Live player taking the leap
hi firstly I want to introduce myself as a old member first time posting
my name is Paul I'm 29 and located in the UK, been playing poker recreationally for about 2 years started at a pub league after being pretty dominant there and reaching national finals on various occasions(finished 5th in the nationals from 300 runners) I decided to move onto the casinos, re occurring tournaments mainly apart from a 2 day even one casino ran once which I finished 2nd to over 400 runners which was a good result seeing as it was probably my fourth time playing in a casino and in my first year of poker.
Over the 2 years of playing live I've had around 5-6k in earnings some are on my Hendon mob some aren't but I'm pretty pleased with my results and defiantly in decent profit.
As far as playing online I have dabbled in the past never anything serious mainly out of boredom and having a spare couple of hours here and there. Now I have decided to knuckle down and study the online game and try to start grinding 4-5 hours a day. First and foremost I am not starting this for the money I'm a sucker for a challenge and wanting to master something, if I can build a good bankroll then happy days but that is not the purpose of me playing online.
so to the point I'm looking for some pointers in the direction of where to start studying the online game I have a fairly good knowledge of poker but being a live player there's a lot of things I don't know about online poker I have browsed a few videos and sites and there's so much shit out there that you don't know who is a real player sharing his/her knowledge or weather there a coach bum looking for a YouTube partnership
also I don't have a HUD yet so some advice on that would be great also, if I've missed any details
Thanks for reading and I look forward to being an active member(I will start a thread of my online journey as soon as I get started)
