Bad, bad run

Poker has taken a serious (and I mean serious) downturn and I need to reevaluate my game. I am trying to be unbiased about it and this is what I fell. 75% of my losses are either bad beats or bad situations and 25% of the losses and bad plays on my part - usually a bad call with a strong hand but not strong enough to call the bet.

SO I need to stop feeling sorry for myself, not be so focused on my yr end goal and celebrate the fact I am still nicely up for the yr.

Amen to that - and I am healthy.

Decent

So far the week is going decent with a couple of bad sessions slotted in. Overall its an up week and its what I should be focused on. My goal from now till Sunday is to make $600+.

Wish me luck.

Took a break

My variance swing continued last week and I finally decided to take a break when my opponent had 2 outs with all our money in on the turn and hit. SO I took about 4 days off and will start playing again tonight all refreshed. I am sure I will still be sucked out on occasion but that is to be expected. Its when they happen over and over it gets to you. But I am over the tilt and have refreshed myself so am ready to make some money again.

Bring it bitches!!

Negative Variance

Been on a downswing for 2 weeks which is why I havent posted. I should post when this happens but didnt have the mental energy. Basically all my sets got busted as did my high PP's all in a variety of situations. Usually on all of them I am ahead on the flop and lose it on the turn and dont come back on the river.

Believe me if they could hit their card they were. Lost a nice chunk of change and am playing stress free poker this week just to mentally recover.

More later.
