|  Last night was one of those nights..... 
			
			I am learning about the swings. I have said before, I don't have a huge bankroll. Thanksgiving night, I had a HUGE night (for me). I won $130 bucks. Next day/night, I lost 70. Slowly built back up the next few days until I had doubled the $130 I had won by Monday night. Last night, I couldn't buy a hand. When I had a pocket pair, I never flopped a set and at least three times, someone had a higher pocket pair. Just one of those nights. I dropped close to $100. Got back up this morning, put on my coffee, and played a few hands. Won a little of it back before work....

			Man, I've had a rough week.  It's the game we play.   Where are you in Florida? |

			If you feel yourself on a downswing early, do you think it is best to get out, and try later on or the next day; or should you try to grind it out and get back on track??  I find it hard to stop if I am losing early.  I have only had one or two really horrible days.

			It's all one big session, so what I did on the previous hand(s) has nothing to do with how I'm playing this hand.  I quit when I'm tired or don't want to play, but my earnings really don't have much say. |

			I've read and heard this lots of places, but I think it's just human nature to look at it as separate sessions.

			In no-limit, there have been multiple occasions where I've lost 1,2 even 3 buy-ins before I've turned things around to make a profit for the evening. I usually only quit when I'm getting tired, not because I'm losing. |

			This past weekend was really good to me.  But, between yesterday and today, I dropped close to $200. Sucks when AQ loses to A8 when 2 aces hit the flop. Sucks when AQ loses to T5 when there's an Ace and a 5 on the flop. --> And yes, I did raise both hands pre-flop. I can't say that I'm playing badly, because I'm not... I don't lose many hands, but when I do lose, they seem to be expensive. All's well that ends well I guess - back to battle.
