no more HU

0

For the time being I am swearing off heads up poker, because my style of play leads to a very high variance match, and by the end we've usually exchanged multiple stacks. I play crazy and I want to get it in w something like pocket 5's in a 3bet pot w a gutterball. This is ridiculous and my emotions go too crazy when I am playing HU.

However when I am playing 6max and fr it is very rare for me to get an entire stack in unless I have a lot of equity. After my sessions it is pretty rare for me to have lost multiple stacks unless I took some pretty rough beats. So I am going to stick to the low variance game and more view this game as a job. I need to start steadily making pay checks every two weeks. So from now on I want to set goals for myself to make in a two week span. Set a goal for the month then break it in two and try to reach that in two weeks.

And from now on when I log on and play 6m and win a couple Bi's pretty quick and log off, then want to log back on later to make 1-2BI's more. If this is the case I either need to drop down a limit, or play fr. Play a low variance game and start guranteeing weekly paychecks. I don't want to be a compulsive gambler, I want to be a professional card player. Take the edge when it comes along and understand that you don't have to commit yourself to high variance spots. Just by getting hands in and sitting at the table I am making money, as long as i don't spew it away. So get it hands and make an hourly wage.
