Probably be better off playing 2NL until you're comfortable playing, then play 5NL, etc. It kinda feels like you aren't getting anywhere, but it's a time investment that's well worth it.

I wonder what kind of guide could be written for a new player wanting to play NLHE cash games online with like a $100 starting bankroll, as far as getting PT through one of the free offers, where to play, easy bonuses, etc.

Maybe something for AOK to look into doing
