I don't know, maybe knowing when to "hold them" versus "fold them" and "walk away" would be a valuable skill here. The phrasing sounds off in the part you quite because in poker you only can play a given hand once, and after you've lost, you need to draw an entirely new dataset and start fresh.

It depends on what Poker variant you're playing. These days Texas hold 'em is dominant, but Five-card draw used to be very common, especially for informal games.
I'm not sure I understand the relevance. My point is that you can only play a hand once, regardless of the variant, and after that you deal a new hand rather than getting to go back and make different decisions on the same hand.
