Hi, I've been playing poker for about 4 months but I took a break for a month. I came back about a week or two ago, and I know overall i'm a terrible player, and can't beat 2NL. I want to improve, what are some top tips for me to improve as a player and beat these stakes so I can build my roll?

Don't even bother with 2NL imo - just get a job and put $1,000 on the site. Max your rewards when you first deposit.

The easiest place to win is in a casino. The 1/2NL players are extremely bad. The problem is you need a bankroll.

If you really want to beat 2NL - i'd probably start by not bluffing as much and valuing thinner. Players at NL2 just don't fold much. I'd personally just skip that level and go right to NL50 but that's me. You are wasting your time and not learning much because the players you play are absolute trash any ways.

If you got a job and worked hard for 2 weeks you should have $1,000 - just put it all on a site and start grinding. If that isn't an option and you really must play 2NL - just start by opening a tighter range and take advantage of your button.

I do have a job. I get like 100 dollars a week. It's only part time so. I feel like I wanna start at the bottom and climb the ladder, and lean to beat each level before moving on. I feel like been able to beat all stakes it will make me a more overall better and more flexible player. Thanks for the tips
