Jared’s Latest Book is Out!

The Mental Game of Trading – A step by step system for mastering trading psychology.

Think about your most costly and recurring trading mistakes. Chances are that they’re related to common errors, such as chasing price, cutting winners short, forcing mediocre trades, and overtrading. You’ve likely tried to fix these errors by improving your technical skills, and yet they persist. That’s because the real source of these mistakes is not technical—they actually stem from greed, fear, anger, or problems with confidence and discipline.

Being an amateur and profitable player over the last 5 years, I was drawn to this book. Not because of all the money that I have made, but because of all the money that got left behind on the table from bad beats, bad decisions, etc. The book, its mindset and methodologies, and my willingness to work on this area of my game have certainly kept my head on straighter if not straight entirely. I have read and re-read many sections of the book, and I religiously write in my poker journal now!

With poker now being a game of good players and experts, this is a book that should be on the desk of any serious player. There is so much distraction and frustration that is weaved into the very fabric of playing competitive poker. Jared Tendler has taken a detailed look at the mental game and giving very specific reasons why this happens and guides the reader to solutions that will eventually eliminate these mental roadblocks. This is a fantastic book for insight into your mental game, it will solve many mental problems you have, some you may not even realize you have. I highly recommend this book to any player that wants to improve their game.

When buying this book, you are getting his complete educational framework for the mental game at a fraction of his hourly rate. I say that not at all to disparage the value of his coaching, as when you get to a high enough level of play, coaching is absolutely VITAL to incrementally increasing your performance and keeping your game consistent. I would have paid more than double for the information in these volumes and cannot offer a higher recommendation of them. Trader or poker player, if you work through these volumes and invest the time into the concepts/strategies, there is no question you will develop your game and profit.

Easily the best poker book out there. Once you have a fundamental understanding of how the game works (or if you think you do), the most important thing is understanding the mental side of things. This book truly takes your poker game to a much better level. It may not help you win more/lose less, but it sure will help you to handle the wins/losses much better. I used to walk away from the table so angry after I would run my aces into kings and get beat, or other coolers. After reading this book, I don’t walk away with the same anger towards the game. Definitely a must read for any poker player.

I have been struggling with two repeated leaks in my game, and this book has allowed me to understand the mental heuristics that I use to make and repeat poor decisions- and to begin correcting them…I almost did not write this as I don’t want other players to improve on their serial callaholic ways (in my game)
I am also being better informed with respect to more idiosyncratic behavioral finance issues ( a couple of investing issues )
best book on what i might call the applied psychology of poker…and there a number of other books. This book depicts processes that help you identify and eventually correct your tilts and leaks
