Strategy to learn

I believe something that some people miss is picking one game and sticking with it until you're profitable.

So, cash games or tournaments?
Holdem or Omaha?
6-max or big table?

All of these variations require some change in strategy and extra thought.

Also, I would recommend getting some hand analysis software. Once you've got 40k hands or so, run some reports and look at where you might have leaks. Ask yourself questions about the trends the data shows.
Do I defend the BB enough?
Do I play position Properly?
Do I fold from C-bets too often?
Do I overbet the flop?
Do I underbet the flop?
etc.

One final thought. Bankroll management. Many people put this off until they are a 'winning player' or 'have more experience' This is crucial especially when youre' trying to improve your game. You need to know how you're doing, and when you should advance or retard your progress.

I've played poker on/off for many years but I have been a losing player. This time I'm trying to chance that and need some input to my learning strategy.

1. Read about poker (blogs, guides etc.)
2. Watch hand analysis from similar stakes I'm playing
3. Grind micro stakes without trying to be tricky
4. Pick some big/interesting hands from my games and analyze first by myself and then with my friends who actually know how to play.

Anything to add?
