Not doing a stop-win anymore
I don't know what I was thinking earlier when I said that I was going to try a daily stop-win... lol.
It's a really dumb idea and doesn't make any sense at all. All it does is add false pressure to hit the daily goal that is extremely unnecessary... this made it more difficult to make the correct decisions while playing. Also, it caused me to check my account balance like every 5 minutes which just kills my play because it's so distracting. So no more stop-win or anything stupid like that anymore.
I'm just going to try and play shorter sessions like I did today... about 2-3 hours long. That should solve my problem of my quality of play dropping after like 800-1000 hands.
I ended up playing 600 hands on Stars today and made about $1k.
Most of the hands were pretty standard.
Here's one that is pointless as far as a learning perspective, just a brutal suckout that I feel like putting on here. The villain was a pretty big fish.

Other than this hand, the most I ever lost in one single hand was $100 and that was a failed 4-bet bluff.
I went duck hunting again this weekend with my Dad and it was a lot of fun. We shot a total of 20 ducks and a Canadian Goose over two days of hunting.
