Update

Played a lot the last few days including a few hours this morning. I am doing quite well so far in the month of January. I have been doing a lot of thinking lately about tilt and what causes it, and how it can be prevented/minimized. In my opinion when I am playing my A game heads up I am very very tough and there are few people who can compete with me. The goal is to play my A game as often as possible and for as long as possible. I have always struggled with managing tilt in my game. Now when I talk about tilt I don't just mean donking off 5 buy ins with 7 high to the nuts, I am talking about playing in any state that is not my A game. That means when I am slightly tired or angry or whatever it might be I may be I probably shouldn't seek out tough heads up games. Sounds simple right? I am going to try to control "tilt" more in the next few weeks and see how I do.

Total change of topic.... I am currently on break since I didn't take a J term class and so between now and the 27thish I will probably be playing a good 4+ hours a day of poker. I played a bunch of MTT's yesterday including the $1k tuesday special on stars and the $100 rebuy on there. I just have ran like total crap in MTT's the last year or so and they are really pissing me off. For the most part I am going to focus on cash games the next few months and lay of the MTT's.

Heres to a good January,
