I wanted to try and play 20 hours a week this year. So far I'm only averaging about 3.
Way behind, and I've spent a lot of time studying poker instead.
I don't think it's been a good balance because putting concepts into practice takes repetition. I've likely got a lot of things running round in my head that I don't fully understand, things I'm confused about etc. Better to focus on just one new study area at a time, practice that, incorporate into our game to the point where we have a solid understanding of it before moving on to a different element to study. I've looked at lots of different things and really enjoy studying!
Going to play much more now. Expecting bad results for a short period at least.
