Ok, this is a dumb question.....

Where do micros end? As in the buy in level. So many bingo players at that level. How high up in buy ins for a tourney do yo have to be to wash out most bingo players? What buy in for a ring game?

Have I confused you yet?

I think that last micro stake is 50NL, i don't know about the tourneys but if you wanna avoid donks i think that you can see them in much higher buyins at tourneys than in cash because of satellites and tickets and promotions...

Well i have never played aly level above 10NL so i cant really say but i guess that at every stake there are player who doesnt belong that high and they rely on luck and bingo...

What im strongly believe is moving up in stakes to avoid donks is a bad idea!!!!

Yeah no doubt. I love when the donk shoves his 48 dollar stack with KQ off after I raise with AA :) Oh happy day :)

50NL isn't really considered micros. It's the entry point into small stakes. Micros end around 10NL or 25NL, depending on who you ask.

Not important anyway as it's just semantics. What is important to realize is that fish exist at all stakes. If you can't beat bad players, no matter the stakes, then you don't stand a chance against good players. Don't fall into the misconception that it's easier to beat good players than bad players. The very idea should be absurd to any accomplished poker player.

I wasn't going from the angle of I need to move up to win. I just want to be able to play some real opponents. Play a table where you do have some real fold equity. I have placed in the $10 on demand freerolls three times in past two days. I won a $100 freeroll at BetOnLine with 2200+ players. I placed 25th in another $25 freeroll out of 625. So I think I could move up. Sad part is, no money to bankroll the move. Was asking so I could guesstimate how long it will take to get my bankroll to that level.

You can't expect to go from micro's to million's in a short space of time. Bad beats happen, but that's a good thing! Keep grinding away and eventually your BR will grow. Slow and steady wins the race!

The truth that you're right there are many bingo players a tournament which is difficult and easy at the same time because? because it is easy to detect and bingo players just a matter of waiting for a good hand and can repurchase apart in most tournaments.
