Age - 19

Experience at all forms of poker -
I've been playing/studying at .25/.50 or .50/1 LHE, 25NL, and 3.40 SnG's alternately at stars for about a year. Without bragging, I'm very mathematically oriented and have zero trouble with this part of the game. But my intuition/pattern recognition of other players is lagging, and I'm kind of spinning my wheels in the mud. I deposited 250 dollars, made 100, lost 150, etc. etc. I've never gone busto but never been above 400. So i've basically been trying to learn but going nowhere.

Max tables - I could probably 8-table with no problem

Current bankroll - Around 500

I hope to master the parts of poker that aren't memorizing hand requirements and pot odds. I hope to be able to gain that fundamental skill of what essentially is pattern recognition, what a 1/2pot bet from a certain player means opposed to a pot bet or other countless subtelties. I'd be lying if I said being a huge NL balla wouldn't be awesome, but primarily I want the satisfaction of mastering an incredibly complex game. SOOOOOO many people claim to 'know' NLHE, but very few can actually consistently play for a good profit. I love the challenge of self-improvement, and want to learn in order to better my game and myself in the process.

Clayton can vouch for me, he is the only 2p2er I know in real life. I can also get further recommendations that would be acceptable, I'm sure.
