Default Re: Mea Culpa, Mea Maxima Culpa

Cris,
You know I am a friend and am certainly not picking on you with my post. I do understand the emotional involvement in a hand and in a game, and hurts when you're having a lousy week.

All I'm saying is stand back far enough to give yourself a little longer view. You are a good player, and the fact that you're having a lousy week does not imply that you'll have a lousy month. Give yourself a chance. The cards will swing your way soon enough, and then you can make it back and then some.

Hi Doc,

I didn't feel as if you were picking on me. No worries. And no, this doesn't mean I'll have a bad month, or a bad year, or anything else. It's just a bad swing, and those do happen to everyone. However, I do think it's better if I take a week or so off -- except for the 2pm WPT Super on Saturday, for which I'm already registered -- and try to clear the negative emotions.

Because when those negative emotions are dominating my thoughts, I'm not a good player, and I will keep losing. Not because of I'll keep getting bad luck, but because I'll start (or continue) to make impatient, desperation plays.

Cris

Default And the other 19/20ths is...

Then why do women go on tilt too?

Just thought I'd ask.
