The Brainfluence Podcast With Roger Dooley

Annie Duke is an author, speaker, and consultant in the decision-making space. She was awarded a National Science Foundation Fellowship to study Cognitive Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, and—when she was close to completing her Ph.D.—put that on hold to become a poker professional. Annie won more than $4 million dollars in tournaments before retiring from poker almost ten years ago.
