This video reveals five damaging beliefs that cost poker players money. Learn why 'his story doesn't make sense so he's bluffing' is flawed logic, how studying always matters, and why accepting variance is crucial for long-term success.

Don't assume illogical betting lines mean bluffs. Study prevents costly mistakes. Accept variance instead of fighting it mentally.

Mental Game Mistakes:

  • Don't assume opponents are bluffing just because their betting story seems illogical
  • Consider both value and bluff combos when making river decisions
  • Studying poker helps you find spots to lose less money even on bad days
  • Being "card dead" is temporary - don't force plays that aren't profitable
  • Use tight image strategically, not desperately when bored
  • Accept that bad beats and downswings are part of the game you signed up for
  • Mental resistance to variance creates unnecessary suffering and poor decisions
