Re: Re: Worst Day of Poker Ever

I was browsing through poker articles on the web today and found this quote that is very appropriate considering how yesterday went.

From Pocket Fives

"The last thing you have to do to increase your bottom line is to ignore short term results. Everyone takes bad beats; everyone has variance. It’s simply unavoidable. In the long run, everyone is dealt the same cards. The profit comes in playing them better than your opponents. It’s all about how you view it. You need to be impartial with your results, at least while you’re at the tables. Be happy when you play well, and look to improve when you don’t. If you worry less about your short term-results, and more about playing correctly and finding your optimal conditions, the profit will inevitably follow. "

While we all know this, it's always good to read it or have someone remind you.
