Default I suck

First day moving up to .10/.25 tables... I went positive 23 real fast, then slowly lost it over time and now I'm 7 under. Wow... I suck.

Like I was playing .01/.02 heads up and I went from 2.00 to 7.00... then a guy who doesnt' even know how to autopost blind comes in and cleans me out. I am so depressed... lol. I should have quit when I had the chance. -_- lost 34 bucks, this better not be a bad omen.

Go to sleep and dont rush to the 0.1-0.25 until you are 100% you are ready. I started with 50$ and i was playing only on pennies until i reached 70$. Then i was playing those 20$ on 0.1-0.25 and of course losing them becauce i was lacking experience. This happened like 10 times until i finally started winning. Try it but be sure that you can win on pennies without problems so you wont need to cash in more money.

Yeah, I was initially going to do that, but when iggs gave me a 5$ bonus on his return to me, I decided to try the .10/.25 tables with it, and won big. I kept winning and got to +23. Then I was like "heck, it's all profit" but lost it all. Then after one last try, I went all in and lost again, making me down more. I had broke even when I was winning at the heads-up, and got greedy and lost big. Back to the pennies I guess. Sigh.

Everything is experience trust me, try different ways to play and you will find your way. I personally slowplayed everything on pennies and give up every pot if someone raised me big unless i had the nuts or close to it. I really think its better to slowplay. Most ppl there think that because you betted on the turn you have just the pair on the turn. And dont get into those stupid raising games when 2 ppl raise 0.02$ X 5 times and you end up paying 0.1 to see the flop with A 10o. Generally avoid raising pre-flop. And patience

Dont worry klogon it normally takes losses before you get used to them, or atleast thats what i heard from everyone else when they started out.
