Climbing out of DS Update
So variance decided to come back and be a nuisance in the recovery phase of my DS. All the week's progress was undone on Friday and Saturday where I struggled to post positive sessions.
Overall I think I played quite well. All the hands that were played were pretty standard spots. I have been doing quite a bit of study whilst I play and this is proving to be very beneficial. Studying in between sessions has allowed me to apply the fixes in the following session and is helping with confidence.
However my mental is starting to show cracks as my frustration and patience tolerance is slowly declining. This needs to be addressed immediately so that stacks are not punted off. At the moment the best solution is to continue putting in volume. I objectively think that my overall play has improved since last week so there is no need to take days off.
Here was my volume for week 7:
I did not play that much this week as I had quite a few business things I needed to attend to at the beginning of the week (Tuesday and Wednesday). My weekend was also busy socially as the last 2 games of the World cup took place. I now have no excuses with regards to abnormal sleep patterns or tiredness as the world cup is over.
I am also looking into a more energetic diet. I seem get really fatigued around 2pm and I am thinking it is because of my high carb/protein diet (for putting on mass at gym). If anyone has any recommendations, please let me know
About to put in my first session of the week so hopefully I can turn it around.
