Poker Politics and Perception

With the start of campaigning for the General Election Messrs Brown and Cameron are facing the voters on the campaign trail and taking orders from their image gurus. On the surface this may have very little to do with rakeback poker but if we scratch a little deeper there are some very strong correlations between politics and poker...

Both politicians and rake back players are reliant on their ability to judge others’ perceptions and influence how they themselves are perceived. Perception is not an objective science and a person’s ability to perceive situations accurately can be improved by understanding the common pitfalls associated with perception

To win a general election in the UK a party or leader is now entering into a popularity contest due to the insignificance of their policies on the mass voting public. This popularity contest is a struggle for perception. Politicians will want the public to perceive them in a certain way and this image they want to portray will be based on their team’s perception of what the public wants to see.
The Labour Party and the Conservatives will be constantly analysing the general public in a big to understand what the public want in order to then deliver it themselves. Whichever party is able to more accurately perceive the public’s demand will be able to design a suitable strategy in order to overcome their rival and win the election. The end result of this strategy will be the image they attempt to portray to the voting public who will make their own judgements based on their own perceptions of the parties.
Much like the two political parties a player in a hand will analyse the rest of the table and look to understand the sentiment of each player in order to make the correct decision. If our hero perceives the other players to be weak then a raise will be a judicious play but if he perceives them as strong then a different course of action is required. In the same decision making process a player will need to have an understanding of how he is perceived by the rest of the table or even if they have any image of him at all.
