Weekends in Chicago = guaranteed fun
Another awesome weekend has passed by.
The only thing bad about weekends in a big city, is that you can really get carried away and go out so late that it almost wastes the entire next day's afternoon. I didn't get much poker playing in at all this weekend... just ended up playing a few sessions of cash games and played the Sunday Million today.
I ended up busting out of the Sunday Million in 1,782 place out of 8,341... so I finished about 500 places out of the money. The hand I busted on was pretty standard. I shoved about 10 big blinds from the CO with A7o and got snap-called by the SB's KK and it was game over for me.
I'm going to the office tomorrow afternoon and going to get my grind on. My focus of each session from here on out is to improve as a player and play my best, results be damned. No more looking at results. I have said it a million times before but I always end up peeking due to curiosity... well curiosity killed the cat and it's killing my win-rate as well.
I'm going to borrow a sweet poker mantra from a fellow blogger. I visit his blog sometimes and he seems to have a great grasp on the mental game. Here's the link to his blog. Well said, sir.
His "poker mantra"
"We are owed only one thing as poker players: the opportunity to make the best possible decision at each junction in every hand that we play."
Well said, sir.
