Stay focused

Poker is hard. If its not variance, bad beats, and coolers, its getting too comfortable and losing that "hunger" I have had a good if not great last 5 months of poker. So when its getting to that point when i can take that next step what do i do? Buy a new laptop that wasnt 100% necassary, go play 550 buy in mtt, play 1 table of 2/5 live a few days when i could of been grinding out 12 of 200nl, just stupid/unfocused bs. I need to get that eye of the tiger back, i need to go rocky 3 style and go back to the hood. Stay hungry, put in volume, refocus on the gym, and i guess maybe even crack a book or two, instead of this month of alcohol abuse ive been doing.

The man himself 
So here we go. Its time to refocus and put in the volume i know im capable of. Its time to embrace the coolers and beats and even put some on my opponents. Ive been 12 tabling 200nl when i have played and have had mixed results. One day was a pretty boring plus 150bb day, and the other was a rollercoaster of     -300bb to up 100bb to up only 25bb. Still a winner but it is nice to play thru a bit of a downswing and not feel to affected when moving up to a new level. Im not sure if ill stick to 200nl or mave back down. My bank account is getting depleted due to my laziness so im not going to be as tolerable of a downswing, so ill just play it by ear. 

Gl at the tables and lets stay focused
