Mike Sexton once asked Chip Reese, "The guys you play against are tough. What separates you from them?" Chip replied, "You're right Mike. They are tough. In fact, when they play their 'A' game, I'm really no they are. The difference is that they also have a 'C' and 'D' game, whereas I don't. They become weak players when they steam and just about all of them do. My edge is that I don't steam." (Life's a Gamble, D&B 2016).

This is the blueprint for becoming the best version of yourself both on and off the table. -- James "Splitsuit" Sweeney, Professional Poker Player Tricia Cardner has written a book that every single serious poker player desperately needs. It's one of the best poker books I've read in my entire life. I'd be a multimillionaire if I had this when I started. -- Alexander "Assasinato" Fitzgerald, Professional Poker Player & Trainer So often mental toughness is portrayed as an attitude, carrying the implication that weakness is a choice. Yet we are naturally predisposed to fear, risk aversion, and choosing the path of least resistance in order to survive. To truly develop the mental fortitude required to reprogram these irrational responses requires an unbiased introspective reflection very few naturally possess. Fortunately, experts such as Dr. Tricia Cardner dedicate themselves to empowering us to overcome these common mental blocks. The importance of having a mental coach when choosing a game rooted in failure as a career is as necessary as having a strength and conditioning coach as an athlete. I can't say enough positive things regarding the strides I've taken working with Dr. Cardner. -- Matt Berkey, Professional Poker Player
