Default Re: The final truth about down swings.

When you play, you have no control over the cards, other players, or the randomness of probability. The part that is so terrible is refusing to believe we all lose and listening to our ego tell us how unfair it all is.

Baseball, basketball, most sports do not have dominating winners, neither does poker. Losing isn't brutal, it is part of the game, that is what the op is writing about.

Learn the game well, accept what happens and you can have a okay time even when losing because you know it is only temporary.
