It's harder to be a money player I only play micro and free roll tournaments?

Fold pre. Then fold some more. At micro stakes, don't bother bluffing, and stealing fold equity either doesn't work against these players, or I just don't know how to use it.

Discipline discipline and discipline. Build your bankroll step by step.

People at micros are calling stations with pretty much any pair or better. Having a good preflop strategy will help you a lot so you don't end up in weird places postflop. I suggest give a try to cash games, some like them others don't and you can't know your opinion without finding it out.

Hey Mate!

Cash is a great way to make some steady money, you just need to study to know what you're doing. As you're doing that, take some small money from your regular job $20-50 and start in small stakes.

Here's a video playlist which will help with thinking about the game the right way http://gripsed.com/win

and there's also a great 30 day course here on cardschat that's free. You can find it int he learning poker section!

Study and play. Review your hands. Learn discipline. All about time and effort. Even a bad player can become break even or better with a basic knowledge and discipline at micro stakes. Many great learning tools out there, many are free. Be humble and start with the absolute basics. Learn what makes cash game poker different and focus your study accordingly. Also learn how to beat your stake/level, don't play the incorrect game for your stake, ie fancy play syndrome.

it's a different format that you have to learn. you have to watch strategic videos and be inspired by them for your game. personally I do not play on cahs games and I prefer to continue to play on MTT because I make more profits and I suffer less loss on this format.

 

[andrezito38]

also play micros and frees, I think we have to try to build a bankroll even if slowly.
but mainly trying to learn poker without worrying so much, it is our place of preparation for the future.

Thanks to all the advice people have posted so far! I'm still only playing freeroll tournaments but I'd love to start playing cash games too!

Patience is the keyword

You need to have patience to make any winning. At micro stakes tables other players easily call small bets, so bluffing won't always work. When you bet try minimal 1/2 bets when you have a good hand+flop.

The most time when i make any profit is when other players make stupid fouls like they go all in when they have a straight while i have a flush with an ace. That are the best calls for me.:icon_sant

Learn about the game first. Play at low/microstakes as you do. Read "The Bankroll Builder" and the "The Grinder's Manual" for cash-game strategy at those limits. Practice disciplined bankroll management. A few dollars doesn't seem like a lot, but it's all relative to the size of your bankroll. Also, another great book, "Treat Your Poker like a Business" is pretty solid too. Jared Tindler's "The Mental Game of Poker" is absolutely essential for the cash game grinder. Jonathan Little has a bunch of great content on YouTube aimed at low stakes games as well. I could go on and on but a simple google search "how to be good at no limit cash games" will get you a ton of results to help get you started.

Start at the lowest level, always play your best and raise your bankroll to gradually increase your level and adapt to the field that will become increasingly difficult.

To become a cash player you keep playing cash game. Grind those micro stakes and move up in stakes. It’s taking me awhile to move up but each time I fall I learn something so keep your disciple.

top pair and a flush draw all in

Good day!
There is a lot of training material on the Internet to become anyone!
Go ahead, everything is in your power!
There are a lot of weak players playing at micro stakes (where you will most likely start playing) and with due diligence you will succeed!

 

[Haze777s]

Most likely on the contrary, the cache player can easily go to tournaments, it is much more difficult to go to the cache from tournaments

 

[frnandoh]

The bigger tip for poker is: search for worse players and be disciplined.

 

[Vilgeoforc]

You need to learn, friend. Find a good tutorial on cash games and try to understand the essence. If you are disciplined and follow bankroll management, then you will beat NL2 by playing the basics.

First of all dont ever drink alcohol while playing.
You can leave while on a winning streak too, not just when felted.
You have to move on to the next hand immediately
Learn to let the last hand go. move on
Someone is re raising you fold....your beat
Play at as high of steaks as you can afford, play on the weekend when busy, with drunks, tourists, amateurs ect...
Have patients and discipline, its a grind for a reason

Unfortunately, I hasten to disappoint you! The game of cash is much more difficult than MTT! Playing in the cache will have to make very difficult decisions in 100BB stacks so you will have to learn a lot for a successful game!

Becoming a cash player is simple, because you can come, and go when you want, and if you get up try not to lose it back.
