After moving my "roll" to FTP, I got it up to 78. Then I realized I had no interest in online poker. I just didn't feel like playing. Also, FTP's software put me on tilt by looking at it.

I have been playing live a little bet, and have done really well. I doubled my $50 in a tough .25/.50 game, turned my $20 into 50(3 outer prevented 70) in a .20/.40 game, and $20 into $35 in a .10/.20 game. I was making a lot of plays at the .10/.20 game and donked off 15 bucks because it didn't seem like much. I still play too scared .20/.40+ but a little stupid at .10/.20. I hope it's because the .20/.40+ game is tough, because no one plays .15/.30 lol.

I recently got transferred $20 on stars so I could play some non stressful poker. The problem with that is that it's just kinda boring playing straight up ABC poker so I look for tables with ultra LAG donks. At what level can I actually start making plays? From the small experience I have from NL50, there appears to be some play there, but I was playing on somewhat scared money. Any input would be appreciated.

play pokerstars, play really low stakes

u want 20 buyins for your current stake

i don't know much about u, but it seems like u are in degen mode atm... i wouldnt suggest online poker as a good idea, but if its something u want to do u should start off at the lowest stakes, if u can beat them over 100k hands u are set to start working on your game

the reason i suggest the 100k hand goal is because it will develop discipline required to succeed past your current stage in poker

u cant really just jump into nl50, u will do so many things wrong and cost yourself money.. also.. u will go broke really quickly using like 1 buyin double ups

even tho it may seem like bullshit, playing 1c/2c and learning to deal with the retarded things that happen will make u a better player.. plus, even with a shitload of leaks.. if u are aggressive enough you can make $20/day easily at that limit and sometimes like $60 ($5 buyin)

if poker is dangerous to them i would rank sports betting as a Kodiak grizzly bear who smells blood after you just threw a javelin into his cub - RaiNKhAN
