Commentary:
Well I remember reading a post like this from Eston. But poker is hard work . . . not to be taken lightly. I fucked off for the whole month of February except the last two days. Then I went on a 3k losing streak and slowly grinded my way back. Back in November I was losing money and talking about how I was building my poker muscles. I had a theory that I could get use to losing money. That I could get so good at poker that I could lose some, and still play good poker. After the 3k loss, I realized that I can't. I will always want to make money and will be upset when I lose. Now, I have no problem losing $500, but after that, I go nuts. Unfortunately, there is no end to me losing money. It's just a part of the game.

I've also learned that I'm just going to have to be more disciplined. I can't play more than 3k hands a day, and I need 2 days off a week to prevent burnout.
