Default Re: The temptation was great! Low content

i agree it's more fun online when with 3-4 tables open you don't have to sit there and listen to the junk-demons. Live the play is slower and if you want to PLAY NOW you want to PLAY THAT JUNK.

Resist the urge. I recommend:
1) a personal stereo
2) a book (if you can still keep tabs on players)
3) a drink
4) sharpening up your live player reads, tells, betting patterns etc.
5) conversing with people
6) Keno??!

Temptation to gambool is something poker players grapple with. I usually play tourneys live, so realise that mixing it up with trash is a waste of time...just keep the discipline.

Regards,
Pete Harris
