Never happy
Unless I win every SNG. I'm not happy. I'm up about 15 buyins in 20 tourneys today and I'm still dissapointed. I still think about the guy who limp-called my A9s all in with 97s and won, I still think about how I've bubbled 3x, and how I missed out on a 3000 chip pot because I lost a coinflip.
Does anyone share this same feeling with me? |

Re: Never happy
The goal is to win them all but that is simply unfeasible in the game we are playing.
It is all about zen baby I'd be pissed about that 97s too |

Re: Never happy
I'm usually unhappy with my results unless I'm really winning alot. It helps me to keep in mind that I'm only supposed to be making 20% on my money; $6 a tourney at the $30s. Bleh. It adds up, right?

Complaining about getting your money in with way the best of it is piss poor thinking. You did your job, and the cards didn't fall your way. The cards are something that you have absolutely no control over, and there is absolutely no sense in getting all riled up about something that you can't control. |

Re: Never happy
Ok, this is my pathetic thinking....
Say I'm heads up and we've both magically got 4000 chips, my opponent pushes and I call with AA. He flips up 32o and wins. I think think about how I wish I was $60 richer and then I cry myself to sleep at night on my huge pillow. |

[/ QUOTE ] I don't keep good stats so I have no idea how much I'm "suppose" to make each tourney. I tried keeping stats when I moved up to the $55s for like 175 tourneys (30% ROI, then lost $1080...no idea what I'm at after that) and then I found myself off almost every time. |

Re: Never happy
Yah, just some times when people call and they show their cards all I can say is:
"wow, nh" |

Re: Never happy
Heheh, I can be like that. It's much more tempting to keep good records when you're winning.
