Message: [QUOTE="LarkMarlow, post: 1468186, member: 57665"] "Lead to"? Nope. Reveal, yes! The good news is that once revealed, these "minor problems" can either be artfully concealed or even healed. On a psychological level, I have found poker to be a journey in self discovery as has been suggested by many pros, who say to play top notch you need to know yourself better than anyone else does. You'd be surprised how many people think they know themselves but don't--they are usually the ones who, when they lose or are on a bad run, blame everything under the sun except the common denominator. Couldn't be them, could it?! So they'll keep behaving and playing the way they have been and expecting a different result. Now taking [I]that[/I] course of action, I do believe, qualifies as a defintion of insanity. I think any time we feel a little unhinged during or after a game we have a marvelous opportunity to examine not only how we played our cards, but review our mental game as well. [/QUOTE]
