Daily Poker Tip

Play short sessions: The human brain can only focus for so long. Different people will have different thresholds but for the most part, brain function begins to deteriorate after about an hour of straight work. If your decision making becomes obscured you will start to leak away valuable chips.

If you use some form of tracking software you will be able to find when you start to bottom out. Usually your graph will start going down after a certain amount of time. Use this information to set a time limit on your future sessions. Once you reach your limit, get up and take a little break. Go for a walk, do some push-ups, whatever. Just make sure you give your brain a rest so it can regain its focus. Little tricks like this can go a long way to keeping your bankroll intact.
