This isn't a guide but a question. I'm a fairly regular, active member albeit new one and really want to squeeze the best out of this great forum so want to know what other CCers have found to be the most valuable aspects of it. I have loads of questions since joining and never failed to get an answer or at the least spark a healthy debate but what I want to know is what is the single most important part of this forum...what one thing (or many things) have improved your game. I want to start posting hands for analysis since I believe that will be useful but don't really know where to start...so, I'm reaching out to the community, share your expereince here and HELP ME!!!

Have you checked out the golden archives? Lots of thought provoking, eyeopening discussions are saved there.

Definately the hand analysis section. Just post hands you aren't sure about how you played or read through other peoples posts and offer an opinion or read others opinions.

I hang around in the chat thread alot but thats mainly for funsies.

The new cash game thread in the strategy section looks good if you play cash, try looking at that. It looks like it could be a regular thing.

you may find some useful info from here. just get involve, try to get 25 posts, as you could play the buyin tourney with $ added once you reach 25.

As suggested by kcanuck, the Golden Archives are a must visit. Also check out the Strategy Articles tab if you haven't had an opp yet. One of the most valuable tools that I use (a lot) is the 'Search' option (located nxt to the 'Log Out' option) so that I can locate specific topics (or threads/posts of some of the members that I think have contributed invaluable info so I want to see what else they've keyboarded).

-Hand Analysis
-Meet people who's game doesn't suck and talking with them on AIM too much.
-Reading some articles & links to "other resources".
