I play 5-10 no limit hold'em 5-6 nights a week and have managed to not go broke in 3 months. Although i have not had a losing month, I am not posting the numbers I want. Ideally I feel I should be able to make 3-4000 a month in this game but have not managed to learn how to win consistently. I am looking for some original advice on how to beat a no limit game of this size consistently., and to indicate what the most common leaks are in a no limit game of this size.

I can't give you any original advice on beating this game, but I would suggest you identify the leaks you have already identified in your game and post them here. You just might get some replies that can improve your bottom line.

NL is a tough game to make money at. The crux of the game is based on finding out people's patterns, and consistancy in betting in your own game. I do make money off NL, but barely. I'm happy if I can sustain my habit without reaching back into my bank account. The other thing is that mistakes can really hurt. You have to set strict +EV guidelines for calling all-ins, and that has to be situational.I think the average NL leak is bluffing too much. My favorite newbie leak is the "poker instincts." "Wow, that 46 just feels right." But if you're winning you are obviously probably past all that.
