Mental Game Forum

immediately after session I look how many hours I played and then rate how well I played just by feeling.. and after that I look my money won$ and other stats.

sometimes I make some corresction when I think I rated wrongly.

and by that "quiting because tilt" I didnt mean that I start to monkey-tilt and stack off lightly etc. I just means that im geting tired and I cant play my A-game. so I stop playing.

cheers

yes. my C-game has improved a lot.

because now I recognise how well I play and I know whats my leaks in that mindset.

for example when facing decision to bluff all in or not, I fold(take lower variance move) when I im C-gameing but i bluff AI when im A/B-gameing. 

because I have noticed that when I C-game I tend to stack off to lightly and FPS.

cheers.

Jared said:Check that – I just looked at your earlier graph – and from what I can tell you're worst – D/E games are nearly eliminated. Great stuff- how is tracking it helping you to do that?  Also, are you finding the quality of your A-game is improving?

My A-game isnt improving specially(but ofc its still improving) but I my C-F games are improving a lot.

basically when I D-F game then Im losing money and before mentaltracker I D-F gamed ~10hours /month. 

And now only fewer then 1 hour.

and imo its all becouse I can now complete recognize what x-game Im playing. 

when im D-F game – I just qouit playing.

when im C game im a lot more cautious/watchful and I dont make the mistakse I know I want to make.. for example when im OTB and thinking about 3beting.. I wont to it when im C-gameing becouse I know that I tend to 3bet too much when im not on my A/B-game.

so this kinde of awareness helped to improve my C game tragicly.

edit: and mentaltracker also helped my overall hapiness/well-beeing a lot  becouse I dont think about swings, losing/winning money, tilting etc anymore.

I just try to be satisfied with that day(so I could make "yes" note to "Am I satisfied with that day?") and thats all.. so when im losing a lot of money but A/B-gamed 4 hours then I just happy becouse of the hours I put in.

AND when for some reason I cant play poker(bad mood, hangover,etc) I can still be satisfied wiht that day. (ie when I try several times to play but cant becouse of tilt, I then workout, watch videos, etc and im still happy about that day(becouse I did everything in my power to have a perfect day) )

hope it makes sense.

This looks great!

Is there another copy of this available?
