Smooth 3, Nemo's 0!!

Great night by me,3 stt's & finished in the top 5 in them all for a profit (after fees etc) of $31.50!! I never seemed to put myself in any tight spots,suffered a couple of bad beats but stuck with it and did the business. 2 things have helped me imo,the 1st was getting hammered a few weeks ago & losing a big chunk of my money!! We can (& do) moan about beats but it was a mixture of them & my bad play,perhaps i had won a few then got complacent with regards to positional play and a lack of discipline etc. It didnt help poncing around on the cash tables! no more of that for the time being,best i learn more about sng's & tourneys,at least ive got half a clue playing these!! The 2nd bit of help was an article i read in the current issue of the 'WPT POKER' magazine.It was written by Frankie Armstrong and covered a 9 player sng that he played,he wrote about every hand whether he played it or not.Reading his thoughts on strategy as the blinds increased and his analysis of his play and his opponents was very helpful. I love to play but i read loads about the game to hopefully improve,time will tell if i can implement this knowledge and be a better player not a losing fish!!! gl all....laterz
