Default Words of Encouragement

Thought I would just give a brief post of encouragement to those of you who are having a bad day or a bad run. After playing 250 20+2's and having a 22.1% ROI, I preceded to go 14 consecutive tournaments out of the money, with 9 4th's. I wanted to keep playing but I didn't. I took the rest of the night off and in the morning went and shot some hoops with friends, hit some golf balls, had lunch and let all that negativety go when I came back to the computer late this afternoon. My first 7 tourneys I didn't have a finish worse then 5th and 6 cashes. I'm not posting this to boast but rather to offer encouragement to those who might be struggling. The struggles make the later success worth it so much more. And if anyone wants to chat I'd be more then willing.

GL Yall and see ya at the tables or on the golf course hahahaah
