Re: The Taraz Cycle
I wish I knew. Maybe it's boredom with playing the "right" way. I also think it might have to do with moving up and down levels. I primarily play the 33s now, but I was used the 55s, then I moved down to the 11s after I got a new monitor to try multitabling. People's calling ranges and tendencies are much, much different at the various levels.
I also don't really realize that I'm doing it when I loosen up and start FPSing. All the plays that I make seem to "make sense" but they aren't worth it in SNGs.
For example, I'll limp AQ in early position, the flop will come rags, and I'll decide to call a bet because "they couldn't have hit that flop and at least I have overcards". I'll miss the turn and check/fold because I realize calling down would be bad.
