i played a bunch more today, and actually started losing, and i couldn't get myself to stop playing. eventually i lost another $2k which really sucks right now.
the thing was, i knew i was a better player than 70-100% of the ppl at the tables i was at. but, in reality, i wasn't playing better because i didn't make the adjustments i needed when stuff happened, and was generally not thinking much at all...just playing MY cards (winning in poker is mostly from playing OPPONENTS cards). of course a big part of losing was people putting money in with little chance to improve, and then they do improve and i lose...
but mainly i wasn't betting my good hands well, and made untimely moves when i had bad cards.
i've got to quit playing for a while. and when i do play, ask, "are you just playing your cards?" if i am then i need to get myself to stop.
