2+2 has made me a crazy driver!
 
So I noticed a big change in how I drive now.

I used to be a speed-limit cruiser who was very careful and cautious.

Thanks to this forum, I am now very aggressive and get after it. I see the road and now make my decisions much quicker and know where I am going much better. No more passiveness from me.

I love poker...

I think it's made me a more passive driver. I try to work out the EV of my driving decisions, how much time I am going to save compared with the increased probability of hurting myself or dying in making an aggressive move. I usually end up not increasing the risk of injury/death.

I never drive anymore. Assuming the EV of death is -infinity, the +EV of getting somewhere safely 99.9999999% of the time is dominated by the -infinity * 0.00000001% chance of death.

All I do is sit inside and play poker.

The EV of death is not -infinity. It's probably positive when compared to sitting inside and playing poker all the time.

I never drive anymore because thanks to 2+2 I have a butler to do that for me. :snooty:

Inside The Poker Mind made me do the same.
