What's been happening:

More research on Sleep/Diet/Exercise to improve mental clarity and play at peak more often and for longer. Mainly sleep this week. I have a stack of papers to sort through, understand, and pick out the pieces that will help. I already know there is a LOT of improvement that can be made in this area.

Those 3 things look to be the 3 pillars of good physical and mental health and something I'm very interested in for the high stress, long hours, thought/memory intesive profession that I'm in. I'll try to blog more on findings, things to change, ways to implement etc. when I can. One thing that I think will be very helpful is synching my sessions with circadian rhythm peaks. It would be nice if that aligned with high traffic times. So far, online reports say online traffic peaks at either 2 or 4p.m. ET. Unfortanately, 2p.m. is typically a circadian rhythm dip. Well, I'll figure it out. I also want to start incorporating power naps between sessions to improve awareness. More on all this later.

Didn't get to read more on economic theory applications to poker, but it's on the agenda.

Tonight is Alan's game. Robin is coming to it tonight. No specific plans which is my fault. I definitely could have spent a couple hours thinking about it rather than watching Sopranos episodes. I definitely want to incorporate some preflop 3betting/squeezing at some point, not so much to balance my range (doesn't matter vs them), but to pick up a TON of preflop dead money. They will also think that because I am so aggressive pre-flop with some bluffs, that'll I'll be bluffing just as much post-flop, which will not be the case at all. Not tonight though. Just going to play, try to focus on each hand, play well, and enjoy the evening.

Tomarrow, I will be definitely getting in some hands and starting rakeback. It's nose to the grindstone time.
