Let me guess. You've gone thru a downswing, poker is painful, you're not playing, etc. Drop down a level, grind it out. Just do it. Stop whining. You dont need inspiration, you need perspiration. [/ QUOTE ] Where in my post did I whine or mention a downswing? I wrote a positive, constructive post outlining 4 changes I will implement to better myself as a man and a poker player. |

I'm not following the PT train of thought. What exactly are you doing with PT? You're checking your PT results more frequently? [/ QUOTE ] No, I'm setting my PT to update 1/minute while adjusting it's CPU priority to below normal. This makes looking at stats unbearable because the program freezes constantly while it imports. |

Sorry Jeff, I feel like I might just be missing entirely what you're trying to say on this one. Nigel |

1. Prop bet. Currently, Madtown and I have one running where we have to average 1k hands/day/week. At the end of the week, if one of us is under quota, we have to shell out $10 for every 100 hands under.
2. Come up with a schedule. TimM and Krishan have posted about their schedules. 3. Read Mastery by George Leonard. |

I was regularly putting in 30-50 hours a week while completing senior year for a physics degree. [/ QUOTE ] I think this is ridiculous. Amazing too. I wonder if it doens't skew your definition of long hours a bit. I think 30hrs is very very good for a pro. Anything above is phenomenal. 12.5 on the other hand is a bit weak. Krishan |

He probably needs to continuously import while playing so that Playerview can update. |

I just thought from his post there was some de-tilt strategy he was using by checking PT more often, and that sounded backwards, but I wanted to make sure there wasn't something I was missing that may be a good idea to incorporate myself!

I don't use an overlay or keep PT running while I play, but I do obsessively look at the cashier to see how much I have on the tables. If I change tables I always buy in for the exact amount I took off the previous table. I'm not sure I could stop if I wanted to.
