Investing has more in common with poker than you might think—and playing by emotion is how people lose both games.

In this episode of The Games of Life Podcast, investment advisor representative, Ambar Reddekopp uses poker as a powerful analogy to unpack risk tolerance, emotional decision‑making, and long‑term investing discipline. She explores the difference between bravery and capacity for risk, why knowing when to “hold” or “fold” matters more than chasing wins, and how mismatched strategies often derail otherwise solid plans. The discussion highlights behavioral finance, market psychology, and why winning isn’t about every hand—it’s about lasting through the entire game.
