Texas Hold'Em is a useful metaphor for technology startups: pick the right table (competitors) and understand how your cards best combine with common cards.
Craig Stark's insight:
A great model to learn startup strategy from. I'll call it the "Texas Hold'Em Strategy Stack" as laid out brilliantly by Sean Murphy.
Note that collaboration and seeking partners is a key way to manage risks across the stack.
This needs to be mapped out as a "canvas" that agile teams can use to navigate the "tables" of today's business.
