The luck element is harsh.

It punishes good players, who by definition are good players because they consistently put themselves in +EV positions.

All you need is ONE unlucky break in a big pot to make a difference between winning and losing.

Yeah the conventional wisdom is to not be "result oriented," but ask yourself this, would you rather be making great moves but lose money or get lucky and win money?

I'd take the money everytime.

So if you are pissed if you got screwed by that moron who calls off his stack on a gutshot str draw and hits to put you down 200 BBs? You have every right to be mad. If some smarta$$ "pro" tells ya to suck it up cuz it's "variance," tell him to F off.

There's no guarantee you will ever get that back.

I've played tournaments perfectly and ended up with nothing except 3 hours wasted. I am talking about perfect reads and getting in there good everytime.  I've also played tournaments where I've won cuz I got lucky at key moments.

You can't be a winner without SOME good luck.
