I can't really brag about having great objectivity here, it doesn't take much to see why I'm rocking a 50% win rate lately. It smacks me in the face every time I play, yet it seems like my play has been conditioned in a way that I can't stop myself. I'm sure this leak is a common problem that some of the great players on this site have had to overcome so I would love to discuss some ways to correct this.........
I call way too light, at the wrong times. This is tied in to me not trusting my notes - I'm great at identifying player types and adjusting accordingly but there will always be a hand or two in each match where I seem to completely disregard my notes and keep slamming the call button. I can't help myself, I love that call button. It's like a drug. It's like sex. But not good sex... Like, sex with a crack whore you picked up in the alley. There's that initial rush but afterward you're like, "Oh my fuck... What was I thinking? I'm smarter than this. What's that itch? Now I have to get checked out..."
Are you guys still reading this? I wouldn't be.
Anyway, I don't know what my deal is. I'll play 99% of the match smart, playing in a manner that is ideal against whatever player type I am up against, and then maybe I get bored when matches drag on too long and I just start mashing call hoping for the best even though I KNOW, based on the player type, that I am making bad calls.
So what are we talking here, doctors? More pills? Some cream to go with that crack whore fuck?
play 3 or 4 tables together ...so u won't get bored and stop doing hero calls everytime (but keep doin it sometimes when u feel u have to)
hero call is my favourite move (to apreciate the good things u just need to not over do it)

i completely disagree with the 3 or 4 tables comment.... if u know ur making mistakes while u play, imo... u should be concentrating on 1 table, fixing the leaks. The very fact that u hav identified the leak is a start, instead of just saying.... I am just running bad waaaah waaaah waaaaah! I hav been forcing myself recently to be more patient, and wait for the mistake, instead of trying to force the win... yes, ur games may go longer but the mistake will come at some point.

I'm really not sure what to tell you. If you know it is a mistake then you just need the discipline to stop doing it. Some of the "how do I stop tilting" threads probably have similar advice to what you are looking for, but helping people with these things has never been my strong point.
After calling enough of them you should start to understand why it is or isn't a good call. Making mistakes sometimes isn't necessarily bad if you are learning from it, but not learning from your mistakes is as bad as not knowing that it is a mistake in the first place.
multi table ....trust me
I would be worried that if he starts multitabling it will just magnify how often he looks at these scenarios as "fuck it, its just one table."
he ll be lucky ... no choice
u might be right .... what he needs is a psychologue
What I need is a lobotomy. Do they still those?
