I love Chewy, absolute legend and amazing person!
Nice podcast! I think the main takeaways are trusting your intuitions in game especially on the river when real ranges are so different to theory and leaves room for creativity. Also how love for the game and readiness to adapt in order to have a long career in poker.
Congratz, you won the GTO wizard give away, could you reply to this comment with your email and we will get it to you!
Commenting for the love of the pod and thr gto wizard subscription :D
My main takeaway is what andrew said about dealing with losses - how he accepted early on to have to work and figure it out.
Im a poker pro mysefl who transitioned from online mtts to live cash, usually playing in fairly weak games, and i was a winner straight away from the beginning,
But as a result i feel like i still struggle with losses and mistakes, probably due to some entitlement tilt, which lucky chewy seems to have completely gotten rid of.
His mindset and spirituality are exemplary for any poker player - let go of ego and embrace the game

There's a typo in the title.

I wonder why Chewy got into MTT when he was really good at cash
Loved HU, eventually was impossible to get action. 6-max games would run but were challenging to get consistent volume in because of bum hunters and such - really disliked to stop and start nature of table starting, filling, dissipating and then going to a new one/waiting around for action. MTT's are a nice way to know when you start and then play until a winner. No politics around getting into the games and open to anyone. I still play cash sometimes, though.
Hey Wakko, show us how to win at 200z! Is it still beatable?
Keep an eye on the channel, some play & explain dropping very soon
awesome!
Question: "How did you play poker before without a solver?"
Answer: " We took it to the streets."
Hi, Im looking to interview a poker player for the "Art of Competition" podcast. Do you know some honest and skilled poker players that might be interested in joining the podcast sometime
Weed + poker = good?
