Hello...... I was in Vegas for 3 weeks, but had I blinked I would've missed it; it was all a complete blur and I'm only now feeling fully recovered in terms of eating/ sleep cycle etc.

The trip didn't end up being very poker-centric at all, I played a $1500nl and the knot of despair in my stomach at being so bored after 5 hours led to me making a sick hero call with Q5 over 3 streets on AQ8 2 9 he had JT oh well great where's my drink coming from..... I plan to play some more live tournys in the future, GUKPTs etc (hello salfi, franky, etc), but if I do I have to start applying the rigorous standards I do to online cash games, and start seeing the patience/ handling the boredom side of it as a skill in itself rather than an excuse to bust out and go have another beer.

Live cash games didn't go well either, and I basically wasn't good enough again. Passive old guy raises me all in deep on Q42 Q K and I hold 22 and can't fold, etc. No excuses, just not good enough and I've definitely been guilty of being one of those online dicks who think I'm entited to an edge just because they're all so fundamentally bad. There's adjustments to be made that I didn't make and it's all my fault.

Anyway, I met loads of decent Leggo members while I was there so hello to you all (MattUK, Papgiorgio, etc).

I did spend an enourmous amount of money though, and it's become an unwanted tradition that I basically take my net worth to Vegas each year and come back almost penniless.

Soooo, I came home and started to remember how to win online at 200nl and 400nl (I have do this whenever I don't play for say, a week, and while I am re-learning I tend to lose at a rate close to $2 a hand at 400nl). Since then though, consistency kicked in, and at one point I went 18 consecutive winning sessions, a stat which now reads as one losing session in 25........



I'm just uploading a video, which is a HH review video of hands sent to me by Leggo members, I talk about a ton of concepts within that video so worth a watch IMO (it's aimed at 200nl and below probably).

Is all, Dan
