Hey! Good luck on improving your game. I just wanted to mention that if you want to hear opinion about how you played your hands, you are always welcome to post them in Hand Evaluations BSS until 0.05/0.10 section, PS hand judges will take a look and write their opinion. That's really useful to understand some leaks and fix them.
Cheers!

Hey guys,Is there anyone out there who has beaten NL2 FR ?!!?!?!?!!?
Is it only me that is such a noob or what ? whenever I decide to go all-in there are all kind of hands against me from 82o to AA what can I do ?!
Any advices are welcome. I really consider switching to NL2 SH. I just cant seem to find a way to beat this game. I just keep losing, no matter what type I choose to play.
Hi mate,
Dont switch to SH. The variance is considerably bigger here than at FR.
And btw, I beat NL2 over about 24k hands with 12bb/100h (both FR and SH).
And yeah, posting hands to evaluations forum is gonna help you A LOT.
Good luck man
Hi all,

I know that I have to play for the long term, for the correct play and if I put enough volume results will come, however I am human and when I put in some effort I would love to see some results... not just suckouts.
If you add the fact that I am not the best player in the world and I make mistakes myself ... I am ... kind of frustrated now.
Those are some horrible bad beats
I know you will have heard it before but just keep playing like that and you WILL make a profit
In each of those hands you got your money in whilst you were ahead so you have just been unlucky.
Also, as people have said, try posting your hands in the Hand Evaluation forums, the hands you are unsure about
