HOW I BECAME A POKER CHAMPION IN ONE YEAR

 HOW I BECAME A POKEER CHAMPION IN JUST ONE YEAR


Erik Seidel was the first poker beginner to meet him. Rounders is a 1998 Matt Damon movie that tells the story of a law student who works hard and quits to become a full-time poker player. In the background, you can see a real-life match of poker. It's the 1988 World Series of Poker final-table showdown between a young Seidel (the "master"), as Chan is frequently described by the commentators. This poker match is one of the most popular in nonpoker. Seidel's queens fall to Chan's straight after Chan sets an expert trap for Seidel, who was then a new player in poker. To make it to the final table, he had defeated 165 of his rivals. Seidel, now the master, has been there for thirty years. Seidel is the holder of eight WSOP bracelets - only five other players have more - and a World Poker Tour championship. He is one of only 32 poker hall of fame members. He holds the record for the fourth-highest career tournament winnings and the fourth-highest number of WSOP cashes. Many consider him to be the GOAT--the most important player of all-time.


Seidel's longevity is what sets him apart from all other players: He still holds the No. 1 spot. Since his late '80s career began, Seidel has been No. 1. This takes some practice. Over the past 30 year, the game has undergone a significant transformation. The qualitative elements of poker, like so many other aspects of modern living, have been replaced by the quantitative. Caltech Ph.D.s are now on the tables. You will often see printedouts of statistics columns. GTO (game theoretical optimal) and +EV (positive expected values) are two common terms that often pop up in conversations. Seidel continues to be a top player despite the fact that his psychological style of play could make him a dinosaur. Do You Have What it Takes to Be an Online Poker Champion?
