Here is a bit of a poker story from me to you. A couple of weeks ago I came in second in an nice size NL HE tourney and won $490, since then the decks have been chilly cold. Here is an example, I played a large $5.50 NL HE with rebuy tourney a couple of days ago and went bust twice pre-break with a nut flopped straight (guy rivered a house) and with a Q 10 flush, guy had K 2.
I haven’t even been able to make the money for the past two weeks. I don’t think I am doing anything drastically wrong but I am thinking the cold decks and bad beats are making me a little gun-shy. I might be considering a two week hiatus to see if that can snap me back into a winning mind-set. What do you all think?
