Episode description
Welcome to Episode 170! In this episode, MTT Coach Gareth James and Peak Performance
Mindset Coach Dr. Tricia Cardner are back discussing all things poker strategy & mindset. In
this episode, we discussed a question that has been popping off in Tricia’s facebook group about
how Phil Hellmuth’s antics affect other players - especially recreational ones.
Topics discussed include:
● How & why Phil uses his personality as a marketing tactic
● A couple of hand examples where players targeted Phil and the reasons given were his
past treatment of them personally or other players
● Definitions of common psychological terms that get thrown around like narcissism and
delusions
● The difference between a superiority complex and an inferiority complex
● Why it’s important to keep in mind how another person perceives a situation
