I'll give a little bit of mental energy to the 1500, which means I'll be on my phone.

I'm not going to, I don't care as much about this one, but the two 50 K fully engaged, fully focused, you know, up against obviously the higher, the buy-in, you know, super top competition.

And, you know, as far as strategy goes, focusing on each day, playing the best I can, not the result.

Like, cause if you focus on the result, you're, you're focused in the wrong place.

Your focus should be on the decisions you actually make.

And if you're making good decisions consistently, you have to continue to do that.

The frustrating part is this.

With poker, unlike chess or other things, making the best possible decision doesn't mean you win.

Often you lose.

You don't in chess.

Sure.

Yeah.

Well, when you think of the World Series of Poker, so as you said, I lost about 1 million, right?

In one tournament, that was 500,000.

So then, you know, like a few others here of high buying tournaments.

So the sample or the amount was, you know, 40, 50 total tournaments with, you know, high variance.

And if you don't run well or do well in the highest buy-ins, you know, you're going to have a losing summer.

I think the most difficult thing for people is self-awareness, right?

And resilience.
