Wow, sorry for the infrequency of these posts. Life has gotten busy- midterms, extra hours at work (+ev), etc. My hours at the tables have been less than ideal. It wasn't until the past few days that I really got to put in some decent volume considering the lack of free time I've had. I had another pretty tilting session. I was on my way back from my last spill, and I decided again to shoot for some higher games. I ended up losing $277 I think in 23's and 34's. My ev had me at about -$25, so variance was somewhat on my side. Still, it was no excuse to take foolish risks while trying to rebuild.
Since that day, I've spoken to jackstack and straightened myself out a bit. I started using my HUD. I've used it before, but never really understood how to fully apply it. I still don't, but I'm learning not to let all of the data overwhelm me and take my focus off the game at hand. I've crawled back the past few days with some decent sessions only at the $11.50's. I'm still down a healthy amount, but I seem to be on the right track.
I've been trying to immerse myself in poker as much as I can. I put videos on my phone from husng.com so I can watch during breaks at work and/or just listen to the coaches while I'm driving.
I have another midterm tomorrow, a big project due in almost two weeks, and a final after that. With all this on my plate, getting some games in might be tough. If I can squeeze some games in here and there I can.
Some quick numbers before I go (from HEM):
Loss as of 11/20/2011- -$581.95
Loss as of 11/30/2011- -$406.70
It's important to note that these numbers don't include my 35% rakeback, and even more importantly, when I got my new laptop and imported all the data from my previous computer, HEM was all screwed up and had my wins/losses incorrect. I couldn't figure out how to get it to be accurate, so I just left it. On my carbon account, I'm -$315, so HEM is off by about $100.
