Default knowing when to quit...

ever been in a position that time and time again you are dealt cards they are really poor starting cards so you fold and then the board gives you the winning hand? And then when you are dealt with good cards you get beat by a low pair?

This seems to happen quite a lot in my experience and when it does happen i have come to the conclusion sometimes it is worth folding AK or high pocket pairs until that period of bad luck turns for the good. The hard part though is knowing when to quit and when that low (tilt) has passed.

Playing poker is like a relationship...poker being your wife/husband/girlfriend/boyfrined.. you have your good times and you have the bad times, but the strongrest relationships are those that can ride out the bad times. Its a case of excepting you will hit a bad patch, so the only way to avoid the inevitable... loosing big time!.. is knowing when to quit.

Im positive poker was invented by a women... No matter what i try or decide to do im either always caught out or always frigging wrong

lol. Fut.
