After 2,5 years of playing poker, after 2 million hands, the same mistake again and again. It's like sometimes I'm afraid to win. If I win 3 or 4 Buy Ins early in the day, I'm willing to lose the winnings so easy. It's like the fishy thinking "It's not my money, I'm playing with the winnings". No! the winnings are now your money and if you gamble with winnings you gamble with your money so your are a gambler.
I'm sure that everybody thought this way sometime in his poker career. You have to think that everytime you sit down and play, your bankroll is changing. Don't think how much your bankroll was yesterday. Thinking that way is a great way to burn your profits and your winrate.
Each time you sit your ass down to play, the variables are different. Maybe it's not quite different, but it's different. You have to think each time you play individually. I'm talking only for bankroll management here. Poker is one long session and the results comes after big samples so you can't think individually about your results for every session for sure.
Just think about your bankroll when you sit to play and not if your are winning or loosing today. Trust me. It doesn't matter. It can only harm your game.
