Operation: 'A' game

Welcome back!

Betfair moved the HH folder to C:\Users\(your user name)\P5JavaClientSettings if you are using Windows 7....
And using the mouse scroll for bet sizing does still work but your mouse has to be hovering over the betting area if that makes sense. It's annoying but you adjust to it quickly.

Thanks man, yah I noticed this bet sizing thing after my session, that it only works over the betting area. That's kind of lame, but I guess I'll get used to it pretty quick!

and yah +2 to puke haha

but whats the leakkk? my blinds winrate is waaay too low.. but not sure if this is mega runbad or what.

In other news, the Mental Game of Poker by Jared Tendler finally arrived. Well it arrived a bit late, but I was also away for two weeks.

I started it very briefly last night and will try to read more tonight. It seems good so far in the bit I've read.

The Inchworm

So far I'm reading a section called the 'inchworm'. It essentially talks about how incremental progress can be viewed similar to how an inchworm walks. It has a curved body where the back of its body is on the ground (is your C game), the curved part in the middle is your 'B' game and the front part of its body on the ground is your A game.


C __||__ A

When it walks, it lifts up and stretches the front part of its body forward. Then the back part of its body lifts up and follows behind compressing the curved part of the body. (no idea if this is possible to visualize).


When you improve your A game, you're taking a step forward, but your C game stays in the same spot. If you keep working on your A game, but not your C game, then the only thing you are doing is widening the gap between your C game and A game (ie: the width of your B game, or amount of time you play your B game), but you're not actually progressing anywhere. The only way to progress forward is to alternate working on your A game, and then your C game. Your overall game will keep progressing forward that way.

I 25% feel like that explanation made no sense to the majority of ppl.
