The First Place Fix

[Nick M]

Anybody know what I mean???? It's when you play a long SNG, make great plays, everything goes right, and you win. Then your adrenalin is gone and you just feel like watching TV...ohhhh man I hate it. Like sex. Just can't get going again. When I multi table, I don't really get it to much, cause there's so much going on. But when I single and win, I'm like damn what's on HBO.

I used to have this problem when I first started playing as well, it really cut into SNGs per day. It goes away for the most part after a little bit more experience.

seriously you don't know how encouraging that is...

Weird. I'm the total opposite. When I get 1st, it drives me to keep playing. It's when I get keep getting them damn 3rds that I get sick of it.

i agree winning just fuels the fire

When I get a bad run going, I want to quit. But when I get a really exceptional run going, especially if it's a come-back after a rough run earlier, I want to quit too, to lock in the relief or euphoria or whatever.

The time I want to naturally just keep playing is when I'm a little ahead of break-even and want to improve it.
