Poker is hard work, but if you enjoy playing the game, then play to have Fun, There is nothing Funny about losing your money, but if you can learn from your mistakes losing games is not a complete waste of time, if you can improve your game from learning to correct those mistakes.
We all make them.
Good Luck!
