I've only been playing for 2 months now and I want to be profitable. What do I need to monitor my progress in terms of studying my hands, plays, etc. and what would be a good BR to begin with? When should I start worrying about my ROI and what EXACTLY does it mean and stand for? I've made mental mistakes so far and feel like I spent $200 worth of experience. Right now after 2 months my ROI is -32% and my average profit is -.60. I just float on a very small bankroll. Is it a major mistake to deposit only the minimum amount (25) if I truly want to profit? I put too much pressure on my game and tend to start playing too tight if I know I'll have to redeposit if I lose to play another game. I had a problem with being impatient and waiting for the right time to play as well. I have children and when I first began I'd play while they were awake and I split my attention and now I'm learning to be patient because of course I play better focused and I've had my first week of consistent low stakes tourney wins this week at night. I feel things starting to go uphill game wise and I want to be able to do it right this time as I have a new respect for the game.
