Default Re: If losing, when and why do you stop?

I think it is very easy to quit when I am playing sng's. After two losing matches, I have to be honest with myself. Did I lose because I played bad or did I do everything within my ability to win?

Usually a good hour break is good enough for me to regather and play okay.

Seriously though. If you have any ability at all at this game, you have smacked your-self in the head for doing something dumb. Those are two advantages to playing sng's. Usually, the calmest player is going to win. The player that gets mad quicker will lose. I also appreciate the fact that the bad player is stuck playing with me, and I don't have to play against a good player for too long.

I will admit that I tend to play when I am tired, or have a head-ache, but stop when I have a break-even or losing stretch of six games.
