Swear i am getting worse

Hi guys,

haven't been playing micro limit in ages, basically i made the mistake of playing tournaments and had a few big wins.

The mistake i am making is that i have moved away from the fish.

I would love any opinions on this as i have recently been evaluating my game and my approach,
basically i used to make a steady though small income playing against minnows and then i did as all half decent players do and attempted to go for the big money.
For me this meant tournaments and an early 600 and 2000 win made me a bit big headed.

however i believe the web has had a Darwinian affect on players, in that the strongest have survived, live games are still very soft and i do well (very well in live tournaments) however in online tournaments i usually go out just below the top 10% because basically a lot of good players are there and you won't make more than your lucks worth from a good player.

so i think i have learnt my lesson and will be playing again amongst the minnows making a steady stream of low level cash, though i do believe my micro limit game again needs some work as i have changed styles a lot with playing so many tourneys.

I would however recommend tournamentindicator to anyone who does want to play tournaments.

anyway expect to hear lots from me on the subject of micro limit as I will again be playing with avengance and probably starting off with losses as i did in the very beginning of my less than prestigious career.

Quitting Smoking and Allen Car

This post has nothing to do with Poker

After being congratulated in my new year post by Elaine Vigneault I would like to state that my reasons for quitting smoking were many but the one thing that inspired me to finally do it, was Allen Car dieing.

I have read his book a few times and although I never quit it always made me want to, I guess I always fooled myself that there was plenty of time I am still a young man.

However this man who had been free and healing for over 20 years was struck down with Lung cancer after helping so many others to quit.

I will not pretend that he did it for any other reason but good business sense as I do not know but I do know that millions of people have quit because of him.

In his book it constantly repeats will the next cigarette be the one to kill me, to spark of cancer or some other disease, well it scared me that a man who had been quit for that long had already had that cigarette and I just hope I have not had mine yet.

Anyway any smokers out there who wish to quit or ex smokers who have any advice for me please feel free to leave a comment here-even if you don't play poker.
