Default Casino whoring has helped my poker attitude

I thought this post may be helpful to some. I recently moved, and while my monitors were packed up, I spent a week or so casino whoring on my laptop. Coming back to poker, i've found that it's done wonders for my poker attitude. Aside from feeling refreshed and ready to get back into from taking a week off, casino whoring has helped me with a couple of things.

I mostly play SNGs and have been working on my limit game. During this time, I've had bad problems with tilt. I've been decent about recognizing and getting up before it hurts my bankroll, but I'm still losing time I could be using to play and getting into a bad state of mind. Since casino whoring, the tilt factor has been greatly reduced. Playing a neg
ative expectation game has helped me to be much less results oriented in poker.

The other thing casino whoring has helped me with is learning when to press small edges. Playing a negative expectation game for a bonus can give you a small edge over the house with a high risk of ruin. It's helped me to pick my bets wisely and mke the right decisions for my bankroll. If anyone has problems with this sort of thing and has the bankroll to handle casino whoring, give it a try, it just might help your game.
