Default Well I took an almost 24 hour hiatus from poker... *low content*

That's an eternity for a money addict like myself (as I am sure you guys will agree).

Totally cleared my mind of it.

My plan is to just start 8-tabling 33s again, pretending like nothing ever happened. I've pretty much cleared my mind from the effects of the 30 buy-in drop and 25 OOTM streak - just forgot it ever happened.

After all, I STILL have more money this week than I did last week in my bankroll (if you include my MTT wins).

Think this is a bad idea or should I be 4-tabling 11s or something?

Vive la poker king!

P.S. I hope some of you still have respect for my game even after posting a 25 OOTM streak.

I'll dump some money to you at the 33s if it makes you feel better:P

Jokes...good luck.

Um, less than 24 hours isn't a hiatus. It's more like a nap. You should probably take a bit more time. Like 2-3 days or something.

Regardless of what you choose to do, I wish you the best of luck at the tables. Hopefully you have the opposite of what you just did.

After a really crappy streak I just usually stop playing for the day and start fresh the next day. Being able to forget about your previous day's (or weeks) results in a hurry is extremely important and something I'm trying to work on.

25 in a row is brutal man, Id play a lower limit until you money once or get first place once and then jump back into it, just to remember what it feels like to be a champion again.
