After the cooler I wrote about in my last blog, I decided to take some time away from poker to clean my head. I ended up heading back to the same charity game last night and ended up ~$300 in just under 3 hours of nl200, which isn't bad imo. It feels good to profit from a game I know I can crush when I'm playing well. As for online, I'm up ~110 since Tuesday at NL10 in what I'd guess to be about 2500-3000 hands (it's hard to guess because PTR is so bad at tracking profit/hands and I don't currently run a HUD). Maybe it's a mild heater but I feel like I'm playing a lot better after taking some time off...making a lot of calls that I wouldn't normally make and profiting pretty well from them. I feel that playing live has helped my game a lot in the sense that when I'm online I think I'm playing like I have something to prove, whereas live I'm genuinely concerned about the amount of money I have on the table and force myself to play much better. This has really opened my eyes to how I am playing and I am playing far more profitably than ever before. I also attribute some of this success to the application of some ideas from various CardRunners videos as well as Aaron Davis and Tri Nguyen's "The Poker Blueprint."

A few weeks ago I wrote that I'd be reviewing "The Poker Blueprint." I have just finished the book and am cleaning up my notes before writing my review. I hope to cover a lot of the subjects of the book that I felt were very helpful as well as some that were a little bit confusing. With that in mind, I really enjoyed the book and feel like I have gotten more from Aaron and Tri's book than most, if not all, other books that I have read. I hope to have my review posted sometime within the next few days.

Thanks for reading and GL at the tables LP!
