For kfaess,

I think that 50k hands would be a lil bit of overkill for all levels except maybe 25nl. I beat 2nl (starting at $10 finishing at $100) in 22k hands, 5nl in 15k hands (I may have moved up a little too soon (i had 20 BI's tho...) but it worked out) and I'm almost to the point where I can move up to 25nl at 22k hands at 10nl. I'll definitely be spending some time at 25nl tho.
