Going the Distance
The past week was a rush for me, as most of you know. But as all of you know, luck and rushes can only bring you so far.
I was browsing at cardplayer.com and saw this article about bluffs, facts and logical assumptions. This exerpt from the text got me thinking...
CHANGE OF SUBJECT (AND A DISCOURAGEMENT TO NEGATIVITY): Most winning poker players have a positive attitude about their game. Losers tend toward dwelling on Murphy’s Law, which states that anything that can go wrong will. But West’s Law in that area brings you a note of cheer: “Considering the infinite number of things that could go wrong at the poker table, and the small number of things that do go wrong, you’re actually doing quite well."
You feel better already, don’t you? You’re welcome.
About Bluffing, Facts, and Logical Assumptions - Some thoughts to ponder for poker success
by Roy West
Well, at least I knew I was on the right track. I do not dwell on the bad parts of my game that much and I do have the positive attitude about my game. I try to improve on the bad parts of my game so that I can be better next time I sit down and play.
Like what NickG said, about the EDGE. Use the edge to win, improve your game and win! If you don't win something must be wrong right?
Now, I'm going the distance, continue to improve my game and be extra hard on myself so that I can notch more wins and roll the roll. Playing POKER, is what its all about.
Daniel: Hey, what kind of belt do you have?
Miyagi: Canvas. JC Penny. Three ninety-eight. You like? [laughs]
Daniel: No, I meant...
Miyagi: Daniel-san... karate here. [he taps his head]
Miyagi: Karate here. [he taps his heart]
Miyagi: Karate never here [points to his belt] [...]
Whatever it takes.
Fish....OUT!

"The great mistake is to anticipate the outcome of the engagement. You should not be concerned on whether it ends in victory or defeat. Let nature take its course, and your tools will strike at the right moment."

I've come to realize that poker really is a microcosm of life itself. It's amazing how the wisdom of the ages can be applied to the game of poker.
"The highest technique is to have no technique. My technique is a result of your technique; my movement is a result of your movement. One should not respond to circumstance with artificial and "wooden" prearrangement. Your action should be like the immediacy of a shadow adapting to its moving object. Like sound and echo. Your task is simply to complete the other half of the oneness spontaneously."
- Bruce Lee
