Also have some neck/shoulder problems that got alot worse the last few weeks, so that is definitely influencing my game. As it's always distracting me and it's a pain in the ass. Visiting a specialised chiropractor for that tomorrow. :)

How did it went ??

He found some things i didn't think about yet. (I'm studying physical therapy myself). Couple of muscles are shortened/weakened on the bottom side of my shoulderblade, which causes that the topside has to do more work. Giving me the annoying pain in my neck/shoulder.

Now he wants me to think of some strengething and stretching muscles for myself and i can see him work on other patients in the future. +EV for my study i hope :)

@circoflax, can't recall playing any big pots playing vs you :(

Lol, just sitting behind my laptop and the position i actually have to keep my shoulder is quite difficult. Tend to lean way too much forward with my shoulders, rightside even more cuz it's my mouse hand. Hope i'll see progress fast, what i feel now is more 'standard' muscle pain after a training than the aching pain i had in another region of my neck/shoulder.

if you GIVE me $$.

Made a new database in HEM this afternoon, the old one was getting quite depressing and this way i can spot leaks faster that snuck into my game. with 111k hands in the old one, everything gets a bit blurred imo cuz i played different styles.

Played a short session on 888, don't know if i'm up/down, not planning on checking my results to avoid tilt. I'm 1BI from BE, either up/down is my guess.

There was this 88/7 guy that called everything and won every showdown :(, my w@sd was only 9%

Played an hour on stars, not planning on looking at my results. I know i'm up, cuz i ran pretty wel and played good.

Clicking on that '2' on my taskbar is pretty tempting tho, but it'll only tilt me when i'm running bad.

Okey i did yesterday, to check my last results of february, up ~4BI. No time to open HEM atm, but one funny hand.

I open CO, Btn3bet, i 4bet QJo as bluff, he calls. Flop is T9x twotone, i have bdflush. i opt to ch/shove to get a bet in from some of his Ax and other stuff. And bet/calling has less ev i assume.

Well he bet so small, i still couldn't really shove, so i just made a random size which made me 100% comitted. He snapshoved with Q7cc, making me a 87% favorite or so with Qhigh lol.

Had a very nice party last night to end Februari, ended at 8 in the morning. Seeing people going to work again is so awkward and fun at the same time.

Badrun continues, keep running into random hands that someone shouldn't have. Or getting called down by 4th pair by stupid fishes. Longest downswing of my life for sure. :(

You're not alone. I'm also running like sh*t. I should disable run-it-twice, I can't win flips even in 2 runs. :f_mad:

P.S. Why can't people fold striaghts on a 3flush+paired board? :f_cry: :rage:

Cards are falling a bit better, hit a royal flush today, but still have to fold the 'semi-coolers'.
Won 3 Buyins last session, which i'm pretty happy with, still down this month, but getting back on track.

Oeh thats a bit of the pain with the money issue :( But then again it might be a great motivation to really make big money in poker? I don't know, never been in that spot.

GL anyway!
