Harvard Asian American Alumni Alliance

Bernard Lee ’92, ALM ’94, a professional poker player with over $1.35
million in career earnings and an instructor with the World Series of
Poker Academy, offered a poster master class. Lee has written the
Sunday poker column for the Boston Herald since 2005, and is also the
co-host of ESPN.com’s weekly poker show, ESPN Inside Deal.

A smattering of his tips:

This game is all about patience. The goal is not to win a lot of pots.
The goal is a lot of chips. It's called value betting.
Never look at your cards until it's your turn to play, else you will
give off tells.
Almost everyone has physical tells. Except for Chris Ferguson who
covers himself up.
It's impossible to focus on nine people at table. It's possible to
focus on three. It's all about position. You care about those after
you.
