Feeling way better about poker in general (although, of course, the guy from my last post wound up finishing fourth obv.) I even put in a Sunday where I built up some pretty big stacks [and then blew them off, one in spectacular fashion that will get my replacement CR vid tomorrow laughed at :p. I blame leftover tilt and/or the one big mistake of the month I'm allowing myself to make.]

Regardless, after a mandatory couple of days off to recover, I'll be back playing a big MTT schedule and probably mixing it in with some MSNL 6 max after New Year's. I need to get myself in a frame of mind to finally get over cash variance and just grind out some hands, because regardless of how good I am getting at MTT's and how much I'm going deep in big events, I can only get as aggressive as I need to get by learning to crush midstakes. I've always crushed every cash game I played in regularly except maybe high stakes razz, but most of that has been full ring and I've just never taught myself to play deep shorthanded poker without TAGging it up. That beats 6 max anyway, but I'd like to develop my LAG gear a bit more.

Up next, I've got an 'emergency replacement' CR vid tomorrow (already done), a couple of videos for a European mag of some kind in the next week or two, and the Borgata WPT event in January in between Sundays and whatever other tourneys I wind up playing. There should also be some stuff relating to tworags that a lot of people will like.

Happy holidays :)
