Makes perfect sense, as I hope this does. I'm results oriented in poker in one way and not in another.
When I get my money in with the best of it and lose the pot, or make a good fold that would have won, I know the right play was made regardless.
But when I'm playing in a game and find myself losing constantly over an extended period of time, I take a hard look at it. When I feel that I had an edge in the game and should've won, my conclusion has always been that I'm either over estimating my edge, running ridiculously bad, being cheated, or some combination of whatever. Bottom line is I quit the game because the results say I'm a losing player in it and it's hard to argue with the record. I've done it. GL.
