I fell off of the blogging bandwagon but I am continuing to play each day. Saturday's session had a nice bounceback and Sunday's session was solid. It would have been even better except that I made a bet sizing error on a turn bet and got out drawn when my opponents AQ hit a straight.
The two things that I am trying to focus on are 1. consistently following the strategy that has won for me in the past. In other words play really tight up front and be super aggressive in the cutoff and on the button. Nothing original here but it works. Also, I am trying to value bet more effectively.
The second point of focus is to not be results orientated. For instance, my Friday session, upon review, was not bad in terms of play but it was a disaster in terms of results. However, this was largely due to loosing two coolers. This is a part of poker and nothing I can do will eliminate variance. I have to focus on the quality of my decisions, not whether or not I am winning flips.
I am trying to ignore my cashier. At the start of a session its almost impossible not to see it but I want to avoid looking at it immediately after play. Immediate results provide false feed back and tilt my emotions.
Barring some sort of bankroll endangering crash and burn I am going to do my best to ignore my day to day swings until the end of the 30 day challenge.
