advice

well as i have said i have some basic poker knowledge but i am looking to improve.. what would i like your advice on?.... well anything and everything basically

bankroll- how to build it from a start, how to manage it, i know i shouldn't risk too much of it but when you are just starting out how do you build it with out risking most of it?

Notes- i know i should make notes bout players, but what exactly should i be noting? what bets players make, from what position, what kinda cards they like to play? suggestions?

Kinda similar to notes, reading players, what to observe and what should i think bout it? how to put together my read on an opponent? not a skill i have right now!! advice and tips most appreciated

game selection- cash/tourny? i only really play nl holdem at moment, level buy in or blinds for cash? advice for playing at these different levels? is a little knowledge a dangerous thing, can i out think myself at this level? should i keep it simple?

online/live: given the convenience online is my preference, played live once at the stanely casino in reading, was a £20 re-buy, lasted to just after the first break, then it all went in pre flop my kq no good against ak when flop n turn brought 3 jacks & a 10 (no ace or 9 for my str8 on river)! also shuffling and dealing yourself, crumbs!

Records- i know i should keep records of my sessions but what exactly do i need to record? any suggestions or guide/templates?

Books- what are good books to read? i have read a poker for beginners book and harrington on holdem volume 1, any suggestions

Odds- any tips on how to work them out/remember them easily and quickly given the short decision times online? i currently dont really use them as i just cant do it in the time

hope to get your comments soon
