The Doldrums

I can pretty much fit my entire poker life in this set of definitions right now.

I have lost my entire stake for November, already this month. Poof

When I talk of doldrums I refer to the kind that NEVER match up to any of your cards. No matter how good they look when you get em.

I'm usta gettin a certain percentage of flops with a monster, and I get em properly. And I don't play junk hands. I'd rather read or draw while I wait.

But this last week I got nothing but must play cards... that got raised time and again.

With just a small percentage of what I should have seen from these hands, (according to the stupid numbers) I'd be way ahead for the month.

Also, for some reason, I've been kinda playing without really wanting it...

So....alas. No more casino for this month. Well, I could get into my winnings and start my monthly bank all over again. But next months bank is already allocated. I really wanted to double up before Christmas.

I think Imma just wait out the doldrums. I do have some sleep to catch up on. Also a bet that may pay off next week. But I'm prolly gonna just get reaquainted with my couch this month.

Christmas is comming...

Sometimes taking a little bit of time off is a good thing. Reassess things. Its poker. Its gambling, and losing is part of it. Roll with the punches and come back stronger.
