I dunno GM, if you are winning this much I may just take over your game type. :P I can adapt well.

Regardless I am playing bad and the results are showing. I am going through some changes to the game and putting it in practice, but bleh I just hate going through this [censored].

P.S. I am pissed that I'm breaking even and I just checked and I'm +2k in the last week still lol. Regardless I am only +800 for 2/4 overall, but I also started 2/4 by dropping a cpl buyins because of getting acclimated to the level.

I am hoping November, December, and etc. will be my turn around where I really start hauling assssssss

I think I am just a breakeven player. Every time I put in a 2k+ day, the next day is within 400 of the negative end. I can't put together consecutive good days. I just feel like crap about my game and keep changing things but I'm missing a huge leak somewhere.

I am doing a major overhaul and can't seem to get it right, but I am at least trying to change the game to be in my favor lolz.

play fewer tables
shorter sessions
spend more time reviewing them

[/ QUOTE ]

I agree with the first one, the second one isn't really necessary as I have really good focus and from any sesh I've reviewed I've never had letdowns at the end of a sesh, and the last one is unlikely as I would say I spend more time reviewing my sessions and doing more PT work than nearly anyone else. I think I need to work on my thought processes some and make some better laydowns in tough situations as well as sure up my preflop game(which is usually not a problem for anyone)

[CalledDownLight]

Seriously prodigy. Just take some time off once in a while. I don't even mean weeks. I mean like don't play for 2-3 days or only put in like 20k hands over the rest of the month. You don't need to play 5k hands a day.

[too eazy]

prod, the problem is you give your opponents too much credit for having brain cells.

you can ship me 1k for the life changing advice.

seriously, thats your biggest leak.

what would you have broken if turn and river came 33?

[TheProdigy]

I know and you told me this already. I am changing that now. I def. give them credit and think they will take certain lines when they really have no idea.


CDL; I have to play 5k/hands a day, because I just have to. I am learning from volume. It lets me catch on to patterns/etc, and it is my learning process. I feel this is a necessary way to learn. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] hahaaha

wtf at that hand
