Yes very often because theyre 10% equity will happen on average 10% of the time. That 1 in 10 times will always feel like every other time. You just have to accept it. Im sure we've all been on the lucky side once in a while too. I know I have.

I learn from my mistakes in the game, but in managing the bankroll, I solve the error constantly, not in spite of the considerable length of the game. In the game, without parsing errors after the session, looking at the current level of players, you will not get a high score.

I learn from the mistakes and the right answers.
Ways to play be aggressive, passive. Act cool when you have the best game at hand.
Take advantage of moments where the opponent shows weakness. I learn both in defeats and victories, each has its benefit.

I think it's only valid to play for fun and hobbie, but you should know that it will not be profitable. But we always have to be evaluating and seeing where we are going, not only to be profitable, but to acquire technique and learning.

Yes. Like with any (strategic) game, actually. Why bother playing something if you don't care about improvement? It's the learning process that I like the most.
In chess, I spent hours and hours doing nothing more than practicing tactical positions. I studied opening lines. I studied my own games, to see where I went wrong. I played and played against many different opponents, trying out new ideas, and generally developing a better intuition.
Especially if there is money involved: why would you not want to learn from your mistakes?

Chess isn't comparable. If you study chess enough you work out playstyles that force either stalemate or you winning. The top chess players cannot lose.

They say mistakes are only a bad thing if you don’t learn from them so I agree that it is good to use losing as a learning experience because chances are there are a few mistakes that caused the loss to occur in the first place. Staying positive is a huge thing because playing into your emotions in poker can be costly. Nice post. Good luck to all.

I have been learning from my mistakes. I'm not abusing my bankroll by playing games I have no business playing. I don't chase losses like I used to either. I have more motivation to grind, and am much more patient. I focus more on making better long-term decisions, instead of short-term success. I've become a lot more confident in my game.

Of course, I always analyze my own hands. I have even some programs that help me with it and it's really worth it. We need to learn from our mistakes because that's the only way we get better. Of course, the better option is to learn from the mistakes of other people, because learning from their mistakes is very expensive. Education is everything in poker, constant learning is a very important thing.
