I started playing on partypoker maybe like 2-3 years ago and put in an initial deposit of £7. I was a beginner and kept learning and i played through missions and bonuses and got my bankroll up to £100 about 2 years ago. 2 years later and now, my bankroll is currently £103.61. -____-

My game has improved hugely since when i somehow made it up to 100 from 7. And inbetween the last 2 years i managed to get my bankroll to £200 and £60 but still i remain at £100. I AM STUCK AT £100 AND DONT NOW WHAT TO DO. I play used to play $5 NLHE fastforward and recently i got a HUD but the free trial ended so i stopped playing that. For the last 2 months i have been playing $2 6 max sng turbos and double or nothings but cant get further than £120 and keep losing in bad beats/5050s so i keep playing as well as i can (which is better than the majority of players at that level) but never make a profit. Maybe a reason is that partypoker only has like 3 tables starting at any given time.

So i cant play $5 cash games/fastforward (because i multitale with about 4-6 tables so need a hud, i cant make a profit from sngs because its hard putting in the hands because partypoker doesnt get many tables going fast enough but particularly THE VARIANCE that 6 max sngs have.

So what should i start playing? MTTs or something? Or should i join a new site? i have no idea please help

Thank you :)

You must start playing MTT-s with about 2$ and get to the final table and also try pokerstars. On pokertsras you have many tournaments every minute :)

Some MTTs can last up to 12 hours, so for me way too long. If playing MTTs then prefer small MTTs or turbos and cash as part of the group John posted

Try playing on PokerStars. I made my first deposit about a month ago which was 24$ and now i am around 170$. I am playing mostly 5NL cash now. Try the free Jivaro HUD which provides you with information about your opponents VPIP, PFR and AF. You dont have other stats on your HUD cause its a free version but they are more than enough for you to beat those limits. Bad beats do happen but with the proper BR managment they arent going to effect you that much. Honestly, if you think about those hands afterwards you might see that there was something you could do to prevent them, so with that new piece of information you can narrow those BB as much as possible.

Two years to make 103 dollars that seems like insanity
