I want to begin seriously playing online and am looking for advice. I have been playing holdem for four years now in small card rooms and home games in my area. I have read lots of poker literature and consider myself one of the, if not the, best player in my small corner of the universe.
A couple months ago I pissed away $100 on Party Poker playing above my skill level and screwing around basically. I recognize now I need to start at a lower level and take it easy to become a better player.
Read: I am not looking to make a fortune right away. I want to take the route which will better my skills over time and not one which would involve playing 10 tables at small levels to make a nice amount of money. I want to become a BETTER poker player.
What do you all recommend? What site would you start out using etc? I have an account with PP. My buddy just sent me a deal with Pacific Poker which would allow me to deposit $50+ and receive twice that PLUS $50 more. I don't know of any other bonus deals so those would be appreciated as well.
Also, I saw this on Bonus Whores (I went there before coming here but decided to ask you guys).
What is this guy using to get those numbers/percentages?
