Warming up

Lately, I've been playing chess each night before playing poker. I play on lichess.org, a wonderful chess site. I used to write a chess blog, but abandoned it when I realized I wasn't going to improve the way I wanted. I've noticed similarities between poker and chess before, and just realized another one - it takes me a while to warm up when playing either game. It would be great if the software just let you play in a warm up mode until you felt you were ready to play for real. I'm sure my chess rating and my overall poker balance would be higher it that mode existed :-)
