Move up to where they respect your raises, Ido.

Im gonna stay at .10/.25 until i get to 375-400$ then start .25/.50 with 50bbs max buy-in 25$..right now im at 188$ going up steady! playing 6-8 tables comfortably..

I hope you're only a recreational player.

If you're intending to play only 50bb tables then your plan is fine. If you intend to play for 100bb+ tables at some point then I would start the actual game plan now.. Otherwise when you actually become rolled for 50NL+ you will probably get knocked down so hard.

The fact that you play with half your BR on the table tells me that you will most likely crash and burn. One good tilty session and half your roll is gone.

I only 2 table 6 max and 1 table HU and I waited till I had almost a grand before I moved up to 50nl and alot of people will say that I moved up to soon. your graph showed 500 hands for a lot of guys here that is only a couple of hours of session time. You will run well for a day or a week and than run bad for a day or a week. Good BR management skills will allow you to weather the downswings instead of loosing your roll and having to reload.

Buying in short is a viable strategy, just realize as you move up people better understand ways counter the buying in short strategy and your variance will go up

Don't go to the .5/.10 tables, its just full of donkeys getting lucky. You watch them play and say "this is going to be easy" especially after watching them play others at the table and after the river they show 52os. They'll call you're all-ins when others wouldnt, and you'll see they had terrible hands and they beat you. Its the worst feeling.

I'd start with micro cash games and build up from there. That's how I built my bankroll.
