Things are going well, just two short sessions so far this month (was away for the weekend) but up well over 2.5 buyins from them. Roll is sitting at 2670 and poker life is good. I'm obviously running hot (not in equity sense, but hitting hands and getting paid), but I think I'm also doing a much better job of getting value from my medium strength hands, with a minimum of spew (although tbh I've made some dubious call downs where I was probably lucky rather than good when it turns out villains were bluffing).

Anyway, been a great week or two at poker and feeling great, which kind of makes this suck. I've worked out that I really need to avoid poker for the next two weeks. The heap of work I've spoken about is building up. I havnt done enough the last week or two, and this is a pretty big deal. So much as I want to jump right on and do a session now, for the next two weeks I'm off poker. Hopefully that means avoiding FTR as well.

I've taken breaks before, but when I've been running bad which has been easier, I think taking a break when I'm running good will be tough, but its gotta be done .
