Not played a whole lot of tournies this month but instead have been working on improving my 6 max cash game. To aid me i have been using a trial version of poker tracker 3 but have recently purchased holdem manager which apparently is in some way better, i'm not sure how, truth be told i'm such a retard that even installing it is proving to be a little difficult at the moment. Anyway so far i've had mixed success, I'm up $3.7K since i started playing toward the end of October and $1.4K of that is this month. I was up a shitload more than that but had two disaster days where i lost $3K and most of that money was my fault. I ran pretty bad but instead of just stopping i started tilting and jerking off buy-ins all over the place, that was a good couple of days, lol.
Overall i would say that i'm happy with how things are going, i started off running really well and most of my decision making has been quite sound. The main thing to work on is defiantly finding a way to avoid tilting because even if your running badly the players at 0.5/1 and 1/2 are so bad that you can still find ways to win even when the cards aren't negotiating. The main thing that has improved my game has been watching some videos on leggopoker.com, not so much copying what these guys are doing but just seeing what there thinking about during hands and being able to logically justify your actions. I know i'm playing crap when i'll make a bad call or a shit bluff without thinking about it, i'll then go through the hand and just be like, why the fuck did i do that?; thankfully these hands are becoming a lot less frequent. I'm still making a load of mistakes but at least now i'm recognising them and this is the first step to stopping them altogether.
Saved a few hands that i thought were cool/interesting:

That was a nice turn card and always nice to 3 bet the 75 soooooooooted!!

This hand is a classic example of people playing like total retards, his line in the hand is simply awful. Ship his 120 x.

Sick beat on this one and nothing i can do obviously this worst thing is even if the river blanks you know he'll just call all three barrels with top pair 3 kicker.

Another mong donk! when he bet the river i was just confused as hell because it makes no sense at all, the stacks were so deep pre which made it fun.

Finally i nice call by me.
So i'm planning on playing another 10K hands or so this month and obviously a few more tournies but nothing to excessive. In life away from poker 6 of us are heading back to Kent this weekend for a game of golf and a piss up in maidstone. We're also doing a combined 'sports' event on the following; golf, pool, pingpong, bowling, darts and tiger woods 09. I'm not sure how i'll get on but am quietly confident as i'm one of the best at bowling and ping pong and am the man to beat on tiger woods, should be a fucking good laugh! Think i'll play a heavy schedule on sunday but i might be a bit hungover so have to wait and see.
