Hey guys,

Ok this is probably a longer story than i care to write or you care to read. Anyways, i took a small blip a few bad beats, then i started over-playing hands. The more i took a bad beat (although laughing it off) and the more i over played a hand the looser im getting.

I looked back over my last two days worth of hands, and theirs actually about 80% of hands im not happy with how i played. This is an appauling record and in all honesty im glad ive spotted it now and not a week or two down the line.

Any advice would be apprechiated please.

    I reckon you should take a break for few days, play COD or something which will just let of steam dont recommend fifa cos if you lose then tilt more lol or fighting game like wrestling/ufc

    I would also review every hand and note down standard things your doing wrong eg. playing utg too much, overplaying sb & bb, common mistakes like c betting on dangerous board, just review alot and go back down to nl4 where you kill just to gain some confidence. i recently have been running bad but drop to 2.20 sit n gos which i do well to get a bit more confidence back.

    Good luck don don

    Sounds like a classic case of tilt. Take a break.

    AS ABOVE . OTHER THING I HAVE DONE A FEW TIMES IS STOP PLAYING WHAT I NORMALLY PLAY AND ENTER A CHEAP SPEED TOURNEY , CAN BE A GREAT WAY TO DISH OUT A FEW BAD BEATS MYSELF AND GET RID OF SOME OF THE FRUSTRATION ( SHOUTING ABUSE AT THE SCREEN HELPS ) . BEING HONEST WITH YOURSELF IS THE WAY TO GO , ONCE YOU HAVE DONE THAT , HALF THE BATTLE IS WON . EASIER SAID THEN DONE , IM IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT RIGHT NOW AND I CAN ONLY DO THAT IF IM AWAY FROM THE TABLES .  PS. DON'T BREAK THE MIRROR :)  GL M8
