Are You Really Mentally Prepared for Your Next Game?

Hi. Come on in. I ordered us a big platter of beef and chicken kabobs -- and baklava for dessert. Dig in. "If I don't have time to prepare mentally, I don't have time to play." That's just one of Roy's Rules, by which I guide my play in our beloved game of poker. I came...

The Will to Win is Not Enough

Hi. Come on in. I had the deli send over a couple of those triple-decker sandwiches you like with hot corned beef, pastrami, salami, and Swiss cheese. Fill your face with one of those. Let's conduct a survey. We'll stand outside a major poker room and stop 100 players as they enter,...

The Short-Term Luck Factor

Hi. Come on in. I picked up a couple of quarts of medium-hot chili and a large loaf of sourdough bread to tear apart and dip into the chili. Start tearing and dipping. "Of course I believe in luck. How else do you explain the success of people you don't like?" (Chinese proverb) We...

Are You Hoping to Win, or Expecting to Win?

Hi. Come on in. I got us some of those really greasy fish and chips you like so much - with white wine, of course. You were asking if you should leave a medium-limit game if you get down $300 to $400. My thinking is that if you get down any amount that you consider significant, you can continue...
