Patience Makes Perfect
- Brad (yukonbrad) Booth | January 7, 2010
Just sitting here with my dog Dexter reviewing some hand histories seeing where things went wrong with my last couple of sessions. I took some pretty hard beats and I think it is so important to review your hand histories after such a ugly session. You can see where you could have done something different and maybe taken down a few extra pots, or could of made some more value bets in some thin spots. In any case reviewing hand histories is a must if you want to improve your game and take it to the next level.
This game can be emotionally and mentally draining, you gotta be able to handle the up swings and the down swings. It is so easy to get caught up in the moment and lose your focus. You must prepare to play an online session or a live session like your going into a UFC Fight! If you don’t play your A-game, it could (will) cost you a shhiat load of money…. Its been a really tricky year for me and I’m trying my best to bounce back and learn from my mistakes. Please feel free to follow me on my journey
Being able to put things in perspective is so important, this game we play is about patience and getting your chips in when you’re ahead. If you play each session as a separate entity and try to forget the past beats from previous sessions… you will be in a better state of mind to play. This is a life game and we can keep learning and playing well into our golden year’s (Thanks Doyle). So the next time AK cracks your Aces, remember the long term
