The Meta-Skills of High Stakes Poker feat. Garrett Adelstein

​For Lunch Hour #9, Chris Sparks will be joined by Garrett Adelstein.

​Garrett Adelstein is a force of nature in the world of high stakes poker. He’s known for routinely raking in six-figure pots with his creative and aggressive style of play. Garrett's a fixture on poker's largest televised cash games such as Live at the Bike and Poker After Dark and he made an appearance on CBS’s Survivor Season 28: Cagayan.

When Garrett and Chris reached the highest limits of poker, they discovered that the best players are playing a completely different game. They call this the metagame. The game that transcends the conventional game. To win at the metagame, you need to develop meta-skills.

​It’s high time to shine some light on the meta-skills which separate winners from the rest of the field. You won't find this in any book. Garrett and Chris will unfold poker’s hidden dimensions: the dark matter which separates the "best" players from those who actually win the most money.

​Garrett and Chris will have a 45-minute conversation and then they will open it up for audience Q&A. We’ll send you a link to the recording and transcript afterward.
