Returning to the game I love

Save for Later

I think I have come to the conclusion that writing here is just cathartic. I have been steadily returning to playing more actively and am slowing trying to find my confidence again. I figure that I will come back and write as I attempt to find myself and see what happens as I go back and learn the game I love again. Things are finally settling down for me after moving and the addition of the up coming Poker Maximus on Merge have provided a very nice incentive for me to return to playing. I am really resisting the urge to refer to it as grinding, because that has such a negative connotation. I don't want to come back to the game and light money on fire for the sake of playing to occupy time. I want to win again. I was hitting a stride. Finding my style and becoming comfortable with myself at the tables, then the break. Now it is time to find that guy again. I liked him. He was fun. Dashing even. Regardless he was playing with confidence. Comfort in situations. Seeing the flow of the table and starting to develop a real situational awareness at the poker table. Experience depends on practice and time and I seem to have forsaken both a bit during the last several months. Thankfully I didn't ditch my TPE subscription and kept watching. I'm by no means as sharp a player as I was then, but I can be and that is what I need to remember. So here I am on the path to find myself and victory once again. Finished second in the 6th Cent last night so it was a start. Trying again to grab lightning in the bottle tonight in the micros again. Feeling better with a week to go to Poker Max. Oh well, here's to finding myself again!
