My confidence plummeted recently and some poor play too, so decided to start a thread to motivate myself and maybe get to know fellow regs.


So basically I felt I was crushing nl50 recently and started taking shots at 100NL that wen't okayish (managed to b/e). I'll go down to NL50 for a few k hands to regain my killer instinct. Then I'm going to focus hard on plugging my leaks and crushing 100NL.

Good luck and cu at the tables!

    I've always played in the evenings until late night. However, my energy levels have been quite low too, so I decided to try some new schedules. This week I'm getting up at 4. Still wasting way too much time in the morning, everything should take me like 1h and it takes even 2! Today I'm going to work on my BTN play, so 2tabling NL100 and getting down to NL50 if I feel that it doesn't go well.

      Why would this reg shove the turn? Doesn't make sense at all to me.

        Ok, that's it for the day. I'm not satisfied with my volume, however very much satisfied with the quality of my game. I've also worked on my BTN play, tomorrow will do the same.
