Everyone talks about ranges, GTO, and exploits, but where does patience rank? Has being patient won you more money than learning advanced strategy?

Yes, it is underrated. Everyone just want to play many hands and make big moves. But the good players know when to wait. The thing is, folding more hands than you play is very helpful in winning.

I wouldn’t say everyone wants to play big hands or make big moves, but it’s a common mistake among losing players. I’m a strong believer that you need to trust the process. Too many players are result-oriented. You need patience, discipline, and consistency when it comes to making good decisions. Patience is a skill that comes with experience.
