In 2004, Annie Duke, a professional poker player, mom of four and former PhD student in Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, won her first and only World Series of Poker title. Duke retired from poker in 2010, but is still considered an inspiration, role model and mentor for many of today’s best female poker players.
Since 2010, Duke has transitioned from poker pro to consultant, speaker, decision-making expert and author. Earlier this year, I read Duke’s 2018 book, “Thinking in Bets: Making Smarter Decisions When You Don’t Have All the Facts” and judging by the fact I finished all 288 pages in two days, you could say I enjoyed it.
