- DevX101 16y agoI have several self-recognized cognitive biases that make me a terrible poker player. I hate to give up on something once I start. If I start reading a terrible book, it burns me because I feel obligated to finish. This also means its pretty tough for me to fold a hand after I've been had. Given this bias, I've predicted that my highest EV move in poker is not to play. (By the way, take out the extra periods from your links)
