Ok quick history: I was a loosing player a couple of years ago online when i lived in the U.K. (I was a compleate fish !!!) now i live in california, I have been playing live games mainly $1 $2 nl and $2 $3nl

I have read and seriously studied no limit hold em theory and practice by david skylanski (i mean every day for months)

I should keep a log but have not ! but i am sure i am a winning player, a note aside im good at reading these playersx at low limits i have a really good grasp of multi level thinking even though i dont have to go so deep with these "soft players"

I really struggle to read alot of the online thoery posts cus i cant figure out what all the abbreviations are! is there a thread which sais - nl = no limit ect..... so i guess thats my first question

my second question is what softwhere do i need ? poker tracker ?!?!

my last question which sites are available to the u.s. and how do you pay and cash out !?!? after i just wrote this i realize perhaps i should have posted it in the beginners section and if i can work out how to do so i will move it !?!?!?! any help would be greatly appreciated !!!!

Learn to play multiple games.

If you can't crush NL cash games online (like I don't!), learning other games can help you win money. I will cheerfully play NL tournaments since it's a different strategy and seem to do well, but in cash games, stud games, omaha, draw, thats where the easiest money is. You get a lot of people wandering away from NL and are happy to lose money at a game they don't quite understand.

Practice really good bankroll management, too. If you are going to play NL, whatever the max buy in is, you need to have at least 20 buy ins for that, maybe 40. So, if you decide to play 25/50c NL, you should have 1000-2000 online.

Since you play live, start with 1 table and do that for a while considering how you are so used to games going so slow. And since it goes so much faster, you are going to see upswings and downswings, and bad beats faster. Online poker doesn't screw you over worse than online as many of your live counter-parts say. Since hands are dealt 2-4 times faster you see 2-4x as many beats and other crap.

This is good. I built my bankroll by smashing micro razz donks, and now I play micro PLO and micro HORSE with great winrates in comparison to NLHE.
