The Bathroom Floor Revelation
Picture a PhD psychologist from Columbia, just crowned poker champion weeks earlier, now collapsed on a Las Vegas bathroom floor during the world's most prestigious tournament. Vision failing, hearing gone, fighting to stay conscious while wondering if this is a stroke. This wasn't supposed to happen. Every variable had been controlled: preventive medicine, yoga, meditation, proper sleep. Yet here was poker's cruelest truth delivered with brutal clarity-some things remain stubbornly outside your control. This moment crystallizes an extraordinary journey: one year from complete novice to international poker champion, transforming not just a game but an entire understanding of how we navigate uncertainty. The question wasn't whether skill or luck matters more. It was whether we can ever truly separate them.
