What huge impact does the amount of money I bring to a casino have on how much money I make from playing poker? ~Gasp! What effect are the other items in my pockets having on my hourly earn?

You've never seen a great 2/4 game and thought 'gee, i'd sit if I just had more cash on hand'? or been to the casino expecting to play 2/4 and then they didnt have anything above 50/100 going and you sat and didnt play that great because you had too much money in your pocket and the game was smaller than you were hoping for?

I can honestly say, no. Neither of those situations have ever happened to me. Then again, I'm kinda anal. I keep boxes at all rooms I play. And if I wasn't in the mood to play 50 (or whatever), I just wouldn't play. If I did sit in the 50, I couldn't see going on tilt because there's 200k burning a hole in my box. ??

But now that I think about it, you make a good point. There really are some players who can't seem to manage themselves, their play, and br's, like a business. So Tommy would be an ideal choice for them.

Well..for one, your own comfort level. Number two, it's called "setting a target". First thing you do when you walk into a new pool hall is buy a coffee at the counter then fumble your 8K roll and drop it on the floor when trying to peel off a single to pay for the coffee. May have some application to poker.

You are right that Tommy's not going to teach you how to extract the maximum from the toughest players. That said, I think the OP would benefit far more from Tommy than from Stoxtrader. It's hard to say "yes, it's worth $X" because X depends on the person, but OP seems like the ideal candidate.

I suppose.. But I really don't understand those with emotional/tilt problems. I guess I'm lucky in that way. I only want to improve my knowledge and strategy of the game and that's pretty much all I focus on. I've never had tilt or emotional issues which is why I don't relate or sympathize with those who do.

It's not so much focused on emotional/tilt problems, although that's part of it. I'd describe it as comprehensive coverage of mental preparation and training for the game of _____ {poker can go in there, but my golf game has gotten better too [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]}.

I'm not gonna lie. I DO tilt at golf! Big time! I'm not sure why poker is different for me. ??

Actually, even some of the best athletes use sports psychologists. So it can't be too bad for poker either.
