Keeping Records

Before keeping a record of the game play (and later studying), a few times the King played some marathon sessions of limit hold 'em.  Usually, these sessions were long in order to get even.  Getting even is still a preoccupation, but with an improved gameplay, the ups and downs are not as steep.  Getting even is not recommended and is somewhat controlled by patience - waiting another day or week with controlled no-tilt play.  Having records help in weathering the downturns because long term results are the important results and if studying more than playing, the earnings will not even out and be up there. 

Doubt is a terrible thing to have, was 16 months of winning due to luck and is that Perfect Storm downswing in the future.  The only cure for doubt is to keep improving in some way and to review the present gameplan.
