Default Project No-Look (No content... and that\'s the whole point!)

This post serves to document the beginning of my journey into the information void to fight the stats noise that I feel is negatively impacting my game. Sort of my own personal caamora (for those who catch the reference).

As I alluded to in another thread, I'm following in Yugo's footsteps and making a public vow not to look at my ROI, ITM or any other stats except for total bankroll (and I'm not even going to track that very closely). I'm going cold turkey on this, so my intial goal is to do it until last month's rakeback hits my account, which is generally around the 15th. Not a long time by most standards, but since I look at my stats every day, if not more often, it could prove difficult for me. If I make it that long, I'll decide if I feel that it's helping me and if so, I'll see if I can go longer.

So here we go... (as I warned, there's not a lot of content here):

Day 1: Played about a dozen or so SnGs last night. Made some money.

ITM: ???
ROI: ???

That is all.

Since we're talking No-Look....

A little yellow post it note to put over your hole cards when you're supposed to push any two helps you get used to that aspect of the game also.

I might try that sometimes, but I'm likely to find out how I'm doing when I go to sign up for a SNG and realize I don't have $33 in my account.

I still monitor that BR a bit -- I just make sure I have at least 4 figures in there...

Thanks -- I had to do a lot of searching to find the right combination of poker and hottie.

So is the fact that she's so hot supposed to distract us from the fact that she drew 7 cards?? [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

It helped me last another few weeks...

I am now on a 2 week break from playing any form of poker starting today (it was gonna start last Thursday but the damn 2+2 get together messed everything up...).

If I post here, then it will most likely not be on a hand or very poker related (in other words, I'll continue to provide no content, ever, right Degen? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] ).

I still welcome pms from anyone...but hopefully I can actually stop logging onto this stupid thing for awhile during my poker break.

Maybe she's playing 7-card pass-the-trash. Heck, I'd play whatever she wants to play...
