”I’ve got no emotions for anybody else// You better understand// I’m in love with myself// My beautiful self!”
New day, new topic. This time I’d like to talk a bit about negative feelings and such that can fuck stuff up. Today I played a little live, played kinda bad and lost like 70 USD or something. I came home, sat down at the computer and played for 40 minutes or so and ended down more then 600 USD or 3 bi. I think I could’ve saved myself maybe 300 or something of it if I hadn’t been such a payoff wizard and the rest was due to me never hitting anything good and people playing back at me kinda hard. Anyway, I had this stupid feeling all the time and I think it’s a really bad feeling to have when you play poker. It’s something like “ohh shit, he’ll outflop me/call my bluff/bluff me off this”-thingy that basicly translates into “I can’t win, “. I think that I’ll just notice when I get this feeling and just stop playing everytime I feel that it becomes somewhat strong. I’m basicly not playing that good when I feel this, I’m not on my A-game and then I shouldn’t play. Also, I think I know some things that might help me feel better and play better:
1. Work on other, non-poker, areas of my life. I need to be a a better person and improve myself so that less of my precived value of myself comes from my ability to make money while playing cards. Mostly getting in better shape, take my studies more seriosly and such.
2. Trying not to be so result oriented. Look through my biggest losers and winner each session and figure out what I did good/bad.
3. Just stop at once if I feel bad about a session.
actually those things that might help you feel better and play better could help me too, I feel I have to change all this as soon as it is possible cause I won't win anything anymore ( I started running better tho ).

nah I was running pretty shitty past week ( up and down, down, down, up, down, up, up, down.......) it wasn't downswing at all but yea, rollercoster-run. I'm up like 4bi this month after 8k hands -_- it sucks but at least I finally started to running better
