Default Re: Help me with a study plan (long and probably boring)???

Just wanted to add a few things.

It looks like your in pretty much the same boat as me as far as books go except I went limit instead of NL. I've got a few others that you don't but you have a few that I don't. FYI, Hold'Em Excellence is written by Lou Krieger (and I didn't find it very helpful although it was the first Hold'Em book I read so I thought it was great at the time).

I think the only book I would add if you want to start playing limit is SSH (small stakes Hold'Em). It's pretty much considered the low limit bible around here and it's written in a very easy to read and systematic format (unlike HPFAP which, although a good book, is a bit clunky to read IMHO.)

As a previous poster said, check out bonuswhores.com to take advantage of bonuses. Go to the bonuswhores101 guide, there you can find what bankroll situation your in and it will take you through how to get the best bonuses for your bankroll step by step. It will also give you lots of other info on bonuses, namely, hourly bonus rates, reload bounuses, casino bonuses, etc...

Also go to rakebackreview.com to learn about rakeback. Make sure that you understand about the rakebacks before you do them. Most sites will subtract your bonus from the rakeback so you end up losing out on some good bonuses if you just sign up for each and every rakeback. I believe that rakebackreview has a list of sites that will allow you to do both rakeback and bonus at the same time.

Also, try to look into getting a HUD for your pokertracker. Something like playerview, gametime+, or pokerace. I've used all 3 of these and right now am trying out pokerace. I find it very good and it's free.

Anyway, just keep studying, playing, and good luck.
