Don't call it a comeback....
It's a bit early to say and I'm definitely not playing at the right level to know for sure, but, I might be coming out of THE FUNK. Due to my current financial constaints, I'm stuck at the low, low limits (.05/.10) at UB.
This is not the worst thing, because the limits are low enough that I can play like I need to vs. my BR and the competition isn't all that great either. I've put in a total of 5-6 hours in and have run my $20 up to $80, not bad. Of course, I've had two ridiculous pots, both over $25, which has helped speed up the process.
My cards have definitely been better, but not spectacular. The funny problem I seem to have is that I'm catching a big hand now and then, but I always seem to be UTG when it happens. Still, AA or KK in any position is a nice problem to have. Anyway, I'm not complaining about starting hands, because they are starting to come. I've narrowed it down to 2 or 3 things that have helped slow the bleeding.
1) I tightened up. I had gotten pretty loose over the last 3 months. I got to where suited aces and two face cards looked good from any position.
2) I got aggressive and stayed aggressive. I played fewer hand PF, but when I played, it counted.
3) The math is starting to catch up. TP holds up. Sets aren't getting cracked....so this is what it's like on the other side of the fence.
It's only been 5 days since I dropped down and started making an honest attempt to play better, but I'm getting results. Hopefully, I can continue to build the BR up and start working my way up the ladder.
