What is your biggest mistake in poker?

[Falzee]

Playing it!

 

[odonob]

Hoping and praying 🙏 I have the best hand and putting in too much when villian raises high amounts. One needs discipline in poker.

 

[flattershay]

Getting tilted after a bad play. I start playing absolute worst after it.

Good decision, waiting for strong pairs reduces risks and improves your discipline at the table.

 

[sibkaz]

I read and understand that this is all about me! ))) I'm all made up of mistakes! )))

 

[chicbulls2]

not being concentrated all the time

 

[Cozmin]

s.Alutare,
I have the impression (I'm sure) after I gather a big stack I lose my concentration and play hands that I wouldn't normally play and I get into spots that kick me, and I realize but I still play, after I lose I sit and think I'm in a hurry again.

You have to study the tables to avoid making mistakes like that, there are many places where you can download the tables, so you could improve on the other one by going all in.

A big mistake of mine is that when I lose or lose I try to recover immediately.

Not respecting variance

 

[antonis32123]

My biggest mistake in poker is that I overestimate my good hands on the flop , even my nut hands on the flop . The times that my nuts were cracked deep in a tourney or in crucial parts of the game , are far too many . That's not motivating to keep on playing long poker sessions in tournaments and sngs. That's sth I cannot control

 

[Stringy]

playing while tired or trying to build up my bankroll in blast(spin and go) instead of from freerolls

 

[Szimba1989]

There are times when they beat me with a worse card on the river and sometimes I get angry and start playing nervously and impatiently which of course leads to a pretty quick elimination

The biggest mistake is that I`ve realized - poker is a disease and lost time after 20 years gambling. I have a notebook since 2015 with all money in and out, each single tournament. The result is about minus 100$ per year. Positive results were before PS ended freerolls. I`m happy poker player , I`ve never played high money games.

Poor bankroll management! 💔

 

[Roller]

I’d make the right play, lose the pot, and then start second-guessing solid decisions. Or worse, I’d make a bad play that worked and let that reinforce bad habits. That mindset cost me way more than any single punt ever did.

My biggest mistake in poker is playing while tilted.

When variance goes against me, I sometimes stay too long and let emotions affect my bankroll.

I am trying to learn that the best move in those moments is to quit the session, luckily for me I have cashed out 50 % of what I had hoped to cash out.

Trust a pair of JJ hahah

Trust a pair of JJ hahah

Jacks! The game wants me out! Haha

Poor bankroll management! 💔

I dont think ive ever managed a bank roll very well either....

 

[ninocabral]

my biggest mistake was playing a buy in that wasn't for my bankroll, that hurt me a lot at the beginning

 

[Happy Bobi]

I have noticed that I have often made the mistake of paying for an All-in, with a low pair of cards. Now I try to accept an All-in from 9-9 or T-T upwards.

Sometimes I played quite passively and most of the time it resulted in me finishing the game before ITM. In recent years I have been playing more aggressively and have had much better results.

 

[GarotoMaroto]

I don't keep a bankroll.
I play, win, withdraw, spend and thats it.
God bless

 

[margmilo44]

I don't go for value on rive and flop

 

[wushibala]

If I have a short stack, I’m willing to go all-in even with 22 — it all depends on the situation.
