RE: What It Was Like to Win $1,500,000 in a Poker Tournament at Age 22

in #money8 years ago

In the end Ike was the real winner. He's made multiple times more than I have from poker now :)

DFS and poker require similar skill sets. I would describe DFS as someone trying to perfectly play one hand of poker and has hours to do so. You can set up your preflop ranges with contingency plans, your flop ranges, your turn ranges, your river range based on different actions. But you can do all the preparation beforehand and then it's out of your hands and in the hands of the athletes.

Poker will always have a special place in my heart, but I find DFS more fun, sports are already fun to watch and this just makes it even more interesting. Poker is definitely the strategically deeper, and more complex game though.
