I got into poker because of psychology. The psychology element is one of my favorite parts of poker for sure and No Limit Texas Holdem is arguably the best form of poker to test this psychology. Unlike limit and many other forms of poker, in No Limit, you can pounce at weakness or shove all-in with completely nothing. Obviously, this second one should be played sparingly for sure: but just the fact that it is even an option is something that makes No Limit poker special.

I've never heard this Annie Duke quotation before, but I like it. No one likes bad beats against them, but this is a positive way to view them - it is looking much more macro scale at the game than simply getting through the moment. Annie Duke is a smart poker player I respect - they always seem to have a great insight that I didn't think of in quite that manner. I wouldn't have thought this about bad beats for sure, but now that it is said this way: it sounds correct.
