Default Recommend a book for the psychology of the game.

I'm looking for a book that deals with the mental mindset of playing poker. I'm a winning player but trying to improve. My three bigges downfalls are.

1. Making poor decisions in attempts to get even before ending a session.
2. Making poor decisions against opponents who have beaten me in previous pots. Almost as if I'd like to "get them."
3. Tilting after a few suckouts in a short period of time.

The book doesn't necessarily have to focus on poker but it would be nice if it did.

Possibly a book that works on keeping your mind focused on the task at hand and not allowing other things to distract you from making the "correct" decisions.

Thanks...
