Good luck with your goals MicroMachina, you have already shown here what you're capable of, so you just have to keep your effort and concentrate on the table.

Tyvm Fakiry. I have been really busy and not able to engage poker properly. Im going to grind some freerolls tonight to get the discipline back. My social life had started conflicting with my poker and when that happens poker needs to take a break. People are more important then Poker but so many times id enter a game then someone would drop in and i could either act like a fiend and tell em i was busy or walk away from a tourny deep. Summer in Canada is exponentially busier then Winter for obvious reasons and my line of work isnt seasonal per se but pretty darn close since we nearly shut down over winter. So if i can;t find a good balance before winter things will stabilize then.

Great vid Micro! Wondered why I haven't seen you in the forum or at least in Carbon once in awhile. Glad you stopped in long enough to post in the forum and hopefully I'll see you on the felts this evening.
Teddy, i felt horrid about the micro game we played in where i donked off a second pair on river.
GM, i kept missing you. i didnt know the tabs dropped down so i couldnt watch you play.
I tried grinding back again on hero but lacked the discipline and havent engaged pokerstars like i should to expect good results. Today i logged on here and read BeMyATMplZ's thread and was instantly Inspired. I then proceeded to bink two sng's in a row (18/45 player). I also made glorious runs in two mtt's but min cashed in one and went out short in a KO game but made my buy+2$ before i got felted.
A couple days ago i flirted with awesomeness sitting pretty in a 10k gtd with over 400k in chips before i got dealt AK in sb and shoved on bb who had 1.1 milly and snapped me off and out with 44 and door card 4. My runs in the mtt's have been nice but im always just falling short and i know its a lack of discipline. The AK hand shows that. In hindsight knowing his range is likely pretty wide i should of opened standard and folded if all i had was air.
I did make a video id like a couple peeps opinions on when i get it up. I was fortunate i think in many spots but would like further analysis to either reinforce my play or alter it to better capitalize or benefit my game.

8/23/12-
Been ducking in and out of play lately around work mostly. Ill be playing a short session tonight and will catalogue the games. Im initially thinking of 4 tabling the 3.50 18 player games. My roll is just under a c-note thanks to 3 2nd place finishes in a session two days ago minus yesterdays folly. Welp, wish me luck. I have had a few drinks so im not sure about capturing anything. Ill try and maybe my instant gratification will have been subdued enough by the erb and drink that i wont need to play poor holdings for stimulation. Heres to hoping
