I am sure everyone here has had 4 losing sessions in a day. Thats where bankroll management comes into play. I however am more interested in making money. Making 600 in a day is great. Making 600 each day is tougher...

It's okay, I'll just step up my game and win the VIP Gold $100,000 freeroll in a couple days.

you can be the best player in the world, but in order to even stand a tiny chance to be successful at 1/2 you need to have AT LEAST 4k in your bankroll.
you WILL lose hands, and you WILL lose stacks w/ great hands. bankroll management will help you overcome shortterm variance.
dont pretend you are better than the avg 1/2 player. you very probably arent when you dont get these simple, basic poker concepts.

ok seriously, you guys are all [censored]

to OP (motifesta) i am not trying to be an ass so bear with me
i dont care what you think, DO NOT PLAY 1,2 NL WITH $200
no matter how good you are it will be a fluke if you succeed from this point

if i literally had to build up a roll i would put 500 on and play 50NL... for multiple reasons though i think you should start at 25NL with $500

also, this may be the hardest part for you but you kind of need to stop worrying about the $$ and concentrate on making the right play, im positive given what you have said so far in this thread that you dont understand alot of fundamental concepts that we all take for granted-->READ SSNL

and finally i would imagine that a big leak for you, given the # of tables you are likely playing and your feelings about walking away down from a session is that you have WIN EVERY POT SYNDROME-this needs to be fixed bc even 50NL guys can adjust to aggro monkeys

either way gl man...poker can be great for you, but unless you change what i just mentioned along with a bunch of other things it will more likely than not be bad for you

Seriously? $4k? Thats like saying don't walk into a casino without 4k in your wallet to play the lowest limit tables they have. I understand your point though.
