Invariance Poker Podcast #016 - Talking about Sadness
We tend to be Sad more than Happy most of the time. It is much easier to be sad than to be happy. Why is that?
Likewise, Poker players tend to remember the bad beats more than they remember the suckouts. Is this just a poker thing, or does it actually provide us insight into how the human mind operates?
Topics that were touched upon:
#sadness
#happiness
#realization

Invariance.Poker Podcast #013 - When is an Angle an Angle
Angling will always be part of the game. However, it is based a lot on intentions and perceptions. Not every angle is an angle. So what makes an angle, an angle?
The conversation starts there, but will definitely veer off into the unknown.

Invariance.Poker Podcast #010 - Where to Put Your Winnings in the Current Environment
BJ and Tommy discuss what Poker Players can do with their winnings in the current market environment. The SPY keeps reaching an All-Time High, and everyone is investing in Crypto. The Housing market is also outrageously high.
With all these supposedly good options, where should a poker player invest their winnings so that they do not risk losing it all at the poker table? Some ideas that will be touched upon today will revolve around Meme Stocks such as Gamestop and AMC, and also about some crypto coins such as Loopring.
(We apologize for the technical issue and ending short, and will be sure to continue the conversation next time)

Invariance.Poker Podcast #005 - Why do Poker Players Stay Bad
For many of us, Poker is just a game of entertainment to escape from everyday lives. For others, it is a fun game that challenges us in many different ways, a great way to keep our minds sharp and develop mental skills.
All of us want to get better at poker, but we either seem to be capped in our growth, or stuck in a rut and don’t know how to improve. In this podcast, we will discuss why Poker Players have a hard time improving, and what we can do to get out of the rut and actually start getting better.

Invariance.Poker Podcast #004 - The Poker Social Club Business Model
Poker Social Clubs are booming everywhere in Texas. Unfortunately, Poker in general tends to touch upon a lot of topics that are in the 'grey area'. Rumors can turn into news, and vice versa.
This is still a new market and the social club is still a new business model that may disrupt how Poker Rooms are run. Today, we bring in John Dunn, a former Kojacks Poker Room in Midland Texas. John has been on the scene for a while both as owner and consultant. He has a good understanding of the background scenes and will share some of his knowledge with us.

Invariance.Poker Podcast #003 - Poker in Relation to Cognitive Therapy
Poker, Cognitive Therapy, & Mental Wellness. Who would've thunk?
There appears to be a connection between these topics, and believe it or not, the result is personal transformation. It's time to get serious and learn something.
We bring in UNT Psychology Professor Dr. Adriel Boals to help us explore more about these topics and see if we can discover something interesting together.
We want to see if Dr. Boals can validate or reject some of our hypotheses and assumptions that we make in about the Mental Game of Poker.
