Those comments are really helpful from all of you thanks, a500 thanks for reinforcing the futitlity of my bluffing! I just need to cut even those last 1 or 2 hands out of the sessions now as they can really impact my bottom line, I'm going to do that, thankyou. Swig sad bad Vs comedy bad - progress of sorts, thanks for taking the time to read I appreciate it. Nibbles it's great to know your rooting for me thank you =)

Chris once again thanks for the time you've spent going over my hands - I can't thank you enough, I've re-read your reply a couple of times and am now going through adding notes to my A4 sheet that I play with to remind me of the key points for my next session.

Lessons learnt from your comments.

1. Don't go in with implied odds type hands against a pot which is already being 3bet if you're out of position, I'm going to be facing more betting on the flop.

2. If I flop a monster bet half pot, don't slowplay it.

3. Watch out for check or minraises, read it as a sign of strength not weakness.

4. Don't chase ever.. I know this but it's still creeping into my game. Don't chase.

5. Tighten up late limping range.

It's great to know I'm improving from you guys comments so that more than makes up for the negative buy in session. I'm looking forward to starting the next session now which is something I wasn't before I had your replies!

Two more sessions left today, i'll continue the focus on not bluffing - and also remove c-bets completey, unless holding TPTK+

thanks again
