Welcome to Episode 182! MTT Coach Gareth James and Peak Performance Mindset Coach Dr. Tricia Cardner are back discussing all things poker strategy & mindset. In this episode, the hosts discuss a question sent in by Barry who wanted our advice on managing his emotions at the table - and specifically about berating players via the chatbox. Topics discussed include:

• Why awareness is the first step in managing emotions
• Being aware of the “shoulds” and entitlement
• Focusing on the process, not the results
• Why insight does not lead to behavioral change
