Good morning bunch, all right?

There are hands that we never forget. Not because he won a huge pot, but because he had to make a very difficult decision.

Sometimes it's finding a huge fold knowing that maybe it was in front. Other times it's paying for an all-in relying solely on the opponent's reading.

The curious thing is that, many times, these decisions teach more than any victory.

What was the most difficult decision you've ever made at a table? In the end, was she right, or did you only find out when the letters were opened?

poker is a skilled game. during play you don't have to make tough decisions. the only decision you need to make is how you can preserve your bank. sometimes with top hands like AA or KK or AK when you feel your top hand won't stand, what you will do? best thing is to FOLD, and that is why poker is called skilled game. i never considered poker as gambling because you are always in control of the game.

Good morning! ☕

One that still sticks with me was folding what I was pretty sure was an overpair on the river after facing a huge shove. Everything in me wanted to hit the call button, but the line just didn't make sense for a bluff. I folded... and never got to see the cards. I'll never know if I made the right decision, but I was happy with the process. Sometimes making the disciplined play is a win, even if you don't get the confirmation. That's one of the things that makes poker so addictive.

Calling with AA with A on the table, guy has 55 and we have 55 on the table... it was "fun" and such a shock! I start to laugh! 😱
