Operation: Switch from 6-max to FR

[Jason]

For realz? Heh, well, with my advice, you get what you pay for Sure, get some more advice from other guys and gals. I suspect they'd tell you the same thing. And while we're on the subject, here's some more unsolited advice. I think you self-sabtoge yourself. Look at your history. You do well @ 6max, don't heed a good stop loss, and fail. You do well AGAIN, do some crazy deviation from your normal routine by moving your roll to full tilt AND move up stakes, and fail. Now you do well @ full ring, drop 10 buy-ins (I mean seriously?!? 10?!?), and fail. You appear to be your own worst enemy. I'm sure you'll recover from this, too. But, when you start doing well AGAIN, what will you do THEN to flip it and reverse it?

Maybe I'll just switch to HU next but I'm sure you're an expert at that too. Do me a favor and stay out of my OP. I'll get my help from somebody else who is not so "superior"

Hey ya Big Ape - Sorry for the downswing. Something that 'might' help you get over it for now; Go to the Tilt forum and read a little bit. You'll see you're not alone dealing with crap like this. It might sound stupid, but it's helped me before.

Also, I just read Elements of Poker and Angelo stresses the importance of being "a good quitter" and he says it's a skill to be learned and one that can be practiced. By that, he means that we should learn to quit playing a session as soon as we notice that we're not at our best. That could be because of tilt, being tired, being hungry, being stuck, not having fun, etc. It's important because most players are not good quitters and they suffer for it. You can practice by taking breaks at a certain predetermined time, regarless of running well or poorly or quitting a session after a predetermined length. The point is to take control and practice quitting. It will help you for years to come.

April Wat?

It's all BS. I didn't lose 10 BIs and Jason was in on it.

I intended to keep this going with Jason more yesterday but I couldn't get back online until late last night.

I did get some good advice though on tilt, which I still have the most trouble with.

Don't worry so much about ranges and volume and pot odds. Concentrate mainly on playing spades and hearts and you'll be ok. Clubs have huge reverse implied odds, possibly repsonsible for your downswing. Good luck dude.

Oh diamonds are a very narrow range to rep so don't bluff on diamond boards.

Too late to delete my post?

Oh well, at least now I know Jason didn't turn into a dick. GG.
