Thank you very much Kalupso and Dddogkillah. I will do.
Regarding hand ranges, would you guys recommend the book "How to read hands at no-limit holdem"? If not, what books/videos would be best suited in this topic? Thank you, gentlemen :)

This is gold. Thank you very much for this advice. Would you mind sharing how you got started in studying ranges? And also, what do you mean by preflop strategy? Thank you :)

Thank you for this advice. I was hesitant on subscribing. Just wasn't sure if I will get answers to my questions. But with what you have said, I am sold.

Thank you for your confidence in me. Still, given my skill level, it is hard to believe that I built my bankroll playing with the casino regulars.

What I mean to say is, I only continue playing if the call is +EV. According to the books that I have read, a +EV call is when your equity in the hand is greater than your pot equity. When it comes to draws and it is not a +EV call to continue, I don't continue with gut shots, and I play OESD or Flush Draws when I have good implied odds.

Hello. I have been playing poker for about 3 months now and I am ready to get more serious about learning more about the game. In the past 3 months of playing, I have read and learned about the mathematics basics of poker like pot odds, counting outs, and equity on the turn and river and +EV calls.
With this knowledge alone, I turned my starting $10 into roughly $300 playing live poker at $0.50/$1.00 (converted from 20/40 Philippine Pesos) I can honestly say that it was all luck on my part. I think that with proper strategy and deeper knowledge of poker, I could have played better and won more money. But earning more money is not on the top of my list right now. I genuinely would like to start studying poker diligently as I would like to improve and be a well-rounded player.
Books that I have read:
1.) Poker Math that Matters
2.) Essential Poker Math
Any advice on how and where I should start? Thank you very much.
Aamadeo, Ddogkillah and Kalupso, thank you very much! This is a lot of information and I think it will keep me occupied for a while. I will start studying now and hope to gain a deeper understanding of poker. You have helped me tremendously because I was stuck on where to start. All the best, gentlemen. Cheers :)
