One of the worst impediments to the evolution of multiplayer games is the emotional issue.

Many cannot understand the game or are simply going through something bad outside of Poker and this becomes stressful, allowing their reasoning to drastically decrease, automatically resulting in emotional destabilization leading to loss of money.

But this is just one example.

Now do you know what your impediment is?
Proobably make the right decision and not regret it.

The biggest problem for me is tilt! I can't help it)) One has only to run over my top pairs once or twice and I explode like a volcano !!!
This is also a problem🙂

The biggest difficulty for me is overcoming the hiccup of folding a winning hand, not so much in an early tournament but in an instance where you tripled your chips going against 2 opponents, either I tilt or I get an emotional breakdown.

One of my biggest problems is managing a situation when I have good cards but I don't connect anything to the flop, sometimes I go all in, losing the opportunity to get value out of my hand.

Uno de los peores impedimentos para la evolución de los juegos multijugador es la cuestión emocional.

Muchos no pueden entender el juego o simplemente están pasando por algo malo fuera del Poker y esto se vuelve estresante, permitiendo que su razonamiento disminuya drásticamente, resultando automáticamente en una desestabilización emocional que lleva a la pérdida de dinero.

Pero esto es sólo un ejemplo.

¿Ahora sabes cuál es tu impedimento?
Sometimes I play music that helps me relax and have a good breathing routine.

The internet connection in my country is awful, so I get disconnected time to time when playing

For me there are only two difficulties:
1) I don't know other players' hands.
2) I don't know what cards are coming next.

One of my biggest difficulties in poker is dealing with variance and emotional control. Even when I make the right decisions, losing streaks can be frustrating and shake my confidence — it’s tough to stay focused and not let tilt creep in.
Another challenge is finding the right balance between aggression and patience. Sometimes I play too cautiously and miss value, other times I get too aggressive and end up in tough spots. I’m always working on adjusting better to different opponents and situations — it’s part of the ongoing learning process.

There’s a saying I always keep in mind whenever I play any game of chance to win: ‘He who plays out of necessity, loses out of obligation.’
Poker is fun, but it’s also important to remember that it’s a game where luck plays a huge role. That’s why it’s so important to stay within your bankroll, so variance doesn’t mess with you emotionally when you have to make risky decisions
