Best tip i could give anyone. If you're going to enter a pot, raise. If your hand isn't strong enough to raise with, don't play with it. The only obvious exception to this is when you're the big blind with a poor hand that you wouldn't normally play, but it costs you nothing to check and see the flop.

Get into the habit of planning the entire hand from the get go. Before you bet, think about what you plan to do if you are raised.

work as hard on your game away from the table as you do on it.
follow brm.

btw, you might want to obscure your sn if you want to keep it private.

nice garph so far, you obviously have some understanding, but it is only a very small sample so don;t get carried away.
