Yes, I've been a neglectful boy; but summertime is always crazy time for me - both at work and with family weekend obligations. Suffice it to say, this season went out with a wimper, with me failing to cash in the final 2 tournaments and the TOC. I didn't feel I was playing particularly poor, but I'm definitely not in my league crushing mode any more that I've enjoyed for the past 18 months.
Last night was T2 of season 2, and I busted out fairly early, firing with air against a resident calling station / luck box - yes, I should have known better.
We've changed our blind structure to a slower and more player friendly pace, I thought it would help my game, but against most of these guys I'm very impatient, because I know I'm a better player than all but a couple of them. I need to relax and let the good cards come. Now that I've established myself as wild/aggressive, I know that when I stumble across the nuts, or even the second nuts, I'm bound to get paid. Certainly if last night is any indication, I was called down with middle pair twice, back door flush draw and even when I went all in, I found myself up against a suited connecter that of course hit.
This is a good thing, I don't want to discourage such loose play - but I've got to adjust my game a bit, and think of it more like dealing with play chip players.
