Maybe I'm a little bit less of a beginner than this sub is intended for, but I'm still trying to master ABC poker. I'm really looking to get good enough to play 1/2 live (and eventually 2/5) and earn money at those stakes. However, I do not feel I am good enough yet to do this and do not feel very confident in some areas of my play. I am thinking of picking up a book such as the grinders manual if it would help me improve my play (shot in the dark, but does anyone have an old copy they'd be willing to give away?
I feel as if I'm better than the significant majority of people here at 5nl but sometimes make bad decisions by calling too much or choosing bad spots to bluff off my stack that causes me to be a breakeven or barely winning player at these stakes
I've played 1k hands of 10nl, 10k of 5nl, and 6k of 2nl (currently at 5nl exclusively)
Areas of my game I am not confident in:
1. What to do against 3 bets when I am out of position against people with 8%+ 3 bet percentage
2. I am confortable cbetting, but less comfortable on when to call cbets, and when to check raise them against regs.
3. Uncomfortable defending my blinds
4. Playing against LAGs in general
Does anyone have any advice or resources regarding these?
Also, here are my stats:
