Default OK I found the cure

I found the cure to my boredom with online poker. I am going to up the stakes. I purchased $50 into a .25/.50 room tonight. Played for 2 hours. Grinded up to $100 and then walked away. I am going to now continue this strategy for the next week (playing th e.25/.50). I am hoping to build a $2500 bankroll as recommended to me from before. Currently I have $700 for Brick and MOrtar and $300 for Online. Is this a good strategy or is it way too aggressive considering I can only have 6 bad sessions and I am out.

At least im not bored.

I'm sure most people will recommend 20-30x the max buyin for the NL tables.

If you're comfy with the fact that you could go broke quite easily and that you're risking your entire bankroll then carry on and good luck.

I recently stopped playing limit ring games as although I have the bankroll for $2/$4 I was playing scared and therefore not playing properly. Why not try your hand at a few SnG's to build the bankroll?

ok I played a $5 SNG today and placed 1st. I will try and play these more often. But I am still playing $50 sessions in .25/.50 no big crash yet. I will keep you posted.

Online Stack: $111.60
Brick and Mortar Bank Roll: $500
