What are your thoughts on these? I am currently playing $5 SNGs as well as $25 NL, am trying to move up, but I feel like I am a breakeven player. I am trying to decide if it is worth it to join up with cardrunners or poker school online, has anybody had experiece with either of these? Do you think it is sufficient to read books and post on forums? Thanks

You aren't sure whether you are overall a winner, loser, or break-even? I recommend getting Poker Tracker or Poker Office software. Or, look at your bankroll, subtract any bonus you have received, and that should tell you if you have been profiting.

I, at one time, belonged to Poker School Online. It didn't help my game that much. The play is about like what you'll see at play money tables. However, some of the articles there were awesome. Overall, it wasn't worth the money to me. I learned more by picking up a book, posting to this forum, and most importantly, understanding what others were saying about my play. Of course, the choice is yours, you may get more out of an online poker school than I did. What would it hurt to try it for a month or so?

I am a very very very slight winner over the 3K hands i have tracked, about 4 bb/100 hands, which at the micros seems pretty crappy.
