All i can say about March is that it was an amazing learning experience. For the first half of the month I was playing well and making good decisions and then midway through the month the wheels fell off. What I have come to realize about playing poker at the micros is that if your a better player you can outlevel yourself. You assume because your capable of 3bet getting in AK for value that your opponents are. Well, sadly thats incorrect, when a weaker opponent 3bets preflop, its normally what he considers a strong hand. Now obviously different villains consider different hands strong and that is where we have to interpret stats etc, but for the most part they have what they are representing. This is also the case for raises postflop. When they are raising they have it, when they are weak they are calling you down. I for the second half of the month forgot this and as a result I broke even for about 30k hands. Now there were some coolers and unavoidable spots in there for sure but for the most part I got away from the things that have let me be so successful at the micros.

As we enter April it is going to be my goal for the month to get back to playing the A game that got me to where I am today and not some fancy hero calling monkey that results in blah results.

April Goals: -
[ ] 100k hands (less bc im in Cleveland with Nfeugo20 and Vizer02 watching the Rangers v Indians)
[ ] Continue with more 100pl if the games are good
[ ] Final Table MTT .... one time
[ ] Focus on playing A game at all times
[ ] More coaching
[ ] Exercise and get mentally ready for 6 weeks in Vegas
