Value in there! Thanks Ben, RYE so much for this Podcast, thank you soo much ElliotRoe it was mindblowing. Love to see that you never walk alone ☺♥
yeah but everyone has a certain limit for input and output. so a network is multiplying that limit buddy. look at fedor i bet he is smarter than all of us and he had the ultra network.

Networking? Aw, you gotta be kidding. networking is for wimps. The most valuable commodity I know of . . . is information.
But if you have no one to share that information with.. it is gonna be very tough to become successful
yeah but everyone has a certain limit for input and output. so a network is multiplying that limit buddy. look at fedor i bet he is smarter than all of us and he had the ultra network.
