Good session, feeling happier with myself, but not complacent. I can't allow the attitude of session 3 to come back....

In terms of river spots, I played this hand badly:

PF's a bit meh as well, but Ron's a big fish and I was looking to isolate. River is one of those stupid meh spews..... c-call much better I think.

I only lost more than $100 in one hand, which was AK vs QQ CO vs BTN aipf, very standard. Winning big non-showdown pots, and never losing them, is of course central to my game; and the key to this all stems from PF. PF was good this session.

About to play session 5. Limiting myself to a set time worked out last session so I'm going to do that again. 60 minutes this time. I'm feeling vaguely light headed, putting my mental condition at probably 7/10. I've just eaten and drank, so should improve as the session goes on. If it gets worse, I need to have the will to stop immediately.

Session 5 coming up....
