Poker - A Hobby

Yeah I know, I haven’t been updating the site very much. But I have been playing.

One of the things that I am noticing is that I am still on the downward bankroll march. I know why, I think, but I have to work on getting into the right frame of mind BEFORE I start a session. I thought that I knew why, now I am not so sure. I will work on some postings this week on my last few sessions. The last one being today. And today was BAD, I am not sure how bad yet, or where it is that I am leaky, I am going to have to pour over my logs to figure that one out. I do know for one thing that I was runner runnered twice and lost most of my buyin. I have a feeling that may have tilted me, and also at one table it meant that I really didn’t have enough money to do much with.

I think that after I finish posting my last few sessions I am going to have to take stock. Maybe read some of my books again to see if I can get some idea what I am doing wrong, and some ideas on how I can fix it. I may come to figure that this is simply one of those dreaded downturns and I simply have to play through it, I am on the bad side of variance. However I don’t think that I really have the experience to know that for sure, I could simply just be a fish/donkey.

So, Super System 2, here I come. Maybe Jennifer Harmon can give me some limit poker guidance. I have also joined up at StoxPoker, so I am going to peruse there and some over at the TwoPlusTwo forums. Maybe I can read some bad beat stories, or, maybe even better, some success stories.
