Poker Pro George Reflects on 2019: Lessons and Future Plans
George, known for his podcasts with Darrell 'FourSixFour' Goh, returned to poker in November 2018 and quit his consulting job. Initially, he struggled in November but won $1.6k in December. By the end of October 2019, George had won around $100k. However, he felt down due to poor results in November and December 2019 and not being able to settle in Edinburgh.
Looking ahead, George aims to enjoy poker more and develop habits for long-term success. He realized he is not as good in poker as he thought and needs more time to learn new concepts. George plans to continue working in bitB to reduce risks and progress. He values interactions with other players and finds them helpful in learning.
George emphasizes the importance of sports, diet, and sleep for emotional control while playing poker. He plans to finish playing poker by 10 PM to avoid fatigue and enjoy the game more. George found that playing in a non-optimal state significantly affects performance. He also realized that variance in poker is much higher than he thought.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
