Your face is the first giveaway that could cost you a game of poker. Keeping your emotions and reactions in check regarding hands dealt to you is a key part of poker. Any type of expression sacrifices your power in situations with your opponents. Clear your mind, wiggle your face to loosen the muscles, take a deep breath, and relax. You want to be in control of the situation and if you're too stressed, you can lose that control. Hiding your reactions is power because no one knows what you're thinking or what you're about to do. You can win the upper hand by showing people you are confident and intimidating by locking eyes with them. Meeting people's eyes also shows that you have nothing to hide so they don't know what to expect from you. Look at the bridge of their nose to stare them down and keep your focus. Staring into space or focusing too hard on your cards is also how your poker face can be compromised. It either shows that you aren't paying attention, or that you're concerned for your hand and chances. Remind yourself to blink so that your eyes don't dry out while you concentrate. Excessive blinking can also show nervousness, so don't go overboard. There's a balance between blinking enough to keep from staring and keeping your eyes focused so they don't flit around. Staring too hard can also cause your shoulders to bunch up and posture to suffer. Focusing too hard on one thing visually can also distract you and you may miss an important play. Your mouth is the main support for your face muscles and any tension, smile, frown, or smirk will influence the rest of your face. Relax your jaw first by letting it go slack, creating space between your back teeth. Open and close your mouth a few times to help relax as well. Avoid showing your teeth. Whether it's for a small grin or grimace, visible teeth means your mouth is moving and movement can give you away. Don't grind your teeth. Your jaw will show the pressure your teeth are under. Don't look up or to the left or right out of the corners of your eyes. These are all tells which are little clues to your opponents that you have something to hide, whether it's a good hand of cards or bad. It's hard to do, but minimize your eye movements. Even squinting or excessive eyebrow raises can give away your reaction. To protect yourself, wear sunglasses so you don't have to worry about giving anything away with your eyes. Sunglasses won't be a problem indoors if you have enough lighting.

One-sentence summary -- Relax your face. Maintain eye contact with others. Blink occasionally to avoid staring. Keep your lips together and jaw relaxed. Look straight ahead. Wear sunglasses to conceal where you are looking.

Q: The interest rate stated on your investment prospectus or loan agreement is an annual rate. If your car loan, for example, is a 6% loan, you pay 6% interest each year. Compounding once at the end of the year is the easiest calculation for compounding interest. A debt may compound interest annually, monthly or even daily. The more frequently your debt compounds, the faster you will accumulate interest. You can look at compound interest from the investor or the debtor's point of view. Frequent compounding means that the investor's interest earnings will increase at a faster rate. It also means that the debtor will owe more interest while the debt is outstanding. For example, a savings account may be compounded annually, while a pay-day loan can be compounded monthly or even weekly. Assume that you own a $1,000, 6% savings bond issued by the US Treasury. Treasury savings bonds pay out interest each year based on their interest rate and current value. Interest paid in year 1 would be $60 ($1,000 multiplied by 6% = $60). To calculate interest for year 2, you need to add the original principal amount to all interest earned to date. In this case, the principal for year 2 would be ($1,000 + $60 = $1,060). The value of the bond is now $1,060 and the interest payment will be calculated from this value. To see the bigger impact of compound interest, compute interest for later years. As you move from year to year, the principal amount continues to grow. Multiply the year 2 principal amount by the bond's interest rate. ($1,060 X 6% = $63.60). The interest earned is higher by $3.60 ($63.60 - $60.00). That's because the principal amount increased from $1,000 to $1,060. For year 3, the principal amount is ($1,060 + $63.60 = $1,123.60). The interest earned in year 3 is $67.42. That amount is added to the principal balance for the year 4 calculation. The longer a debt is outstanding, the bigger the impact of compounding interest. Outstanding means that the debt is still owed by the debtor. Without compounding, the year 2 interest would simply be ($1,000 X 6% = $60). In fact, every year's interest earned would be $60 if you did earn compound interest. This is known as simple interest. It can be handy to visualize compound interest by creating a simple model in excel that shows the growth of your investment. Start by opening a document and labeling the top cell in columns A, B, and C "Year," "Value," and "Interest Earned," respectively. Enter the years (0-5) in cells A2 to A7. Enter your principal in cell B2. For example, imagine you are started with $1,000. Input 1000. In cell B3, type "=B2*1.06" and press enter. This means that your interest is being compounded annually at 6% (0.06). Click on the lower right corner of cell B3 and drag the formula down to cell B7. The numbers will fill in appropriately. Place a 0 in cell C2. In cell C3, type "=B3-B$2" and press enter. This should give you the difference between the values in cell B3 and B2, which represents the interest earned. Click on the lower right corner of cell C3 and drag the formula down to cell C7. The values will fill themselves in. Continue this process to replicate the process for as many years as you want to track. You can also easily change values for principal and interest rate by altering the formulas used and cell contents.
A: Define annual compounding. Calculate interest compounding annually for year one. Compute interest compounding for later years. Create an excel document to compute compound interest.
