I think most of you took mike's comments on positive thinking out of context.  He isn't saying that thinking about good cards is what makes good cards come.  he's saying that you have to stay positive no matter what is happening hand to hand.  If you get negative, ie wallow in self pity over a bad beat, or let some loudmouth at the table get under your skin, then you will not be playing to the best of your ability.  You won't detect subtle actions that you should be paying attention to.  Think back to the last big win you had...On that final table down to the final two or three were you happy and thinking, i am really in a zone here, i think i'm going all the way,or were you angry and thinking, i'm going get this donks chips if its the last thing i do!!!  Point is state of mind affects how you play the game, not what cards come.  It's that positive thinking that allows you to stay patient and use controlled aggression when it's time to give someone a tough decision.  It's a zen thing.
