I read Quora every single day, just to learn new things, and I was absolutely fascinated with an article which I read here. In it, a man describes how, in his teenaged and college years, he was a very successful poker player, but he ultimately lost it all. I can’t do the story justice (it’s rather long, but captivating), so I simply urge you to read it. I don’t know the first thing about playing cards, but this guy should write a book!
