Default what I did

I made a promise to myself that I would only commit once to a BR, I commited $100..

I moved to 0.05/0.1 when I hit $300, I set stop-losses at $50..i.e If I fell below $250 I would move back to 0.01/0.02.. I am doing exactly the same thing now moving up..

You actually learn so much at the lower limits.. I spent four months on play money and it was only after three months that things began to click.. It is not only about learning..it is about instinct, I make a bet now because I have made it hundreds of times before.. I am prepared to lose.. and can live with that bet.. only experience.. not posts on BB .. can teach you that..

EVERY time I move up .. I make a loss.. I learn new stuff... and that costs me...I put that projected loss into my bank roll and live with it...

As for SNG's. I thnk most ppl know that my prejudice is agianst them.. I don't think you learn/play poker in them...

So, in my opinion, you should stick with it,.. you will be screaming to get out of the pennies at the end.. BUT..you will know that you can get a return of 20BB/100 if you ever need to..
