I started playing some shorthanded and HU 5/10. I run good and play a lot. I've been playing, at a minimum, 1k hands a day. My roll is now a healthy 7k online so that's plenty for 5/10 and hopefully will be enough for 10/20 again soon.

Yay!

Since someone bumped, might as well update. Up to 15k now and happily playing 10/20 + 15/30.

Good job, You need to seriously analyse your whole poker "experience" as a whole to avoid serious TILT(again).

To experience this again may bankcrupt your roll next time mate, Good luck at the tables.

Poker... I tilt badly and I run bad or maybe I just suck. I had 4.5k yesterday haha, then this and more losing.

I also manage to always lose whenever I'm upset even though I think I'm playing fine.

You tilt bad, but you manage to play ok when upset :P :P :P

POKhER.

Well, I made a few major changes.

The second I notice myself tilting, I stop.
As soon as I badly misplay a hand, I take a break and reevaluate if I'm fit to play.
If I do not think I am playing well, I stop. I don't play anymore when I'm tired.
I do not play under the influence of anything anymore.
I do not talk to my [censored] ex within an hour of playing.
I judge my opponents more objectively now. If I think they are better, or not much worse, then I don't play.
When I take shots, they are much more controlled now.


And I really think the results have shown those changes. 4BB/100 over my past 15k hands [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

These are some very good discipline guidelines that I think many players would be wise to incorporate into their play

(myself included...especially the bit about misplaying a hand and then stepping back and re-evaluating...and playing less or never when tired)


Also - "at first i wasn't jelous, Now i am a bit"
