@Keith: Good stuff the idea about having some kind of escrow is something I'd have shied away from in the past, but given my past failings is probabally not a bad idea. The phrase gambling problem has all sorts of negative connotations to it but, I will be the first to admit the way I gamble with my BR is definately a huge problem for my poker development. I never spend money I can't afford to lose, I'm not the sort of person who would gamble my last couple of quid trying to win some money back or anything like that, but the way I gamble on the poker tables is definately harming my development as a poker player and thats definately a problem!
@Erpel: Yeah I agree some study definately wouldn't go amiss, I'm no expert at the tables far from it, but I would say I know a little bit about poker now, what's costing me, which has always been costing me, is my discipline at the table, and I don't think any amount of studying will teach me how to be disciplined at the table, that's something that's got to come from inside myself. That's what I hope to develop over the next 1,000 SNGs.
One thing I've decided to do though is take things a bit more slowly this time around, in the past I've just been full intensity playing poker at every opportunity trying to cram in the sessions thinking this would increase the BR and the speed I climb up the poker ladder. I'm slowing down now, taking things at a more leisurely pace, since I decided to start the SNGs about twenty odd hours ago I haven't played any, I've just relaxed, read some FTR and chilled out at home now I'm about to play some I feel very relaxed and am looking forward to them.
Went to a nightclub yesterday had a good time it was far too long since I'd been to a night club, I need to start going more regularly. Put me in a great frame of mind for doing well in the poker.
