Results Oriented: The Struggle

[MatthewRyan]

[ QUOTE ]
What you should do is look at your big pots lost and won after every session and figure out why you lsot them. If you tilt, you need to stop playing when you become irritated.

Learn from your mistakes and pat yourself on the pat for playing good poker in the pots you played well but lost.

Even if you are results orientated, you should look at the the result of your poker ability instead and commend yourself on playing well. The money result is natural variance which comes with the job.

For a poker player to not expect and nearly welcome variance is the equivelant of a bar owner being upset that he has to pay salary.

Once you accept variance as part of the game you start
playing better poker.
