Default Re: running so good you don\'t want to play? (NC)

I've gone through that phase not too long ago. In fact I almost wanted a small bad streak to come so that I would know that I could fight through it.

Then the bad streak came, I went on tilt for two days (i.e. saying this is a stupid play but I'm on tilt right now, so I'll make it anyway). Took a day break, and came back with the notion of thinking about every play I make for at least 5 seconds before I make it.

Since then I've went on another small hot streak, moved up in limits and am now at the tail end of a 400 game heater.

That two day tilt was probably the best thing thats happened to my game, cause it convinced me that I actually should start thinking about my plays instead of saying "oooh AJs is so pretty...I'll reraise your reraise!"
