If I see one more set....

I have moved from chip-utility drills to small-ball practice, but I am having a HELL of a time getting away from an over-pair when I run into a SET.

I am banging my head on the table. Look, if you play me at all in the next week and you raise me on the turn and I dont fold, just type SET into the chat box to remind me what a DONK I am.

I would also like to PIMP a poker podcast, Poker Soup TV. Other than occasionally leaving the podcast running for an extra hour while they play poker on skype, I really like to return to old-school poker podcasts where people talk about hands. No, take that back. Where you dont just TALK about hands for a few seconds, but you analyze hands. I miss that so much. (Get them on itunes).

I haven't been reading your blog for very long, so apologies if this is an ignorant question that you've already covered - but what is a chip utility drill? Is this an exercise spelled out in Poker Tournament Formula 2? I'm not all the way through it yet because I didn't feel like I really mastered PTF1 before I got into it. Thanks!

Cool - I should read the rest of it then! Did you find these drills effective?

If by "effective" you mean "Lost a lot of money", then yes. very effective.
