Blah Poker

Well, its been a tough month for poker. I have been unmotivated to play and have been forcing myself to play just enough to fall short of the pace I want to be on as far as number of hands played. It has been about a month of up and down poker with big momentum swings and not much movement up or down in the end. I know being tired and sick has contributed. But more likely my poorish play at times is a result of a hangover from what was a breakout month for me in January. I am trying to force it at times and that is fatal in poker. Sometimes calling down in spite of a good read that says don't do it. Sometimes not carrying through at the right time. And sometimes just not getting enough cards at the right time. I thought I played fairly well tonite and ended up with a loss. It could have been worse as I was able to smell out AA while holding KK and was able to keep the hand down to a $30 pot. It definately could have been worse.

Hopefully I am feeling better tomorrow as I have a wicked head cold. Will play some tomorrow but probably not a ton. We'll see. Happy Paddys Day this week! Looking forward to a couple sips of Guinness...
