Casino Play Better, Home Game Worse...

Now, this is a switch.

For as long I've been playing poker, I've held my own at the home games, but been very inconsistent at the casinos.  Part of the reason is that I've played most of my casino play in Minnesota, where the cash games are limit poker only.  That's the only time I ever play limit poker, and I've never been a winning player in that game.

Lately my issue has been losing in home games.  I'm afraid my play has become too predictable.  Am I running bad?  Playing too many hands?  I've focused on not playing out of position.  I'm really confused about why my results have changed over the past several months.  I think the remedy is some time off.

Maybe I'll hone my skills online at low stakes for a while, and go back to the live game refreshed and less confused.

It's not good to play poker confused.
