Really like how real Charlie is 💯 He has absolutely no problem staying true. It's very refreshing to see in an online word where being fake is considered admirable. Really like the guests lately Ben 💪 Charlie and Adam were 2 very interesting episodes 👊 Good Job bro 🙌
Here passing by a Peruvian comment in the middle of an english poker channel. YES, we would like a joint classes with charlie jesus carrel and Ben. Greetings from Peru, big fan of both of you!
The kind of podcast that help me to improve my poker vision... and my life vision, i'm not gonna share what i've been through like last 4 years... but this really put me back on the tracks ! thank you so much !
Loved this! I've always watched a lot of Charlies content and recently starting to watch a lot more of yours so loved to see this. I just wanted to touch on something you said towards the end about being anxious and having worries, self doubt etc. I disagree with that because it's not what I believe and obviously we all have different beliefs and personally I've started questioning and changing a lot of my beliefs. From what I've learnt though is that we'll always have emotional reactions, but it's about shortening the refractory time of our emotional reactions. Not dwelling on things and living in the past etc. Which is where meditation is key, to become more aware and conscious of how we think and feel and not unconsciously react to everything in our environment which we can't control. I agree when you say we should accept things and they won't seem as bad, because we're not analysing them right? simply just be, in the moment, connect to the energy of our future and the elevated emotions of joy, gratitude etc. Believe in our future more than our past, the past memories of pain, suffering, guilt, unworthiness. Rather than letting our subconscious mind control us and make us feel more separate from any desired future reality. There's one person who really opened my eyes to the benefits of meditation, broadened my awareness of how we see things and helped me change my energy; change my life and that is Dr Joe Dispenza! When you or anyone who reads this has some free time check out some of his content here on youtube honestly you wont regret it!! Big thanks for the content brother, thanks for yours and Charlies time, getting information out there.. massive respect for what you do, appreciate it!
Great podcast. Charlie was a great guest. I like that even though he was the guest and could reasonably expect you to ask all the questions, he showed interest in you and wanted to learn more about your life. I definitely appreciate when both people do a fair share of talking / asking questions. Also, thanks for covering so many different topics. I clicked for the poker, but really enjoyed learning about Thrive, psychedelics, and self healing. Looking forward to your next one.
You know what would be amazing format? Watch you to play with Charlie in the “couch seat” one session and second session with Charlie playing and you in the “couch seat”.
Charlie's idea for helping homeless is absolutely brilliant ! I hope one day we come to a status in the world were people with great ideas get to dictate how a country is run, enough of these slow politicans and other so called "experts" that never tries think outside the box or come up with a solution.
Thank you so much guys. Watching this video made me understand myself and my poker evolution. I was like Charlie but when I came across Ben's study material, I tried to be like Ben. And this fucked up my game to some extent. No disrespect to Ben of course... his study material is awesome and highly recommended. But I think the feel players need to go back to the roots of who they are in essence after understanding Ben's study material. Thanks a ton guys!
Thanks for the great podcast! I hope to see some other collab of the two of you in the future again. I wonder, Charlie, how do you train your intuition? Or anybody else in the comments, do you have some techniques? Thanks :)
Dear Sirs, How much valuable mentoring material is there in this wonderful podcast, please ?! Thank you for letting me take part in this wonderful conversation. ☺♥
Bencb, your podcast, it's a chance for me to listen thoughts that are really collerate with my own, the way you build all of videos, interview,streams, it's simply perfect. It's important to see and listen people like you. I want to say here, giant thanks to you for sharing your thoughts, for inviting interesting people, and for keeping doing it! The best in poker and life podcasts on YT.
uff guys, every 5 minutes of this podcast gives me food for the entire day to think about. Im so grateful to get to listen to this just for free. I really hope i can return it someday.. somehow.
Really good conversation. And love how both of you guys really kept it real. Oh and there is a book called letting go by david r hawkings that is somewhat related to the shadow work stuff, and is really fascinating. I highly recommend it to anyone that is interested in that kind of stuff.
Why not, he's pretty crazy :) in a HS cashgame w/ addamo etc he admitted that he used to buy a hooker every day 😁 but now getting older so he sticks to a few times a week.. Pussy is probably pretty cheap where he lives.
Been Vegan for 6 Years+ and I had the same approach as Ben when I started. Was for health and animals, took me about 2 months to cut out meat and dairy. I have so much more energy since starting! Shout outs for talking about some real issues. Scientists say we need to end factory farms within 10 years or the planet will be beyond the point of no return. Although I don't enjoy the label as people stereotype me, so I try not to mention it. Was expecting poker talk! What a treat :)
Great content Ben! The basic problem and misconception with animal foods is that we actually want to eat what is genetically the most different to humans. That's why cannibals get sick. I got a request: Can you share your methods or tricks if you will to stay concentrated over a long period of time? The problem I have in Poker is that I'm doing good in the first 3-4 hours, making good decisions, intuition on point. But then lacks of concentration pop up where I either lose a ton of chips or suck out completely. Which factors are important for you - sleep, meditation, nootropics etc?
Simple idea: quit when you feel tired, or take the dinner button, but go for a brisk walk for half hour, then spend the remaining time walking slowly back to the poker room, breathing slowly and deeply to calm your pulse rate, maybe close your eyes and relax for a few minutes. No need to play long sessions. Book some winning sessions to create momentum and a positive mindset. Quit session if tired, upset, etc.
Standard A* content, followed charlie a lot over at the mushroom kingdom and I have been able to relate to a lot of things he talks about. Great work as always from the face to a name 😉
6:52 Ben you're so right! Richard de Leth (a former doctor, who switched into prevention/lifestyle) also focus heavily on this aspect when it comes to nutrituion. You shouldn't eat meat every day (for the reason you just mentioned). If you want to add meat to your diet Fish would be your best option because of the omega-3 (yes even knowning the sea is not so clean anymore. it still has more benefits to eat fish in 2021 then not.)
Amazing podcast thanks a lot for all this wisdom :) ! I just don't understand this GTO vs non GTO debate. GTO means playing optimal vs a certain strategy. When you deviate from "GTO" because you play vs someone who is not playing an optimal strategy you are actually playing gto vs his style. Am I missing something here ?
awesome! epic podcast. need to focus a good breathing technique on daily bases too. there is a forest not that far away. perfect. i smoke less recently too, the spring gives energy.... i am a chef. and balance is key... vegan is a concept can be limiting can be helpful...
This is definitely one I've been looking forward to! 2 of the 3 Poker streamers I watch whenever I get the chance - the strategies and difference's are great (Other streamer is Ape)
Hello ben, thanks for sharing this, i'm big fan of Charlie and you, i'm working hard to get money buy your tournament masterclass someday, i got a dream to be a professional poker player like you someday, working hard on meditation, good sleeps, and playing microstakes, (but i'm still very bad haha) never stop sharing this free content love all what you do for this world
At first I didn’t like Charlie cause of the beef with Polk. Then I realized Polk is just an insecure tool bag with no friends. Now Charlie is my favorite poker player, seems like a really good dude that hooks up his friends.
Charlie gets hate for non poker topics, because they start his content because they want to consume poker content. Thats like offering vegan meals and then serving Schnitzel.
Sorry to tell you this: If you make a homeless person spend your money only on food, he doesn't need to spend any of his own money on food and thus has more money left to spend on drugs.
I think Charlie is underestimating the power of AI a bit and overestimating humans. How can you say that humans have a higher skill-ceiling than AI, if there is no human being capable of beating the best Poker AI? Same with Chess, GO and other complex games. And AI will only improve even more at a much faster rate than a single human being can. Also I do think that we are capable to calculate ICM implications for huge fields, it's just not practical because the differences are small and humans can't remember so many details anyways. Don't get me wrong, humans are awesome, we are the ones who created AI, but in isolated areas computers just perform better. Edit: Regarding the "elastic" confusion: I guess for Charlie the betsizing is "elastic" for the same calling range, that's why he calls it like that, while the calling range is "static" regardless of the sizing.
Never understood how both of you gets haters in the poker world, Charlie (Doug) and Ben(Dom). It's just different thinking in poker and don't think there is any positivity in bringing someone down. Like Charlie said, we have a long way to go from being 100% accurate in poker strategy.
In the case of Charlie it's all the bullshit conspiracy theories he posts on Twitter. He's also been talking about his charity efforts for some time, but hasn't yet got to charitable status (as noted in this interview). I don't know what the hold up is to be honest - it takes around 1 to 2 months to do so in the UK so something just seems off.
Check this out about plant based food. It's pretty old now and there are so much more non-animal products worldwide. Gary Yourofsky - The Most Important Speech You Will Ever Hear
the physical and mental factors of not eating (a lot) of animal products is mind boggling. i just strongly reduced animal products (i am not vegan), and the difference for me is unbelievable. i have more energy, more consistence and better mental fortitude. digesting animal products costs us so much energy and in reality is, especially in big amounts, not healthy. even if someone wouldnt care about animals at all or think its all great, they should still try for themselves to reduce animal products, no need to completely stop immediately, and just see how it feels. i think for poker players it is just such a big hack. just look at the vegan percentages in competitive sports rise and rise.. everyone who competes should consider it!
@@gilojager7425 Yes. No ejaculation at all. 90 days cycles. It's very tough to do, but it changes you completely. Physically and mentally. It healed me from depression and female attraction is also insane on semen retention. I've gotten looks from women like never before in my life. But that's just a bonus, the other benefits are crazy as well!
Ginormous is not a word it’s a made up portmanteau from Roald Dahl and Ben is right recreationals are static NOT elastic if they are calling regardless of bet size
