i'm still playing $50 PLO and HUNL on a 60 BI roll becuase i feel like i'm still learning some things so you're not crazy, it just seemed strange on the surface.
I feel like I am close to being at a spot where I have a plan of action for everything, but right now I still have periods where I find myself saying "why did I just do that?" and until those moments become virtually non-existent, I don't want to jump to levels where the regs are a higher frequency. I could have just jumped to 50nl to start and skipped 25nl, but I wanted to test myself and my drive, because in past attempts to cash games, I gave up right away and went back to MTTs. I have around 70BI for 50nl right now, and I'd like to play 50nl until I have 50BI for 100nl, then play a bit more at 50nl and cash out whatever I win over the 50BI so I have some cash to live on for awhile.Basically I am a spoiled kid who was blessed to have parents pay for all my essentials like rent, insurance, gas, food, so off that basis, I am playing now to be able to afford stuff for myself like spring break trip for my g/f and I, nicer computer, and any other "Wants" I may have.I'd love to get to a point where I could play and make a decent income where I can live fully off of poker, and I feel since I have 2 more years in college, I am in no rush to get to the point where I play high enough for an income to live off of. I'd like to do it the right way now, so when the time comes when I am off on my own financially, I have the skills it takes to support myself through poker (if I choose poker over Accounting)

So on Saturday night, a friend from Thunder Bay was staying at some ski resort an hour west of Ottawa, so I decided to go hang out with him and naturally get shit-faced.We end up at some bar with a total of 6 people inside, all getting drunk, so we have a good time.The next morning, I wake up, and my wallet is nowhere to be found. I had it at one point because I paid for a shit ton of booze at the bar. Anyways, I needed to get home because I promised my gf a ride to work in the morning.So I get home, drive her to work, come home and pass out. I wake up a bit worried, so I instantly cancel my credit card and debit card, and then think a bit, and phone that bar and see if they found it, which they did. Ok, that's good. But now I've canceled all my access to money, my gf is at work for 12 hours, there's no food in the house, and the bank is closed because it's Sunday.Well, **** me, I'm hungry. Naismith offers to buy me a pizza online, so that takes care of that problem. Thanks a lot.Anyways, now it's Monday, and I go to the bank, get my new debit card, and decide to drive out to that bar. For some reason they have a website, and it shows they're open from 11 am. So I drive out there, like a 70 minute drive, and obv it's closed because of their new "winter hours". Sighhhhh.FML.

LMAO, who the **** cancels their credit cards, etc without first calling the place where you last had your wallet? LOL.
Well, it was all a blur, I'm surprised it was there in the first place.The bar was pretty seedy, so even if I knew it was there, I wouldn't be able to pick it up immediately anyways, so I would probably still have canceled them before, since I wasn't letting that shit sit there for a couple days or so.IMO.

I'm mainly a tournament/sng player, but I was looking to venture into the online cash games a little. I was wondering what the BR requirements were for the different levels or how many buy-ins you want to have before you start playing the cash games. I didn't know if this was the right place to put this question but I see most of the hands in here are for cash games so I figured someone could answer this or point me in the right direction to find the answer.
hi, what everbody else saidand your SN tilts me. have a good day
