Many people post losing hands to the group to ask how to play. In most of these hands, they lose because they have a bad beat (for example, 2 pairs all in on the flop, the dealer calls and buys out on the river), or they get cooler (for example, AK hits AA, small box hits flush). big...). Poker is different from sports like tennis, soccer, chess... In most fields, if you lose, the main reason is because you are weaker than your opponent, or you made a mistake. In poker, you can do everything right and still lose. Because since childhood, we have always been trained to think: wrong results mean we did wrong, "getting a bad score means not studying well", "failing the exam means not working hard enough", "being refused a job". meaning not good enough", etc., so many people have difficulty comprehending and accepting the new way of thinking in poker: short-term results have nothing to do with whether you play correctly or incorrectly. In poker, only long distance can tell if a horse is good.
When you lose a big pot, the common feelings are sadness, frustration, and disappointment. Instead of beating yourself up over the results, stay calm and review each of your actions during the game, asking yourself if there is any place where you could have played better. And if you don't do anything wrong but still lose, be comfortable, be proud of your play, and believe that when you play correctly, in the long run you will win.
