A hard thing is that the most players go all in without a look so i often loose with ak against aq and then change my style because im soooo angry.

Hardest thing for me is to say good game right after I get ko'd in a tourney. I want to yell "lucky idiot" and punch something when I call an all in with AQ and the idiot with an 8-6 off suit wins. It makes me think there is no justice in poker!! But then I have to think back to the times that I've been bailed out on the river.
It never seems even does it??

For me is all about time and how much I can play. I cant find the time to play long sessions and probably would be bad if I did play some long sessions.

For me its putting in enough volume, as a staked team Moshman player this is key. I need to exercise and eat better and force myself to play because i am still very passionate about the game.

For me it's trying to understand how things can get so unlucky.

Let's say I get it in with a win prob of 80% or better 20 times, and I lose 18 of those. What are the chances of that happening?

Since I never get my stack in behind 1 to 4 20 times in a row, that means I will never experience the other side of the balance, how it feels like to be extremely lucky over a long stretch.
