But it is definitely possible to win the tournament))) But it is impossible on a permanent basis.

If they refer to playing unfocused and having their minds in other thoughts unrelated to the game, it is very difficult, not to say that it is almost impossible, of course there can be several strokes of luck but the chances of achieving it will be almost zero.

Hi guys!
I believe that a strong and resilient mindset is a crucial factor in dealing with the pressures and challenges of the game. The ability to control emotions, make rational decisions and deal with the inevitable variations of poker is critical to achieving consistent results and overcoming obstacles to increase the chances of long-term success.

But you have won... haven't you?
(you are living proof this is not true.... those must've been tilt shoves... if not, perhaps you're just very new to the game)

NO, your mood will get the best of you and control your game. Now if you are reffering to a person that does get along with others because they seem fragile or just not with it as the rest of sociaty would not concider normal. They may just blow you away with there poer skills. Do not underestimate anyone.

This is not only about being fragile. As other member said wisely, this is a tricky question.
We can start a session strong and then get weak, or vice-versa.
Polished Poker has a interesting point about poker psychology, and for most strong as we are, we have a personal life that can affect our performance at the tables one way or the other: if we have bills to pay and they are late, if we are sick, getting sick or anyone we care about is in this situation, if we are getting short of money and have to pay the monthly bills, etc.
Poker is a very ideal game, where we should play completely free of all worries, then we would have a strong mind. But this seem impossible, for life isn’t easy to anyone.
The first step to be strong at the tables is to recognize our own problems and try to leave them behind when we seat to play. And leave the tables when the phone rings, when the kids call us, when we get distracted.
But humans are not a constant, as I started saying, we are subjects of changing.

It depends on a lot of factors:
1) Stakes: the micros are playing mostly for fun
2) The kindness of players: if they criticize you, you may lose your cool more easily
3) Luck: If you are in a great streak, you will not have to bother about the fragility of your mind

if your mind is fragile try to cheer yourself up listening to some music that you like and watch a movie 🎞️🎥 or videos that make you laugh after your mood returns to normal then yes play remember your brain 🧠 you have to be happy to flow but without drugs nor alcoholic beverages as they can have a side effect of sadness

I think you can be a profitable player (not super profitable but maybe B/E) with good strategy and bad mental, but you won’t be going deep in any tourneys so really hard capped on profitability
