Till I saw this thread I did not think that most people who play poker were frustrated. I still don't. Most people seem to enjoy playing the game, whether competitively or just as a way to spend some free time.luckyfish98 said:

I would think that during play their expectations get destroyed by a card on the river, and at times this occurs over and over thus leading to TILT and frustration. purely a human emotionluckyfish98 said:

You are stating this, like its a fact. But what exactly is "so many", and where do you have this information from? For sure you can find posts in this forum, which indicate frustration, like bad beat vents, talk about downswings or claims, that online sites are rigged. But its like with everything else, that those, who are really unhappy with something, are more likely to talk about it online than the general population. So these posts hardly represent the entire poker playing population.luckyfish98 said:

Not quite sure what your point is? Sure there are failures in poker like people trying to go pro but failing. Or people with gambling problems, who hurt themselfes financially and emotionally. But just because someone lose money in poker, does not mean, its a failure, or that their life is miserable. Most other recreational activities are also not free and can easily be more expensive than poker.luckyfish98 said:
People get disappointed in poker because they think they are good enough to win. But in reality, they have no skills or experience, they don't want to learn and work on themselves. And as a result, they lose money and feel disappointed.luckyfish98 said:
