Default Re: i m feeling sick before playing...

http://www.notedpokerauthority.com/q...benjamins.html <-- Here is an Ed Miller blog entry that helped me a lot. I've also been reading The Poker Mindset, which is good at helping understanding these issues. Another thing that changed how I feel about wins and loses is something a friend (a 30/60 player) told me. He said something to the fact that if your bankroll is too small you will constantly worry about losing it. If it is big enough you should be able to not think about the win or lose you just had and worry about the decision you have to currently make. In other words the fact that you just won or lost has nothing to do with the current hand you are in. You have to get that in your head some how. I found that Mr. Miller's article helped me start thinking this way.
