Play More Poker!

So what am I going to do after having a great weekend of online poker play? Play more poker! Yes, I had a great run this weekend and I am going to continue riding the wave and play as much as possible. For some reason when poker players are running well some of us have a tendancy to cut short our run for inexplicable reasons. When you are running good you want to play as much as possible and continue to take down as much profit as possible. If you are playing in a big tournament and have a nice first, second or third finish you want to jump in the next tournament available to give yourself a shot at another score.

Trying to find and ride a wave in any activity is not always the easiest thing to do but over time we all know when we are running good and we need to exploit that run as much as possible before we return to earth. So remember when things are going your way at the poker table you want to continue to play more poker.
