I think dale hit just about everything you need as far as starting hands and such except with small pocket pairs, ill call up to 5 or 6 BB's or even more if im closing off the betting.
What else you need to do is not be shy to post up as many hand histories as you need help with. Any time you're playing a game and you make a big fold or a big call or had a really tough decision, go ahead and post it up here.

Keep putting in the hours because the biggest help is just gaining experience. Eventually you will get a better idea of when someone is married to a weak hand, trying to push you out, or really does have a strong hand. Knowing when to value bet the river, when to check/call and when to check/fold is a skill that will increase your win rate as well. If you hit TPTK against a loose calling station, you can usually value bet the hell out of them on a safe board. If you hit the same hand against a big bluffer its better to check and call the river.

Overall, you just want to keep your stack even or above from the occassional steal and showdown with TPTKish type hands until you can hit that one monster and destack someone.

Dont worry about table image. If you just play tight and camp for premium hands, you'll get them paid off plenty.


I know I've been kinda vague but I gotta get goin so if you have any other questions, don't be afraid to ask.
