Professional Poker player Annie Duke talks about how money and emotional management skills set you apart from the competition.
In 1994, at the suggestion of her brother, famed poker player Howard Lederer, Duke tried her hand at the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas. She ended up placing 13th in her first tournament, knocking her brother out of play. After winning 70K in her first month of competition, Duke and her husband made the move to Las Vegas so she could pursue poker professionally.
Over the course of the next decade, Duke established herself as one of the best poker players in the world. Duke knocked out 8 of the worlds' greatest poker legends and won $2 million in the No-Limit Texas Hold'em winner-take-all.
