I have seen improvement in my game, the last 2 years when I play. The good thing is the more you play, the more your game will improve. My game has improved with patience, even betting smaller to draw others in. I also don't drink beer as much, so I can make better decisions I make. When drinking I can be very careless, so that's how I know my game has improved. Also cashing into the money more often, which that helps.
