Good post, I know where you're coming from. It's indeed hard especially the next tournament, after playing for so long in the last one, being so close and just ending with a cooler. For me it's hard if I can pinpoint a bad mistake, if I was out because of me. If I did most of it right or the mistake is a tiny one, after a few minutes I just don't think about it anymore. Why should I? Luck is a part of poker so I don't bother with that. I try and focus on my improvement, I don't expect to win any hand anymore, lost so many times with aces recently, I just focus on what I can do better.
In your case I understand you had a huge hand. I don't know the specifics but if you can't find a mistake in it, that is poker. Also what I also try to do when I get coolered is think of the times I did that to others haha. You can't win them all, but you can improve and eventually you will get to your desired payday. Don't know if this helps at all, just my thoughts. Good luck
