If you seriously play as if a 2+2 alpha male is going to analyze each of your choices you will totally improve. It's true.

Proof: I challenge anyone to find a single hand I played tonight where I made a mistake.

That AKo hand where you 3-bet, and then called the preflop raiser after he donked into you on the flop. You then called again on the turn even though he was tight passive and not bluffing. You should have folded there and not waited until the river.

Are you sure? I can't find that hand in PT.

I think the worst mistake I made tonight was defending my big blind with A9 against a 2+2 pfr, calling down on an A-high board, and then typing "wa/wb" into the chatbox while donking the river. Luckily he had A4 so he had to pay me off anyway.

Sadly, I believe that's probably accurate.

My imaginary coach is angry at me because I keep checking this thread while I have tables open. He's kind of a nazi, actually.

If your not going to take his advice, what are you not paying him for?

This is actually not a bad idea. However, my imagination does not stretch this far.
