I think boredom , if you are not sober , if you play online and multitasking as you mentioned,if you tilt easily and sometimes lack of experience are some of the main factors.

Sometimes you gather information by observing a hand you don't participate. I have notes for some opponents from hands they were playing and I didn't.

The optimum solution is to be fully focused at the table and your opponents.

Frustration is definitely one. If your on tilt it's not good. I also think wrong bet sizes. If you bluff a river with a huge over bet like 50-60% of pot and get shoved on. When a 25-30% pot raise would be just as efficient. Then if they shove you can fold and save some chips.

I try to play as few tables as possible to focus on the game, review opponents' moves, stay out of the starting hands to see how they behave. I believe this minimizes mistakes.

But variance is something you can not control, unfortunately

Not being fully energized and playing when your too tired to be at your best. Getting enough exercise and eating well are two keys things to make sure your near 100% when your playing.

Lack of concentration is definitely a problem. It happens to me most time, if I have to few or too many tables. Also when I am too tired to play or when I played too long.

Basically, inattention or not a serious attitude to the game hinders. In addition to this lack of information about the players.

Sometimes i think is the time in the game, if you take a break of 15-20 min, you reduce a lot the mistakes u can make.

As soon as you see small couple, you often change it, hoping to catch a set or even carat. There are several problems at a game with such couples in an early position. How often will you collect a set? We specially will not give the answer because you have to know it if you read the previous lessons. Forgot? Then you should return and study this question anew. Here it is also worth noting that we mean a game at a full table. If you play in private, then pocket couple anyway – a good starting hand.

Many factors can contribute to mistakes; most are already mentioned...attention, fatigue, wrong frame of mind, impatience, not enough time (to make a comeback if you get down early...dinner?) I find I am reckless when I have 20 minutes before dinner. Sometimes, it is a matter of just a lack of experience.

Getting a bad beat in a cash game and not being able to get out of the table. I find that when I receive a bad beat I tend to lose more pots after and it kills my bankroll.

Also not paying 100% attention will cause you to make a wrong play or miss a read.

I totaly agree, but you have to choose, boredom or not paying all the atention you're game needs. I also take notes (at pokerstars you can enter them in a file linked with the player) and try not to get bored.

A (good) tip get up during the the pauses; try to get yore mind a bit off the game. And if you notice you're play is getting different (you want to call with no good hand, just for the fun, ...) take a break (sit out for a moment and get up, go outside and take a good deep breath).

My mistake was very committed staring social networks and look at other players playing final tables.

Underestimating Freeroll Player's Carefree Attitude

There are so many freeroll players that will call 'all in' with minimal hands like A 3 offsuit when the flop is rainbow and has no redeeming value. Really sucks that these players often finish way ahead of me, and they didn't learn anything or become better poker players. Guess I expect too much when playing freerolls.

Good afternoon friend! I also like to watch the plays that I'm not involved make player notes how they behave on the table focus on the game's all.

Start to make mistakes when you try too hard and get tired.Or when you're moved a few times, when you have a strong hand.And then you start to lose your balance.
