- Move UP one level when you have over 30 buyins (no limit) and move DOWN one level when you have less than 10 buyins.

Lets say I have $1500, so I have 30 buyins for NL50. Now I am a really bad player and drop to 10 buyins. Now I have $500 left, which wouldn't be enough for NL25.
I would move down earlier. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I would hope a player unsure of his abilities would start a few limits down from NL50 [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
I understand what you are saying but I came up with that rule as a means of initially finding the limit that best suits your skill level. I do feel it's good practice to continue to follow this rule to some degree once your bankroll is more stable.
