Default Mentoring

Guys or girls, I am new to the site. I've played poker steadily for about 4 years now and all in all i've about 3k+ over my bankroll. I know this isn't a significant raise in bankroll but i've only been playing for money for about the last year since I turned 18.

I have random spells where i play awesome and then others where I play like i'm a newbie.
This annoys me greatly, and makes me play worse for a few days.

I am asking if anybody would like to step forward and mentor me on how to become a long term winning poker player. Its what I want to do with my life and I am hoping to start a challenge of turning 30 dollar into over 1k dollar within a month. But first I would need someone to help me realise what is wrong with my game and help me change it.

I seem to realise what other people do wrong easily, but I can't find a fault with my game but I know there is one or a few there.

Please send me a private message or add my Msn account

I will post it if someone private mails me.

thank you
Aaron

first you need to know if your a winning player for a bankroll. a lossing player just redeposits. its hard when you play multi games, mabe just pick your best one and put in a good month of playing. keeping real good records then see were you stand. as for bankroll cash 20 buyin's is the min i would go within a cash game. i dont play much tourny's but i think i recall iether 50 or 100 buyin's not sure though. do u keep track of your play, if so how many hands have u played ? so with the $30 if u were to play cash tables play 2nl till u get your bankroll up to $100 then play 5nl till u get to $200 ect. always buyin for 100bb. were did u play before online. and always get rakback or some kind of deal for signing up on to a poker site. even stars has some deals. but rakback on tilt is big if u ever get good.

If I read your original post correctly, it took you 4 years to make $3k and now you want to make $1k in 1 month from a $30 deposit. It's not happening, sorry.

If I read your original post wrong, I apologize.

No, i started playing for real money this time last year, from then i made 3k in one tourney, and had small cashes every now and then.

I just want someone to look at my game and tell me the problems with it, that is my main priority at the moment.

The best thing is to post some hands you have played where you aren't sure if you did the right thing at the time. Then the advice will pour in.
