Sample Chapter "Before You Start"
“WHERE” your head is at and “WHERE” you play could make the difference between winning and losing. It is my belief that most players go wrong before they even start up their poker site of choice. I ask myself before I play “WHERE”is my head? On my shoulders you might be thinking but what I mean is“WHERE” is my mind set, emotions? Am I feeling happy, sad, mad, depressed or on top of the world? I will not play unless my mind and emotions are in a good spot. Unless you can disconnect from your brain, your mind set will always drag into your game. When playing poker in general being able to disconnect from your emotions and get into a good mind set is of the utmost importance. This becomes very difficult if your mind set and emotions are in a negative place. Here is what I am talking about this is something that has happened to me and I am sure you have a similar story. I had a hard day at work everyone I talked to seemed to piss me off. By the time I got home I was mad at the world but for some reason I thought playing some online poker would make me feel better. I sat at a Sit & Go had pocket kings cracked by some trash and from then on I was playing MAD. The fact that I was already mad made it easy for me to get mad at something, stay mad at something else and loose my head. My game went out the window. I lost Sit &Go after Sit & go and took my frustrations out on my bankroll. Not a good thing to do!!! Here is my point if you think about your mind set and emotions before you play it could save you a lot of money. DO NOT PLAY UNLESS YOU ARE100% SURE YOU ARE FEELING GOOD AND HAVE A CLEAR HEAD.
Now that you know “WHERE” your head is at “WHERE” are you playing. It is one thing to start out with a clear head but “WHERE” you play can cloud your mind fast. The area you play in or “WHERE” you play is very important. You must be comfortable number one. Now by comfortable I don’t mean lying in bed with your lap top, you cannot stay sharp lying down on the job. Sit somewhere you can sit for a long time especially if you plan on playing for a long time. If you are restless or uncomfortable you will be distracted and miss a lot of useful information. Not only that the longer you sit uncomfortable the more tempted your subconscious is to putting you all in at a bad time in a bad spot so you can getup. Have something to drink and possibly some small snacks. This will also keep your head in the game and not in the fridge. The area you play in should be cozy but not make you tired and have your immediate needs at hand or close by.
“WHERE” you play is important but “WHEN” you play is just as important. Only play “WHEN” you have the time and life’s distractions are at a minimal. “WHEN” your “WHERE” is in place do you really have the time to sit and play what you want to play. Are your eyes set on a ring game? If so you can get up when ever you want but the long hours make the real money here. Are Sit & Go’s your destination? Depending on the size, this can take an hour or more.If you are anything like me, the large multi table tournaments are your game of choice. If you plan too win (if you don’t play too win don’t play) this can take several hours. Be ready to sit for the time it is going to take. If you need to be in bed to go to work or have to leave the comfort of your home and go see the world at a set time don’t put pressure on your mind set with being rushed. Poker is about patience and if you don’t have that winning will be tough. Now last but not least eliminate distractions. Only play “WHEN” there will belittle to no distractions. Kids, the spouse, TV, phone and all kinds of others can break your mind set and even mess up your emotional state. For me, and like a lot of poker players you see on TV, music seems to help sooth the mind. Most people have been listening to music in the background of their life for as long as they can remember. They can separate the music from the conscious mind and focus on the task at hand. All of the other distractions always seem to show up, ask you something, need something, demand something or even order you to do something and your mind set is now distracted. A personal note on the TV, it is a killer for me, I have to see the screen, just hearing it drives me crazy. I think turning if off can’t hurt but I am sure there are a lot of people that play with the TV on and still win.
“WHERE” and “WHEN” you play is the first piece of the puzzle you must put in place to set your self up for success. Before you play again take a minute and think about your “WHERE” and “WHEN” as it is most the time. Try and patch those holes and that alone will make you a more aware and patient poker player.
