Pretty shitty day today lol. I lost my Oakleys somewhere and Im super pissed about it. I also had to make a massive withdrawl from the BR which sucks dick too. Right now my BR is a huge $70. Fucking books are rediculous at school and its sucks that I need to get so many of them. Even used there still not that cheap. Anyways I need some help LP.

As you guys may or may not know Im a LHE player. I would rather slit my wrists then play any LHE game lower then .25/.5 because anything lower then that is a shit show with 90% players to the flop. So Im in a situation here. I need to make some money off poker but Im not really rolled for shit. I also have a bonus Im just over half way through clearing. Ive been looking at the options and considering a few things... Im wondering what your opinions are guys so help a bro out:

1. Play SNGs - Ive been considering playing SNGs. What do you guys think is more profitable 6 max or FR?

2. HU SNGs - I reaaalllly want to become good at HU. If I could choose a game to be good at I would want to be a NLHE + PLO HU specialist. Problem with this is Ive played mainly LHE for the last 4-6 months. Is playing HU SNGs with my small roll a bad call?

3. NLHE Cash - Yeeeeaaaa. Like ive said Ive been a LHE player for a while now. I used to play NLHE but just played better at LHE so I stuck with it. I know NLHE is where the money is at but right now Id be playing $2 NLHE lol.... but maybe its a good call?

4. Stick with LHE - This is still an option but maybe its time for a switch?

Hearing everyones opijion would really help me out right now. If you hav ea story or was in my situation a while ago I would love to hear what you did and why you decided this. Help me out guys.

option 5) get a loan from a poker player with some interest or smth

option 6) staking deal

btw Excelled, have you checked prices on amazon used textbooks, ebay used textbooks, as well as foreign pupblications? I remember friends getting textbooks for $15 on amazon used sometimes when teh original price was $100. ALso, weird India versions and whatnot were identical yet like 1/3 the price.

i play limit 1/2

just stick to limit, adapt and fucking crush them
you should have super high bb/100 if u adapt accordingly

and u meet that same type of cdonk see every shdown player there that u will thru all levels of limit (altho much less in frequency)
