Message: [QUOTE="MARCIO123, post: 7352016, member: 1039213"] I would say it depends, but I try to transform a painful defeat into learning. At first I get frustrated, especially when I know that I played well and lost because of the variance. In the past this affected my decisions more, but today I try to take a break, review the important hands and return to playing only when my head is in place. In the long term, believing that emotional control is worth as much as knowing a strategy. So, if a defeat leaves me shaken, I prefer not to insist and come back more prepared. [/QUOTE]
