In Response to Re: Sky poker pure rat stunt : I was not trying to be Mr SmartyPants, just making the point that Tournament Poker IS very swingy. Not everyone gets that, including some who have played the game a very long time. If we can't come to terms with that, we really should not be playing the game - it can seem a brutally unfair game at times, no doubt about it. Can't accept the injustice of it? Best pack up then, imo, because it ain't ever gonna change. It requires heart & backbone to cope comfortably with the swings, & we need to be able to enjoy it when we lose, as much as when we win. If we play well & lose, so be it - that's all we can do. Having a chunter every time we suffer a bad beat is a leak, a big leak. I always recommend "The Mental Game of Poker", it has cured the problem for tens of thousands of players. Posted by Tikay10
I wish it would be a little more swingy for me. I am too tight so I cash fairly often but not so many big wins. I make about £100 a month and have been happy with that, but gotta pay for a wedding now!
Need to loosen up a bit methinks. I have some strat videos to watch, think I need to find a time to sit and watch them and do some reading. It is my birthday end of week, think I might also use some of that money for some books on strategy.
Maybe I need to get back into sngs in a big way, for a more steady profit

I'd say that is pretty good, all things considered.
If you can read up & try to improve, that's great, but be careful, tinkering with what already works well is like tinkering with a golf swing - you solve one problem, but end up creating 3 others. So your £100 a month profit might suddenly become a £200 per month loss.
I saw this earlier, by the articulate "TeddyBloat", & I think they are very wise words.....
"If you can enjoy the thrill of improbable run-outs and the ups and downs of each street then you already know more than most regs.
Enjoying the game is the biggest victory imo.
When you enjoy playing, learning and improving you'll find poker an incredibly rewarding and deep hobby".
