Poker, Life and the World

"Next time, there will be no next time”, Eminem sings in one of his songs “Love the way your lie”, ft Rihanna.“  It's like in poker when you are playing a hand wrong. You can never take it back. The good news though is that you can learn from it... Well you can, its another question if you really will... mmm. 

The previous weekend I had online at the poker tables was really a warning bell for me to not play poker when sleepy and irritated. I know that I've been saying this before to myself, but it feels so waste to sleep away prime time. So I sit at the tables and gets even more frustrated and tired when the hours run by. Clicking wrong, thinking wrong and playing wrong. Ghaa!

But on Monday I decided to take a power nap before I sat down playing. It's like re-booting a computer and take away all that unwanted cached memory that have been packing up the whole day in my brain. Suddenly I feel more relaxed, in the zone and happy to play. Oh yeah and winning hands making better decisions.

So I cant take back the poorly decisions I made during the weekend. But I can at least learn from my mistake to not to play tired and try to at least have a power nap before poker sessions.

Time will tell..
