Need Help!
Hey guys,
I really need help with my NL5 stats.
I've played over 5000 hands, all of them at NL5 and actually I'm at -24$.
One day I make a decent profit by good run, good opportunities, successful bluffs and sometimes big luck. And another day I'm facing lot of bad beats, my decisions are poor and my bluffs won't pass. Sometimes I'm just break even but in the end I'm in minus. I really think I'm not a bad player, I'm just sometimes really tricky and fancy, overbeting hands that are not nuts and getting really pointless bad beats by Ukraine fishes.
I'd like to ask; is that normal? Is it downswing? Am I just bad? Do I need more studying? Should I just play and look at stats after more games?
I'm really not tilted by that, but I love this game and I seriously want to be successful at my limits. Thanks for help.

post hands u play and we will figure out what u can do better...
"...overbeting hands that are not nuts..." this sentence worries me a bit, maybe u need a bit more practice/experience in the game aswell. watch videos and post hands :)
5k hands is virtually nothing.
You probably try to immitate Isildur. Be humble, play more hands, think about your value to bluff ratio when you overbluff.
Hi GoldenAce,
Alot of questions here!
A few tips from me:
1) Decide how much time per week to allocate to poker. In the beginning I would allocate at least 50% of your time to studying the game.
2) Try to play short focussed sessions
3) Use this site to network with other players, ask questions and get feedbakc
4) Try not to be too attached to the money. Only play with money you can afford to lose to avoid being emotionally effected by the inevitable swings of online poker.
Best of luck at the tables
If you are an essential member be sure to check out my videos perhaps they will help!
