the only reason your BRM matters is that you don't go broke.

And it doesn't matter at all whether you consider yourself a 'beginner' or not, it's just a label.

there's tons of free info in the articles in the beginners sticky, and there's tons of helpful good players who'll help you in this very forum, so if you want to get better at poker just start reading articles and posting your thoughts about certain hands in the forums, or posting some of your own hands. If you listen to ppl's opinion and try to understand their reasoning for certain plays, you'll be crushing in notime.
