Honestly, I think the next question you should be asking is, what do I want to be? How far do I want to go? I mean, if you're just enjoying the game, there's a lot of great videos and stuff on YouTube that can help you improve. Go around the cards chat, ask questions of good players. Many of us are really willing to help you, and that could be a really big boon to your game. Now, if you want more, ask yourself where I'm at right now. Are you still a micro stakes player who is losing money? You don't want to go too crazy into your growth by overdoing where you go. But if you are all serious, I would suggest really thinking about finding a poker coach, or just going onto a poker training site. As for the sites, I would pick something that fits you. I do have my personal preference, and feel free to reach out to me if you want to know what that is and how I do it. But I also take the game very seriously, even though I play for the enjoyment of it. But before anybody can really answer your question, you really need to ask where are you planning to go on this journey.
Ask yourself everything Luvepoker says above(being half realistic lol) keeping in mind 85-90% of poker players are losing players long term. While you do that I think the start is right here with CC free 30-day course...... https://www.casino.us/poker/strategy/become-a-winning-poker-player/
Many recommend this book for the mental game/side. There is also a second version https://www.indigo.ca/products/the-mental-game-of-poker?variant=46166186983601
Once you're done there there's plenty of free stuff on knowledge, info and players who stream poker on Twitch, Youtube and all over the internet. Plenty good enough to get you enough poker knowledge to get you up too at least 10nl and 25nl. Also start working on the following: bankroll management, patience, mental toughness/tilt control, discipline and game selection. Best of luck on your poker journey.
Cheers!!!

E aí, mano, quero muito te agradecer por ter dedicado seu tempo e compartilhado seu conhecimento para me ajudar a seguir o caminho certo. Ainda estou jogando nos micro stakes — às vezes chego na zona de premiação, outras vezes fico perto — mas sinto que preciso evoluir para sair dessa rotina de levar bad beats de jogadores que dão all-in com J4 offsuit. Se você tiver alguma recomendação de site que possa me ajudar, eu agradeceria muito. Sério, obLuvepoker said:
Hey brother, I really want to thank you for taking the time and sharing your knowledge to help point me in the right direction. I'm still playing the micro stakes—sometimes making the ITM, other times coming close—but I feel like I need to evolve to get out of this routine of taking bad beats from players shoving J4 offsuit. If you have any website recommendations that could help me out, I'd really appreciate it. Seriously, thanks again!Luvepoker said:
Use the free GTO Wizard account for getting some ranges this may help. Most poker sites have very limited free training drills but this may help also.Dolacio89 said:
Combining multipele sources for training.
Hey there, brother. I'm gonna message you on the side the information that you'll love. But there's one thing that your response to me really told me that I found interesting. You're never gonna get rid of the bad beats. It just does not happen. The thing is, you have to learn not just to accept them, but love them too. I know it sounds odd and counterintuitive. I just literally got my aces cracked by somebody who called my all-in with ace-five offsuit. Yep, yeah, they flopped two fives and beat me. It hurts. It's annoying. It's a pain. Yet I was 90% favorite pre-flop to win the hand. Yeah, I got knocked out today, but nine times out of ten, I got what I want: an easy victory from a bad hand. mean, deep down, I Don't want to lose to a bad beat. But if a player is trying to give you their chips, accept the losses. Because, frankly, it's really what you want. You want them calling and getting lucky versus you, than you lucky versus them. Another thing I will suggest here so the world can see, is also evaluate your bad beats. Some bad beats from these type of hands are horrible, but there are times where it's not bad luck; it's bad play on our part. A friend of mine kept complaining about PokerStars, or was it ACR at the time, and how he had lost eight straight hands in a row with aces. Next day he comes over and shows me his hand history, and he had lost two more. I looked at the first hand, like, why in the world are you doing this? Second hand was normal, okay, no problem. But as I kept looking at his hands, he kept making interesting decisions. Just because you have an overpair to the flop, turn, and river, doesn't mean you should keep betting or getting all the chips in and inflating a pot. They are bad beats, but he allowed them to happen by not raising six limpers. You know, aces, if you get to heads up, is 82 percent favorite versus six limpers, and you just call along? Guess what? I think your equity is probably about 17, 18 percent then. That's not a bad beat. That's bad play allowing you to get beat. So be realistic when you evaluate yourself too. And please feel free to message me any questions if you want to talk. I love talking poker.Dolacio89 said:
"beginner level" is a vague term, it could mean different things to different people, be more specific:
what games are you playing?
how do you think about the game? say preflop, on the flop etc.
do you feel you are having difficulty with certain issues?
Describe where you are at with the game and people can help you in the right direction.

the next step is to drill hands off the tables. There are several sites online that allow you to do this. Why you want to do this is you will see many many situations and will have support for learning the why of taking actions.Dolacio89 said:
