Played with a couple more pros on Full Tilt including Gavin Smith and some Chan lady. I've been running bad, almost always getting in with the best hand Ax vs. Qx, and losing....consistently. Managing to break even still with a few second place finishes.

Improvement

played in the $1000+60 1k Monday tourney! ....and sucked!
also played a STT $100=9 with Lee Watkinson, beat him in a decently sized pot!

I'm getting better!

I am much better at folding "big" hands especially out of position. I also fixed a major weakness in my game.....betting too small. I now raise much more on average.

Ending Bankroll: $5,480
