So heres what I got...
This is my overall USD winnings graph from stakes ranging from 5NL - 25NL. I've been playing a little of everything mostly trying to game select and look for fishier opponents. Here is the thing though, I think I'm the fish!
I have a major issue calling down lightly. I know it is an issue and I need help trying to fix it. I've gone so far as to make an index card an tape it to my monitor that just says 'FOLD - Stop Calling 'Bluffs''. This is creating a major profit loss for my learning of poker. Because of this I have made the decision to only 2 table from now on until I am back in the profit again.
On the positive side I finished a live session of 1/2NL last night and finished +$260. My path to beat the micros has definitely increased my skill in the live games, specifically my ability to hand read and use range analysis.
Here are some videos that I've watched recently:
[x]Hand Reading: A Lost Art Introduction
[x]Hand Reading: A Lost Art Part One
[x]Hand Reading: A Lost Art Part Two
[x]Mathematics of NLHE: Season Premiere
These videos have all been very helpful. I stopped watching the hand reading videos because I felt like it was making me focus too much on things that weren't as important in the micros. This, I believe, was part of the reason that I had been calling down lightly. I'm temporarily off of that series and onto the Mathematics of NLHE. A lot of the concepts are already familiar with me but I am going to watch the whole series and take notes and really try to learn the concepts so I can apply them at the table.
Amazingly, using some random USD I had deposited on Bovada months ago, I entered into a $20 Super Turbo SS $1000 Guaranteed and came in second place and cashed for $260 profit. I'm going to use this new bankroll on Bovada to give me a better advantage when I am trying to table select. I have Holdem Indicator so I will be able to use a HUD. I need to buy the Hand Converter though so that I can track my hands using PT4.
I'm off to take a break from the online scene and play a 3 hour live session!
