i think accepting that there are bad beats out there doesn’t mean i’m not allowed to be angry
of course i can be angry, if it doesn’t affect my game everything is cool …
i never understood that kind of approach to suppress my own emotions (although its quite in fashion now)

I don’t really think of it as suppressing as much as recognizing the, for lack of a better word, silliness of getting angry about it. I mean, if you have to commute to work a 9-5 job (and maybe you do), you know there is going to be rush hour traffic. Are you going to sit in your car cursing and screaming every day, or just accept it and deal with it? It’s the same way with bad beats, they aren’t an anomaly, they are a routine, normal part of the game that you should expect and be prepared for.

I like playing cash games, but not at he same time as tournaments. There are so different mindsets in those – especially if you’re deep, which you probably are when the tables start running out – and I don’t seem to easily be able to use both at the same time.
Instead, I play the spin’n’goes. These are 3 person hypers, so the push-shove game of late mtts translate directly over. I even seem to do slightly better in the spin’n’goes at the end of mtt sessions than when I have tried playing those in short sessions.
