Well guys I came across some poker training videos on youtube I found pretty helpful. Gripsed seems to be the best info i've come across lately. I have learned quite a bit, my biggest problem seems to be my tournament poker style just doesnt adapt well to the live settings i play in, the tourneys are 5-7 tables, more like a SNG, and the cash games well, I had trouble adjusting before.
I learned exactly why I'm getting stacked, buying in short is putting me in bad situations. I recently picked up a 2nd job only for obtaining a poker bankroll again. I had about 4k a few years ago and an ex wiped it out by not paying the electric for 6 months and not telling me, on top of a new clutch I was broke and never recovered, and just cant seem to ever find myself in a spot to get ahead. After finally rebuilding my life I think it's time to start grinding again.
Blah off topic, but what do ya think of gripsed? He seems to know what he is talking about and i've already improved quite a few leaks in my game, and learned why I was running into such high variance in the cash games (A bunch of NIT's, LAG and TAG players) and I was playing them too general, not differentiating them.
I would suggest the videos for anyone who has read a few books, has a basic understanding of the game and is serious about trying to making a run at it
