In Response to Re: Rlt's Diary. : I'd disagree slightly, I think we always need to be analysing and questioning our own performance, but agree with you that becoming overly analytical and self critical when losing is a bad thing. The implication being we need to be constantly looking at strategies and trying to improve whilst staying level headed, regardless of results. Just like it's a trap to think we must be doing something wrong when losing, I'd say it's equally or even more dangerous to assume that we're playing well because we're winning. Try not to get lazy with study and self assessment when you're winning and likewise try not to panic and over compensate when losing. Keep an open mind, obsess about the process and try (hard as it may be) to make results secondary. GL, I enjoy clicking the thread and seeing how you got on at the end of each day. (although it took me a while to spot the - sign above the results, I thought you never ever lost for a while!! doh!) Posted by DOHHHHHHH
Wise words.
So easy to become complacent when winning and believe we are mere 'victims' of varience when losing.
My OP was more meant as words of encouragement than sound advice : )
Stick at it Lee, believe in yourself and keep doing what you have been, the worst thing you can do when have a bed run is begin to question yourself, natural ofc, but dont doubt yourself. Gl matey, sure you will be back on top again soon. Posted by LmfaoAllin

Gave the DYMs a miss yesterday just felt like a change so played some MTT's instead, please with how it went, although absoultely disgusted at the way i went out of the 22:40pm BH when a decent cash and a Ft was defintely on the cards,
im UTG with 20 BB i 3x with AKs, folds all the way around to the BB who james on me, hes sat with about 30BB so has me covered, but i got him tagged as abit of a maniac, i snap call as my reads tel me i should against this guy.. what monster is he 3 betting me all in with, AA?? KK?? noooooo J4os ofc, flop J4hh giving me the chance of a flush draw, but it wasnt to be..
I understand that i want this players makign moves like that and that eventually it will work out for the best and i'll Win one of the decent tournaments, but it gets frustrating when at the crucial moments stuff like that happens, probably why im better suited for DYM's
