"Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom."

I am going to be honest in this blog, as I feel that is the only way that I am going to improve as a poker player.

I have played just over 7000 hands and I'm up about 10 buyins, but I don't think I have played well really as I have just being playing 6 tables on auto-pilot with most of my decisions been made pre-flop. I have tried to open up more in late position than I am used to, to try and take advantage of my position against my opponents, although it is a small sample of hands I am $13.73 up from the button and cutoff compared to the SB where I am $8 down so I am going to try and stop playing as many hands in that position as I have been doing.

I am going to two table maximum for the next 1000 hands and I am going to work on my pre-flop play, especially starting hands. I have been raising 4x plus x for every limper and it has been working and I am going to continue doing that.

Question though is it ever acceptable to fold KK pre-flop while playing $2NL 9Max??
