Why Luck is a Skill you Can Double (2x),
And Win at Texas Hold’em – Consistently

Our research asked Law School seniors what they learned to use
from law school in their relationships, and private lives.

1. To ask of everything: “Who Cares?” (Relevance)
2. “So What?” (WIIFM) What’s In It For Me?
3. Can you PROVE it? Show me the evidence.

There’s more. One of our professors said, “AGE only
matters with Cheese-Steak-and 20-year old Scotch.
Keep on trucking regardless of your years.”

Luck

I studied about two-dozen of the best players (winners)
at Texas Hold’em and discovered their winning ways.

Wanna Know?

1. Law of the Dancing Bear: If you are exclusively
focused on one thing, you miss important opportunities that
are going on around you. They all have techniques to RE-LAX
and widen their attention and focus. They notice more.

2. Game Plans: they all have Plan A, Plan B, & Plan C.
If one strategy is not working, they don’t “fold”, they switch
schemas and confuse the opposition.

3. They use their Enteric Nervous System (abdomen). They
depend on it up to 49% for “intuition.” Yes, they use their decision-making PreFrontal Cortex, but add insights and revelations too.

They read strange stuff like “neurological and chemical” responses rnof our body, and its “neural networks.” Sure they believe in knowledge rnand experience, but they know there is more than just the brain.

a) They know stuff like: the HEART has 5,000 times morer
Magnetic energy than our brain produces. Like-Attracts-Like.

b) And the HEART has 60x more Electrical energy than our brain.
High brainwaves activate attention and concentration on our goals.
c) Get this: the brain rhythms naturally synchronize to the heart’srnrhythmic activity. Who’s the boss? Wait. Blood pressure and Respiration
rhythms ENTRAIN to the heart’s rhythm too.

4. Lucky folks who win at Texas Hold’em are CONTRARIANS.
They think, feel and believe differently than their opponents (losers).
When Lucky people (Money-Players) lose a hand or two, they search
for meaning and purpose, and stay POSITIVE.

Don’t laugh, they find it, and remember their mistakes. Never again
will they repeat that mistake of betting with low (6s & under) pairs.
They REFRAME – search for the positive in losing small pots.

Example: they get in-the-flow and concentrate more.
Example: they fold more hands with bad pot odds.
Example: they laugh at themselves and inhale more oxygen.

Baseball

We researched professional baseball players and learnedrnwhat All-Star players do differently than .250 hitters.

Get this: the commonality in .300 hitters is they mentally
visualize the ball the pitcher is throwing as large as a
“cantaloupe”. Weak hitters see the ball as small as a peanut.

Who is smarter and more positive?

And this one: .300 hitters mentally slow the ball down asrnthe pitcher throws, and see it coming in SLOW-MOTION.
They have more time to swing and connect.

How?

It’s called DayDreaming. Can you see a black-and-white striped
elephant in your “mind’s eye”? 99% of us can do it instantly.

How?

You combine your Intention and Will-Power to use your sharpestrn(foveal) and peripheral vision to see the size of the ball and its
speed. Intention and will-power are located at your left-dorso-lateral Prefrontal Cortex (PFC).

You make mentally (imagine) make the ball larger or smaller,
faster or slower. You are a powerful Homo sapiens sapiens.

So What?

If you use the index finger of your dominant hand (mostly the right
hand) to point perpendicular two (2) inches above your left
eyebrow for five-seconds, you activate your Intention and Will-Power.

What?

If you want to use the power of your intention to WIN present goals,
and your will-power to DELIVER your burning desires, do this.

Every day for the next three-weeks, on waking, point your finger
2-inches above your left-eyebrow for 5-seconds. It’s a physical,
electro-magnetic field cue and trigger.

We taught it to our students and executives and the results are
scary in the most positive way.
Final Words

Would you be interested in winning an EXTRA $200 to $300rnabout 81% of the time you play Texas Hold’em?

The answer is learning the rules, discovering the Odds and Probabilities,
and becoming a Money-Player using your brain-abdomen-heart for
leverage over your opponents. Interested? www.speedreading101.org

Last thing: if you want to triple (3x) your learning-skills, and doublern(2x) your long-term memory, discover the secrets of speed reading.
