Default Re: Getting very frustrated in the 20+2\'s

Many here will tell you the same thing, but then slip into utter despair when they go for a week or two without winning

I tend to read my own old posts when that happens (and others should read their own posts).
Gives you a feeling of I said that? and reminds you that you were not always a crazy losing nutcase.

Default Re: Anatomy of a slump.

I think one of the most frustrating things about poker is that much of the time you're not really in charge of your own destiny.

In other spheres, improved skills translate directly into improved performance. That's not necessarily the case in poker.

I think to survive with an equitable state of mind, you have to realize a slide in performance doesn't necessarily mean you're playing badly, just as a streak of wins doesn't make you a great player.
