Thinking in Bets
Making Smarter Decisions When You Don't Have All the Facts
Annie Duke
Thinking in Bets is Annie Duke's book on judging decisions by the odds at the time, not by the outcome afterward. ChartClub lists it for traders because that distinction matters. It is not a poker system and not a market system.
