don't ever feel down about yourself losing money gambling. just know that if you didn't bet, you wouldn't have a chance to win. ever get that feeling when you have rags on the cutoff and don't call even though you wanted to and would have flopped a boat? this is what separates a winning player from a losing one. a winning player knows when the flop is going to hit and they make the call. this is how russians learn the game. in a similar fashion, everyone has that ***** in their life that got away; same feeling as folding a boat pre. if you know you're gonna hit the flop or get your dick wet, make the call. don't be a pussy.
Wayne Gretzky was known as the great one for this reason; he always called to bink the flop and always got his dick wet as a result. Never. Give. Up.
