Or at the very least feel a sense of competency. I’ve been playing for around a year now and I still don’t feel like I’d be good enough for live poker.
I’m terrible. Hopeless. The worst. Just ask @bill8888.
Then you shouldn’t because they will sense it.

PS I would have been happy to start proper live poker from early 2024 so maybe another 6 months for you. But jump in now at low blinds with an amount you are prepared to lose and you will learn quick

Hi there. If you are seeking competency, it is a long and hard journey. I only played poker for about a year and a half. I have been seeking skills and techniques that are required to be a good player. However, you will hit wall at some stage because other good players might have something that is upper hand than what you have. You must study what helps you at all time. On top of that, you need to practice on hand and seek your own style and skills. I believe all the pro players and top players of the world, they never stop analyzing and study their hands so that it becomes somewhat their second nature. There is no such thing as good player and bad player as long as you know what you are doing. It all comes down to two cards you are holding. Find out what are you going to do with it is the key.
there’s no shortcuts… if u wanna learn to play live poker u gotta play live poker. this place is a first step, next step might be playing some pub poker or find a poker meetup, then on to some low stakes casino/poker rooms. take your time unless u got money to burn. 
Do you understand the basic concepts, such as implied odds, equity, and expected value? If not, educate yourself. Daniel Negreanu has several helpful tutorials and videos where he comments in real time on tournaments he’s playing. I like them not bc I want to model my game on his, but bc he is personable and can speak in layman’s terms. Plus, he’s Canadian.
ps, should have mentioned position and hand selection among the basic concepts.
Six years of replay, 1/3 of a million hands.
Still learning, when someone says they have seen it all. It’s laughable.
You guys have proved that replay is stomping grounds for real life players whose 50 years in casinos, in some cases, cannot keep up with even the modest player on this site…
Players online are chizzled for fast effective domination!!!
