It's spring time....NO BAD BEATS PLEASE!!!
Isn't it funny how February just seems to get everyone down, then March comes and everyone seems to cheer up? February was a bad poker month for me...it was definitely a long down swing....nothing seemed to hold up for me. Then, with the weather this week, I just seemed to cheer up, got an extra bounce in my step so I log on to PokerRoom last night to finish clearing a bonus and run into this hand: (Sorry the PokerRoom hand history is ugly to look at!).

oceanrunner., loses $0.50
Big_E_67, bets $7.50, collects $21.80, net $14.30 (not a bad net for .50/1.00 limit!)

noahbegrann1, loses $0
mibtryt, loses $5.30
313electro, loses $7.50
spden_99, loses $0.50

I wonder how much our overall mood affects our play..I mean it's difficult to screw up a hand like this but during my bad run in Feb I wonder how much was mental? I'm sure mood and state of mind has a great deal to do with how we play. It sure is nice to see the days getting longer and the temperature rising....and keep those quads coming please!!!!
