To succeed at that, you have to LOVE the off tables grind. It’s fine if you want to make a solid living at 200nl/soft mistakes games with good table selection and chill/travel in CR, you’re definitely talented enough for that, I just think you need to be honest with yourself about your goals and expectations.
Thanks for watching the vids. I see your point. At the moment I am studying mainly reviewing hands in solver + looking for heuristics but also doing hand reviews with other guys.
The real problem for me is volume I think, I mean my winrate at 500nl is quite bad 1bb/100 post rb over 50k hands but it's a small sample and I think I've improved. I just need to put volume in at high hourly fields like 200rnc and 500nl and hopefully grow my bankroll and continue to invest in coaching/studying.
FWIW I had never played serious hours on a public site until mid February of this year. Only played app games, since then made like 20k and have good winrate at midstakes so I really think I just need to focus on volume on the grind, but I reassess my game constantly and try to make sure I am doing my most. I can try and talk more abt how I'm studying etc. I'm very young so my goals are quite high

I use to do 3 tables and I actually dropped down to 2 now because I felt I still wasn't opening enough and it makes a big difference in terms of thought process and how you play hands. If you crushing it and can auto pilot 80-90% of most cases then yeah 4 tabling zoom be profitable but if you working on improving your game then 4 tables isnt the way to go.
Honestly,
A: I assume you are deleting hands to be running > 120 buyins above EV so I take your wr with a grain of salt and
B: The RNC regs are generally mindless compared to reg table players, there are exceptions but most are nits and very bad rakeback grinders. Most of the smart guys play reg tables, and I have a high WR on them, I just wanted to play RNC to try and max out hourly and work on my game v nits
