So it's 12:42am. I have to be up after less than 6 hours for the university. But i don't feel like sleeping. I had been trying to get asleep for 1 hour but i didn't manage to. Why? I am feeling down. Lately poker isn't going my way. I had a lot of hopes for January, i had tones of free time, because of the session that i didn't have to take i had a completly free month. I have played every single day in January and i raked 9000$, which is great since i get 30% rake back. But despite the huge effort i didn't manage to win, actually i think am down a bit(PT is on the other comp). January was a strange month, i have never thought that poker can impact me that much, i was in a bad mood almost every single day, i felt depressed,angry or whatever, it just wasn't me. I had a downswing from 11400 to 6666$, which firstly started from bad beats and then turned into semi-tilt and the lose of my best game. But somehow i managed to win it back, yesterday i had 10400$, but now i am down again to 84~~~$ and feel really terrible, now when university started again i don't feel like playing poker, since it effects my overall mood and i feel shity. Dunno what went wrong, it seems that i no longer know what's my A game, i feel confused about my play, and very often feel like i might be doing smth wrong for not winning. I feel really terrible when weak passive player sits on my table with 3-4 bi being very predictible having 6% pfr and 14vpip. Everything went wrong since i started using PT, i started giving too much respect for my oponents, easy decisions turned into overthinked situations. Analyzing my play screwed my mind completly, since i lost the feel of the game. Now i am not sure what i am going to do next, but i have completly no motivation for poker at the moment. I put so much effort which went to wastes.

I guess i will have to update my blog tommorow, i can't express myself atm easily, i am tired. I don't even really know why i made this post, but just i felt like i should start my blog, updating it daily, showing the lossing hands and asking for help. I realized that i might be not as good player as i thought i was. And i need a lot to learn, and overlearn again. I would really appreciate if someone would give a glance to blog time to time commenting on the lossing hands that i will probobly start posting tommorow.

PS: sorry for the typos, i really don't feel like checking what i wrote.
Peace

This reminded me slightly of my situation, I have such a tough time adjusting from the horrible game i 'learnt' over the course of about a year before i started actually winning. Atm i also feel pretty lost and january was also a losing month for me, so far this one isnt so great either.
