#41 - Jason Mercier - a podcast by Jared Tendler

What is the point of working hard on your game if you are going to get
unlucky? Of course, fixating on the things out of your control is only
going to make matters worse. The only thing you can do is double down
your focus on the things you can control. Jason Mercier is one of the
most prolific poker players in the world. He is about to surpass $10
million in live tournament cashes, he has previously been a Supernova
Elite, he has two bracelets, an EPT title and a string of other huge
results. He also has a reputation for having had more than his fair share of 'run good’. However you will learn from today’s show that the real
reason for his success is surely his phenomenal work ethic. Many
successful people have said that “the harder they worked, the luckier
they got.” This sentiment rings true with Jason. If you are struggling
to deal with variance, you would be much better off trying to emulate
his work ethic than trying to will the cards your way.
