Light at the End of the Tunnel

    I haven't talked about it too much in the blog but the truth is I went through a nasty downswing in December to the tune of nearly 20 buy ins.  There is no doubt I was running bad but it is also clear that during that time period I had fallen into some bad habits which had developed as a result of frustration and lack of proper review.

    A lot of these habits cost me an extra street of betting in pots I lost and often robbed me of value in pots in which I held big hands.  I have plugged most of these leaks, thanks in no small part to my coach, but have also been doing more self-review.  Once I had begun to beat 50 pretty badly in the early stages of re-learning cash, I stopped reviewing my own play and it's pretty amazing how quickly my game regressed.

    I know I said I was going to post a graph but I want the sample size to be a little bigger. Hopefully results will continue in an upward fashion and I will be able to post one later this week. I don't simply want to post a graph every time I go on a mini-heater.

    On another note, it looks like I'll be heading out to Vegas sometime around mid-February.  I have some loose ends I want to tie up in Dallas before then but it's unclear if I'll get to do that in person.  Alright, back to the grind. Glgl.
