Poker Player of the Year...Fedor Holz

...THE most enjoyable poker player to watch since Phil Ivey, this kid is a calculating machine nice guy! Watched him play in a high-roller event against legend Eric Seidel, what a treat.

At the same event was bi-polar Phil Hellmuth who wears his heart on his sleeve with every win or loss. Great watching Phil reach across the table to introduce himself to Fedor who of course smiled back and then busted him out.

Interesting that two totally opposite personality types can still achieve superstar status in the world of high stakes poker. Hellmuth of course is a member of the hall of fame, along with Seidel, and the leading WSP bracelet winner.

So what kind of player are you when it comes to investing...emotional or emotionless. Buffett says there is no place for emotions in investing. I totally disagree. There are deep emotions which is the byproduct anytime you win or lose money.

Where emotions CAN get you into trouble is if a loss leads to anger and the anger leads to tilt. Phil Hellmuth may be emotional, but he doesn't tilt.
