Poker is a funny old game.
What a rollercoaster it can be.
This month i had my biggest ever win in a MTT, it was glorious. The next 7 or 8 days i crushed cash. It was so easy, i couldn't lose. Out of those days i had a few plus £200 days. Poker was just giving, there was no suck outs - the best hand was holding up.
Then for the past week, it's mostly just been brutal. Instead of winning most days, i was losing. A few days ago I decided i wasn't going to have a break for a few days.
Some of this has been spew, a good amount of it, but a lot of it was coolers. The coolers and run bad resulted in spew / just playing terrible.
It's amazing how quickly your confidence can turn at poker.
Don't get me wrong, it has been an amazing month for me, my best to date profit wise, but sometimes it is hard dealing with downswings. Please roller coaster be on the way up and run good on it's way again:)
Why the post?
