Quality or Quantity?

When I first started playing poker it was in pubs around the place and I would play a minimum of 5 days a week and sometimes 6 and 7 days a week. Over the past 6 months I taken a step back from playing so much poker because I am looking for a quality rather than quantity and it became obvious to me that because people in pubs were mainly playing for fun it was not the quality poker I desired.

This is not a put down of pub poker, I just that my game was going nowhere and in some cases getting worse because of the poor play I was encountering in pubs. So now I only play at my own home game and in tournaments into bigger tournaments either online or at my local casino.

While I dont play as often my play has improved markedly because of the players I play against.

Has anyone else overloaded on too much poker before and had to rein in their play?

I love poor players, thats where I make my money usually. Sure, when the fish calls his flush draw down to the river with odds crying at the sidelines and hits it, it can drive you mad, but it seems to me the rest of the time he is just handing money over to me, maybe im wrong but thats my outlook.

as for playing too much poker, I think if I overload myself I start to get mentally tired and start making mistakes, so from that aspect I will only play a few hours a day. (who am I kidding, I play 5-6 hours a day if I dont have class)

If you play a lot of tables, your winrate will decrease, but your total profit will increase.

FYP

haha ty sir
