In fact, there is nothing complicated in quickly learning to play poker from scratch and independently. All that is needed is a good source with structured information, where you can get all the necessary knowledge, at any stage of becoming a professional poker player.

Watch a few live game videos and try and understand how the professionals play, One of the first things I noticed, was that they don't get involved in every hand, having the same chips when you start a game is imperative to protect them and you need to understand the different hand strengths, Getting to see a flop in every dealt hand is just a drain on your chips, which you cannot afford. So most of the time you will see Fold after Fold, even from the best players.
Be selective in which hands you want to see a flop with like Most Pocket Pairs and High suited Connectors to begin with, but be ready to fold if you don't get a Good flop you can work with, Even the best starting hands can lose against a Small Pocket Pair if you don't hit it and they do. Play very cautiously at first and once you become more proficient in the game you will start to bring more and more different hands into the mix.
Doyle Brunson's Signature hand was 10/2 He won two World Series with that hand, So they actually named the hand after him, but I am not Doyle and although on some occasions I have won pots with that hand I normally fold it if I haven't had to stake a blind beforehand.
I would also suggest playing a few Fun games on Facebook or other game sites that play for fun money or better still some freerolls, Sure it is a totally different game when it comes to playing for real money, but it gives you a start if you know nothing about the game, and it costs you nothing.
Check out "Become a winning Poker Player in 30 Days" here on this site and get a good understanding on each lesson before you move onto the next, and you can become a competent player in no time.
Poker is a passion that some players get effected by, I was one, but saying that I don't believe it has cost me anything including relationships to play a game I enjoy, being sensible in how you approach the game, having full control over my bankroll, goes a long way and I can honestly say I have never lost a Penny playing On-line Poker!
Good Luck!
