When I had money to put in poker I had very little knowledge and practice, so I lost a little.

Now that I have a tiny better edge I don't have money to invest on it haha.

But what made me loose at first?

The emotional side of poker is super important and the way you see the game also.

In the beginning not only I didn't have much knowledge about the game but I thought I was going to make money easy and fast with it. Looking back I feel bad for the Xtooopiiid earlier version of my poker player self. :D

And its not like it's been long past that period. I'll definitely look back and feel the same a lot of times in the future.

Another part of it is tilt, the "good" and the "bad" tilt. Good tilt I'd say is when you're in a upswing and you think you're invincible and then BAM, you get a reality check at showdown after a river shove finding out a villain trap with low cards set and you thought your two high pairs were the nuts. And the traditional bad tilt that make spill chips away right after the example for the good tilt haha. :o

And for last is simply not having study and practice. There's always something to learn about the game and it is always evolving. So not only being unaware of even the most basic concepts of the game will make you loose but also the lack of practice.
