When we get right down to it the formulation of some specific methodology might not be the right answer to the original question. It might come down to simple desire.
If we believe:
1) Beating low stakes poker isnt monumentally hard.
and
2) Most people cant beat low stakes poker.
Then it must follow that the reason most people arent winners at low stakes is that either they dont want to do what it takes to be winners, or they dont want to do what it takes to be winners badly enough.
It sounds really simple and abstract and not very interesting, but it might be the best answer.
We all know all the resources u need are there (we dont need to name them all). The real question is are you willing to put in the blood, tears, and time? If u are eventually youll do well, if youre not, no well formed hypothesis is going to help you.

Desire.
Do you want it badly enough?
Then you might ask yourself: Should you want it badly enough? But thats another thread.
