Hi CardChat family! 🙌

Last night I decided to try my hand at a $10 buy-in tournament with a $5,000 prize pool. The structure was good, the blinds were high, and I really felt this was going to be “my way”. Do you know what it's like when things are going well? 🤞

But of course... poker had other plans. Right before the bubble, I took [B] QQ [/B]. I was so excited to finally get a chance to pull myself together and win prizes. Someone is 3-bet, I'm pushing, he demolished [B] KK [/B]... and yes, you already know how this story ended. 💔

The Wonderful Queen wasn't on the board and I was suddenly out of the game. So not only did I lose my $10, but I also lost my nerve for a second, and... let's just say, my poor finger was the one that suffered the most. 😂 (I'll show you a photo, don't worry—scars from poker battles!)

It's hard when you play well and still get out of such a difficult situation. Dispersions sometimes don't care about your dreams. But hey, this is poker, right? 🎲

So I wanted to ask: [COLOR=blue] [B] how do you deal with moments like this? [/B] [/COLOR] Do you take a break, laugh, or just keep working? [COLOR=blue] [/COLOR]

At least I have a funny story (and a whining thumb) that will remind me that this game is about overcoming pain and chasing fame in equal measure. 💪
