@my valued 2p2ers - thanks for the support - played a lot of poker in the past 2 weeks, its really drained a lot out of me and I don't think I am playing 100%. Going to take a weeks break - read poker articles, scan 2p2, maybe read a book or 2 (poker and non poker). Basically clear my head a bit before I get back to the grind.

gl man. As 10 (or in your case 20) NL'ers I think we sometimes have a tendency to try and cram in too much play. This leads to extended hours at our computer screen, lack of sleep, burnout, etc.. Taking a break is definitely a necessity from time to time.

On a somewhat related note, I once read somewhere that as an aspiring poker player we should read/learn twice as much as we play. Unfortunately with busy schedules it sometimes becomes difficult/unrealistic to make this happen. I know for a fact that on those nights that we only have an hour to play spending 40 minutes of it reading, posting, analyzing isn't going to happen. I think that if we could somehow subscribe to this rule of thumb it might be able to help us out with burnout.

@mookboi - can you get CR for just 1 month - i.e. pay 25$ - cram as many vids as possible, and then decide after a month if you want to keep it - or is it a yearly subscription... - Also are there vids for 10NL/25NL?

i know you didnt know, but if you know youre against that type of opponent, is it more +EV to just open shove the river with big hands, no matter the pot size?
