I've used this title before, and I'm using it again because it's apt. What do I mean by the third floor? I'll get there in a minute :-) When you're playing poker properly, the bar chart of your stack size over the course of the session tends to subdivide neatly into sections. Each section starts with a string of small losses, and ends with a big upward leap. The leap takes your stack to a point considerably higher than where it was at the start of the section; I liken that to going up one floor in a building. Generally, as soon as you've gone up a floor, you start slowly sliding back again. You can't avoid the sliding back, but if you're patient enough, another leap will be coming. After much experience, I can highly recommend calling it quits after your third leap. The place where you've ended up can be called the third floor, if you use the European convention of counting floors :-) Last night, I got off at the third floor.
