Does Playing with Better Players Improve Your Mindset?

[Bawse]

I think playing with better players can improve your mindset, but only if you don’t take the experience for granted and are genuinely trying to improve your game.

Thoughts?

I think playing with better players can help you learn a lot of things, however, in order to learn from experienced players, you need to keep your mind open. You need to be willing to learn, learning means listening, observing, and understanding the moves.

Playing with better players can improve you, but only if your ego doesn't block you from learning. I joined one tougher table and it didn't work out. At first I was annoyed, but later I realized that they show me my weak spots.

Just because you play with better player does not improve your mindset. However, if you keep your mind open, if you try to learn from them, if you watch them and master their strategies, you can certainly become better player.

Playing poker with other players who are way better than you will definitely help improve not just your mindset, but also your playing skills.
