Starting tomorrow I'm playing for one week without looking at my account balance. I'd like to play 200 tournies during this week, which is alot for me. When I sign up for a tourney I'll give the screen the old 'squint eye' so I can't decipher my account balance. I just want to see what if feels like.

You can't avoid knowing what your account balance is when you can't join the next sng.

I think checking my account balance obsessively is +EV. It may even be +$/hour.

That would mean I just experienced a 100+ downswing. I would probably never recover.

I'm fortunate enough to not have to worry about money (and scared enough to play really low stakes), so I play poker entirely to see higher numbers in my bank account/the cashier. Not looking at the cashier would, I think, make me scared either to lose chips or to give up a pot. Looking makes me think only about what makes that number go up by more more frequently. Not sure if that makes sense, but it helps me. |

200 tourneys a week? That's 28 a day. That's 2.8/hr (assuming 10 hours of play).
I think you should consider getting some professional help, you clearly have a problem. From a poker point of view, I doubt that playing that much at once will improve your game, or your bankroll. You probably won't remember any of it the following week; you are addicted. GL. |

You'll notice I initially said 200 tournies a week was alot for me. Some weeks I go crazy, some weeks I don't play at all. Whatever I feel like. Next week I think I'll go crazy. And I 4 table the 33's which is closer to 4 tournies an hour.
