WHY POKER? We use poker to teach new traders about decision making under uncertainty. Our traders go through similar thought processes while evaluating the expected value of a given trade and deciding how to price risk. Susquehanna is home to World Series of Poker Bracelet winners Bill Chen and Jerrod Ankenman, co-authors of The Mathematics of Poker, a leading introduction to quantitative techniques and game theory in poker. CLICK HERE TO LEARN MORE
