Been too long since I've posted, need to get more consistent with that.

Anyways, I got involved in a staking site, and got staked to play micro SnG's. Playing around the 6 dollar level with decent success right now. I basically play 6 dollar 90 mans and 5 dollar 45's and splash 3's for volume/variance control. The 3's are insane soft.

I've also messed around with the 4 dollar rush on demands, but I'm not a big fan. Everyone nits around and I feel like I have to cooler everyone to get anywhere in them.

As far as life goes, pretty meh. Enjoying the house and finally getting caught up on bills. Also, playing random 1/2 live with AWFUL drunk people is fun, just saying. I also just got a new puppy, which is awesome. Brindle great dane/boxer mix if you are curious.

Hmmm... Have been working out a bit and watching the diet a little. Trying to lose some weight since my job is sitting around answering phone calls (when i work which is rare).

Need to find something else to supplement the wifes income, hopefully I can keep running OK on poker and grind out more than a part time job (which I feel shouldn't be hard).

Things I've been doing in poker:
-working on multi-tabling: I feel MUCH more comfortable with 8ish tables than I did before.

-Getting more volume: this comes with the first thing, but also i've just been putting in more time...less CoD more making money

-Doing Hand Histories: I have some very close friends who are really good players at the higher levels (109's and such) and they are some of the backers for my SnG action. One has been doing some HH's with me and it's really helped find some leaks in my game. It is definitely helping me with pot control, and knowing when to try to get value when to just check behind. I'm going to try to do something like this at least every other week. I may start paying him small sums to make up for it, even though we would be talking on skype anyways more often than not...

Mostly just trying to make my game more solid. I tend to spew some, and I'm really working on pot control and not getting into awkward spots. Also getting much better at shove/fold, and working on ICM. I have a grasp of it which is more than most players at my lvl, I just need to spend some more time in the math of things.

overall I feel like my poker game is greatly improving, and it feels good to be getting better at something. The plan is to keep plugging away, keep getting better, and hopefully make some money outta this deal.

I believe thats about it for now... I might try to do like...weekly updates, maybe some charts from HEM or something....who knows...

The only hands a nit balances in his range are the nuts, the second nuts, and the third nuts.Last edit: 07/01/2011 10:52
