Default How long to grind through the micros?

Hello.

How long did it take everyone to grind through the micros 0.01c/0.02c upto c.NL$100? Just curious.

Cheers,

Matt.

Dont bother imo. Get a job, work, Deposit 500$ and play NL25 if you are good enough.

But fwiw it took me around 25days and 55k hands to go from NL25 to NL100.

does getting to NL100 mean getting to 2500$?

25xBuy-in is the comfort spot to move up, so yes. Of course you can do it earlier.

I was beating NL$100 for about 8ptbb/100 over last 50k so hopefully shouldnt take too long.

Will be reasonably aggro with BR probably c.15 buyins for each level i think.

How long you reckon from 1c/2c?

I deposited 600 and started at 25NL to get the maximun bonus at FTP.
I figured the bonus money + rakeback would be a good cushion vs my donkish play [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

From a BR point of view I could actually move up from 50 to 100NL but since I'm not happy with my PTBB/100 I'll finish this month playing 50NL and build up some backup money.
After that month I'm not sure what I'll do other than wade through my PT DB and analyze what I do wrong.
I'll probably 4 table 100NL to concentrate more and actively work on improvin my game. I won't move up beyound 100NL untill I beat that level at 5PTBB/100

Ive been all the way to 200nl and back - It takes as long as it takes... depends how much effort you put in etc. Its not a race dude.
