No limit allows a donkey to be a donkey all-in with Ax every few hands.

I love all of the informative responses guys!! Awesome!!

Answering the OPs question. From a BRM stand point you wouldn't want to jump to NL until you had ~$80. This would allow for a 100bb buy in at .02/.04 NL and only be risking 5% of your BR. That is the typical standard. Having said that, if you were to grind your way up to $80 that would be a comfortable BR for .10/.20 limit holdem (~300 Big Bets is the standard for BRM). So you would be playing on a higher stake level at limit than you would by jumping to no limit. .02/.04 being level 1, .05/.10 level 2, .10/.20 level 3, etc. From experience it's much easier to build a BR playing limit holdem than it is to play NL. The swings aren't as large in limit if you have an edge over the competition. Consistency is key and you'll see steady gains if you can consistently play better than the opponents.

I would also suggest trying to play some of the PO freerolls to help pad the BR. This will also help with the NL fix you are seeking.

I would suggest dumping the limit game and go str8 to no limit. Limit is an excellent choice for higher stakes, but at micro your BR will probably get banged around like a pinball acheiving small gains for time committed.

I believe in a very conservative bankroll system. A proper buy-in would be 100x the big blind = $4. The buy in should only be 5% of your bankroll = $80 before jumping into a .02/.04 NL cash game.

I would wait until i got to 10 before i moved up. always make sure you have plenty of bankroll before moving to the next level.

Try 5 bucks, but if you start losing really quick, go back to limit hold em', or 11 cent sngs.
