Questions about Gambling and Your Nerves

[shoxy]

1. How do you handle the pressure of gambling with someone else's money?

2. Do you guys play worse or better with more money on the line?
1000$ sets for example.

3. What are things you would recommend to mentally prepare yourself before the set begins?

4. Do you play loose or tight at the beginning of the set?

5. Lastly, how do you deal with people trying to shark you and manipulate the rules to their advantage?

If I was gambling "$1000 sets", I would "mentally prepare" to be divorced if I lost......

Everybody is wired differently, some people that play for money think shit I'm down three racks I'm going to lose the set. Then you have others that don't even think about the money while they are playing sets.

That's a great way to think about. Should take away the pressure entirely.
