Aye, now you’ve got it! I’ve been working on improving my game a lot as well. One of the things that strikes me from watching CR vids is how few of the pros even use a HUD, lol. Hopefully we’ll keep improving and be up there in no time

Nice going man! Sometimes even if you don’t reach the goal you set for, you have to remember that setting goals will put you a step above 99% of all other people in the world..

Keep it up man!

Meh, I don’t even necessarily want to see hand histories so much as get a look at your PT stats, stats by position, and a PokerEV graph. If yours look anything like mine did when I was more or less breaking even in the long run, I think I could have a lot of helpful advice for you. I know that by now you have a good handle on how to play made hands postflop, I’m talking more about the little things that, while they may not seemingly affect the outcome of a particular session, have a large influence on your longterm winrate. Also, I have some advice regarding tilt avoidance; I used to tilt like crazy myself. Anyway, I’ll leave you alone, but if you do decide to get a third party’s objective advice… I’m here for ya!

So true, if they had pressured them the way SD did we might have had a good shot. I think they held on to that bend don’t break plan for toooo long.

Yep, subtract out all these stupid obvious -EV spots and the winrate really starts to look good…

I’ve been trying to get used to 10 tabling.

Timed out once each with QQ, AA, and AK. DOH! 8 tables is pretty easy at the moment, 10 is getting there.

I was really pullin for the Jags to beat the Pats, and I think they could have if they would have like, ya know, DONE A GOD DAMN THING ON DEFENSE INSTEAD OF SITTING BACK AND LETTING THE PATS DO WHATEVER THE F THEY WANTED.

Comment on My demons come back to haunt me by Mirage

I completely sympathize, sounds like me from early ‘07. If you like, I can have a look at your stats and such and try to give you an objective opinion on some things you can work on. It took me a while to stop breaking even and finally crack into 100NL for good, but since then I’ve got almost 150k hands at 5+ ptbb/100, and I really feel like I’m reading something from me 9 months ago. No amount of tweaking will overcome tilt though, and that was the first thing I had to deal with before having any real measure of success.
