Description: Hey folks, just finished "Thinking in Bets" by Annie Duke and it's spot on – treating decisions like poker hands really helps when life throws all that uncertainty at you. It got me reflecting on my own betting habits too, since poker and sports bets are basically the same mindset.
These days, to keep things fun and not just dry stats, I've been tuning into this <a href=https://www.feedinco.com/blog/melbet-night-show-with-monami-ghosh>MelBet bookmaker</a> night show they run with Monami Ghosh as the host. It's like a lively TV talk show mixed with betting – guests do mini-games, spin slots, chat, and drop hidden promo codes for bonuses right there on air. Feels way more entertaining than scrolling odds alone, and you can jump in with bets while watching the chaos unfold.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 241-266) and index.
