Tikay10, what would you do if you were running out of patience in poker?got bored?fed up?tired? Bear in mind,you are still playing poker....I've noticed in tournaments,i start off so well...and then slowly i FEEL i'm giving up and i am!I'm losing my chips slowly and slowly just out of desperation i suppose, calling more hands, calling an ALL-IN etc...I really need help in this part of my game because this would improve me.Thanks

    I have exactly the same problem.

    Play faster paced tournaments. The velocity, thews @ 10 etc....

    Or sit an gos......

    I don't play many of the longer tournaments anymore because I've given up before I've started, focus on your game selection and find something more apropriate.

    Try multi tabling with a few SNG's open,  they will keep you focussed and your brain sharp,  well as sharp as usual ;o)

    Wow, its been a while since original post, but I'm back, havent been on for a while..
    some great suggestions there...however i dont agree with hypercharged...It doesnt really define how good you are, people just go all in, and thats like russian roulette really..anyway, what i do sometimes and it works is watch a movie whilst playing!:) so minimise the player window and watch a movie (really bad movie cos u'll be missing some scenes)..anyway thanks

    Hi kop king

    Why don't you watch some videos of Suarez diving .....he could win gold at the olympics...!
     PS Nice tackle on Distin by the way .......we would have had a dozen rolls and a barm cake if it had been the other way around....ha...

    Seriously though, i have the tv on myself and watch progs i'd sky plussed then can pause if i'm involved in an important hand. I know i may be pilloried for not focussing totally but i understand the 'needing to play w/ poor hands' and find that i'm less likely to play silly hands this way. Also why not put a quick £5.50 dym up alongside and when you win uv offset the entry fee a bit.
    All the best.
    Hope the banter hasn't upset you fella......it was just a joke like Neville's dive eh? Ha

    I'm guessing ur an Everton supporter? lol I don't have any problems with them whatsover, in fact, at this moment of time,you have a better team than us, and most defintely a better manager! Moyes is just class. He can buyt the right players or even loan. Thats what u want..He would never come to us though. Banter doesnt upset me mate,its all good.. I shouldnt be saying this but what the hell, I like Everton lol
