Session 8

I was $1600 down at one point, came back to finish $200 in the green. At the lowest point, I'd been concentrating really hard, wasn't spewing, playing a nice ABC game waiting for cards to fall playing something like 22/18........ then it was like I suddenly remembered that we don't need cards so long as we do enough betting, so I suddenly switched gears and played like a pyscho.

It didn't all work out:

But on the whole I won a ton more, and I'm far better playing this style than any other, SO LONG as I'm on my A game. It takes a bit of discipline to realise the times that I'm on my B game, and these are the times I need to consciously nit it up a little....... at least preflop.
