Summer doldrums

August 16, 2007

Well, I don’t have a lot of Poker news, insights, suggestions etc.

The reason for that is that I really haven’t been playing too much. Yes. I still hook up with the Skype crew once in a while and play the occasional SNG or small Tourny, but other than that, nothing.

I haven’t been winning every one and I haven’t been getting beat by bad beats at inopportune times, just “average”.

My bankroll is going up in small amounts and not down so I should be happy with that.

I just haven’t had the “feeling” lately.

Last night, I went over to the computer logged on to Skype and checked to see who was on. Ash was on, Dog, Mike, and Netty. I just sat there for a few minutes thinking if I even wanted to let them know I was on.

Nothing against them, I really like hanging with them. I just didn’t have any energy or drive to play.

The last time I played was Sunday. It was later in the evening and I missed the league games but I played in a few SNG’s and played in a Stud tourny. Actually, the Stud tourny was a nice change of pace. I made it to the money but didn’t win. Making it to the money was good for me since I rarely play the game though.

Anyway, I was sitting at the computer thinking “do I log in or don’t I log in”.

I ended up not logging in. I left the computer and went over to watch some TV.

My wife and I got invited to a friend house in Northern Wisconsin this weekend. Maybe I should go and take a break. The funny thing is that their house is about 10 min. from a Casino..hmmmmm

The weekend is quickly approaching. Maybe I will have built up some energy by then. either way, I will get on Skype and hang with the crew.

Good Luck on the felt.

    Oooooh hon welcome to the club.. I really do know the feeling, Take the break you need, earned and come back whenever you feel it’s right. We’re still gonna be here when you do.

    Sometimes i do just log on to skype and not play just cheering the others and that feels good to.

    Big hugs

    Yep, I think you have hit the wall called disinterest. Not only have I been there…. I’m STILL there! I think there must be a bug going around! :)

    Hopefully it won’t last long and we’ll see ya back soon.

Got something to say?
