Chris Ferguson on Running Bad

by Blake on January 8th, 2008

A remotely interesting, if not just apt, article by Chris Ferguson is up on the Full Tilt articles page. It’s about running bad, and how to deal, and etc.

Here’s an excerpt:

If you look at your game and believe that you’re actually playing well but are just getting unlucky, then maybe you are. Aces get cracked by lower pairs. Sets get beaten by flushes, and hands get drowned on the river more often than you might think. My advice in these situations is to walk away from the game for a while. Take a break, regroup, and come back when you’re mentally refreshed and are ready to start playing again. Don’t, however, begin changing your game to compensate for bad luck. Focus on the fundamentals, look for good starting hands, and try to play the most solid poker you can. In time, your luck will change.

Best way to think about it, hard to remember at times. But if there’s anyone to listen to on this matter, it’s probably Jesus.
