Default Re: Stars frustration

I am just now starting to play again after swearing off the game for months. Right about the time I needed money from poker, was about the same time that I started a hideous streak of repeated suck-outs, miracle losses, and flukish beats. It was your night expanded so long that my play started to be affected badly. Nights like that are going to happen. And you CAN have swings that are greater then 300 BBs in the long run if you let it all get to you.

So expect it. Remember it is a game. I would NEVER EVER want to go pro at this, but I LOVE it as a hobby. If you are not having fun, and don't need to play at any given time...DON'T! Cause at that point, playing tidily-winks would be more constructive then playing any form of poker.

All I have said has been said before...only now I HAVE experienced it and thus have moved from believing it could happen to knowing it WILL happen.
