Well I was thinking about when to actually move beyond the 19. I think I need to get a good sample set of hands (10k) with the 19 just to make sure my numbers (hands played, VPIP etc.) are where they should be. Since "where they should be" seems to be subjective to a few different factors I figured they should at least fall into acceptable range.

From what I have read, noob's biggest mistake seems to be playing too many hands, hence the wisdom of the 19. Though if I am not playing enough (5% played like I saw yesterday) it leaves me to consider what are the next hands in that evolution?

I am already playing all PP's, AA-AJ, KQ, KJ, and QJ. I assume the next couple I would add when I am ready would be AT, JT and maybe T9s?

*edit* As a thought is there any good essays on post-flop-strategy/betting? I found 1 or 2 I thought were informative, but from what I have seen, it seems to be mostly on pot odds and implied odds.

If I thought my pre flop skills were lacking, my post flop skills are a joke. I am still working on betting half pot when I have TPTK, but it takes some balls, learning to allow myself aggressive play seems to be the toughest challenge.

Either way, it is something to consider as I grind out my first 10k.
