Entraction: Raking it in?

So after taking a break from poker to travel the world and experience the delights of Asia I have decided to come back to civilisation and get my head back in the game.

So after taking a break from poker to travel the world and experience the delights of Asia I have decided to come back to civilisation and get my head back in the game. Prior to my exit out of Western civilisation I had become pretty jaded with onLine Poker. I could honestly swear that the doom switch had been pressed and no matter where I ran to I just could not catch a break.

After losing out to a huge number of bad beats I just felt things weren't what they once were. I had been grinding for over a year and my heart was just no longer in it anymore. It got to the stage whereby I could not work out whether it was a leak in my game or if there really was someone on the other end of the phone line pressing a doom switch. My poison of choice was a room on the Entraction network and after 3 long months of downswing I decided that enough was enough and decided to take my last Entraction rakeback payment and put it towards a plane ticket to south east Asia.

After spending a considerable amount of time working in bars and busking I decided that I had learnt enough from my various experiences to not only calm my tilted soul but to return back home and start up my life again. I had no intention of returning to poker and in fact I had decided to shelve the entire game with a means to settling down with a real full time job and aiming to build a solid lifestyle. However one of the things I learnt whilst I was away is that determination and hard work pay off and as a result maybe I should realistically give onLine Poker a second chance. What I realised was that a poor plumber blames his tools and as part of my own refusal to realise my own shortcomings I had blamed onLine Poker and the rooms I played at in an attempt to protect myself from the fact that I had not been performing to the best of my abilities.

After I had made these realisations I went back to grinding at Entraction and decided to improve my game with positive research and coaching practice instead of wallowing around in self pity because the cards hadn't come my way. With a new positive approach I have been able to stay buoyant and progress to even higher stakes, I'm no longer a high variance player and I had managed to generate myself a steady income stream which is boosted by the fact that I receive Entraction rakeback on top of my winnings. In conclusion poker is a tough game and I never really appreciated that fact, I was too arrogant and selfish, luckily for me I was able to take time out and re-evaluate my circumstances.
