    Default Today I plugged a Leak

    About 10 minutes ago I sat down to play some hands and catch the drunk fishies as they come home from a night out.

    Folded some hands. 9 Hands in I raise 44 UTG+1 and proceed to double barrel an unknown half stack on a 77KA board, despite the knowledge that unknown half stacks rarely fold anything to anyone.

    2 hands later I call an UTG+1 raise from another full stacked total unknown with 56s in the small blind.

    So far Ive only been in two very small pots, but I decide im obviously tired and not playing my game and leave.

    I just felt like sharing this, since Id usually try to press on for a little while and invariably wait until I call off a stack with TP when im obviously behind before I quit. Go me!
    gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

    Quitting when you're obviously not right is...well if not underrated, at least under-acknowledged.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    i've refused to play the last week because I've been sick as a dog, and filled to the gills with cough meds.
    The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes

    Tables are definitly tighter in the mornings for me than they are around 5-8 ish. And they can get pretty ridiculous at night. Bankholidays are also pretty crazy.
