friend, I think you should worry about making good posts and not be laughing at members' posts, it's difficult for you to be accepted like that.

I do think that it is frustrating/disappointing when working for so long, playing so well, then you end up in second place, instead of first. If you've played your best, then that's all you can ask of yourself.

Now, if you made a bad play (or several bad plays) that cost you the tournament, then it might be more difficult to get over the second place finish. The important thing would be to learn from the mistakes so they are not repeated.

Of course that losing at the final table is frustating but after some minutes of deep breath in,I recognize that I got so far,and the fact that to be at the FT is signal of improvment.

If you made it to the final table, you did not lose....

to get to a second place and win you with a very ugly hand is even more frustrating, your search for the right hand reaches you and you lose:pcguru:

Hi.
Of course, I am also upset in such situations, but I understand that my game at the final table is already a great achievement. If you are not lucky this time, maybe you will be lucky next time.
Good luck.

Yes, it can be disappointing, but you should be proud on your good result, that you achieved in this moment. In my opinion it is worse to drop out at the beginning of FT.
If you are among the first 5 players, you will gain the most of payouts.
Maybe better enjoy the amount that you won and analyze, if you made some wrong moves later.

for me any entry into prizes is already an achievement. So I'm definitely not upset over trifles

It is impossible to always be the first. Second place is also a good result. You do not need to be too demanding.

Any final table position is positive. A great achievement. It is how often we get there that determines most of the success. I find that folding in the beginning of a final table is good because you can see the style of play and move up in the money.

Good luck to you and hope for more final tables and first places....[emoji389]

I do not get upset to die at the final table, but to take bad in death makes me angry.

Hello.
I agree with you. Although I have never been to the final table, it is obvious that the first place is the result that one should always strive for.

I mean it's disappointing to not make it all the way when you've worked so hard, but it's still an accomplishment that you should be proud of. The heads up aspect involves a lot of chance, IMO.

In response to the first post about being more upset about coming 2nd, if someone stated i would never win again but would regularly make 2nd places, i would be a very happy man, it is SO hard to make final tables of any kind these days, there is a massive amount of variance and luck and no one gets there but just relying on pure skill.
Making final tables to me is the key achievement because if i am doing that, i am playing well. ITM is great, final tables are awesome, more FT and obviously greater probability of that elusive win.

Good luck all

regards

Hi

Nobody likes to get that far in a tournament and not win. However, it is a great accomplishment to get that far. I suggest you try to enjoy it weather you finish first, second or sixth. Good luck !

Sometimes you barely sneak into the final table as the short stack, and in those cases it feels pretty natural when you're among the first few to be eliminated, but when you make it with a big stack and play perfect poker, yeah, it can be pretty dejecting. But it pushes us to win the next one :)

n the one hand, yes, but only when you reach a final table is already a great achievement, so I think I prefer to stay with the best than with disgust.
