Jason Su is a mindset and performance coach and the author of Poker with Presence. We talked about how living with presence can help guide you through the ups and downs of the game, why it is the missing piece in the field of mindset work, and what are some of the best ways for you to start feeling more centered and get “in the zone” as often as possible. Jason's advice can definitely help us build a more fulfilling career in poker and feel happier with our life.
