The secret to your financial success is inside yourself. If you become a critical thinker who takes no Wall Street "fact" on faith, and you invest with patient confidence, you can take steady advantage of even the worst bear markets. By developing your discipline and courage, you can refuse to let other people's mood swings govern your financial destiny. In the end, how your investments behave is much less important than how you behave."
Taken from the introduction of "The Intelligent Investor" by Benjamin Graham. (the words are those of Jason Zweig)
If you exchange Investing with Poker, then you'd think this was written exactly for the poker player!
Patience, cold-hearted analysis, tilt-control, and not taking any "fact" for granted and putting in the hours to truly understand *the game* is what it takes to succeed in either field.
