Poker at Princeton

I was very bullish on this assignment for Princeton Alumni Weekly. The story addresses how playing poker can help prepare you for a job on Wall Street. Mastering this game involves math skills, understanding  quantitative reasoning and psychology, and having the ability to manage risk. These tools are all valuable for working in the securities industry. Below are some ideas for this story.
