Download or read book Call Her Bluffs written by Richard Longshanks and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-09-09 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dealing with Women is something that we Men have been trying to do since the beginning of time. They play games and these games have no rules except winning at any cost. We cannot expect them to play fair, but what we can do is learn how to recognize their Bluffs and show that that they are always holding the losing hand. Whether you have been with her for five days or five years the signs will be the same because their playbook is universal. Women will test you. Women will play games with you. Women will push your buttons and do what ever it takes to take control of the relationship. With this books I hope to teach you guys about one of their most time worn tools. The bluff. When all else fails they will reach for the chips and threaten to leave or to cry or to cut you off. How often have you fallen for one of those bluffs and given her want she wants. They will bluff you and make you give up something that you love or love to do. The thing that has been hidden behind their theatrics is the fact that you always hold the winning hand. If you do not fold you will always win. Guys, let's face it, constantly losing these pointless battles stinks. Just because they have been winning does not mean that it has to continue. Every Bluff has a tell and I am going to show you how to recognize them. This is no ordinary relationship book. Anyone can write one of those feel good let's hold hands and everything is going to be all right candy ass books. You know what, most of those books have been written by women hiding behind male pen names. You can always tell because they constantly preach that you much change yourself and become a sensitive flower that can relate to her feelings.

Download or read book The Biggest Bluff written by Maria Konnikova and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times bestseller • A New York Times Notable Book “The tale of how Konnikova followed a story about poker players and wound up becoming a story herself will have you riveted, first as you learn about her big winnings, and then as she conveys the lessons she learned both about human nature and herself.” —The Washington Post It's true that Maria Konnikova had never actually played poker before and didn't even know the rules when she approached Erik Seidel, Poker Hall of Fame inductee and winner of tens of millions of dollars in earnings, and convinced him to be her mentor. But she knew her man: a famously thoughtful and broad-minded player, he was intrigued by her pitch that she wasn't interested in making money so much as learning about life. She had faced a stretch of personal bad luck, and her reflections on the role of chance had led her to a giant of game theory, who pointed her to poker as the ultimate master class in learning to distinguish between what can be controlled and what can't. And she certainly brought something to the table, including a Ph.D. in psychology and an acclaimed and growing body of work on human behavior and how to hack it. So Seidel was in, and soon she was down the rabbit hole with him, into the wild, fiercely competitive, overwhelmingly masculine world of high-stakes Texas Hold'em, their initial end point the following year's World Series of Poker. But then something extraordinary happened. Under Seidel's guidance, Konnikova did have many epiphanies about life that derived from her new pursuit, including how to better read, not just her opponents but far more importantly herself; how to identify what tilted her into an emotional state that got in the way of good decisions; and how to get to a place where she could accept luck for what it was, and what it wasn't. But she also began to win. And win. In a little over a year, she began making earnest money from tournaments, ultimately totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars. She won a major title, got a sponsor, and got used to being on television, and to headlines like "How one writer's book deal turned her into a professional poker player." She even learned to like Las Vegas. But in the end, Maria Konnikova is a writer and student of human behavior, and ultimately the point was to render her incredible journey into a container for its invaluable lessons. The biggest bluff of all, she learned, is that skill is enough. Bad cards will come our way, but keeping our focus on how we play them and not on the outcome will keep us moving through many a dark patch, until the luck once again breaks our way.

Can't wait for the rest of the series!" -Starred Review, 5/5 "A compelling, well thought out story which leaves you wanting more." -Early Reader Review "Magic of Lies is fast-paced, witty, and was instantly my new favorite fantasy series. Joyce Gee built a beautifully rich and diverse world. The Altira Series deserves a home on any fantasy lovers' bookshelf alongside George R.R. Martin, J.R.R. Tolkien, and Sarah J. Maas.
