Just to clarify.
I was on 6 place, out of 16 people..
where 10 got paid...

THAN I PLAY SUPER DONKY POKER!!!.
Why.. if I was playing great for 3 hours straight..
Than my girlfriend calls me.. and I play so bad...

(it might be that my uncosious know that she dont like poker)
If she liked poker I think I would not do that bad moves.. I would tell her I was playing.. And I would do well.!!

Thats my best hint for sure...
At least I dont need a doctor to clarify..
So i Guess that If I whant to play poker professionaly I will have to live alone.... no girlfriends close while im playing.. and no telephones ringing...

I too usually have done bad around friends and family who have a negative outlook on my poker or gambling habits. Dont ask me why but it does seem to have a negative impact on the way i play too, It just makes me do stupid stuff out of anger that I wouldnt normally do. Best thing I have found to help me is music. Make sure the kids are ok, Just put on some headphones, turn up the volume and block out everything but poker. Thats when i do my best, so try this out.

I was not mad because she called me.. I was mad beacuse while I was talking to hear I was playing a very fish donkey poker game... so i was mad on myself for not folding bad hands...
Im better now.. it was just a 5.5 dolar game, and 3 hours lost.. not much...

Sounds like you are not having a good day. From what i can tell your probably playing at merge, so try your luck at a different place, that might help some. If your still doing bad, just hang up your poker game for the day, and come back to play another day before you go broke.

[bouks999]

i know how you feel i have those days all the time

[bouks999]

ok well i wa splaying a bounty and was heads up had hjacks raised whe guy goes all in with q8 rivered the q so i sucked it up and called him a lucky *** and btw i always get fing rivered it sucks but its poker cut your loses and play the next day

Seems like your positive energy was bombarded by some negative energy and you shorted out.
Fix the it and get back to work.

was not her fault...
The mistake was mine..
Iven if she distracted me, I was not able to tell het that I was at an important game, she would be relly pissed of.. I think If she liked that I play poker things would be much better to my side.

Men brains construction allows to concentrate to one job at the time. Not like women, who can easily multitask: they are able to cook, feed the kid, watch the tv, and make a business phone call at the same time.
Turn of TV, radio, phone, "get rid" of girlfriend, feed the cat and take a piss before a tournament. Nothing should disturb You. The only thing You should leave on is fire alarm.
Consider game as driving: hands on the wheel, eyes on the road. Even then You can have an accident, but that will be an exeption, not the rule.

I have been there many times myself. I am kickin it hard and suddenly phone rings or knock on door and I might as well rip my modem cable out of the wall because its all over right there. now when I am in a serious game music works the best for me I block the whole world out and rock!!

Nice advise. seams music works for everybody, but not for me. If I would put a headphone would be to make total silence. I think its because music influences my thoughts, and by that influences my play.. Would make my game different listening to hard rock or soft reggae...
When Im very bored doing other things help me to keep on tre track, like watching youtube videos, or iven playing video games while playing poker...
crazy.. but it works for me! sometimes! The best for me is total silence.
