There are many times in a tournament when you are faced with difficult decisions, especially when you are yellow, orange and red MZoned. Sometimes it's a game of numbers, profiles, or tournament stage. Your poker calculator might be telling you to call, but would your opponent really do what he is doing without a hand? Sometimes it's because of your own errors, miscalculations, or impatience. The simple matter of fact is that it happens to all of us and learning to get over it, learn from it and just get on to the next tournament can do a lot for your frame of mind.

Without mistakes or "grey area hands" there probably wouldn't be any poker forums at all on the internet. It's up to you to look at your controversial hands more reflectively - without regret - and learn from them. Even if you have read all the poker books, this process may be very enlightening to you because you are putting your own emotions into the hand, which simply cannot be ignored. They can only be managed. These are some of those hands that I could have played differently.

Poker software review quotes:

Online poker hasn't really been around for too long, maybe a decade or so, but as soon as it was, clever programmers were thinking about designing poker tools that could not only produce a winning edge for a player, but stretch the meaning of fair play.

Well the best poker software tools have survived an era of audacious claims made by many fly-by-nighters. Poker software like Poker Tracker, Holdem Manager and Tournament Indicator have achieved real staying and power market share largely due to following the rules set out by online poker rooms such as Full Tilt Poker and Poker Stars, yet they have displayed evidence of creating clear advantages for those who use the tracking software.
