OP,
You are not going to go from where you are now to a professional level player over night and start printing money. If you are having real life money problems fix them and then come back to poker. Poker isn't going to be the answer for you right now IMO.
Great advice. When feelings get too much in the way, it's a sure recipe for losing.xUnrated said:
RythmAndBlues, I have a question: You say you built 5000$ at a swedish poker site and then started playing at PokerStars. What's the name of that Swedish poker site (if I may ask)? And, why did you stop playing there if you were doing so good?
Yes i like hud
Well the HUD starts att around hand 10 000, the hands before is all without HUD
VPIP 21.65
PFR 18.72
The stats might be a little bit weird because i started playing with hud at around hand 10 000 and started a new play style

TBH all you need is a chip and a chair. A good poker player can turn 0$ playing freerolls using good bankroll management skills into anything.
Perhaps your lacking noticing your leaks/maybe setting a stop loss point sooner rather then later. Also attempt to shorten up your sessions, and make sure you review every session no matter if it is a winning session or loosing session, you can always learn and you will be surprised when reviewing winning sessions how many mistakes you actually made and maybe next time you will notice how to maximize ev in those similar spots/ same goes for loosing sessions.
You do not have to review all hands obvcourse, but I find reviewing biggest pots won and biggest pots lost has always been a good strategy for me to improve when on a downswing.

SvenskaSpel, i haven´t really stopped i play there sometimes but you can´t become rich on that site, it´s to little players and stuffs actually, but i play there sometimes anyway because i know there´s money to bring.FastOne said:

If 525$ means the world to you, cash out 90% of this and bank it at your local bank. and play with 52.50$ and play within your limits mate.
The only way you will be successful is if you approach the game as a job not a gamble.
Maybe read about variance and swings. Even the best players go on some insane massive downswings. TBH I don't think you should be playing anything above NL2 nL4 or Limit NL5 NL10 with 50-100$ bankroll until you understand and or grasp the concept of variance in poker bud.
