On another note relating to getting better, one thing that really changed my game around was having someone/something who I can talk to to hold me accountable for my stupidity/losing. I lost track sometimes even with poker tracker of my losses in sngs. I was doing alright in the $25 nl cash tables and making a little playing the sun million satellites, but my sng game was just lost. Then one day a fella at a table started cracking on me because of my SNG stats on Sharkscope. I looked my name up there and wanted to puke. I was down $150 in profit and at one point I was down to almost -$250. I realize that i could have seen this in PT, but I play at work and at home so my stats get mixed up. From there on I talked to my brother who plays poker everyday about hands/situations and focus'd hard on my play. I also used the free searches on sharkscope to keep track of my stats/profit/etc (I will be using PT when i get my new job in a couple of weeks to keep track instead of SS). That was at the beginning of this month.
I am not posting this to brag about my game (I suck) or to promote a website. I am posting this because when i see how im doing its motivation to improve and do my %110 best to do better the next game. This might not work for you, but its working for me. I started my operation at the beginning of this month with -$150, playing no cash games, just a few Sun Million satellites, and all the sngs i could muster.
