Well, you have to be discipline. It´s not that easy. What I do is: If I'm not getting nice hands, or If i'm not doing well with bluffs, I simply change my table. Simply like that. Sometimes It's just because of the players that you are facing and not because of you. If you are feeling desperate, without concentration simply change your table and try again with other players.

I will give you advice me which helps me a lot
Find a quiet place where you will not bother anyone and they constantly ask what the hell are you doing on your computer.
Focus он the game анд the other players and always consider what cards to play.
Good Luck!

when I start my session I try to cut myself off from everything that can distract me as television, cell phone, among other things. and try to keep me focused on the tables!

Start by thinking about what you do IRL when you want or need to concentrate on something more than usual.

Are you getting bored when you get unplayable hands? For me, I just like staying engaged in the hand even after I fold. I like to look at the stats of my opponents, look how their playing the hand, predict who I think is going to win the hand and what I think they have etc. Also I find I play better when I have some music going in the background.

You make a strategy before you start the tournament and do your best to keep track on it. Remember why you made this thread in the first place. Nobody can give you a hint or an advice, since everybody works out their own mechanic. Everyone gets bored and start doing some bad plays. You need to find your own motivation.

Most important thing to do is to eat well, sleep well and try to stay relaxed like dont get uptight in your personal life or let aspects of your personal life get into your game.

i see all these young kids who are good for sure win tournaments they think poker is about the party lifestyle going out drinking other gambling also. And they are like hey man im on a massive down swing and a dont know why

its like Quit drinking!! Eat fresh clean food and your mind will be fresh, clean focused.
if you want enjoyment dont mix it take days out and allow a day to recover and re group your mindset

Discipline is huge in poker. If you aren't able to focus, you are going to have a bad time.

Sometimes the mind does tend wander or whatever. If you need to, take a break for a bit. Get up, walk around, and come back when you are able to focus. If you are going to get bored and start playing poorly, you will loose a lot of chips. If you get up for a bit and come back when you are ready to focus, you may lose a couple blinds, but it will be impossible to lose your whole stack.

One thing I try and do when I get bored is try to improve my game. Watch the other players, watch their betting patterns, and put them on ranges and see how close you are. Maybe watch for betting patter tells. Find something to work on during those down times that will help your game. Turn your boredom into a positive.
