All of what you need is on 2p2. You are a cash game specialist. Get out of the beginners forum and go to the live low stakes NL forum. Get involved. People are posting hand histories for review. Start reading them and analyzing them. You will notice a common problem with many of the hand histories the right answer is fold pre which leads us to:
You are prolly making several major mistakes that can easily be fixed.
Playing too many hands (limping trash, calling raises with crap, opening marginal hands oop, etc)
completing the sb with garbage
not understanding the power of position
trying to be too tricky and losing value
this is an overview - I can write dozens of pages. The main point is working on your game takes WORK. Step one is to go through a ton of HH's and understand proper thought process. There are also stickies on the top of the LLSNL forum with an absolute ton of info on how exactly to beat live low steaks NL.
get to work!!
