Question for the experienced

[Burt Saddo]

I seem to be struggling quite a bit lately, had some bad beats but the majority of it is bad play and I am struggling to find any discipline and patience in MTT's. Do you think a person's game can benefit from taking a break for a while and stripping your play down and analysing it a bit like the top golfers do?

Re: Question for the experienced Burt I went through a very bad patch a few months ago. I basically lost 75% of my bank after winning quite a lot. I decided to take a break and didnt play poker for about a month. I then returned and played a few small MTT and small cash games. I have now built up my balance again. Admittedly it's not as high as it was but its coming back. My advice would be to take a break. Then start again from the beginning with low amounts. Also what you have to remember not everyone can be a god poker player, not everyone can win. Also ask yourself am i a good player and where can i improve.
