Play 19-hand poker at 10NL fullring.
Preflop: If you're going to raise with a strong hand (JJ+, AK), 3-5xBB +1xBB per limper. Call with a PP if the amount you're calling is equal to or less than 1/15th of the amount of money you can win in the hand. Call with SCs (76 or better) in MP or later when 2 or 3 people limp behind you.
Postflop: Bet pot postflop in position if nobody has bet and you have a midpair pocket pair or an overpair. Bet pot if you hit trips and there's a draw. Bet pot with TPTK. Check and call given pot odds for all your strong draws.
Join high VPIP with high avgpotsize. Make sure 3/4 of the table has $5 or more with them on the table to make your PPs the most profitable.
Play at fishy sites with good bonuses. Bodog is the new PartyPoker when it comes to 10NL: they accept American players, they make it easy for them to deposit, and they have players that sports gamble more often than they play poker at this level of buy-in.
I played ring for the first time at Bodog 10NL last night and now am up a phenomenal 9 buy-ins after only 3 hours of play. I was running hooottttt, and I followed this strategy perfectly coupled with the PP rule (call preflop if the amount of money you can win in the hand is 15*(theamountyouhavetocall) or more).
This is no fun if you aren't extremely patient. I do homework or work on a website while I do this. If I wasn't doing any of those things I'd be playing my usual SnG: I'm not a ring player.
Reading players is a leak with this many fish in a 10NL game if you join the right table/site. Reading players at this level is only key in a limit game because of how the payoffs work.
There are no poker books (that I know of) for the 10NL level, and there's a reason for that.
I'm an idiot for posting this with so few hands underneath my belt, so ignore me.
