Took a day off yesterday again. Decided I was going to beat this shit and realised that I had been playing terribly lately. And it's because of FTR.
Since I started playing poker I have always browsed the net while playing (usually FTR). I realised yesterday that I'm loosing huge chunks of chance because I wasn't paying attention to the tables. I would literally be playing 7 tables and time out because of reading a thread at the same time.
Well today I decided that would stop. And it seems to help alot. I played (roughly) 4k hands today at 100NL and made nearly 12 buyins. Hopefully this isn't just variance teasing me and I really have turned things around.
Hopefully. |

my little brother worked 50hrs/week this summer and made only 1.6k! i told him id teach him poker, but the 'rents freaked out. |

Agreed. I show my wife pokergraph for the day, and point out "this is where the dog was barking at me for attention (downswing).. this is when you came home from work (steady drop), this is when you started nagging me about the dishes (lose buyin).. this is when you went to bed (back to even +1 buyin).
Paying attention is huge. Being able to see all screens at once. Turn off the tv, close ftr. I like to post ftr after my session to recap the night. Its a good way to evaluate your play. |

Made another $1200 at 100NL today. It's so easy it really is. I think if I had just played 100NL all summer I would have made way more then I did at 200 and 400NL. I've played 28k 100NL hands now and I'm running at 4.5ptBB/100 and I know I can do better then that.
I think the plan now is to get back to 200NL asap (like 6000 hands a day asap) and then make sure I have a really solid game together before I try 400NL again.
br IS $4900 |
