Traction

To make a profit playing poker, you need to gain traction. In order to gain traction you need to have patience. The vast majority of the time, you're going to start out a session by losing money. You'll feel like you're spinning your wheels. You have to wait until they start gripping the road; if and when they do, that's when you need to put your foot down on the accelerator. Don't let up until your wheels start slipping again! Or better yet, quit the session before that happens. It's never a bad move to quit when you've made a profit equal to about half the size of your starting stack. That's what I did last night.
