post some hand histories, mark hands containing any interesting decision ingame and review it yourself later. Then see if people agree with you.

you can sign up for dc for free and download vids, well, free just so long as you cancel the subscription within a week. I suspect that watching Newmanmi's vids will be of benefit to you so long as you focus on his standard stuff rather than his occasional out-there decisions.

there's a lot of other stuff about identifying and managing tilt around the place
Thanks for taking the time out daven to provide sound advice as per usual. There's definitely some good stuff in the link and I've consequently been 4-tabling 5nl Zoom when I'm not up for it or doing something else simultaneously to keep the bankroll ticking along. I'm beating it for a decent clip no matter how fuddled my brain is, so all good (in fact, I'm half thinking about doing a one-month mini challenge mass tabling 5nl, maybe trying to make $1k, but I wouldn't learn anything doing that).

As far as study goes, I watch quite a few videos on Grinderschool, read and re-read the strategy articles on here and occasionally read a book or play around with Pokerstove. It's amazing how much more depth you notice in the articles and the more detailed books in particular once you've got a lot more playing experience behind you, whilst the books I started out with just seem too basic now.

I review half a dozen of my biggest pots at the end of most sessions and fairly confident I'm learning where I'm going wrong. I do sod all database mining however and it's something I definitely need to get into. I had a fairly interesting recent trial with Leak Buster actually and it's something I'll probably purchase for the sake of a couple of BIs.

Thanks for the HU on dc - will take a proper look when I've got a week off over Christmas.

Cheers!
