I am reaching out hoping someone in this community can help me out.

I have played online poker off and on for the last 10 years. I have never been able to cash out. Despite many efforts to learn the game and become a winning player I always seem to fall on my face. I have read many books, Crushing The Micro Stakes, Killer Poker by the Numbers, The Poker Blue Print, Peak Performance Poker, and Harrington's 6-max online. I have also been a member of Card Runners and I even paid $400 to join the Bestpokercoaching.com Coaching for Profits Program. After joining that program I lost half my BR in 2 months. I reached out there as well and no one had any solid advice. All I hear is "just grind" put in volume. I probably have close to 2k in losses. I have a little over $20 left in my BR and want to be a winning cash game player. I have the time to put in 40+ hours a week however I have no money for coaching. I literally have $60 left in my bank account.

Is there anyone out there willing to help? I am willing to pay a premium for time spent if I become a winning player.

P.S. I can only play on US sites most of my hands are from 2NL on ACR.

Your best bet is probably to post your stats in the relevant forum and get some pointers on what are probably some very obvious leaks.

Hi mate - sounds like you need to get your fundamentals down before looking at coaching etc, i can reccoemend a book written by a former coach of mine called 'The Grinder's Manual' - huge value for you at your current position i am very sure.

After you studied that maybe take a monthly sub at a poker training website - get as much content as you can, practice, refine.

Then get a coach - tell them what you know, what you understand and what confuses you, and they will guide you on your future journey.

Just got the Grinder's Manual. I am going to also watch Carroter's Podcasts and see if that will help. I have to be honest though given the amount of videos and books I have read I am not very optimistic. Bot sure if this is the place but I can document progress here in the form of a blog if that is allowed. Thank you for the suggestions. Hopefully there will be more to come.

First big adjustment.

NO more YOUTUBE during sessions. More time needs to be spent analyzing stats.

Just finished chapter 2.
