This session remind me of a WSOP episode where a guy cries after losing with the 2nd nut flush, "I did SO good for 3 days! ;( ;( ;(". I was playing so good for like 55 min, it was the last 5 min that killed me. I got really tilted on this hand: Whats your line? Gutshot + FD

The results of the hand were me raising to 2.6 and him pushing, I called, he flipped :Ac: and he held up.

I went on an uber nasty donkey tilt and decided to lose another $6 with this hand, not soon after:

If I folded the flop on the first hand, I would have had a profit of $3.35 for the session. I know its results oriented but the hand above was just uncalled for. Good thing I don't have a wireless mouse because I would have threw it across the room, like I did my cellphone.

My plan is to sit down and write out 100 times, "De-tach yourself from the hand at hand." I don't know if that is the best thing to write.



What was interesting, is that the entire session I was focused and I was aware of my feelings. I was trying to prevent myself from feeling good about being dealt certain hole cards, because I knew that would make me feel bad about folding later, if I had to. I think the same goes for feeling good/bad about a specific session. I was grinding my way up, and I was sitting pretty on some extra chips as the result of the majority of my cbets working.

I had a brief moment when I thought about quitting poker. Then after running some errands I would continue to play, and I would continue to learn. I just am upset about going through the learning curve all over again.
