I Deserve To Loose...but Winning


....slightly


So I'm just starting to play some very low stakes money games (online). At
first I just played a couple to "get aquainted". I had read some books,
played for play money, knew a little. And I knew I wasn't likely to win. My
plan was simply to play a couple, willing to take the loss if I had to,
simple to get started.

Well, I did ok, and even one a couple $$.

Now I've started review my hand histories. Man, I play very well for many
hands in a row. I play tight. When I have a good hand I sometimes get good
value out of it.

BUT, after a while sometimes I totally IMPLODE and do something STUPID. It's
amazing how great looking at these hand histories is: After a game...even
just after a bad hand I'll think, "Well, that didn't work out too well. I
probably made a mistake there a little." Later I write comments on the hand
history like, "MISTAKE: Why am I calling this at all, much less raising????
Why am I even IN this hand??"

Anyway, amazingly, I'm still just SLIGHTLY up in money. And from looking at
my histories I'm pretty sure I'm going to get better at avoiding the dumb
things I do. So I have hope.
