Marsha Waggoner on Having a Positive Attitude

Mike Caro recently interviewed Marsha Waggoner about her poker success.  He asked her about her phenomenal success in both the non-tournament and in tournament worlds and attitude affects your profit at the poker table?  Here is what she had to say:

I first got the idea about attitude from female poker player I like to call my mentor about three years ago.  Her name was Betty Carrie.  I looked to Betty.  I watched her carefully, because she was a top player in Finland.  I learned about attitude from her.  I could see Betty sitting at the table and she had a good attitude of a winning player that you could see just by looking at her.  I decided to adapt that. 

It’s the way you might sit at the table and have a feeling of being a winner, to be able to exude this positive attitude.  Betty Carrie did exude the confidence and that focuses the opponents’ energy to you so they’re really aware of you.  You’re really sending out signals when you play that way.
