Hi,
I ve been trying to move from tournaments to ring games since a montha ago now but I can t see any result worth of notice. If I stick to a tight aggressive approach i can manage to win some hands (most of the times small pots) but then a bad beat or a following tilt makes me loose all my buyin, more than i could earn in 5/6 hours. While doing some reading i found aces's guide to nl and his advices but i still cannot translate his suggestion of vpip around 13% and pfr 8% into starting hands.
Another thing, do you think I sould start playind nl 25 or 50 to improve my game (bankroll is not an issue at this levels)
Thanks a lot

13% VPIP would be something like AJ+, KQ+ and all pairs, plus some other broadways and suited connectors in late postion. 8% PFR is around AJ+, KQ+, 88+, but again you need to take into account position. You can work these out with Pokerstove (great tool)

Make sure you check out Rentons guides too. Good stuff in there: http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...oker-36037.htm

Its always going to be this way. Just accept that right now your biggest leak is probably that you tilt. Find out why and fix it.

that used to be my biggest problem, I called off too much money with the second best hand. you need to learn pot control and reading your opponent better.

Somewhat off topic, but does aces really suggest playing a 13/8 style?
