Message: [QUOTE="CRStals, post: 4374743, member: 161937"] Welcome to that point we all get to in the beginning - the mental block. Ryan said it best I think up above (aka Protential). Study and put the time in to work through your game, analyse where you've lost big pots and determine was it pure variance (i.e. you were 95% ahead but they hit their two outer) or, are you making mistakes (i.e. not playing your hands properly and allowing the villian the correct odds to continue). Even more, are you mis-reading your opponents and determining you're ahead when you're not? Ryan would know - he's only one a ton of tournaments and has a WSOP bracelet... Don't be discouraged. One hand in thousands of hands playing doesn't constitute the odds against you - one hand is a blip. Treat it like that, learn to put it behind you quick and move on to the next hand. Why don't you post hands that have gone awry and let the collaboration of this community help? [/QUOTE]
