My weakness is that I like to play a lot of hands, I usually lose more than I win. I have no discipline and that makes me lose money and go into tilt.

Among my defects, I can mention those that most disturb me in poker, but that in a way are reflected in my daily difficulties.

I have difficulty concentrating, I make plans but I can't do it, I know what to do but I have difficulty taking the first step, I sabotage my own game not respecting my bankroll, I pay hands that I know I shouldn't call, my range of hands to call and increase according to the stack at certain times of the tournament need to be improved.

Although it is not my fault, but it would help me a lot in my game, I need a better place to play, more comfortable and a powerful setup, in addition to being able to reconcile a tournament grid more suited to my schedule.

My biggest weakness in poker is anxiety/impatience. Consequently I play hands that I shouldn't play and get involved in difficult and unnecessary situations.

On the other hand, when I try to fight against this weakness, I end up becoming an extremely nit player, and obviously I don't get anywhere, most of the time flipping 10 BB's until the elimination.

LFC,

Great post! I suffer from this one too. I often tell myself, "He's strong here. Just fold." but then I will call anyway to see if I'm right. Usually I'm right. :)

Sticking with our reads, and sticking with what we know is right.

I found preparedness is the way to control this. Have a plan for each hand, tournament, session, etc. Poker is an emotional game, and the emotions usually try to steer us in the wrong direction.

Poker and emotions do not have to be this is the Golden rule) the most important rule) I remember, if you have a storm of emotions, after 1-2 tournaments, the best decision is to close and leave) behind the game, laughing, smiling helps to remove tension and completely relax to make good decisions)

I like tactics, I'd rather fold and I don't know what card the opponent has, in this hand the luck was against me, the next hand and I'll be lucky)

My weakness is that I honestly do not like staying sit for long poker sessions. I'm too energetic to remain still for too long [emoji38]

Currently my re surging lack of interest, thus lack of concentration, attention, etc.

Overall, lack of study of the game.

My weakness is that I can go all in with any hand if I come across at least one pair. Not well, except of course 7 2, but it’s not always.

Not folding when I should in situations where I've put so many chips in the pot. ( kinda get this thought process; ''wait, I know he's got the better hand but I can get really lucky and win big'') most tims I don't and end up losing. However this mistake isn't often, its occasional. Its when I get blinded by exponentional growth instead of slowly grinding

Playing too many games!!!

My doomswitch has been activated on BetOnline. I've whiffed on 10-15 MTTs in a row. Just simply losing in every allin spot. Variance like this often leads me to try to play more or higher to make it up. Not this time! I'm taking a day or two break, and then playing some cheaper games when I get back. Start "fresh" and forget about the money "lost." :)

Somedays i feel very anxious and try to win sit and go and long play tournaments very quickly.
The result, most times, obviously, is lost of money.

I don't like the feeling of anxiety, I can't stay in this state for long.

My biggest weakness is concentration, when I play a lot of hours
I can lose concentration and play hands that I should not play at all.

my biggest weakness is that i tend to lose my composure when the variance favors my opponent on the turn or the river. to remedy it I fold all my hands the time to regain my senses but that prevents me from staying focused and playing my A game. at the moment I also find it hard to stay patient at the end of the game, especially when I'm short stack.

I jam too much especially when I see that I have a straight or something like that. Its almost on impulse. I don't sit back and consider what the opposition might have. The take away here is that I'm allocated enough time to think through my actions and I should use that time wisely instead of just going with the impulse move!
