Too many irons in the fire.
April 21st, 2006 · Posted in poker ·I’ve been ignoring my blog because I’ve got six different projects that I’m juggling at once. Some of them are boring from my real life, but I’ve also grown obsessed with the game of 
When I’m not having to actually do something with it, I’m reading the deliberations of the various camps and alternately laughing at their Machiavellian schemes or marvelling at them. It has been a blast.
The other big time suck is that I’ve been playing micro limits and culling hand histories to try to prepare an ITH Poker Tutor lesson. I think it is going to be pretty neat and it is something that the newer players call for. They often think that the play at 30/60 is totally different from 0.50/1.00 and that some of us give them crazy advice. Hopefully, some of these lessons will show them that poker is poker, no matter what the limit. It is amazingly more difficult to find appropriate hand histories to make a specific point that you would think. You can’t really make it tell a logical story from start to finish, because the real world just isn’t that neat. I hope that there will at least be a few nuggets in there somewhere.

Ah, mafia… so much to say on that one… look forward to seeing your tutor lesson. Hopefully it will make people less worried about saying things like “well I don’t play at the same limits as you but here’s what I’d do..” in the hand examples forum.
