Poker schedule
Hi everyone,
I just joined RunItOnce and I am currently trying to create a poker schedule/study plan to follow for at least the next few months. However, I'm unsure what the best way to move forward is and how I should be allocating my time.
About me: I started playing 2.5 years ago and have built my bankroll to about $8,000 now. I've mostly played 6-max and FR NLHE, both live and online. My win rates at the stakes I've played this past year on Bovada are below:
0.50/1.00 FR: 18.12 EV bb/100, 3,918 hands
0.25/0.50 FR: 9.86 EV bb/100, 9,201 hands
0.10/0.25 FR: 19.20 EV bb/100, 3,918 hands
0.50/1.00 6-max: 2.59 EV bb/100, 14,232 hands
0.25/0.50 6-max: 1.75 EV bb/100, 59,862 hands
0.10/0.25 6-max: 11.21 EV bb/100, 34,855 hands
I do not plan on ever playing professionally, but poker has become my biggest hobby and I'm eager to continue moving up in stakes and building my bankroll. During weekdays, I can only dedicate about 2 hours to poker. On the weekends, I can spend most of the day playing.
In general, I feel like I have not been as diligent as I should have been about studying my game, so I'm now trying to figure out how to best structure the time I spend on poker. I had two specific questions:
1. Should I be trying to learn a new game type? Or should I continue focusing on 6-max/FR? I've dabbled in MTTs, HU NLHE, and PLO. I've had success in MTTs but I usually can't play them any day but Saturday because of the time commitment. However, I could drive to Foxwoods and play live tournaments more often if I built the bankroll for it. I started playing HU NLHE last month and had a massive upswing followed by an almost equally large downswing so I'm currently taking a break from it. PLO I've only played sporadically and my progress has been difficult to track since I only have Hold'em, not Omaha manager.
2. What % of my time should I be spending doing study-related things like watching videos, hand analysis, etc.? Should I continue focusing on playing and building my bankroll until I run into more difficult stakes? Or will it be more beneficial for me at this stage to start spending more study time now?
If anyone could offer any insights or advice, I would greatly appreciate it!
