i started playing online in the summer but have been playing live games 6 months prior. As any smart man, i started off with the micro and worked my way up as i got more experience. At first i played at Pokerroom, with like $50 and lost it with in a week. After more practice and i started winnings consitently at the $0.50 and $1.00 NL tables. I would work up a good chip stack over period of time to lose alot of it in 1 or 2 hands, suckouts mainly or a hard beat (trips over trips so many times i lost count). By this point i have noticed a pattern in my "poker career" that i will win quite a bit money but then lose more in that 1-3 hands and eventually have to deposit money again. Its gotten to the point where this happened 5 or 6 times. So in the past say half year ive lost probably $500 of my own job earned money, but lost about $1800 of potential winnings. I never get the feeling like i played the hand bad, i ask myself if i could have played it better but i cant find the answer since that same type of play is correct most of the time. Its annoying to see myself struggle like this. Im sure most of you know where im comming from. All this just makes me 2nd guess myself on alot of big decisions on hands that can equal alot of won or lsot money. Feedback?

It should be difficult to lose your entire bankroll if you are executing proper BR management. Judging by the fact that you've gone broke "5 or 6 times" and that you were playing .50 and $1 NL, you are probably playing out of your bankroll. Check the sticky in this forum.

i was only playing 0.50 and $1.00 when i was up, i know about BR management, i guess not enough. So say i wanted to play $1.00 NL rings, would a bankroll of $500 be too small?

when you say $1.00 NL, do you mean a $1 big blind? if so, yes, that's way too small. I would say $1500 maybe, preferably $2,000

You need at least $1,500 to play 0.50/1.0 No Limit, deposit your money on a site like PokerStars and take advantage of their very low limits (.01/.02 blinds and up)

you need 1500 Big blind for an easy limit( a limit you KILL like 5 NL).
However its highly recommended to have 2500 Big blind for a harder limit like 100 NL. Bad beats happens.
Less than that is putting your bankroll at high risk
