yea i guess it could be worse.. but the last 50k hands have been ~2.2ptbb. i mean there are so many horrific players at nl50 its really frustrating that im not good enough to maintain a ~5ptbb. Not sure if ill improve faster if i drop down to nl25 and really focus.. or keep playing nl50 (and obviously try and really focus there too [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img])

ive got a pretty good idea of the very basics, vbetting, bet sizing, pf etc. but i clearly have some largish leaks that im not fixing. Time to really look at my game instead of just playing hands hoping i suddenly run hot

poker is a constant process of improvement, you should be looking to better yourself at all times. do you post many hands? i dont really remember you.

Full ring NL50? Maybe try droppin down to NL25 6max? Full ring is a nasty grind. 6max literally saved me.

Cardrunners is a good idea if you can afford it. StoxPoker is another video-coaching pay site. If not search here for videos players have posted. Also, FTR has some good, free videos - here

[corsakh]

Standard, you get plenty of value from a 20VPIP lagtard.

[Xanta]

I don't like your bet sizing on the river, but I think that everything else is good.
