Amazing what some pizza, one beer and general sleepyness can do to your game. It kinda sucks to get sleepy just when the fish start to come to the ponds for a saturday night swim, but when you're not playing your A- B- or even C-game you're better off getting some rest.

umm... hate to be a donk, but why don't you tell us what happened (after you put them allin) ?

Last time I was extremely tired playing poker, I was in a tourny for over 4 hours. It was about 6 AM where I live, and everyone else was at about midnight...
I still managed not to mess up... untill heads-up that is... :?

one time I fell asleep while i was playing woke up and was 30$ poorer

way too much action on a limped pot to go crazy with TPTK
i think that is what halvsum is saying

one dude is probably on the flush draw and the other hit his set
good luck


being paradise i put one on a flush draw, most other 50NL tables it would be sets all around

u are playing with a four color deck right?

This is probably some of the best advice ever. I'll put it top 3.

1. Play within your bankroll.
2. Don't tilt.
3. Hit more sets.
4. Don't play when you're tired (I guess you could throw this in with don't tilt?)

ok, top 4. :)

Exactly. Which I'd have known had I not been multitabling with my eyes half shut. Indeed, one was on a flush draw and the other had a set. :shipit:

Why don't we throw them both plus "Don't play when you're drunk" in with "Don't play when you're not mentally ready to play"?

Cuz that's kinda vague?...

I know it's true.. and I always try my best to assess how mentally ready I am.. but it's not always so easy. I can usually tell I'm sucking horribly when I make horrendous plays (and then I quickly quit).. but then some damage has already been done.

agreed, when im tired im just a nut peddler who can flop all sorts of hands and get stacked saying "whatever..."
