Mental Game

I have been practicing maybe 2x a week for 2-3hrs each time for the last 2 weeks for an upcoming tournament in Tulsa. Before that I didnt get to shoot but maybe once every 2-3 weeks. I was at Magoos last night practicing 9 ball with a friend and was shooting pretty good. I ran the rack 4-5x over the course of 4hrs, and I ran 3 racks in a row once. So I know I can shoot half assed, I am guessing a strong C weak B, but my mental game just sucks.. When I am in a tournament, im not nervous or anything, I just seem to lose my basic fundamentals. I find I make silly mistakes like raising up just as I shoot, or some other silly crap like that and its just aggrivating. What do you guys do to make your mental game better? I hope to do good in this tourney, but dont stand a snowballs chance in hell unless my mental game is there. Any ideas or suggestions on what little info I have provided? Thanks Shawn
