I started w/$10 last week brought it up to $88 in a week.Now im playing .1/.25 nl holdem until i bring it up to $200, then start playing .25/.5. I just seem to win when the pressure is on half my bankroll.(btw i dont play with my whole bankroll at one table, that just seems stupid to me)

it just forces you to play smart... just pretend its for all your money and play the proper limits as solidly and you wont have to worry about going broke

No matter how smart you play, numbers don't lie, they just catch up with you as the low margin of error proves itself. You're giving yourself no margin of consequence, let alone error. You have $88. Play $10 games. You're gonna lose it all and it'll happen over the span of a couple of days. I'll guarantee it.

I started with $50 and played Nl10 to start off with and never went broke.
I think at low limits BR management is less crucial because the players are soooo bad.I wanna live till I die. No more. No less.

actually, this would be more crucial, because you get more marginal calls, thus more varience.
