Good post. You are correct, Sir. You need to stay focused. If you get a chance and have the desire, it would be great if you can share some of your stats with us. Do you use PT? This is the first post of yours that I read, so if you have already answered some of these question, sorry to be repetitive. I'll read other posts now.

Yes I do use PT...as of my last 15,000 hands of NL10 I am about a 5 PTBB/100 winner, not great but decent I would say....

Played So Bad But Learned A Lesson

AHMWM I arrived at home just after midnight again and decided to multi-table NL10. I hit a few big hands which won me a decent amount but I couldn't stop spewing chips left and right. I wasn't paying attention and making terrible plays all the time. Recently I have learn a vast amount of knowledge of how to use positional aggression at 6-max ring games. My play has been fairly swingy since I have change my style for fairly weak-tight to a much more tight-aggressive style of play. I have now learned a new lesson.

Weak-tight play can earn you a positive win-rate at low levels. Truly tight-aggressive play will earn you much better win rates if played correctly. But to play the tight-aggressive style you must have a focus level much more intense vs. playing weak-tight. When other things are on your mind or when you aren't motivated to play your best poker........DON'T PLAY. I have to remember this from now on. By playing without my FULL focus I am asking myself to blow my bankroll. I am determined to move up through the levels of NLHE and I must keep full focus at the tables at all times. Although I may have lost a buy-in tonight I feel like I learned a lesson far more valuable. Focus=Better Play.....period

With that out of the way, I have no morning classes tomorrow and no work. I do have night class but hopefully I can get some hands in during the day if my mind is in the right place. This isn't how I wanted to start the first week of my blog, but if I keep my head up and turn my A game back on I know I will be heading back in the right direction again soon.....
