Stuck in a Poker Rut

Oh man, if you aren't ready for a whining blog please just click the little X now. I'm just kidding, I'm only gonna whine a little bit because I'm about to go get my party on with cardcore at the Venetian.

On to the actual whining. I'm pretty sure I mentioned in a previous blog how I'll most likely end up dealing at the Venetian for the summer deepstack extravaganze. well I got the living shit scared out of me the other morning when I recieved an email from the Venetian HR saying I did not get the job. I immediately panicked and drove to the nearest bridge. Turns out in Vegas there aren't many high bridges. Oh well for that. Not really, I just freaked out a bit. When I called the poker room they claimed that the email meant nothing and it was a stupid auto-response that was sent to everyone who applied for the position. Problem averted for now.

On the poker front I am break-even for the past few sessions after I had a +200 in the span of 20 minutes as well as an awful grind of a session that left me -200 for a profit of $0. I do math goot. I feel like I'm in a real grind and that has been limiting my sessions. I honestly only want to play when I feel like playing and when I lose interest after an hour or two it really hurts my focus and I generally end up leaving after only 2 or 3 hours of play. Anyone have any suggestions on making poker feel like less of a chore and more fun? I've never had this problem before and I think it's because of the stress of not having any form of income.

That's enough whining for me, but I do need to tell you all to check out this awesome rakeback site www.rakerobber.com It's run by a really nice guy and a good friend of mine from the FCP forums. He's done a great job with the site so far and I figure it can't hurt to send a little of my traffic his way. If you play online poker at any site you should check this service out as it can only benefit your monthly profit.
