Since Bad beat is a normal phenomenon in poker, there are several of them in a row, it's all hard to psychologically endure, but gradually you get used to it, you get yourself together faster. It seems to me that this has made me more resistant to stress.

What did you learn from playing poker?
Honestly, so much!

Poker really opened my eyes to new ways to think about and approach life in general, not just how to play and behave at the felts.

CardsChat and it's wonderful, perceptive & kind staff and community have been integral to me realising that, thus my feeling of being eternally indebted, grateful and at the service of C.C.. ❤️

What i learn, :unsure:... i learn that the poker is the most hardest requalification in my life, which i'm done ever...

(Do not get me wrong; I'm not saying I've requalified already.)

At the beginning of my poker studies, I saw a lot of new things related to mathematics, odds , roi, that was very interesting. Another fact is to open up the perception a little to pay attention to things, because during the games you have to pay attention to a lot of information from the players to be able to make notes about them.

Self-learning and resource-intensive are some of the biggest positives that poker has given me. This is a game of incomplete information. Information is never enough, and there is always a need to stay ahead of the engine.My brain is also trained to not only look at the situation from my angle, but also to see everything from the opponent's point of view. To some extent, this is strategic thinking.

I have learned poker is a lot like backgammon, in that you will win some you thought you would lose and lose some you thought you would win.

The first thing you learn to play poker is discipline and patience, you begin to understand it yourself after all the other skills, but most importantly, value your time playing poker after many years you will value your time. If it pays little in a poker tournament, you'd better spend it on something else you'll understand after a long time playing poker

I learn, that is much more better to warm up, before to go in the real action; and I did't find (yet) better place from PS, play money, blinds 50/100 for that warm up... :LOL:

The biggest learning was to become numb to bad luck and to make the most of any situation.

I've definitely learned to be more patient and that's the most important thing in my opinion. In addition, I have become more disciplined, and now I think carefully about every decision I make, both in the game and in my personal life. Poker definitely made me better than I was :)

I've learned:
1. You can't win all the time
2. Patience and discipline are essential
3. Study as much as you can
