Tip of the day: As soon as you stop trying to improve is when you should quit.

I've learned so much more in the last two weeks than I've learned in the past 6 months. The main reason is because I'm on break now and have played everyday grinding out one or two sessions a day. I've learned how to play more hands and can now win more and more consistantly. Here is a hand from today that I thought was really cool. This is the second time I've done this.
