In episode 18, MTT Dr. Tricia Cardner opens the show by explaining that Gareth is off playing poker, so today’s episode will be a solo venture. A listener sent in a question asking for more information on deliberate practice and how it applies to poker. Deliberate practice is the use of a high degree of focused effort to develop specific skills and concepts beyond one’s current abilities. It is much more than showing up to play. Most of us know that playing poker will only get us so far and then we hit a performance plateau. If you want to become truly great, then designing your study sessions using deliberate practice strategies is for you! This episode breaks down the tips, tricks, and strategies that you can implement now to take your expertise to the next level.
