So recently I've had a bit of a lifestyle change.  I'm now home a good portion of the time and have plenty of time to play MTT's and STT's.  My question is do you have a set schedule of tournys that you play.  Do you guys limit how much you play a week?  I'm embarresed to say that I just donked off a tourny that I was totally dominating because quite frankly I am a bit burnt out and possibly playing too much.  Not making excuses for myself  but i'd like to know if you guys have any ideas or thoughts on how you plan for a week.  Thanks guys.

I think having a schedule is a very good idea.  Or at least knowing which tourneys you are going to play if you register between X and Y.

 

Treat it like a job.  Prepare, be well rested and when you sit down, focus on playing your absolute best.

I only play when I really really want to.  I know that mentally I have to be looking forward to play, or I'll just go through the motions and spew off.  Sometimes I'll play 3-4 times a week, other times I won't play for weeks at a time.
