Just signed up after thinking about it for far too long!

 

I started off playing SNGs/MTTs years ago and then moved over to cash. Recently I've not been playing much at all apart from a weekly live tournament that gets about 14-18 players and is over in about 4 hours.  I read “Kill Everyone” a few months ago (although I could do with a re-read) and have tried to base my strategy around that. I have the poker fever again so I'm hoping to get back into online tournaments and maybe live as well if I can get a bankroll together!

 

I have about $350 in my Pokerstars account so my first goal is to build that up a bit. Any advice on videos I should watch or articles I should read? Also any recommendations for which site, tournaments and stakes I should be playing (I'm in the UK so can play anywhere but I'd like a site compatible with PokerTracker 4)?

 

Cheers cool

welcome!!  Being stuck in the US< I cant give you much advice on sites to play on.  Video wise though, check out Dary' Jaces video on How To Become a Better Poker Player as a good start!

Thanks Killingbird, checked out the video and it's definitely a good one for getting into the right mindset.

 

I'm going to start playing the $1 90-man turbos on stars and see how I do. I played a set of 10 today (4-tabling) and final tabled 2 of them for break-even. It looks like the biggest area I need to look at in my game is short stacked shoving and calling ranges (as that seems to be 90% of the play in these things!)

 

I'm planning to watch the MTT Maths, Shallow Stack Play and Shortstack Bootcamp theory videos and then look back over my hands and see how I'm doing.

 

Any other resources or videos you would recommend for these micro-stakes turbos?
