Session 3/4

Session 3:

Hands: 781
Net Win: $67

The above was a frustrating session, albeit with some lessons to take away. I won't talk about it much, but basically I was $2k up until the last half hour or so and I resolved to always do 90 minute sessions now before having breaks.

Session 4:

Hands: 449
Net Win: $1589

Concentration: 9-
Preplay Prep: 10 - food check, exercise check, slept check, happy check, room tidy check
Avoiding RE: 10
Cbetting strategy: 10
Don't Reward The Nit: 10
Regular Timing: 1 - Didn't do it
Applying Pressure: 10

So, I applied huge amounts of pressure in both sessions, especially in session 4 where I basically resolved to be a complete animal right from the off, hence:

Been a fan of the cold call of 3bets for a while now, it's just an instance where you get enormous respect for having 1010-QQ postflop.

Session 5 coming up, I need to be aware of all the usual stuff, but also exactly when each reg hits their tipping point to all the aggression I'm piling onto them. The problem with the first of the above two sessions was that I got a bit confused with how different regs had started to react, and I should have read the early warning signs and readjusted much better. I'll be hoping to nail that part of my new approach further today....
