I would suggest against that. The top guys like Galfond, Cates, Sulsy are not playing full ring game low limit NL. Most of the time they are playing 6max, heads up, or mixed games with stats display of their opponents. These things are not applicable at live full ring games
Well no, I wasn't talking about strategy. I meant he needs to read stories on how guys that were on top of the world in the past have fallen on hard times. Even a lot of the very best pros of the past aren't doing well right now.
It takes a person with a unique set of character traits to succeed in poker. A lot of players (like Lindgren) that have some of those traits often have other traits that contribute to their demise, like compulsive gambling. Just because someone can play the game well doesn't mean they're suited to make it a career.

I think Pete understands what I hope to accomplish. Start of on the 1/3 NL at Harrahs, build a bankroll. Move to 2/5 after I get like 40-50k maybe. Then build it some more, and maybe stay there for a while and then head to 5/10 wayyyy down the road. NL is my game. I'm not interested in anything else.
