I am 100% guilty of not fully internalising this very simple concept.

Good post Ama.

I get it. That doesn't mean there's anything wrong with bitching. We bitch because we know people are in the same boat as us, and as humans it helps us feel much better about our predicament when we're not alone. People usually whine when it's four, five, six hands in a short period of time, not one, two, or three. There's nothing wrong with that.

ama - I've reconsidered you as a person. At first I thought you were kinda snobby and had a bit of a SSNL ego, but in the last couple months, I've grown fond of your posts.

Mm... Unfortunealty humans are emotional beings and we tend to go on tilt. Just compare your big winning streaks to your big loosing streaks and you will see that tilt comprises a huge fraction of your losses.

Second, all of us have very limited bankrolls, and a dice can easily roll "one" more than 20 times in a row.

Third, when I have 4 to 1 edge, I tend to put all my money into the middle which is often two days work. Then I loose on a suck out I have to grind back for several days cent by cent stealing blinds and making cbets that get no respect after a big loss anyway [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

your 2nd and 3rd points are why you have a first point. Only problem is 2 and 3 are mathematically unfounded in the long run.

I'm not even gonna bother explaining you the basics of a function on an infinite scale, so you are right.
