Patience: The Most Underrated Poker Skill

[clotra]

Patience just means you lose slower if your post flop game isn't sharp, so it is only half the equation really.

Once i folded so many hnds in a home game my cousin started calling me "the statue" then i stacked him with pocket twos because he didnt respect the waiting game

yeah patience is key, those who wait usually end up stacking chips ? it's not always about the flashy plays, bro

[pabloloris]

everyone preaches balance like its some magic formula but honestlly id take a patient rock over a wild maniac any day, aint nothing worse than bleeding chips because you cant sit still for ten hands

Honestly i started pretending im commentating a poker tournament in my head and narrating my own folds like "and he wisely lets this one go, showing incredible restraint" it sounds dumb but it actually stops me from getting bored and punting with garbage hands out of frustration. Keeps my ego out of it too which is half the battle.
