I started the day decently, winning an all-in pot and along with it ~$24. Then I went to the clubhouse and in all honesty was overwhelmed emotionally both by what went on there and the commute, which was not trivial. Having gotten home, I played some more, and lost an all-in pot and ~$21. I had trip 10's and the villain had flopped a straight with KJo.
I am finding that perhaps my emotional state impacts the quality of my playing. Currently, I am still plagued by the constant music and reading seems to be the main thing that will put an end to incessant tunes. Also, I didn't have the sound on in my game (for some reason, the poker site was not playing sound) which may have impacted my decision-making. Either way, I lost what I had won in the morning.
I feel that getting used to these scenarios is part o the poker journey. With every beat, perhaps, we learn a bit more.
