Wow. So where do I start..Well so a month ago, I decided to give online poker a try. I put in 50 dollars to full tilt, without having read anything on this forum. So first, I didn't sign up for rakeback programs. Secondly, Where did I go? Straight to the 1/2. First hand I got dealt online was pocket AAs. So I oh so subtley went all in. Got 2 callers my first hand Pocket kings and someone with AK. tripled my money. First hand. I played some more and more after I hit a couple hundred bucks, I kept going into higher stakes. I thought I was the next Doyle Brunson. I cashed out after about a good 3500 dollars in only 2 weeks. Paid off my motorcycle loan and put the rest in a mutual fund. I went back, thinking I could take all of Daniel Negraneu's money with 2 7 offsuit and went in for 500 for some of the high stakes tables. Needless to say I lost around 2 grand, which means, I suppose, that i'm still up...but it was...awakening. I read as much as I could on the topic of poker and I found this site. Now after my extremely long post my question is this:
Where do I start?
I deposited another 50 dollars, but i'm now hesistant to even sit at a table. I read up on the bankroll building stuff, but i'm not familar with the jargon. My bankroll should be 25 times the buy in? Isn't that a little excessive?
