  1. I'd like people's input on pre-flop raising in a 1/2 no limit cash game. I play in some games where people will fold to $8 pre-flop and then sometimes six players call $15 with any two cards. I just don't understand the logic of that. How should I adjust my betting to those totally different games to protect my hands? Should I just bet 10-15 everytime and plan on having to hit the flop? But then if I hit the flop, I have to play scared because there is no telling what the other players have.
  2. I am currently playing 1/2 no limit holdem cash games here in Oklahoma at the indian casinos. What should I get my profits up to before I move up to the 2/5 no limit hold em games? And then what should those profits be before I move up to the 5/10 no limit games and so on. I don't keep a "bank roll" because I have money and I'm not living off of my poker winnings. I focus on my profits as far as the game I play. I've been up a couple thousand, but lose it back because I played in games that were too big and would lose my profit in a month due to a bad run. I decided to start at the botto
  3. First of all, I have more than 1,000 dollars. That was just my poker winnings. I never said that I raise with those hands all the time. I take into account position and other people at the table. The answer I was looking for was what game I should be playing in so that I don't lose my profit so fast. I play those games (1/2 and 2/5 no limit) because that is what is offered at casinos. I'm not a big online player because I don't trust it completely so it hasn't really been possible to play the smaller limits. I was curious if the swings in winnings was normal and how I could combat that.
  4. How is raising with what I raise with being outclassed? I may play bad so I was wondering what are typical good raising hands. I know position matters, but I was just wanting some input. The games I were mentioning were 2/5 no limit games. I buy in with 200-300. The max buy ins range from 300-500 with a 100 min. Didn't Daniel write in a post that it is not to your disadvantage to buy in for less than the max? If anyone has a solid strategy for betting no limit cash games, please offer up some advice.
  5. I don't enjoy playing in limit holdem games so my bankroll only allows for the low limit no limit holdem games. I feel like I play pretty well most of the time, but I'm having trouble becoming a consistent winner. I usually get my bankroll up 1,000 and then just when I think I'm doing good, I lose it back down to in the negative. It's very frustrating because I don't feel like I play any different and I always seem to lose after I get my money in with the best hand. Does anyone have any suggestions for managing my bankroll better? I usually buy in for 200-300. I'd consider myself a tigh
