So I have managed to play rather consistently for about a week and half or so. I have played 6 sessions in the 10 day span each for at least an hr. and no more than about 2hrs. (I just start to loose focus after 2 hrs. or so, something I probably need to work on) I have been very encouraged by the results. First that I am enjoying it and finding it very easy to fit poker in my busy schedule (taking 26 credit hrs. this semester...) Second that I am really following my game plan of playing smart, focusing on position, and making solid decisions. I have especially been focusing on position and using initiative to my advantage. One thing I have also been doing is not getting paranoid and constantly thinking that people are making great plays back at me when I am betting in position or trying to steal. I have basically resigned myself to the fact that people at this level are playing their cards, and are basically never bluffing. So I have really cut down on making stupid calls thinking people are trying to outplay me. This is probably the single biggest improvement in my game, I would do this way to much in the past and get burned. Other than that I am not doing anything special, just playing my good hands fast, not getting fancy and really focusing on the fundamentals. So far so good and I have added about 20% to my BR, I am not sure if this is good or not as I have no concept of BR or what a good winning rate is but I am not really concentrating on that at the moment, it is just nice to see all green on the poker tracker stats lol.
