Yeah so I dont really update this blog anymore but meh. In recent news I didnt play almost anything in january, ended the month slightly in the red. February started out great, I finally in the mood to play again and I logged alot of hands playing 3/6-10/20. Peaked my profits at around 35k + an ept copenhagen package. Copenhagen was awesome, eventhough I busted on the first day it was a really fun experience and I loved hanging out with everyone there. Really made me wanna quialify for ept san remo and monte carlo.
However, after returning from copenhagen poker has really gone to shit. In a combination of playing sloppy/tilted/retarded and getting coolered and cold decked I think Ive lost around 30k, meaning ive basicly killed all my profits from february in like a week. So much of this was my own fucking fault, whenever I run bad it just creates a huge negative spiral for me where I just play worse and worse. Its so fucking pathetic how I can let losing affect me when I am basicly freerolling life.
I dont think I can ever completely stop myself from being affected by poor results, but what I can do is take good breaks when poker isnt treating me well. This would minimize the damage of downswings so much and it tilts me to no end that I dont do this more often. The main problem is that where I live right now there is really nothing much to do during the day. All I do is basicly work out/play the piano, play poker and play dota. I very easily get bored and feel useless if I dont put in a couple of hours of grinding. Playing retarded and tilty poker is an expensive cure for boredom though and I really need to stop doing it. So from now on I will be taking a break from poker alltogether for a week. Only exception being maybe some sunday donkaments but primarily the ept sattelites as I want to take every chance I have to win a seat.
Tomorrow im buying a guitar and some books to keep me ocupied. Wish me luck!
Peace gangstahs

hey man, i did something that i think may help you a lot too
i downloaded an alarm onto my computer, set my sessions to 90 minutes (if im up more than a few bi i keep playing but if im only up 1 bi or even or down i quit for 30 mins to an hour and evaluate my play) then session again
90 min sessions are the shit man
atleast give it a try, really the only advice i can give to one of my heros :-) |

shit man, that sux
it's so hard to stop sometimes but it's so good to do.... you're such a great player that you're probably more in a mental battle than a strategic battle. Fight your tilt and you'll ship lots of profit.
I know you know all of these things too cause you tell em to me! It's much harder to do the right thing than it is to know what the right thing to do is. But I know you're capable of it!
GL man! |
