Thanks :-) I think I phoned everyone I know in existence lol (and the copy of the globe newsletter will be stuck on my wall)

It's funny - it's done my confidence no end of good. I was aware my game was above average, but I was still making rookie mistakes - Weak raises, innapropriate limping, calling all-ins without checking who the blinds were, and worst of all, predictable play - either going loose and then not varying my game - and hence getting absolutley everything called or raised, or playing too tight and letting everyone steal my chips with big raises against me. Last night I really concentrated and it payed off.

The best bit is I don't remember any moments where I did a total coin toss. Everything was calculated as much as was possible. There was a hairy moment when I thought I'd lost most of my stack to 2 all-in calls but iut turned out I made the right choice and they had weak hands they'd played due to being on the blinds.

Love it! :-)
