    No, it is not possible for both players to think they are on a roll. It is based on recent skewed results.
    At the very least it's not possible for both to think they're on a roll by the end of the match

    LOL. Off course it is possible for botht to think that they are, only depends on their definition.

    What is the use of thinking that you are on a roll?

    Not sure if you're wilfully misunderstanding me or just an idiot who has never played poker before. Confidence matters.

    Fortunately DN's blog from today explains my point in a way you will hopefully understand:

    There is more to losing those big key pots in a match than most people realize. Normally, if I was just playing a cash game, if my opponent was on fire I'd just quit. Not because I believe in "luck" and that it's "not my day," but because when someone is winning they are at a psychological advantage which will allow them to play better. The true test of a poker player is how well he plays when things are going terribly.

    The best poker player in the world, Phil Ivey, routinely calls it quits early in sessions when things are going badly. It's the exact opposite of what 99% of poker players do! Most players chase, and just want to get "unstuck," which means they'll often play for days when they are losing. That's a terrible way to approach poker as a business and it's buried plenty of people.
