| Say you've had an extended period of 'meh-ness' and a particularly frustrating week. Would you ever quit for the day just to be able to book a good and winning session? I'm wondering if the confidence boost and wanting to play the next day is > the EV of continued play. There is also the incredible tilt if I give it back later in that session. Thoughts? |

I see merits in what you're saying. And even though I know "technically" i shouldn't...I have before and not regretted it (numerous times actually)
(sometimes booking a $2K winning day after only 1,000 hands then going out drinking > playing 4K hands and "seeing what happens imo") |

we shouldn't but it the truth is it does help unless you're stone cold tilt free machine after going months of breakeven stretches/downswings.
i def do it during bad times (unless i have jesus seats on gigantic whales) |

This is how I've been playing the past two months with reaaaally good results, although I've only put in ~50K hands in May/June and 0 in July so far. |
