br ~$2480. I've had a lot more ups and downs recently. Maybe I'll get around to posting a graph soon.

I keep going through phases about my thinking of moving to Austin or not. Some days I think of all the reasons not to go while the very next I'll think of why I really want to. The best thing to do is write them down and see.

To go: improve my poker playing more rapidly
start making 4-6k month = 2.5-4x what I make now
exciting and fun

Not to go: keep job for minimum of few extra months for security
girlfriend
security of living near parents
get credit card payed off and a few k in the bank

As I wrote these reasons out I got the feeling that staying home for a few extra months would not be as far a setback as moving down there and going bust would be. Also, my car is a an absolute pos that might last another year or 2 or might blow up tomorrow, so I need to get something else.

Lately I haven't been puting in the work that I should to improve. I don't go over hand histories because I think about them in my head. Obviously going over the hands in pt I get to think about all possible situations and there isn't any errors in memory. It's been at least a month since I've watched a video.

Interesting hand I misplayed from last night. frnl100 loose guy 25-35vpip 12-15 raise% limps in early position. I raise kk to 4.5 mp.

aa7r flop ($10)
check call $7
3 turn
i bet $14 he min chkraised me
a river
he shoves 50something and I call
he's got 78o

I should have chked behind on the turn. With a non ace rvr I should have called a bet or bet/fold to a raise. With the ace on the rvr I would have bet/called a raise or raised a bet.
Alright, back to work
