I thought that 'sex sells' not some little star on your screen.

Seriously, man...Keith's dead on accurate...I started in 2NL at one table then thought I'd try a few more tables, moved to 5NL running 10 tables and took a while to get to 10NL and I crashed because I wasn't paying attention...just autopiloting with horrible playing. I cut it back to 2 tables, started paying attention with my horrible playing and broke into 25NL in almost notime.

I'm still probably playing horribly but my winrate has gone through the roof after I dropped so many tables.

John Doe:


When I came across those videos posted in this thread I went through them twice, followed what that McStakin guy says to a T, and literally overnight went from a losing 2NL player to a winner. Spending the time watching them and studying them is a way better way to spend your time than losing or even breaking even...

Over the last 11,238 hands in the past 4 days I've averaged 12.29 ptbb/100.

I understand variance and that I may just be running good...but its way too much of a coincidence that I just got serious about applying what all of these guys have been saying and then started to win.


Here's a graph of a typical session (x-axis is # of hands played):






These guys know what they are talking about, and those 101 videos are great. Take their advice word for word.

2 more days and I should be rolled for 5NL
