sucky end of the year for me pokerwise, everything else is going good.
Thought i'd add some advice that i used to use to control the rising tide of anger that comes at times when your aces lose allin pf 3 times in a row etc etc. We all have those feelings now and again, though the more you play the more able you are to control them.
Anyway it only came back to me due to a monsterous hand i had recently, so i thought i'd post it.
Just save the biggest suckout you've ever done on someone in a text file and after a bad beat load it up and smile at the sweet goodness that is poker.
Well i've been slaughtering NL100 for a few weeks, running at 6bb/100 for the last 25k hands.
So i was easily bank rolled for NL200 and moved up.
Not sure if its a combination of playing like a scared fish and getting sucked out on or just generally playing badly but i've dropped a bit. (6buyins in 2 days which has hurt my BR a fair bit, still rolled for it but just barely.) Going to move back to NL100 for a few days to calm down and evaluate.
Would appreciate feedback on some of these hands.
I know some are just bad beats, shoving straight flush draws etc. And some are moronic plays reraising pf and then calling donkey river bets when i know i'm beat. But maybe i'm beating badly in situations and stuff.
any advice suggestions are welcome.
i think my next post will be some of my winning hands to see where i can extract more money. i think my river bets are crap
