A good day, but not a great one...5 hrs of play, 1 hr of study. I can see already that this first week is going to be very study intensive, and I'm ok with that. I've had a "lightbulb moment" that has revealed some major mistakes I was making with my strategy and I want to research those areas further, review some hands, and fine tune the adjustments I'm making to make sure they are correct. In addition, I want to digest two books this week (it's likely the second one is going to carry over to next week).
I have a feeling that the whole summer is going to be like this...a cycle where I discover a problem area, focus on studying/reviewing hands/making adjustments and then go back to the tables and put in the hours with the newfound knowledge. It's unlikely I'll be playing exactly 35 hrs a week and studying for 10...much more likely to be one week of heavy study followed by a week or two of heavy play, rinse, repeat, etc.
