After all the stupidity the past 10 days or so, i'm no longer even playing competent enough to beat 50nl. I moved back down today and played retarded, spewing left and right because i thoguht people were "making moves", and basically trying to be an idiot hero. Only lost 2 BI's before i got a grip of myself and quit. BR got chopped up pretty good so i definetly, definetly need this break, played way too much this month, much more than i usually do (like 80-90k hands). Guess ill cruise into early feb and collect my 850$ rakeback, and set the following goals for myself:
-REFOCUS, i've lost almost all focus playing poker
-TILT control. Tilt never used to be a problem for me until the last couple weeks, when i started tilting in a long, long time. It's affected my play and patience greatly. big signs of a break needed
-Re assess my game. Run bad > play bad > change game > lose confidence > play bad some more
-Get some help. I'm still looking for a coach from NL100/200+, 6 max or FR, either is fine, Altho i'd prefer 6max coaching simply because i think it's a tougher game.
-Reinstate stop-loss. 2 BI stop loss = 2 hr break.
-Dont play if i'm tired in any way whatsoever. I've found ive been getting insanely sloppy / tired after 500 hands of playing 6max, which has never happened before, probably has something to do with this "poker depression" i've gotten myself into. I was used to seeing a 2k+ BR for most of the month and then all of a sudden seeing it less made me kinda sick, and it shouldnt
-By end of feb: solidly into nl100 both 6max and FR. BR: 3.5K NOT counting rakeback.
Would like any PM's for anyone offering their services (price can be negotiated), or just anyone who would like to talk hands / and discuss the low stakes.

oh and lastly , one thing alot of people have been doing
DONT BLAME YOUR DOWNSWINGS ON JUST LUCK, OR DOOMSWITCHING, OR LEE JONES BEING A FGT. DONT POINT FINGERS WHEN THINGS ARENT GOING WELL, THERE IS NO ONE TO BLAME BUT YOURSELF.
I'm guilty of this too
