Well have you made a deceision on the level you intend to make you try at first? That's like a have to know before your first question can be answered. I have a question that I would like an honest answer to. Do to believe you can go in new and be a winning player without any experience at a poker table? Do you know the basic
hands of poker now? What did you mean about winning more by playing tight to start with? In my opinion, you should make a plan of what you need to learn to reach a short term goal of knowing the answer to your own question, like asking some more questions on this subject, and take the advice and opinions to 2nl cash, if cash is what you want to try first, and play with only what you have been told, and stay focused on only playing tight, and if you lose a $2 buyin, leave and start over asking questions, and telling those giving the advice what you think is good with your play, and what you think is bad about it. Tell a short about what happen that caused you to lose your $2 buyin playing tight only.
You may think I'm joking or just being an ass, but I can't sugar coat, and give you some positive and let you think you can win a penny without the know how you get with study time off and on the tables. And that starting plan I gave you a starting point, which is a hard thing pick alone, can be your's if you want it, but starting points can be made up of just about anything because the whole idea is to get you started learning by asking questions for the advice you need to know that will answer your own questions in your mind. That's what sticks and you use what works for you over and over. And that's the first part of your game made up of skills, learned by you, excepted as good by you, and nothing like another player's.
Learning the game can't be done in a short time. It's a long term, even never ending, have to do if you want to be a winning player during your playing experience. So this is the time to make up your mind what you will do.
