Escaping the Micros

A little late with the update this week but I have been very busy and had to postpone writing down my rantings

The Grind
I played about 6000 hands last week and it was a really though ride. A you can see from the graph every session looked like a swing in the opposite direction of the previous session. I ended up the week about BE if I account for rb.
I was very satisfied however that I have not played a single session longer than 55 minutes, whether I was up a ton or down a ton, I never played more or less then 50-50 minutes. This is something I would like to keep up for the rest of my poker career actually.

Nice hand imo:

Video
I have not recorded a video yet but I will record one this week, with audio this time as requested.

The Study
Have not found the time to check out one DC vid, I know it’s outrageous ! However, my exams are coming up and I have a pretty nice shedule so I should fine some time to view at least 3 vids a week in the next few weeks.

Some very interesting threads on DC this week.

I have something in my mind that I have been wanting to write down for a few days but I still haven’t found the time to do so.. I hope to post it somewhere tomorrow.

This thread by Malefiicus is just the stone cold nuts imo, go read it now!

Interesting hand where I squeeze fold AKo to get value from a fish

Life

It has been snowing like crazy the last few days in Belgium, really fun to watch :)

Christmas Is coming up and since it is a tradition in my family to have dinner while unpacking presents for one another whole night long, I again spent a chunk out of my life bankroll to get everybody something nice, especially the children in the family.

My internet connection finaly got arranged, seems that the telephone wires were connected wronly at the street corner.
