I dont believe in luck... so when you lose, its because of either variance (i.e. you played good... but lost anyways) or you sucked and therefore lost.

DON'T BE RESULTS ORIENTED, IF YOU STARTED PAYING ATTENTION TO RESULTS YOU MIGHT FIND THINGS YOU COULD DO TO HELP YOU WIN MORE, BUT EVERYONE ON THE FORUMS WILL CALL YOU A LUCKY DONKEY, AND THEIR RESPECT IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN DOUBLING YOUR ROI AMIRITE?

i guess you aren't one of the people who sits around and talks about how bad some of the big winners are while reassuring each other that you're really good and your barely-winning ROI is just variance
