can win $ 1.30 in freeroll, now playing NL2 climbed to $ 11,
It is not the first time I manage to climb this way.
I'm playing in room 888,
I played and I felt comfortable NL5
Now my question is, it would be very risky climb NL5 or NL10 now?

they recommend making?:confused: :confused: :confused:

Wow, you really need to learn about bankroll management.

You shouldn't even be playing NL2 with only 11$, let alone jumping to NL5 or NL10. You'll bust within the day if you do.

General concensus is to play with at least 30-50 buy-ins for the stakes you're playing.
Even a reasonably aggressive BRM strategy of 25 BIs means that you'll want at least 50+$ for NL2, and you'll want at least 120+$ before taking shots at NL5 (dropping down to NL2 again if you drop below 100$).

11$? You should be playing 0.10$ SnGs, imo.

The probability of going broke is high then you need to start all over again from scratch.I would suggest minimum 20 buy-n for cash game.

I agree with everything the above 3 posters have said.

You need to learn proper BRM (BankRoll Management). You should have a minimum of $400 in your account before you move up to 10NL. Right now, with $11 in your account, you're definitely not rolled to be playing cash games. You should be playing 10c SnG's until there's at least $20 in your account, then you can think about moving up to 50c SnG's. Don't play 2NL until there's at least $80 in your account.

I'm not in agreement for their buyin rules at all especially at the lower levels. I personally feel 20 buyins is enough for cash.

I agree with TimovieMan.
And my suggestion to you is study more about poker Bankroll management. Generally you need to learn more about poker, because i see you are beginner.

What is for sure, you have to keep playing to build a BR, and you have to use what you have to do that. I think BRM will become more important when you have a bigger BR. Right now all you can do is play 2nl cash and the lowest MTTs or sit & gos. I would say that since you won the money from 2nl then keep playing it. But stop being in a hurry to move up. Poker is not a get rich quick game. You have to start at the bottom. GL to you

Recreational players usually dont follow any brm as they only play poker for fun.But if you want to play seriously you must have some sort of brm.

You lost your temper and, as a result, lost a bunch of your money.

You're going to loss sometimes in poker. It's inevitable. But can you see how proper BRM works in these situations? You can lose, but only a small percent of your BR. It's so much easier to handle.

don´t play all your BR in a table that u dont know very well, I recommend that you keep playing NL2 that's where you r good, growing your BR, and simultaneously open a NL5 table to see if you feel comfortable. example: you play 2 tables NL2 and open one of NL5, going testing...:rolleyes:

It is true I have to start doing that, finished to convince me , I think it's a good way to protect your BR
