She had never played poker before, but Maria Konnikova—a journalist with a PhD in psychology—approached Poker Hall of Famer Erik Seidel and convinced him to be her mentor. Immersing herself in the fiercely competitive, ultra-masculine world of Texas Hold'em, Konnikova began to win, and though it wasn't her intention, she won hundreds of thousands of dollars. Reflecting on the learning process and on her unsought celebrity, Konnikova shares what she learned about life while playing a game that pits skill and intuition against chance.
