Every once in a while, check through your stack to make sure everything's okay. Using the tabs in you taskbar, work right to left or left to right through all your tables.

I keep a pen handy and just write down the table names or the first 5 letters of a table name as I have action on the table if I think I might be sitting out or sitting alone. If I write down 12 different tables over a 2 minute span, then I know I am in all my games, and it makes it easy to find the table I am sitting out at.

Also, when a table gets down to 4 handed, I like to pull it to an open area on my screen by itself. I don't mind playing short handed on FR tables, but I need to pay a bit more attention to the game and leave if the other players are just regs. Sometimes I uncheck the autopost blinds on the short table to the side so that I am manually posting blinds till I am sure the game will be good.

Uh, gotta ask...why did you call the river? A min-3bet PF and a triple barrel sure doesn't look like AK.

thin check-calldowns at full ring are for limp-call donkeys that i never make a hand against. i'm pretty sure the worse you play preflop is inversely correlated to how often you flop pairs. limp K9s utg and call a raise from someone with JJ? well, here's a K87 flop for you to check-call all the way down. yeah, i hate poker at the moment.

I'm taking a break from fullring, this month a good session has been W$SD of 43

right now Im not sure what is broke, if its simply variance, if the looser style has some big leak that Im not seeing, for the most part Im happy with the way Ive played hands

so off to fulltilt for HU games, maybe some 6max again
