GL!
Yeah it's getting better though. I think my main problems are hate-losing tilt and mistake tilt, which I've started to deal with. Read the chapter on hate-losing tilt twice and will work on it tomorrow. Pretty interesting stuff.
Haven't done a post session analysis in a while, so it's about time. Playing without a hud atm on my main site so there won't be any hands; hopefully they'll get the converter thingy working soon, but it's a nice experience anyway I think it's forcing me to focus better/aquire reads.
First I'll just say that I'm feeling more hopeful than I've been in the last dunno how many months because this last session I was playing HU, messed up a couple of pots to double up this aggro guy (like they all are on this site), got QQ called his 3bet and was planning to call 3 barrels when I timed out on the turn. Timing out is what I've done a TON in the recent past but it's getting better now since I cut tables, however it still happens.
But for the first time ever I didn't even care that I timed out a great hand which was a very promising moneymaker, I actually started laughing! Never would have happened before, feeling quite proud of that.
I think the main reasons are the hate-losing chapter I've read today and the good meditation I've done just prior to playing. Haven't mentioned this I think but I'm meditating twice daily, 1 hour each and it's starting to really affect me in a positive way.
Therefor a realization loomed: good mood is the nuts! I will include it in my session warm-up, if I'm not in a good mood before sitting down to play I'll maybe just meditate for 10 minutes or do something to lighten it up.
Wow, this post is getting long, let's get to our
goal analysis:
1) This was a brilliant idea, used it a lot and gained some really valuable insights - i.e.
!!!In general, many blf with no eq
ppl blf overpot [F] a lot, sometimes continue 1/2 [R]
POT size bluffs are common, like bop [R] even on dry-ish K52xK
BUT lots still vbet with pot!
Etc. etc. - I need to keep refining this and read it before every session
2) This went good too, I think I manage to use it in a couple of hands as well.
Finally going to sleep feeling optimistic about the game. See you tomorrow poker
