Operation: 'A' game

I'm jumping on Hoopy and Rav's bandwagon of not checking results.

I tested it out preliminarily today, by using only the "overall" tab in the 'reports' section, and turning off winnings. At least that way I can check/review my hands but not see my winnings/losses.

The only obstacle is that I keep pretty diligent track of my end of day balance every day I grind. Been doing this since I started playing. Trying to think I can still keep track of this without really focusing on how much I'm up/down.

I might try blacking out my spreadsheet cells so I can input the number but can't see it the following days. My memory is bad enough that I'll lose track so I might try that.

Operation: no looking at the 'sessions' tab until next Wednesday April 6th.

So i thought my downswing might have been over after that little upburst of $3.7k, but the last couple sessions have been a fun return to EV and variance death.

Results Oriented - The operation of not looking at my results till wed was a mega fail, but where I am succeeding is still not looking at my results DURING a session (something which I was compulsively doing before hand).

My initial worry of not looking at results was being worried about the inability to really have an accurate stop loss and potentially losing too much. I've been surprised (small sample) that after not looking, I'm actually over-estimating how bad things are going and actually stopping SOONER than I would have, rather than later. Though its not ideal for volume, its good for quitting when not playing solid or when things are going bad. I think this is because when you lose two quick buyins, and you don't know if you were already down 2-3 buyins that you just hit the eject button and quit.

Gunnars - My eyes definitely don't feel as strained anymore. It's hard to tell what specific variable caused this, since I also implemented that software program that wingster had suggested. Either way, the combination of the two things has been helping.

Calling 3bets - I rarely call them, yet when I do, I always lose/stack off. Not sure how this is possible when I conceivably have such a strong range? All I can think of is that alarms go off to people when I call a 3bet, so I'm only ever getting barreled with legit hands?

The month - Down a solid $13.7k on the month right now. I'd be hapy if I could escape the month down $10k and EV at about down $1k. That would be a solid win for me now, so we'll see.
