Default Re: I\'d rather have a losing session than this? (probably not)

Your reaction to this experience is something you should work on. How are you going to feel when you play well but still go on a 200BB skid over 15k hands?

I think I can honestly say that I wouldn't be able to handle a 200BB slide over 15K hands. Maybe it's my personality and the need for at least some glimmer of hope, but 15K hands would be about 4 months of poker for me, so that would be a long time to hang in there without any positive results.

Since this post, I've played about 1000 more hands and lost about 130BB. Am I reeling? Yes. Have I considered quitting? Yes. Will I? Not yet. Four bad sessions does not a career make. I will get back on the horse tonight. I'm also taking labor day weekend off from poker, so I'm hoping that will help as well.
