1. Read the ebook twice - a bit excessive; once should do fine. Take notes on what you feel is important. You must understand that the game has changed dramatically since the release of the ebook and whilst it is still an incredibly useful resource, you shouldn't try to follow the strategy exactly. 

2. watch all free vids for HUSNG Hypers - agreed.

3. Go on the tables - the most important one yet; do this at least 75% of the time at first so you understand the games.

4. Starts with 1,50€ HUSNGs and look how it works - agreed.

5. Move up with 50BI, move down with 30BI - agreed; can take a slightly bigger risk at that level but it's smart to watch your BR.

​6. Watch the following premium vids:

         a.) Chadders0 hyper turbo video pack - THIS is what you should watch twice.

​         b.) zZz Tilt & phl500 hyper turbo pack - this is slightly advanced for the $1.50s; I would wait a while and maybe watch when you reach the $7s or $15s. 

         c.) zZz Tilt hyper turbo beating regs pack  - absolutely no need to watch this until you are at least at the $15s; this pack is outstanding but will blow your mind whilst you're playing the $1.50s and you are going to encounter zero regs there. Don't watch this just yet, it will just confuse you.

7. read the following books:

         a.) The Mental Game of Poker - probably the most influential resource in my poker career. Use it interactively and take notes. 

         b.) Heads Up No Limit Holdem I & II ( Will Tipton) - see my point re: zZz reg pack. Way too soon and far, far too complicated to be useful at this stage of your career.

8. posting hands in the forum - Agree 1,000 times over.

Try not to flood your brain with too much information; too much water spoils the plant. If you watch everything and read everything at once, nothing will go in and it will be a waste of time - take it from a guy who did exactly the same thing and wasted countless hours. Watch Chadders' vid pack and play 1,000 games or so at the $1.50s, then starting mixing everything else in bit by bit and you will begin to learn. You'd actually benefit from reading the Mental Game of Poker 2 first; it details how we learn and the art of doing so efficiently. 

Also; as pointed out by some other forum regulars, there is no reason to post graph after graph. Share graphs after each 500-1,000 games or so, not after 50/60 as the sample size will be pointless and will put people off your thread. You are far better off posting hands as you suggested.

Do not expect results right away; getting good takes time, lots of it, especially in today's market. Concentrate on getting a feel for the game and then start working on the advanced stuff.

Good luck.

Thanks for the feedback fellas; always glad to help a player who is just starting out - I made a lot of mistakes when I started playing HUSNGs and with no poker friends was left to my own devices. Hopefully, Defchef, you will now progress more quickly than I was able to.

Regarding the changing game; despite each player starting with just 25 big blinds, there is an incredible amount of strategy to hypers. The strategy in Mersenneary's ebook was geared towards the most popular and indeed optimal style at that time - hyper aggressive with an extremely wide min-raising range. A lot of players now find a slightly less aggressive style with a wider limping range to be more successful. The game changes all the time and you will need to adapt and make changes yourself or you will get left behind. As I mentioned; the ebook is a truly excellent resource and is most of the strategy is still relevant... Just be aware that not all of it is still correct.
