The things I have noticed that most low limit players do to hurt profits.
1) Not taking advantage of promotions, for example UB Saturday tournaments if you final table any of the 15 guarenteed tournaments you get a free buyin to their Sunday Major. You can unregister, which i recommend, and get 215 tournament dollars.
2) Playing on Full Tilt! Full Tilt 50NL is the toughest on the internet. If you are just learning the game then I suggest one of the smaller sites with much softer games but NOT absolute poker! Still don't trust them.
3) Not paying attention to timing tells or to the players tendencys. You can watch tv while you play if you want to lose reads and the ability to make a very tough situation not so hard.
4) Playing No Limit Holdem and only that. Poker is such a wide game and their are sooo many weak players in the other games, especially mixed games. I suggest learning Razz, Omaha 8/B, and Stud H/L, then you can play H.O.R.S.E and it is a very profitable game if you know how to play all of them.
5) Not watching old videos. ActionJeffs old MTT videos are very informative still even though they are old. Adanthar's new videos are amazing and I suggest watching all of them and actually listening and studying what he says. He speaks very clearly and expresses a lot of concepts many low limit players can learn quickly!
Just trying to help you guys out. BTW I have final tabled a tournament ever Saturday for UB so right now I have about 1k in tournament dollars which I use to buy into the events and now every final table I make I can play in the 200k and still have plenty of left over tournament dollars to withstand variance and never have to buyin with actual cash for these $5, $10, & $20 tournaments.
