Message: [QUOTE="Veralt, post: 6891658, member: 1031609"] It hurts quite a bit to lose with good cards, but it happens all the time. Just as sometimes you win with worse hands, other times you have to lose with better ones. I suppose the negative impact of losing with a strong hand lingers much more in the mind than winning with a worse hand. But well, that's poker. The only way to avoid surprises is to win before the cards are turned, and it's not easy at all. Obviously, it bothers me a lot to lose when I feel I played better, but I always try to keep in mind that in the long run, if you make the right decisions, it will pay off. [/QUOTE]
