After grinding the FR tables on Stars .... playing the Microgaming 4e 6 max tables are just so much more fun.

Quite happy to play at this level so i can learn a little patience and build the roll upto $500 before going to 10e.

Llanlad and patience are now happily married.

I was never good with marriages ... had one and that did not go too well .

The poker one is much worse .... its been a long standing battle of wits with not many highs to compensate the numerous lows .... but we are still trying to patch things up even though we bicker every damn day.

Its all my fault really .... Miss Poker just cannot win ... she gives me a good session and im still not happy ..im always find fault in the poor women.

Lately .. ive dropped my demands on the poor women and we are starting from scratch and at the bottom ...we have played the first 1k hands and running at 42bb/100 hands ... and yet even after all this giving ... ive still got frustrated in just about every session.

Not one session has reached the hour mark ... ( my ex wife could vouch for that stat too :) ) but ive shown a loss in only one session out of eight ...

Why i feel the need to win every hand im ahead preflop with is beyond me .... but thats the way i roll i suppose.

The belated new years resolution kicks in from tomorrow !!

Yes .. i know what date it is .... but i was mega busy in January and have fallen back into old routines in February so far .... well, lets nip this in the bud right now.

Eat better, exercise, keep busy and be motivated are the key ingredients ..

Going to start this up again tomorrow as well ..

Man .. im such a friggin moron ...

Im going to have to stop playing shortly ... i absolutely dont have the mindset to play a decent volume in this game ..

It honestly matters little if im winning or losing .. i react the same way ...

All i care about is how many times i miss with Ax ... its more important than winning the hand ....

Ive hit precisely 5 aces in 56 Ax hands over A8 that have seen the flop when im the PFR...

Looking at the stats .. it seems im running at 217.86bb/100 hands in these scenarios because they are fit and fold and i can get them to fold on a lot of flops.

So in theory .. its working .. and yet its stop me playing within 30 minutes at the moment .. ive yet to play a single session thats lasted more than 300 hands yet.

All i look at is the fact almost all my big wins are with single pair hands like AA and KK ... hardly any Ax or draw type hands in sight ..

Im even running at 32bb/100 hands FFS ...

Honestly.... im fed up with MYSELF .. :mrgreen: .. i must have the worst mentality in poker ...

Its time to bring this mash graph back !

I think I'm getting the analogy now - Llan sees this poker woman flirting with everyone else in the room but they can't see what he can that in reality she's just a tease.

She might put out with an Ax flop once or twice but she prefers to lead you on with a flush draw only to let you down on the river.

True enlightenment at last!

Im not even sure what i see anymore ...

Where you lot see something standard ... i see something else .... i see all kinds of crap ... its too much to take in every session ... im just not physically or mentally fit enough to deal with it ...

Im absolutely worn down by poker ... and i dont even play that much .... almost every other hand their is something i dont agree with or something that annoys me .

I honestly question if im losing my marbles at times ....

I was talking to my ex today about this poker anger .. and she says she cannot be in the same house as me once i start to go ....she said she found it odd because im very good at controlling my emotions in just about everything else...

Poker really does bring out something in me thats not controllable ....its a inner beast that will not be tamed.

I think there is a magic mushroom growing in my brain and its hallucinogenic properties kick in once i sit at a poker table.
