After 3 horrendous months, the end of September was a rebirth. I realized that I'm not reading ranges at all accurately - I'm worse than most 10nl droolers right now.
I am practicing range reading. First session, 8 hands, grade is C. But my best play at the tables followed intensive practicing with range reading early this year. So I'm not posting any poker results here for the next little bit. Just number of hands where I did ALL the work. Start with an explicit range preflop and narrow on each street. Decide on a specific number of combos before I look at showdown (using hands I wasn't involved in so there's little chance of me remembering it).
A - 3 combos or less
B+ - 5 combos or less
B - 8 combos or less
C - 10 to 15 combos
D/F - narrowing too much or missing something - showdown hand is out of consideration - worse than 15 combos
I sort of average the grades. I got an A, B+, B and rest C or worse.
But I got an A+ 'cuz I'm practicing ranges again. Trying for 30 - 35 hands worth of practice each week for the next month or so.
