Dungbeetle has had a rocky start to 2009 mostly due to losses in live cash games. Hopefully he will turn things around now that he's focusing only on tournaments for the time being.
In 5 of my last 6 cash sessions the format has been the same - make steady profit for the first few hours when sober, before drinking compulsively and ending up a few hundred down.

McTap is a poker player who is working hard to continously improve every aspect of his game. I found this article about poker levels on his blog Blind vs. Blind and really enjoyed the way he used a specific tournament situation to reflect over his own game and discover new aspects of poker.
