im just starting to get into 2nl 6max, and i would like any help anyone can give me, bet sizing, pot odds, hand ranges ANYTHINGG.
Would live to get into playing it more seriously and start to build an actual bankroll rather than depositing over and over, don't get me wrong i love poker and i love it for the enjoyment, but it would be nice to build an actual bankroll, so yeah any advice welcome

Honestly without posting an essay on poker to help you, the best thing to do would be to read Dan Harrington's cash game books, they are for full ring, but they give you the much needed information for starting out. Also this youtuber helped me out alot https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cuLXs5SVoU

Check out Gripsed video's, really good.

as for those of you who want tips, heres my general gameplan.
UTG: 99+, AJo+, ATs+, KQs, *77-88, Ato
MP: 99+, ATo+, ATs+, KQs+, *77-88, QJs-KJs
CO: 66+, ATo+, A8s+, suited broadway, KQo, *KTo-KJo, QJo
Btn: CO range, + all PP, all sc's 67+, all one gappers 68+ *any two if blinds f2steal>80%
SB: 66+, ATo+, A9s+, QJs/o+, *any two if BB f2steal>70%
BB: purely dependent on who raised. UTG range basically vs anyone other than Btn, SB. Btn range vs anyone else.

*play if table is passive. i tend to go by whether the people left to act have a 3b stat of less than 8%=passive.

obv this is super broad and changes on table dynamic but its a solid guidline to follow when 12-24 tabling

never call 3bs unless ESS makes sense to do so. no set mining. basically never playing out of blinds unless im 3bing. big emphasis on looking for mass multitabling nits who i can 3b light, and 3bing as light as KJs vs the typical fishtard population for value.

as for 3bing;
IP:
- AA: 4b v nit, flat 3b vs lagtard
- KK: same as AA
- QQ: flat 3b, adjust based on texture post
- JJ: same as QQ
- TT: 4b shove vs guys with a bigger 3b range than 8.5%, 4b/fold vs guys with lower than 8.5%
- AK: 4b/6b vs guys with a bigger 3b range than 3%, 4b/fold vs guys with lower than 3%

OOP:
- AA: 3b/5b shove
- KK: same as AA
- QQ: 3b/flat 4b, shove non AK flop
- JJ: 3b/fold
- TT: 3b/fold
-AK: 3b/fold

How are you not opening small PP in other positions other than the button? ^
Plus we can play out of the blinds without 3 betting quite comfortably. 4 bet folding TT is bad. We shouldnt be 4 betting AK against a 3% 3 bettor.

this is JC's post i copied and pasted.....and here's his explanation why he doesnt play small pp's

when i table is passive i go to 77+ all pos, 22+ CO, Btn, BB.
reasons for this;
1. holdem manager telling me im leaking $$ 22-66 EP and MP (note: i dont cold call these ever) maybe i was calling 3bets, i dunno.
2. its sooooooooo hard to get money in with a set OOP, and the ones thatll pay me are just so passive
3. people call such a wide range that say i open 44 from EP, im always getting 1-2 callers, board comes 58Q rainbow, whats my move? they station that hard that its hard to continue unless i flop all unders/1 over.

2/ its really simple to get a set in OOP, lead all streets and get paid.
3/ UTG isnt same as HJ, and its completely ok range v range to c/f boards
