Actually playing - getting reps in online

If I were you, no matter what your goals are, I would start playing online at one of the sites, doesn’t really matter which one at the lowest buy ins possible ($2), so you can get lots of hands in and start analyzing your hands. You can save hands and we can discuss them and break them down, or post them on 2+2 so players can review them and help you learn. Your goal shouldn’t be to win money, but to learn ($ amount won’t reflect how well you’re playing until you have a really big sample of hands, like around 100k hands played). You should expect to lose at first.

PokerTracking software: you basically need this if you want to improve. It tracks all your hands/winnings/losses in a database. I use poker tracker and they have a free 1 month trial
