If you are not doing too well don't hesitate to walk away from the game as it does involve wagering money and one can go on. 'Tilt' if things are not going right and lose large amounts of hard-earned money. Walk away without any Ego or go back to the drawing board and work on your game. What kind of player you develop into will surely depend on your own analysis. Play tight but aggressive.
