Christmas time and poker

So I haven’t updated for a while, pretty much due to only playing one day in 2 weeks, being the 29th December. However, two hands occurred that day of interest one being the most traded call by someone for the year, can he seriously think 10 high is ever good, it wasn’t even a quick mis-click

Christmas has been very good having a break, only downside is eating and drinking too much has caused me to get a cold, so much so I missed all the New Years celebrations which sucked. So my New Years resolutions are to drink a lot less and not go out for the sake of going out. Also cutting out drinking at home whilst playing poker, whilst it doesn’t really affect me when I had a few, its when i get to the point of more than a few and I’m down for the evening I can’t bring myself to quit the game.

I am hoping to quit drinking during January to hopefully curb the belly growth that is occurring, so more gym no drink is the January for Champions. I am also going to play less poker live and play more online. I am still a bit under the whether so have curbed NL50 for a bit but as my roll is at $2,041, if I work it up to $2,150, my mindset will weirdly be more comfortable playing it.
