All these posts on poker!

I can't find the source now, but I recall hearing somebody observe that Americans played foreign policy (and business?) like poker, Russians like chess, and Japanese like go.

I find it kind of funny that a concept so central to go (sente) is now being attributed to poker.

the guy is coming out with a book on poker and business, this is basically self promotion for him to sell more books.

I like the added dimension:

"In a poker room, you can only choose which table you want to sit at. But in business, you don't have to sit at an existing table. You can define your own, or make the one you're already at even bigger."
