All of my bitching and moaning the last few days has given me an opportunity to review SlowHabit's new book for free. I'll be taking some time off the tables the next few days so this will give me some time to read through it and hopefully learn a lot. I'll be posting up a brutally honest review after wards and let you all know how it is. You can read about it SlowHabit's website. This is the same site with the CTS' book that was greatly discussed on here. I should have the review up in a day or so after I finish reading it. Here's more info:
As far as poker goes I've been going out of my mind recently. Sessions have been ridiculously swingy with me starting off going negative immediately, grinding back, and then slamming back down. I've just been grinding it out and sticking to it. I probably would have given up had I not recently bought a 24" monitor but it's kept me motivated to grind and I'm on pace to play the most hands I've ever played in one month + I was on vacation for a week away from everything and I work full-time. I probably bitch and moan as much as everyone on here, and maybe even more, but I'm also the kind to celebrate when something goes good too.
This hand gave me so much joy preflop, crushed my heart on the turn, and gave me life on the river. I'm not close to going busto but I am close to going insane. So here it is:
