224: I Played a Tournament with No Practice—What I did Right and Wrong

I played a tournament recently, and I want to talk through what I did really well, what went wrong, and of course, the result of the actual tournament.

And ultimately I want to make this applicable to you. You don’t necessarily come here just to hear how Josh is doing, you’re here to improve your own game.

So I’m confident you’ll leave this episode with some learnings to help you play better in your next competition.
