In this week's episode of the In the Money Poker podcast, host Michael Gabriel dives into the concepts of "good poker" versus "evil poker" and how a player's mindset and decision-making can go from skillful to reckless. He shares his personal experience over the last few months grinding free poker tournaments and building his bankroll from $0 with the goal of making it to the World Series of Poker. Michael explains how he started out playing disciplined, winning poker, but after some bad beats he slowly adapted the careless style of weaker players around him, calling it his "evil poker." Michael stresses the importance of knowing your own optimal style of play, and catching yourself when you go on tilt or make gambles outside your strategy. He asks listeners to think about what constitutes their own "good" versus "evil" poker and not allow themselves to be sucked into the dark side. With insightful poker strategy analysis and an engaging personal story, this episode reminds players to stick to their A-game and resist the urge to chase losses with overly loose, passive play.
