Motivation! Got a late start today but I wanted to give myself a bit of a cushion for March so put in 4.2k hands. +500 after being down 1k about 3k hands in so pretty happy. Busted the 100$ rebuy GSOP Event #2 today so that sucked since I got it in a 90% favourite on the flop. But if I cash in the next couple NL events I still have a chance for the Betfair Live Tallinn, which would be a huge blast.
I am on a super strict diet and exercise plan so I don't foresee any problems in that area. It really makes such a huge difference when you are able to see the gains you make from eating well and working out. I should have some good before/after pics to post up here soon. I want to wait a couple more weeks as I will hopefully put on a bit more muscle now that some of the fat is gone.
One poker related problem I foresee is autopiloting and generally being way too loose the longer into a session I am. I noticed myself auto-snapping reraises with KQo towards the end and auto-stacking off when I flopped a pair which is probably a bit sub-optimal even though these games are sick aggro and I feel I am owning people generally. You know it's a good sign when you hesitate before making a thin river shove only to get SNAPPED off, assume you lost, and then have the pot shipped to you. The biggest difference between 1/2 and 2/4 players is that 1/2 people just can't fkn find the fold button postflop.
Time to head to the gym and then contemplate maybe a night session. I need a headstart on the epicness that is going to go down in March!
