I too have taken a short break from poker
(If you can call it that)...I limit myself to 1 or 2 tournaments, per day or 2, that is it.
I am not in the same money brackets as you are, but I know what it feels like. Reason why I have not deposited into my newly opened FT account. Other night, I sent sharkscope email to block my stats on their site. Upsetting to see the $ amount rising. Bonne chance. |

Wise move
Time off never hurts. Here's hoping the break does you good, and you come back with vengeance.

I have a suggestion - when things start going bad for me, this is what I do (not just with poker either).
You have to review your history. When things start going bad we tend tend to change - sometimes in small ways that we don't even notice. With poker you have a big advantage with this PT thing. Crawl back into the PT history to a time when you felt like you were playing really well. What you want to do is find situations similar to the ones giving you trouble today - see what you did differently back then. Also, take an objective approach to analyzing your sessions - you have all the data... Treat it like you would if you were to study an opponent, look for weakness and strength. If you were going to play yourself to win what would you do? how would you play? what would you look for? Do that for the good and the bad times and compare the differences. Luck is a funny thing. When we feel unlucky, we'll be unlucky - when you decide to play again make sure you're feeling good, it counts for something. Also, there was a thread here about the anti-poker legislation and many people were on the side of the argument that says poker is not a game of chance, but a game of skill - I believe that to be true. Luck can be a factor in the short term, but over the long haul, skill will ultimately prevail. If you're running bad for a long time, something is probably wrong. If you need help fixing it I'm sure you'll have numerous volunteers amongst the crowd - I'm one. |

Hmmmm.... I'm not sure if this makes me feel better or worse. Obviously the games aren't any harder if you are continuing to kill them. You and I need t oget on AIM or Skype or something sometime and you critique my play. Yes, I'm running bad, but I think I must have a leak somewhere too.
BTW - you suck donkey balls at $.02 NL. |
