Default It\'s not possible to win at online poker.

Well, that's just what I think because I have no confidence when it comes to poker. I have lost a lot. I don't lose because I am a bad player, I know deep down I am very good and I do win when I try my best. I would mostly lose because the stakes were too low to grind resulting in careless play, not caring about winning, feeling tired and impatient, or because I thought I wasn't good enough to win and I would blow my chips on draws.

What can I do to build my confidence? Besides winning because I am not playing right now.

For some reason I just think it's not possible to win at online poker. Can some winners post what game and limit they play and how much they have won and things they have bought please?

i think u should admit that you aren't good and go from there and be willing to learn how to win.

The answer obviously is to play for higher stakes.
