Nice post. Definitely an area I need to improve on. A lot of times I take plenty of time ot make a decision, but get caught up thinking about the wrong things...

FT's think tank is just too short for me... Maybe my braincells are too slow?

Pokey, I find it frustratingly difficult to use my image when I play. When I've been playing really maniacal at a table, I'd expect to get some action when I flop a hand, but it doesn't appear to be happening as frequently as you think it would. I don't think I've been able to convince tags to call PSBx3 with stuff like middle pair yet... I don't know, it's a pain trying to put a lot of effort into manipulating your image and using it at the table, only to have people ignore it or adjust in a manner that you weren't expecting.
