i used to rush home dive upstairs and pay the first game i could as i wanted to switch off. Now i wait talk to the wife and decide what level and how long i am going to play for. i also think about what situations i will lay down a hand in.
I alos never ever start a game just to try and get a quick one in...you think badly and make wrong decisions when you are worried about how long you have left to go for dinner, pub, visitng etc
Feeling relaxed is the key and i cannot play poker when stressed or have pent up rage from the days work
it works for me and i make better calls as i am in control of my enviroment..no coin tosses or what the hell type calls...well not many
