I wrote a comment last day about an accountant or mathematicians and i mean they have a great chance to make money from poker. The condition is to learn strategy and have time to play. Who loves math, make money and this is for many careers. Liv Boeree is an example.

think only about having a class like this with one of the best women who plays poker with a lot of things to pass and teach but it is very complicated for Brazilians to have this opportunity

I think that this talk would have been very interesting and informative. LIv Boeree has always come across as very well spoken and very well educated. I think that she should do more of these talks

I have seen some of these videos, not only from this "institution" but a couple others, and i agree that some people think they are doing something great, when they are actually arent Probably it is like an old saying we are having here, and goes like this: If you do not brag about your own house, it will fall and will crush you

yeah I have to admit that what bowie is saying does really have some truth, actually more than a bunch of ted talks itself. of course there are some jewels hidden in a pile of sh1t that you might find by digging deep in manure in your spare time... not saying that this is the way to spend your free time though

Liv Boeree looks chic and classy on and off the poker table. Her presentation was well done and to the point. A 15-minute presentation is not too long, not too short. Doesn't she look a bit skinny in this video? Maybe it's her outfit that's making her look thin? Maybe it's just camera angles?
