Alright, I've got $50 on stars and regular free time so I've decided to make a serious go at grinding up to some higher stakes. I began playing poker again about 1 week ago, tried taking a shot at 5nl but had to move back down after losing a few buy-ins (I playing like crap). I'm back at 2nl, doing 4-6 tables, so lets see where this goes!

Goal: Rolled for and playing 10nl by June! (is this even realistic?)




Bankroll: $52.03

GL OP.

by "rolled" how many BIs we talking about here? if it's 25 then I'd say if you play solid tight it should be easy. Keep reading and learning and it'll be all good.

making a $150 by june shouldnt be a problem if you develope/play a solid game, you never stated whether you were FR or 6max but read the stickies from the appropriate forum and you shouldnt have a problem beating 2NL

OK, to answer your questions. I am playing FR, playing fairly tight as well. I want to get comfortable with FR before I venture into 6max. As far as my bankroll I am working with 25 buy-ins which is another reason why I'm playing tight in FR.

Anyway, I will update later after tonight's session.
