Hi everyone
I've been reading a lot of the posts here and can see how knowledgeable you all are so would like a bit of advice please.
I've only been playing online poker since the beginning of June. I never played live or online before but did read a couple of books and lots of articles on poker sites before I started. I'm still reading all the time and looking over my hand histories etc, trying to understand what's happening. It's all very new to me.
I've been playing 4NL FR beginners tables and lost for the first couple of days then started winning a little, lost more etc etc. At the end of 9 days I've played 1800 hands and am up about $6.
But it's all so slow. Those 1800 hands have taken me over 41 hours playing at one table. I've been trying to play fewer hands (TAG style) but I've just downloaded PT3 and discovered that my VPIP /PFR is 42/7.
My main question is - should I just continue working on narrowing my starting hands (practising using the fold button!) or might it be better for me to try playing more tables at once so that I have more playable hands and can get more experience by playing more hands per hour?
Thanks!
