Well xmas was good in many ways. But certainly not for poker. Im pretty sure im running worse than ive ever run before. It could be that im playing more tables than i used to and the variance is showing a little more but im not sure.

Due to xmas festivities i was required to remove a big chunk (Nearly all) of my BR. This ...
Well, i went to Newcastle this weekend to play in the SPT. Its a bigger buyin than i would normally play but i only do it once a year as a bit of a gift to myself.

I try to play a pretty solid game I avoid playing hands that are easily dominated, i play hands with good potential when theres good implied odds. I play position as much as possible ...
