Bad beats upset me a lot and sometimes makes me to end the day there.
However, they didn't made me quit for good yet :)

The most frustrating thing for me is when I am about to reach the goals I have set for myself. And then because of one or more self-inflicted mistakes, to miss that goal. That throws you back quite a bit and is mentally quite a lot of work.

There is nothing that would discourage me from playing poker, but in the course of the game I get frustrated when players always use the maximum time to make a decision.

Hi.
I am most saddened by my mistakes. This is the only thing that can spoil my mood.

the amount of time you need to invest and the bad beats ofc. I mentally crack on those two conditions.

I will never give up! :) Said the frog in the stork's beak.

Still, it can make me mad when in a tournament that can be called many times, the players with the big bankrolls go all in for the first few hands, whether they have cards or not.

When it gives you the wrong board for you, there are many examples. Let's say you already have a pair of aces on the flop, and your opponent has 2 and the table falls 3, 4, 5. This is tilt

Hello!:ciao:
I probably don't take poker seriously enough to quit it. It's a hobby for me - I play when I can. I take breaks that are not related to disorders - they are related to more important things that surround me.
If we talk about upsets: of course, defeats are upsetting, but this is a game, and we play it - someone wins, someone loses.
The attitude of the players is really frustrating. I usually play without chat, but not so long ago I started playing with chat enabled. It is really hard to be disappointed in people with whom you have communicated well in society.
In addition, playing in the group league, it is frustrating that due to a number of factors that have occurred in recent months, the game is not going very well, and there is a feeling that I cannot cope with emotions and cannot focus on the game. If it was an individual league or a simple tournament, it wouldn't bother me much. But in this case, the fact that my game affects the team's result is frustrating.
These are probably the only things that really upset me.:dontknow:

Amazing

The biggest frustration I have in poker is when I have a good hand and lose with a very inferior hand, for example, in yesterday's free tournament this happened to me, as you can see in the image I had the big blind which is supposed to be the best hand in Texas holdem:confused: That pair of five is not that it is a bad bad hand but that in terms of the number of players at the table it is one for a very low hand

I like to play poker, I'm always being beaten, but I don't think about giving up, every day I get frustrated because that hand didn't hit or I lost with a strong hand to the villain who presented garbage, but I already understood that poker is like that.:)

Good luck to everyone at the tables.

most frustrating moments in poker...

Getting rivered is the worst.... especially with a dominating hand prior to the river. I find that I consistantly get rivered- when I am deep in touraments on GG, PS and 888.... I don't get rivered as much when I play 'live' at a casino... but online.... brutal..

What I hate the most is when I have a good hand and some fish gets into the game with a bad card and wins.

When I am against a player heads up that is willing to fire too many bullets and I only afford one bullet

Question for all of you

Maybe many of us would say that bad beats are the most frustrating things in poker, and rightly so. Maybe others would say they're frustrated when they don't get into a hand, and on the flop they would have got a pocketed hand or nuts. Or when you have AA in your hand pre-flop and no one comes into the game with you. Etc.. can be listed kind of kind of such situations. But !!! F:mad:R ME THE M:mad:ST FRUSTRATING !!! is the lack of confidence, when a few days I constantly lose and I realize that I'm on the minus, and I think nothing comes in anymore. I would like maybe some advice from you most experienced like me, how I could get over such periods, because of course after them come the G:D:DD :DNES?
