Default Flying hi and die. Time to get both feet on the ground. ( long )

You may have seen me on 1knl and 2knl on party if you ever watched those tables or took a shot there. You who have seen me, pretty much know how much i have sucked the last month(month's ?). For you who havent, trust me.

My first experience with poker was 3 years ago when i was 16 years old. It was at pacific, playing there 3/6 limit game. It was when 80% of the players really sucked. I mean i wasnt good either but i have always been a fast learner and I had read WLLH by lee jones. One day when i was chatting on the table, someone mentioned partypoker and wanted to sign me up(he was an affiliate). He signed me up and we became friends, he taught me alot about limit poker. Anyway he also was in a proposition program which i joined. This was when i first started making real money. like 2-3k the first month and the payday was bigger and bigger for every month passing.

Now i begun to play NL and reading books about it. It went well and my BR got bigger and bigger. When I was 18 and had a BR of 50k I started playing 5/10 (about 6 months ago). 2 months of rushing and i had a BR just over 100k and decided to move up. Just has predicted i was crushing 10/20 too. So why not dropp out of school, i wasn't doing so well anyway. Im smart, very smart. No doubt about that(dont want to brag just to let you know what i have to work with), But school just wasnt for me.

Yeah you guessed it, about 2 months after i dropped out. Everything started to go downhill. Now looking back, and i mean looking back 6 months when i first started playing 5/10. It wasnt so strange at all. I mean I was partying more than ever. I was spending so much money on junk. I stopped reading my books about poker. I stopped reading 2+2(yeah i have been lurking around but never post anything). I was crushing so why would I need that? I got lazy.

So now tilting about 1-2 months in a row and just running very bad. I have a BR of 12k. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

I am sick of myself for not done this earlier but it have learned important stuff and im sure I will be back.

Now you may be thinking. okey, but wtf am I reading this for. Well i need your help. Im begging for your help. Im Begging for a second chance.

I have bills for 2k every month. I Would like to make somwhere around 5k, because then I can use 3k to live and 2k to build.

Im not gonna take a job, This is my job. Im not going back to school, and im not gonna do as so many ppl in sweden take contribution from the goverment.

1. So what do I need help with. First if you had 12k BR where would you start playing. Im thinking 200nl.

2. I wanna know what WR i can expect at the various levels at mid stakes.

3. When is it time to move up at mid stakes(what BR do i need for the various levels at mid stakes).

4. I am completly new to mid stakes only been reading High(when it was medium-high stakes But iw as so stupid i skipped hands under 5/10), there i love the post made by flawless and fsuplayer. Which posters make the best posts here?

5. What to keep in mind, when moving down from 5/10 to 1/2-2/4?

6. The best sites for mid stakes?
