I'm continuing to see better play and thinking in your HHs. Progress in $1/$2 competency is not always readily apparent, whether in terms of results or even your own observations. Over time though, you'll gain a better sense of the flow of play and the players themselves. Plus you'll improve on sizing, which I still think is a weaker area for you.
Does your coach think it makes sense to mix and match online and live while you're actively learning? I ask since the atmospheres are very different and it might lead to some wire crossing.
Thanks, Riz! Glad the progress is noticeable. I definitely feel like I'm getting better. And you're absolutely right, bet sizing (along with a bunch of other stuff) is still a big leak that I continue to work on. Old habits die hard and what not.
My coach and I have touched on the differences between online and live and whenever I'm playing live while he's observing, we sometimes comment on how a particular line might be different in live play. Both live and online play are important to me though. With the drive to the nearest casino being so long, it would be nice to make a portion of my poker profit from online. So I'm definitely concentrating on that too.
I always have every intention of putting out vlogs more frequently and know that my subscriber rate is probably suffering greatly from the inconsistency. But like you said, life just keeps getting in the way. I'm hoping that as I get better at editing I can find ways to streamline the process and cut down on the time between episodes. But between the vlog, the website, playing poker, studying, and my day job, not to mention trying to find time to spend with my wife, it can all add up and become somewhat overwhelming. Yet it seems to get a little better every day. So there's still hope for me
Always great to hear your thoughts! Thanks so much!
