Re: I think I\'m still 12 years old...
Lastnight I played four tables. I bought in for a different amount on each table, and then shuffled them around my screen. I forbade myself from checking the cashier, and everytime I lost a hand I just forgot about it and sometimes even pretended that I had just won. I forced myself to not think about how much I was up or down, and I played some very very good poker.
I can totally relate to checking the cashier every minute though.
I think I picked up the habit when I was bonuswhoring on absolute poker, because I would constantly check my points and then do some quick mental arithmetic to figure out my available balance, how much I was up/down, etc. It was a huge distraction.
