(NC) Improving our psyche

[bobbycharles]

No content here other than talking to my free psychologists here on the board. As I lay back on the couch I say to you shrinks:

I'm in the middle of the most god awful variance draw down, not having made the money in the last 20 tourneys. Lately I've been battling the voice in my head that tells me "you're unlucky." I've realised, and now I feel better, that the reason I seemingly don't ever catch runner runner when I'm behind, is that most of the time I'm ahead in these situations. The times that I'm heads up with my aces vs 94s is so more frequent that it seems I can't catch a break when they hit their 94 on the turn/river. Conversely, I'm not usually that far behind, so the numbers are actually working FOR me.

Ok, that's it. I feel better now.
