Hello.
Regardless of who plays and at what level, each player must learn. If you want to make money, then learning is as necessary a process as the game itself. I have read two books so far, and no doubt I have greatly improved my results with these books.
Ed Miller "Texas Hold'em for Beginners"
Jared Tendler "Poker: The Game of the Mind".

Honestly, I had got a subscription to Masterclass. Not just for the courses provided by Phil Ivey and Daniel Negraneau, but there's courses on there for almost anything. But the poker ones were very eye-opening. Pot-odds, positional ranges, and how to bluff/spot bluffs are all covered. It was all super useful!

It depends on what games you play. If tournaments, then you better get one of the poker books for tournaments if you play cash, then get one of the books for cash games .

The best books by these 2 categories are:

MTT Books
Dan Harrington and Bill Robertie - Harrington on Hold 'em, all volumes.
Erick Lindgren with Matt Matros - Making the Final Table (2005) - A WPT book
Kill Everyone – by Lee Nelson
Secrets of Professional Tournament Poker – by Jonathan Little
Play Poker Like the Pros - by Phil Hellmuth

Cash Game books
The Grinder's Manual: A Complete Course in Online No Limit Holdem 6-Max Cash Games
Jonathan Little on Live No-Limit Cash Games

Hope that helps

I started my PokerStars classes at poker school. It was clear to me. Then I started watching streamers, and in the end, it was from my own experience.

You are in the right forum to learn a lot about poker
Try to play as many freerolls as possible and you will learn a lot.
There are also good tips on reading the forum.
Then try to play for money in low tournaments

Today, there are clear boundaries between gambling and sports poker, which allow professional players to create poker schools and win tournaments with huge prize pools. Poker rooms are interested in as many beginners as possible who play without a special strategy come to them. Therefore, those who want to earn money for a long time just started to cut off. But everyone can win a little money.

hello
I think the biggest book for you is to spend 3 hours a day playing poker in the beginning
over time you will gain practice and this will improve your game

I can recommend you streams from professionals who are active on twitch almost every day. It certainly adds a lot of value to be able to watch them play live these days. For example Lex Veldhuis I like to watch very much

it's never too late to start something so I think you should start playing poker and make some money

M1n1GuN777 · Jul 27, 2022

Let me rephrase: do you need to learn letters to read? I think the answer is obvious here. While you can rely on luck, it's a game after all, and luck may well allow you to beat a pro player, but I don't think you can always rely on it.

To6Po6 · Jul 27, 2022

Yep if you want to win some money you must learn some thinks and practis!

Hello, here in cards chat there is a very good course, if you want, there is the link:

You can also search the topic:

Learning Poker With #1 Poker Community | Forum

Beginners' corner for basic questions, general strategy and anything related to learning poker.

www.cardschat.com

and: https://www.cardschat.com/forum/tournament-poker-59/

I created these two threads with some tips:

Introduction and preliminaries to poker

You parachuted into an FT and 3-handed and BB Villain squezze 22 vs BT who had made 4x preflop and you had 55 and folded quickly but realized it was +EV because BT insta pushed AA.:eek: If you didn't understand anything I said, you're in the right topic!:joyman::vroam: Topic intended to meet...

Tips for tournament beginners.

From a lover for amateurs!:icon_joke My sincere thanks. First, I would like to thank everyone who helped me directly and indirectly. For now I feel free from my ghosts, doubts and longings. To those who did not give up and also to those who encouraged me to question myself and seek to extract...

www.cardschat.com

Also, if you search here on the forum you will find several valuable topics, there is even a topic about poker book titles, but at the moment I couldn't find it.
Regarding your initial question, about learning poker to make money, I'd rather say that it's good to learn poker for the interest of the game, not the money the dualistic focus in this way will only derail your learning. If you really like poker learn the game by game and the result and money will be consequences. No one can succeed doing what they don't like or out of an obligation to earn money on the pretext of learning.

TirariAchref · Jul 27, 2022

you can not make poker your only income because you can't always win it's like a hobby if you win that's good but you will lose more than you earning believe me.

Panda19977 · Jul 27, 2022

Skot_Gy · Jul 27, 2022

Cardschat's Become a winning player in 30 days is an excellent material

pavel1111111 · Jul 28, 2022

GoodMoon90 · Jul 28, 2022

Lots of practice plus watching poker streamers can go a long way in learning and improving the game

xaj9x · Jul 29, 2022

Hello😉 It all depends on you😉 No one but you will answer this question for you, it doesn’t work like that, if I say yes, you won’t start earning millions of dollars playing poker tomorrow😉

igorneia · Jul 29, 2022

so playing learn

dzsire · Jul 29, 2022

You should definitely learn the rules before you start.
But for online poker, you have to watch a lot of videos and sessions if you want to achieve something.

Recreationalplayer · Jul 30, 2022

For fundamental understanding of the game, you can ready recently published books like Modern Poker Theory which are based on Solver analysis.

There are many video tutorials available as well, if you are not into reading. At times video tutorials are preferable because it's easy to get a grip on Pot Size, player position and bet size in video rather than text.

KING1805 · Jul 31, 2022

The best way to learn poker is by playing it. Of course there are many courses online that teach you how to play it. They are useful if you are a complete beginner. But after you know the basics, you have to focus on different strategies and master them.

YuriSLopes · Jul 31, 2022

The books to recommend would relate to the goals you have with poker.

The grinders manual be Peter Clarck used to be a recommended NLH 6MAX... I read it and it helped me.

But not only books there's many other things to do so you can improve in poker.

And one good thing you've already done witch is to be part of CC.

Take advantage of the freerolls to practice the game whit people that are playing seriously cause it's for money, even though they didn't put any money which would be different from a play money game where you'll find way more reckless players.

If you have a bit of money try different games, try to learn about different platforms...

Things like that bud.

But to me... The more I learn about poker, the more I learn that I know #%*¨@$ about poker.

And it's been around 2 years that it's been more of a serious hobby.

Well, wish y'all the fattest pots!!!
