I get the whole 19 hand's and the theory's, my problem was definitly getting bored and thinking it's only 2 cents, not that its bet's or chips. I new this was making me see way too many hands and I guess the problem is patience. What i did was get into micro tourney's and S&G's and found the patience was easier. I did find playing 3 tables better too like shaun say's, because it keeps me playing more hands and you don't really need the reads at that level, just good strategy I figure. I won my first S&G i entered for real cash (only a $1+.10 cent) but $14.00 is nothing to sneeze at. I did get lucky on one hand early to set me up. Villian had KK LP, I went all in QQ UTG and hit a queen on the turn but that happens both ways, right. Anyway, started at $50, boredom got me to $25, but i'm back up to $45 and thats after finishing in the money on a ten dollar MTT. Out of 1480 players I was 227th, an ok start. I think I'll re-read SSH and have at'er some more. Thanks guys.
