No, it doesn´t work because you don´t have the patience that it takes to perform well.

5I don't play, if I'm not 100% I prefer to take a break.

One of the most common mistake a lot of players make is playing while they know they are not 100, whether it's mentally, emotional etc, this always plays a part and trust me, it will affect your game

Do you ever play poker when you're tired, or do you avoid it completely? I find that when I'm not 100%, I tend to make more mistakes.
No and don't do it.

The two best ways to go broke at poker are playing drunk or getting married; playing drunk and tired is even worse.

Never play tired and without motivation. I usually get up, have breakfast, and play. I play fresh so I don't make mistakes. If I get tired, I never play; I'd rather do something else

I’ve tried it more than once, and both times the result was the same, I fell asleep in the middle of the tournament... It’s necessary to recognize the limits.

I'm doing it right now. I can't help myself - - Friday nights are prime time to play.
(& I'm also scrolling thru Cardschat and posting too... while 4-tabling ZOOM tables)

It happened, but it is a bad idea.
One must be rested, fed and in a good mood to play his best

I've been there. Luckily it was just a freeroll.

That's also why I prefer cash, as I can leave whenever I like.

I do play sometimes. Mostly tournament that I registered in advance, but I don’t do any good at all. I try to avoid play when I’m tried or bored 😴
