Out of Practice

For various reasons I haven't played much poker over the last few weeks. This evening I'm going down the The Nuts so I thought I'd get in a bit of practice online at PKR.

Oh boy. I was a braying fish.

I lost at every table I tried. I can't even blame lady luck - I just played badly. Fortunately I follow the poker prime directive, so no serious harm has been done to my bankroll. Just my pride.

Still, let's look for the positive reframe. If being out of practice means I play badly then it follows that the practice must have been working. My game must be improving overall. Four months ago I'd have lost far more and wouldn't even have known why.

Which is a good incentive to keep practising and keep learning.
