Good idea mate I may join you there! Gl tonight, I'd like to say see you on the ft but I think that would be overly optimistic looking at the week were having loblollyloblolly

You have had a brilliant year Jamie... You have won the main/mini and finalled on numerous occasions, also winning other mtts.

If you have now hit a wall, and u are losing those flips that u won for fun before, that is normal. Its mtt variance.

Sometimes best to take a break and reflect, then come back fighting!

Good luck tonight! #runlikejamie

I BET you run good tonight. That's how it so often pans out Jamie.

Good luck mate.

mewillows · November 2012

thanks for the replies guys, think i should clarify though.

Im not taking a break because of bad beats/had enough/its so unfair/yawn yawn yawn moans. The reason for my break is because having a full time job, having a wife and a 2yr old daughter to look after and during the year i have golf too are affecting my play and my attitude at the tables thus me making bad plays/decisions and when i do get a bad beat, it affects me more than usual.

Simon-keep up the good work mate

spurs- i dont know you but thanks for your response

wacko-you may be having a bad ukops but the run up to it has been outstanding, glgl

greg-i have had a good run since Feb, no question, i am going through a rough patch, no question and i will come back fighting, no question

tikay-legend, please dont change

SoLack · November 2012

GL - hope the break works and I hope you avoid my tables when you come back!

TommyD · November 2012

Take care Jamie. I predict this break will have November as it's start and end date

jonjo75 · November 2012

I was felling pretty similar a couple of months ago and decided to have just a week off with no poker at all ( no reading about it , no watching it, nothing) and soon after coming back I have had some pretty steady results. Might just be coincedence but I definately felt better for it.
Good luck when you come back.

Well done Jamie, excellent effort.

Lambert180 · November 2012

Nice way to go out before your break Jamie! I saw you were battering the table on the bubble when everyone else seemed desperate to cash

spurs_13 · November 2012

Well played last night mewillows. I was watching the table when the bubble approached and was extremely impressed, well done for the cash. Enjoy your break
