I used to play live only, and have been doing so for about 7-8 years, without really falling into the negative $'s.
I have started playing online about 1yr ago, I started with a few small deposits on pokerstars, and eventually ended up with a grand total of 829$ lost ( despite winning 581$ from tournaments )
I consider myself a better player than what I had been doing online, hence, I started going down in buy-ins.
What I am wanting to ask really, would you guys recommend me to stick to freerolls until I get more of a feel of online poker ? Or should I head to some x$ buy-ins to avoid "learning" wrong because of all the "bad" players that play in them ?
So far, my best results were : ( From one extreme to the other )
1st out of 3300 in a 100K Privilege Freeroll ( 1000$ prize pool )
6th out of 66 in a 55$ buy-in 2.5K Gtd ( 3300$ prize pool )
however, at the buy-ins I usually play live ( 5$ to 15$ ) I can not seem to consistently rank in the top 2-3% where the good money is.
Thanks in advance for any replies.
