Message: [QUOTE="acemenow, post: 4794843, member: 215788"] HeyPsychovas, see you often at the tables and learned to respect your play early on. Cheers! I experience it as well and wind up pushing the F-it button pretty quick, when it happens a few times in a row. Used to last for a week or two. What changed for me though I still experience it is the following: 1 - If I truly get sucked out on like with a two outer that puts me 3m or lower I pick a hand and shove back in position with any 2 (I know this is supposed to be bad), But this does two things for me 1) I get lucky with either good cards or a favorable flop or 2) I walk away for a few minutes and calm down and start another mtt. :tomato: If I am still in it after that I go into shove fold mode (TAG) until I get up to a 5m or better. Right or wrong my perception is I am bound to lose but I will go down swinging. :viking: If I get past the 5m I usually calm down and get back on track to lose later in the tourney but its these times that I find its best to test ones patience. If I lose before the money on another suck-out and its still bothering me. Then I just stick to $10 freerolls and play like a maniac to get it out of my system and/or switch sites. If its following me site to site I know its me and evaluate my game or walk away for a night or two. If its still following me then I just take a more mathematical approach to the game and get more nitty/TAG centric. Figure if I am going to lose I am going to try different strategies. Last weekend I got pissed because this paid SNG R/A a guy was pushing heavily and I finally had a decent hand I pushed him all in. I had KQ s two callers AJ and AQ respectively and the maniac called with 87o and hit an 87 on the flop and turn taking us all out. Normally I wouldn't shove KQ so early especially in a money SNG unless I was planning to rebuy. But I let his previous actions dictate how I responded and worse learned he will call with anything (IMO) I am sure someone can make a case for calling with 87o after 3 all-ins are in the pot. But I know him and I also know he was prepped to rebuy if he lost so its a different strategy and I got sucked into it because I got emotional, overplayed my hand which would have lost to one of the other players anyway. He is a challenge and a very good player so I have learned to respect his game over time and I read him correctly he just failed to respond the way I wanted him to. The other callers did not help either lol My point is for myself I know its happening but I am beginning to see sometimes I perceive it happening when in fact I am putting myself in bad risky situations even though I may be ahead at preflop or flop . IDK I still have a ton to learn just my opinion for now at this point in time ~ 10 minutes from now I may change my mind lol [/QUOTE]
