First week of september: Have been grinding a lot, and i think i have fixed some of my leaks, but still not too happy about my game. I'm planning to not be agressive as before and try to play less marginal situations. I belive it's going to help me to grind steadily longer sessions.
1) I don't like my river call, and think i wasn't focused during my session.

3) i was 3 betting him a lot, because he folded postflop a ton. So his C/R dosen't make much sense, and he might want to play back to me. So i think it's standard. Turn call would be close if turn is smt like A;T;5 i think.

Yesterday was sweating one of estonian player in EPT barcelona main event who got 12th place. Had few % bought from him and unfortunately he didn't make to final table. Was really close to estonians biggest tournament win, he would needed a 4-5th place to make history.
Obviusly i havent been running good, but still i think i have made many mistakes and think i should have something like 2-3k$ profit more.:
