So I am hoping that I did this right, because I am a complete technology donk, even though setting up a blog probably doesn't even count for technology, o well. I am pretty sure I got it right on my first try.
So I am usually terrible about keeping an updated blog, but I am going to change that because I think a well kept blog can be a crucial part to improving my game. So now I am going to try and list ways to improve my blog to a "well kept blog"
First of all I think one of the most important parts to having a blog is posting hands that I think I could have poorly and going over my thoughts about the hand. Once I go over why I made the play that I did, it is now my job to seek out other opinions on how I could have played the had better, instead of just trying to justify why I played the hand the way that I did.
I remember when I used to read Muckemsayuhhhh's blog, back when he still used to go by that, and when he was moving up the ranks in NL he posted every single hand on his blog in which he got stacked. Even if it was completely standard or not, he posted every single hand and went over why he played it that way. This had to be such a huge part to his quick success, and I think this is a good idea for everyone to do.
I am probably not going to post every hand where I get stacked, but also try and look over the medium sized pots that I could have played differently, and any hand that I had trouble with and wasn't sure how I wanted to play it, or felt there were multiple lines that could be good.
My only problem with that is I really want to quit checking my results after each session. I want to just keep track of how long I played, and then plug in my hourly rate and I will know precisely how much I made in that session, and then I never ever have a losing session, as long as I play well and don't lose more than variance entails. So the problem is with PT3 I don't quite know of a good way to go through a sessions hands without looking at my overall results, and I don't really know if there is a good way to do it. However I think this is possible in Holdem Manager, which I plan on purchasing shortly.
So basically I am going to start maintaining my blog more regularly, and posting hands from that days session that I think were questionable. I will then seek out some responses from the members in my study group, and post them on forums, and if it's a really good hand I will seek out my coaches advice. These are the things that I must start doing, and if done correctly I think my game will improve dramatically.
