Thank God this month is over. Lol

The last session of the month was a microcosm of the month in general. It was a slow agonizing death with moments of hope lol. The first 2 hours of my 10-20 Omaha session were sheer boredom. I didn't get a chip pushed my way. Not a split, not a scoop. I only entered like 5 or 6 pots but didn't hit any flops. It was pretty amazing really. Then I was dealt some good hands and missed. Then some more goods hands and got half. I rarely scooped in my session. It wasn't my hand selection because I was playing good starting hands. It wasn't my aggression. It wasn't the table dynamic(at this point in the night). It just wasn't my night. Then it got better. A few looser players entered the game and I was able to make a comeback. I started scooping some big pots and got back to even for the session. For the moment, things were looking up. Then the game got short handed and I finally came to a realization about my poker style. I am not a good short handed player. I have always thought that but I have the evidence and stats to back it up. The last 7 times a game had gone short handed, I have ended up a big loser and this session was no different. I lost $462 most of which when the game went short. I need to be aware of this and leave a game when it is 6 handed or less. My style is just not suited to play that type of game. The hand ranges go a little wider than I feel comfortable playing with at this time. As I improve, I may reconsider this, but right now it is just not for me. And I think that bring us to an important life and poker lesson: know thyself. I know short handed is not for me. I will get away from any game that goes short handed from now on. We should all think about different aspects in our lives and poker careers that are toxic to our success and eliminate them. Think about how much better off we would be? I for one will take this advice to heart and adjust my approach. I truly believe it will be one more improvement to my game that will pay big dividends throughout the rest of the year. Good luck to all of you and see you on the felt.
