If you really aply what tommy angelo says in his book and only already this 2 episodes your tilt reduces a lot,
but I found its a constant battle to contain A-game

The hardest battle in poker. I think all DC member can be very lucky with this serie

Big up for Tommy and Wayne

Do as I say, not as I do. Smile

Good luck.

You reminded me of a T-shirt I gave my Uncle Nick about 100 years ago. Nick is a major fan of Fra... oh, wait, I almost spoiled it. Okay, here's what the shirt said:

"TO BE IS TO DO." -- Socrates

"TO DO IS TO BE." -- Sartre

"DO-BE-DO-BE-DO" -- Sinatra

Do you think that your win rate would be better in the middle of the day with all the pros playing or on a friday night when you're a little tired but there are less pros / more inexperienced players playing.

I struggle with this a lot, and part of the reason i don't play in the day. Maybe I should start playing in the day because I'm more awake?

I think it's better to make playing your best and feeling your best the priorities. If you have to play when your tired in order to pay the bills, that's one thing. But if you don't, don't.

IMO there has to be a right thinking about goals/targets that embraces the planning process. Human brains have evolved to have very powerful visualization/imagination powers and an ability to understand cause/effect relationships that enable us to plan for the future in a way that no other animal can. The main reason why humans are so successful is because they can plan for the future. So I think that a concept of right thinking should embrace our ability to plan since it is fundamental to being human and our survival. And it definitely shouldn't be viewed as wrong from any philosophy, eastern or western.

Now, worrying about the future is obv pretty bad and should be avoided. But proactive thinking about the future should be embraced IMO.

I like to have poker goals for myself and I don't feel bad if I don't meet them. I like to have a direction to move in and motivation to get there and my goals do that for me.

That is exactly the case for me too. Trying to reach targets instead of thinking "I hope I'll play x-stake in a year" etc is changing my mindset.

Thank you guys for making an excellent series!

The following part about the difference between goals and targets really really reached me and made a big impact in my thinking.

AFAIK. A target is something you shoot at. A goal is something you kick at.
