Thank Vi-Zero. I played some tilted Tourneys today, let off some steam and then got back to the grind. I think a mistake i'm making is sometimes talking to people on Skype/MSN or even having people rail. It's funny, I'm not the type of person that will go crazy tilty by myself, but when I'm with others I use them as a crutch to whine and constantly feel sorry for myself even in mid-session. The fact that I'm often typing to them the ridiculous beat I just took instead of putting that energy towards slowing my breathing down, keeping my head clear and focusing is a huge leak. Tonight I played another 2k hands 8 tabling and while variance and EV continue to rape me constantly, I don't think I made one tilty play throughout it and was really a couple hands away from making a great comeback (AK into KK at 2/4 and blanking a few big draws).

Time to try to catch a few hours sleep, I have to get up tmr and get to the gym before 5 PM (that sounds easy but it's 7AM right now and haven't slept in a long time) and get back on the four hour diet. Today was my cheat day, but I didn't do anything crazy either than dip into some wine and cheese, have some melba toast...though I did have come chocolate dipped in peanut butter. Sooooo good I will miss that this week.

Past 24 hours (also dropped 400$ on Stars tourneys):
