I also lost with pocket kings against pocket 88, he get's a four of a kind. My question is, is it normal to feel like a winning poker player, and the other week, you only do bad decisions, and you cant win a thing.
Yes, it is pretty normal for variance to affect your self image. When you are running good, you convince yourself that you are a skilled player. When you are losing, you blame bad luck
After each session, it is important to analyze the quality of your decisions and your mindset, not your results.
