After playing what i think is good poker for a long time im now starting to make misstakes. Looking back to the last mount i can say taht i have got very little out of playing good, i have had the right cards at the wrong moments, and i busted out just when the big money was near, or before the bubble. Earlier this year everything was fine, got my share of badbeats but i still won tournamnets and getting good results. Thats over now, i just dosent win anything :(

My bankroll is in bad shape and thats makes me think alittle to much about the money when i play " i need to get into the money, it would be great for the bankroll if i won" and so on. You never ever play good if you are not 100% focused on the game, the money shouldent be on your mind until the last hand is played.

Im getting alittle unpatience when i play,nit when im start to play, then everything is as normal, but when i get my first badbeat im not as good to take it as before, its like this "it doesent matter how i play, i get busted out any way. Was in the top of a 350 field tornmanet, around place then when i had AK and the flopp was AK3, i pushed the other guy allin, he had a3, the river was a 3 and i was down in the middle of the field, didnt recover from that and didnt reach the money.

Then i stared to do misstakes, got KK in a sng, 6 seats, one player raised to 300, we both got around 3000 and the blinds was 30/60. What i should have done was to call, or maybe a small reraise to se how strong he thought his hand was, but i knew he had a good hand so i didnt need extra information. If i just had called i could have got to see if there were and A on the flopp and moved allin after that, but i went allin direct, he had AK and the flopp had an A. Im not thinking clearly when right now.

The other misstake was in a sattelite to Sunday hundred grand at Pokerstars, 34 players get the ticket, i was 39 out of 40 and had the bigblind, 10 7c and 2 clubs on the flopp, 2 players before was raising, fold would have been the right move and try to survive until the bubble burts, but i gambled, and i never do that. Whent allin with only 30% chance to hit the flush, and i was out, so stupid.

I didnt play yesterday and maybe i rest today also, i think i needs to recharge the batteries.

A little clip from WPT, i now how he feels :)

And a classic:
