Default Re: the purpose of optimism

It changes how you perceive things that happen.
If you didn`t get one set in you past 1k hands an
optimist says: I haven`t got it so long it will come during the next few hands and that`s it.

pessimist says: i am running so bad lately, never hit a [censored] hand. A result could be a stupid bluff.

Pehaps this isn`t the best example.

I think the big diffeence is how you play.
If you ae a pessimist you could be getting too weak-tight
being optimistic could make you a cs or "maniac"
