HINTS AND TIPS - Poker Tournament Distractions - Poker Tip on Launch Poker.com
By Brian Cherry, Oct 12, 2009
Today’s poker tip is about distractions. Yoda had a lot to say about attachment that poker players, amateurs and poker pros alike, could benefit from. Basically the little green pain in the butt got on his high horse and preached about the ability to just let things go. Players who are successful at the World Series of Poker or European Poker Tour levels couldn’t function if they agonized over every chip they lost. The idea of getting “their money” back would drive their game to distraction, and they would suddenly become worthless, tilting, pushovers for the rest of the tourney. While he had a lot to say about attachment, Yoda didn’t have quite as much to say about dealing with distractions overall. When Luke lost his concentration Yoda simply yelled at him and poked R2D2 with a stick. There is probably better advice regarding distractions out there than that.
Many of us who work in the poker media industry will see the players who have survived a day at a World Series of Poker event also hanging around a local bar at closing time several hours later. This would be okay if they had been eliminated and had no firm plans for the next day. The problem is that many of them were still in the poker tournament and needed to be fresh for the next day’s competition in order to have a chance at winning a WSOP bracelet. Most poker players are very diligent about shutting out distractions at the table. They tend to be less skilled at avoiding the distractions that a city like Vegas has to offer overall.
When you travel to a poker tournament, whether it is the WSOP, LA Poker Classic, Aussie Millions, etc, there will be distractions that the hotel and host city have to offer. Just remember that a big tournament is not a sprint. It is more like a marathon with some cross country elements thrown in just for fun. Successful poker pros are generally do not neck deep in Grey Goose and cocktail waitresses at 4am, before the next day of the tournament. They generally get their rest and save the unbridled debauchery for when it is all over. Keep the tortoise and hare in mind when you travel to a tournament, and remember what happened when the hare took a nap before the race was done.
