The mental part of poker when a person feels they have taken enough of what is happening to them when the negative experiences take their toll. That is one of the toughest opponents to play against, the one opponent that is not setting across from them but is actually themselves.

Balance, taking time away each day is also productive for the brain to stay fresh for example, walking or mowing the lawn if a person is walking instead of riding. This helps the frontal lobe of the brain too relax to help spawn creativity. The mindless exercise of doing something that each of us can do without thinking helps promote creativity; this helps this player think about poker while doing something away from poker that will promote growth within my game.

Reading books instead of playing, this helps with a few things confidence, new information, and fixing mistakes that might not have presented themselves otherwise. While taking a break is when this player started reading other interests related to poker philosophy for example, and this also gives peace of mind; also confidence for balance of poker and life as an example.

Returning to having fun is probably the most important especially because the challenging part of poker is to continue to have fun. This is the reason to challenge my game to get better each day and gather as much information as possible for hopes that the game continues to be fun as long as we all play.
