Default I find this surprising

Hi Dave!

I kind of find this surprising, because I know you and I know you play well. I guess I also know you are extremely competetive, but you have a strong analytical side that knows how to properly look at each situation.

I don't go on tilt very often. Usually, I am losing and then I start to call a few too many hands in improper decision and play a little too passively post flop. After a few hands I notice this and decide if I can stop it or not, if I can't then I quit. If I can then I try to keep going.

But, you know me. I'm more like AL than yourself. I don't get upset at others when they outdraw I have lately been counting the pot and figuring how much I stood to make overall on that play. I get more mad at myself when I completely screw up a pot.

I sincerely hope you find what works for you. The poster that offered up the heads up advice, I think is dynamite. Your personality would suit heads up very well I think. I do'nt think I'd want to play you heads up, LOL. I imagine it's damn tough to find short handed / heads up here in calgary but online you should be able to get into lots of games.

Anyways, I really hope you are able to figure out what it is you need to do to get back in the game because we both know you are a winning player. I hope to be spending some time at the elbow in a couple of weeks and hope to see you guys there. Still working on a bankroll to sit the 15-30.
