This is my graph back from the day years ago before I quit:
About 30k hands over few months. I did not play every day back then and when I did it was 2 to 4 hours usually. Now I am thinking to put in more volume in. Maybe somewhere around 50k hands a month or so. At least eventually, after I get used to playing on multiple tables and get somewhat comfortable with basic strategy again. The idea is to treat this thing as a whole time job/school project now. Still not sure about resources though. I like learning from books. Not sure whether subscribing to a training site or getting a coach is necessary yet for these limits? I know I have to get ABC fundamentals down for now, which I do not exactly have now. And I feel it should not be difficult to do it from a book? Years back I bought "Crushing the Microstakes" book and was studying pretty much exclusively that. I guess for now I will go back to it. Even tho I am not exactly sure how outdated it is in late 2018 going into 2019, since it was written back in 2011?
