One of the main difficulties for someone like me, who doesn't intend to become a professional poker player, is balancing work, studying the game, and actually playing.

Undoubtedly, studying poker is extremely necessary, but neglecting this fundamental factor due to a lack of quality time to study poker ends up discouraging me when faced with mediocre results in tournaments.

It's important to consider that this sport, which for me is a hobby, is something I often think about giving up.

But like any sport, it requires investment, and I'm still fighting for it.

Keep poker simple: set a small fixed schedule, play more than you study, and focus on good decisions - not results.

That's true, but the difficulty lies precisely in giving up the best part, which is the practical experience.😅
