Default Re: $200 in PP, now what?

A thought - you may not be nearly as cold decked as you think you are. Have you got any way of tracking your stats yet? I click call or raise just slightly under once in 6 hands on average and that's if you count the small blind. Winning poker requires a *lot* of patience.

Even if you are cold decked you're going to have to find a way to deal with this patience issue if you want to win in the long run. A while back before I was as detached as I am now, when my cards were sucking or I was making a lot of second best hands, I would visualize the site being out to get me or that the other players were cheating me. Then when I got dealt that tempting but no good hand out of position I would just think "nice try, beeotch" and fold it away and gloat to myself.

You've got to find something.

FYI, there is nothing wrong with calling from EP with JTs at any low limit table you should consider sitting at. As most authors and experts will tell you, perfect preflop play can get you to break even. What you do from there will determine whether you're a winner or a loser.
