I am a doctor and social scientist, teaching at a major university in the Baltimore/DC area, working on a book on expertise across different fields---my own, medicine, and, yes, also poker. I wanted to interview a ranked poker player about what makes for an expert in poker (and watch him/her in action, if possible). I'm afraid I'm not a card player myself. I'm more interested in the phenomenon of excellence in your field. My email is [email protected].
