Message: [QUOTE="cj2327, post: 3728277, member: 234835"] As someone who has dealt with depression for the last several years, I can say I have absolutely seen a correlation between my depression and my poker game. The more depressed I am, the more likely I am to focus on short term trends in the game instead of the long term mathematical approach. I am also more likely to get frustrated and make a big bet with long odds, with the mentality "Either I hit this inside straight draw or I'm done playing, so might as well get all my chips in." Both strategies are extremely unprofitable and frustrating to look back on. [/QUOTE]
