Poker Strategy - Life of a ProTirednessIt is 1:00pm and the games are drying up and I must admit to no longer feeling my best now. The early start is beginning to take it's toll as one by one the yawns start to creep in. This started to happen just after midday and I have now played for a full hour while not being at my peak. Why have I done it?...I have no idea! A bad beat in a $600 pot is my signal to call it a day. I am happy with the result not just because of the $2150 win but because my reason to rise at 5:30am seemed justified as the level of play did not seem as strong as it had been previously. I log off at 1:10pm and end what has been a very good session, I need to rest now from the constant glare of the screen. Sometimes I wonder just how people who work in computer jobs actually do it. Depending on how I feel, I may go back online in the early evening and play some no-limit on a different site. But if I do this then there is no way that I am repeating the early start tomorrow, that feels too much like work to me. I tend to alternate my play between limit and no-limit hold'em to prevent the game from becoming a bore. Relentless ring games can get to be pretty tedious and this is why many players play tournaments. But I have always preferred the flexibility and steady income that ring games provide. If I am not feeling at my best or I want to stop playing for any reason then I can, whereas tournaments kind of lock you in to playing for a set period of time. I guess that this means that I will never get to be on TV but I can sure live with that. Articles Within This Category |
